Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 Spotted Testing in India For the First Time Ahead of Launch

Royal Enfield’s highly anticipated electric motorcycle, the Flying Flea C6, has been spotted testing on Indian roads for the first time, marking a major step towards its market debut. Expected to launch in 2026, the Flying Flea C6 blends classic Royal Enfield styling with modern electric mobility solutions. Even with its heavy camouflage, the motorcycle spotted on test runs shows a strong resemblance to the prototype revealed earlier this year. Internally codenamed Electrik01, this upcoming electric bike is built on Royal Enfield’s freshly developed “L” platform, which will also serve as the backbone for the company’s future electric two-wheelers. Although official mechanical details remain under wraps, the C6 is rumoured to offer performance similar to the brand’s 350cc models, targeting city riders and daily commuters. The Flying Flea C6 represents Royal Enfield’s first foray into the EV segment.
