Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 electric motorcycle launches in Europe and UK at EUR 5,990 with deliveries from October 2026 after its Bengaluru debut.
Royal Enfield's electric mobility brand Flying Flea has entered its first international markets, launching the C6 electric motorcycle across five European cities, Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Berlin and London, with bookings now open at EUR 5,990 in Europe and GBP 5,300 in the UK. Deliveries are scheduled to begin from October 2026.
The European expansion follows the motorcycle's India debut in Bengaluru in April 2026 at Rs 2.79 lakh (ex-showroom), where buyers can also opt for a Battery-as-a-Service route that lowers the upfront price to Rs 1.99 lakh. Eicher Motors Managing Director B. Govindarajan said early Indian customers have covered more than 100,000 customer-ridden kilometres in just three months, giving the company confidence to expand.
| Market | Price | Claimed Range Cycle | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| India (Bengaluru) | Rs 2.79 lakh (Rs 1.99 lakh with BaaS) | 154 km IDC | On sale since April 2026 |
| Europe (5 cities) | EUR 5,990 (about Rs 6.58 lakh) | 104 km WMTC | Bookings open, deliveries Oct 2026 |
| UK (London) | GBP 5,300 (about Rs 6.79 lakh) | 104 km WMTC | Bookings open, deliveries Oct 2026 |
The C6 is powered by a 3.91 kWh lithium-ion battery in a magnesium alloy casing, paired with a motor producing 15.4 kW of peak power and 60 Nm of torque. Top speed is 115 kmph, and the bike weighs 124 kg. Charging from 20 to 80 percent takes just over 60 minutes on a standard 16-amp wall outlet, which the company says translates to roughly a kilometre of range per minute of charging.
Design cues come from the original Flying Flea motorcycles of the 1940s, executed with a forged-aluminium exoskeleton frame and a girder fork. The motorcycle runs Fleaware OS, an adaptation of Android Automotive OS, with over-the-air updates, connected navigation and rider personalisation, alongside lean-angle ABS and traction control.
The C6 was developed by over 200 engineers across India and the UK with more than 45 patent applications, and has picked up the Red Dot Award 2025 and iF Design Award 2026. Royal Enfield has indicated the C6 is only the first model in a wider electric pipeline, with the city-by-city rollout strategy continuing through dedicated Flying Flea retail outlets.
