Royal Enfield has begun accepting reservations for the Flying Flea C6 electric motorcycle in Europe and the United Kingdom, with deliveries set to begin in October 2026. The launch comes at a price of €5,990 in Europe and £5,300 in the United Kingdom, with a relatively small battery and a European range of 104 kilometers.
Royal Enfield has begun expanding the launch of its Flying Flea electric brand beyond India, opening reservations for the C6 in Europe and the United Kingdom. The price is €5,990 in European markets and £5,300 in the United Kingdom, while deliveries are expected to begin in October 2026.
The initial European launch includes Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Berlin, and London, according to local Indian sources. This marks the C6’s transition from a product aimed primarily at the Indian market to an electric motorcycle targeting major Western markets, although the company has not yet announced a date or price for the U.S. market.
Key specifications
The Flying Flea C6 uses a 3.91-kilowatt-hour battery and a motor with a maximum output of 15.4 kilowatts, equivalent to 20.6 horsepower, with torque reaching 60 newton meters. Its top speed is 115 kilometers per hour.
The European model has a rated range of 104 kilometers under the WMTC standard. The source notes that this figure is considerably lower than the range claimed under India’s national standard, and it may also be higher than the range the motorcycle achieves in real-world use. The motorcycle weighs 124 kilograms, while charging the battery from 20 to 80% takes approximately 65 minutes.
What justifies the price?
The new prices place the C6 above several Chinese electric motorcycles that may offer larger batteries and greater power for the same money. However, evaluating the motorcycle does not depend on the specification sheet alone; its equipment includes a forged aluminum frame, a magnesium battery cover, a girder-style front suspension, and belt drive.
The motorcycle also includes lean-sensitive ABS, traction control, and a connected electronics package described as relatively advanced. Offering it through a well-known manufacturer and a dealer and service network adds to the ownership equation compared with importing a low-cost motorcycle from an unknown manufacturer, along with the potential difficulty of obtaining replacement parts or support later.
What does the launch mean for other markets?
The arrival in Europe and the United Kingdom shows that Flying Flea has moved from the display and interest stage to an actual export product. This does not guarantee a near-term launch in the United States, but the brand’s U.S. website says that prices will be announced later, meaning the market remains among its potential plans.
The C6’s suitability for the U.S. market remains an open question; the motorcycle is lightweight and intended for urban use, while the U.S. motorcycle market has historically leaned toward larger models more reliant on highways. Therefore, if the motorcycle reaches the United States, it will likely be positioned closer to a lightweight premium-priced urban electric motorcycle than a low-cost budget option.
