Flying Flea C6 to debut in March 2026
According to B. Govindarajan, the Flying Flea C6 is scheduled to launch in India around March 2026. This aligns with Royal Enfield’s broader “Spring 2026” global rollout plan.
As part of its international strategy, the company will introduce the motorcycle in Europe first, followed by the Indian launch shortly thereafter. Indian deliveries are expected to begin by mid-2026.
This approach mirrors Royal Enfield’s earlier rollout strategy for the Interceptor 650, where an overseas debut preceded domestic availability.
C6 design and positioning
The Flying Flea C6 is positioned as the “Classic” model within Royal Enfield’s electric portfolio. Its design draws inspiration from the original Flying Flea motorcycle of the 1940s and stands apart from conventional electric two-wheelers.
A notable feature is the forged aluminium girder fork at the front, a layout that separates steering and suspension functions. Royal Enfield has indicated that this setup is intended to improve ride quality rather than serve as a purely visual reference.
The motorcycle is built around a magnesium battery case that functions as a stressed member of the frame, helping keep overall weight in check. While official range figures have not yet been disclosed, the C6 is expected to offer performance comparable to a 125cc–150cc petrol motorcycle, targeting urban commuting rather than long-distance touring.
The C6 will also feature modern rider aids, including traction control and cornering ABS, reinforcing its premium positioning.
Scrambler-style S6 to follow in 2027
The second model under the Flying Flea banner will be the S6, which adopts a scrambler-inspired design. While it shares the same battery and motor platform as the C6, the S6 will feature longer-travel suspension, wire-spoke wheels and a flat bench seat, making it more suitable for uneven road conditions.
Royal Enfield has confirmed that the S6 will arrive roughly a year after the C6, placing its launch around Spring 2027.
Expected pricing and market context
Royal Enfield has indicated that the Flying Flea range is not intended as a mass-market electric offering. Industry expectations suggest the Flying Flea C6 could be priced between Rs 2.50 lakh and Rs 3.00 lakh (ex-showroom), positioning it above mainstream electric scooters and within a niche premium segment.
This strategy comes at a time when electric two-wheeler growth in India remains heavily scooter-led. While overall EV two-wheeler sales continue to rise, motorcycles still account for a smaller share of electric volumes, underlining both the opportunity and the challenge Flying Flea will face.
What it means for buyers
For Indian buyers, the Flying Flea range represents Royal Enfield’s first serious entry into electric mobility, focused on design, heritage and premium urban use rather than outright affordability or volume.
Conclusion- Royal Enfield Flying Flea Electric Bikes
With a confirmed launch window for the Royal Enfield Flying Flea Electric Bikes, with Flying Flea C6 in March 2026 and the S6 to follow in 2027, Royal Enfield has laid out a clear roadmap for its electric ambitions.
More details on specifications and pricing are expected closer to launch, as the company prepares to introduce its first electric motorcycles to Indian roads.
