- Royal Enfield's Flying Flea C6 opened bookings in Europe at €5,990 and in the UK at £5,300, with deliveries set for October across Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Berlin, and London.
- The C6 packs a 3.91 kWh battery, a 15.4 kW (20.6 hp) peak motor producing 60 Nm of torque, tops out at 115 km/h, and carries a European WMTC range rating of 104 km (65 miles) — a much lower figure than its India-standard range.
- At 124 kg, the C6 is significantly lighter than most full-size electric motorcycles, with a 20–80% charge taking roughly 65 minutes thanks to the small pack.
- Royal Enfield is selling the C6 as a premium product, highlighting a forged-aluminum frame, magnesium battery case, girder front suspension, belt drive, lean-angle-sensitive ABS and traction control, and a connected electronics suite.
- At nearly €6,000, the C6 undercuts few rivals on raw spec — Chinese electric motorcycles offer more battery and power for less — putting the brand's dealer network and build quality front and center.
- Flying Flea has no US launch date or pricing yet; the American website simply says pricing will be announced later.
Why it matters: At nearly €6,000, the Flying Flea C6 costs more than Chinese rivals that offer more battery and power for less — Royal Enfield is selling European urban riders on its dealer network, build quality, and brand cachet rather than raw specs. The European rollout makes a US launch look considerably more plausible, though no date has been set.
