Royal Enfield has expanded the colour lineup of its first electric motorcycle, the Flying Flea C6, with a new Parachute White finish. The new shade joins the existing Flea Green and Storm Black options.
The Parachute White version gets a warm white body with contrasting black and blue detailing. Apart from the new colour, the motorcycle continues with the same electric powertrain and equipment. It uses a 3.91 kWh battery, offers a claimed IDC range of 154 km and has a claimed top speed of 115 kmph.
Flying Flea C6 Design
The Flying Flea C6 has a distinctive design inspired by Royal Enfield’s original Flying Flea motorcycle from the 1940s. Instead of following a conventional electric motorcycle design, the C6 combines its historical inspiration with modern engineering.
The motorcycle features an exposed forged-aluminium exoskeleton, a finned magnesium battery enclosure, a circular display and distinctive girder-style front suspension. Its frame uses a weld-free construction approach, while the compact rear section keeps the overall bodywork minimal.
The combination of these elements gives the C6 a distinct appearance while retaining the lightweight character associated with the original Flying Flea.
3.5-Inch TFT Display and Connected Features
The motorcycle gets a centrally positioned 3.5-inch circular colour TFT touchscreen that runs on Royal Enfield’s Fleaware OS. Although the display retains a classic round shape, it incorporates several connected and digital functions.
The Flying Flea C6 comes with phone-as-key functionality, navigation, app connectivity, cruise control, an electronic handlebar lock, remote tip-over alerts and location sharing.
Other functions include bi-directional crawl mode and auto-hold. The storage compartment also features 27W USB-C charging and 15W Qi-compatible wireless charging, allowing riders to charge compatible devices while travelling.
Battery, Range and Performance
The Flying Flea C6 is powered by a permanent magnet synchronous motor producing a claimed 15.4 kW of peak power and 60 Nm of torque.
The motorcycle can reach a claimed top speed of 115 kmph. Its 3.91 kWh lithium-ion battery provides a claimed IDC range of 154 km.
The battery pack uses 224 laser-welded NCA cells and is housed inside a magnesium casing.
Suspension and Braking Hardware
The Flying Flea C6 uses a distinctive suspension setup at both ends. At the front, it gets a girder-linkage hydraulic twin suspension system with 100 mm of travel.
The rear uses a direct-acting monoshock with an internal floating piston, offering 110 mm of travel.
Braking hardware includes a 260 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc. The motorcycle is equipped with dual-channel ABS, which comes with three sensitivity settings for electronic braking assistance.
With the introduction of Parachute White, the Flying Flea C6 now offers another colour choice while retaining its existing electric motor, battery, technology and hardware package.
