Royal Enfield has expanded its electric mobility brand, Flying Flea, to Hyderabad, making it the second Indian city after Bagaluru to offer the Flying Flea C6 electric motorcycle.
The company has set up four customer touchpoints across the city, giving buyers easy access to sales, service, and after-sales support. Priced at Rs. 2.79 lakh ex-showroom, the C6 is one of the most premium electric motorcycles in India, combining neo-retro styling with modern electric technology.
Hyderabad’s expansion includes one company owned store and three dealership outlets, ensuring that customers across the city can experience the C6 firsthand. With a claimed 154 km IDC range, 115 kmph top speed and over 400 Nm wheel torque, the Flying Flea C6 is not just another electric bike – it is a statement.
The Four Hyderabad Touchpoints
Royal Enfield has adopted a hub and spoke model for Hyderabad, with one central hub providing specialisation and three spoke centres for routine servicing and maintenance.
Outlet Location Role
Company Store Erragadda Main Road Technical hub, specialised support
Taurus Motors Vanasthalipuram Sales and routine servicing
Bolt Motorcycles LLP Hi-Tech City Sales and routine servicing
SVR Motors Kondapur Sales and routine servicing
The Erragadda company store acts as the main hub providing advanced diagnostics, battery support and technical expertise. The three spoke centres in Vanasthalipuram, Hi-Tech City and Kondapur deal with day to day servicing ensuring that customers do not have to travel far for maintenance.
The Powertrain: 3.91 kWh Battery, 21 bhp and 400+ Nm Wheel Torque
The Flying Flea C6 is powered by a 3.91 kWh lithium ion battery paired with a permanent magnet synchronous motor that produces 15.4 kW (21 bhp) and 60 Nm of motor torque. Thanks to the direct drive system, the wheel torque exceeds 400 Nm, providing the C6 with instant acceleration and a thrilling ride.
Key Performance Figures:
Battery: 3.91 kWh Lithium Ion
Motor Power: 15.4 kW (21 bhp)
Motor Torque: 60 Nm
Wheel Torque: Over 400 Nm
Top Speed: 115 kmph
0-60 kmph: 3.7 seconds
Kerb Weight: 124 kg
Claimed Range: 154 km (IDC)
The C6 uses a carbon belt drive instead of a traditional chain, reducing maintenance and noise. The bike also features cornering ABS, traction control, cruise control and voice assist, making it one of the most technologically advanced electric motorcycles in India.
Charging: Rapid, Standard and Trickle Modes
The Flying Flea C6 supports three charging modes, giving buyers flexibility based on their needs:
Rapid Charging: For quick top-ups when you’re in a hurry.
Standard Charging: For regular overnight charging.
Trickle Charging: For slow, safe charging using a standard 16A socket.
The ability to charge via a standard household socket is a major advantage as it eliminates the need for special charging infrastructure, making the C6 accessible to buyers who do not have access to fast charging stations.
The Design: Neo-Retro Meets Modern
The Flying Flea C6 draws inspiration from the original 1940s Flying Flea motorcycle, giving it a unique neo-retro look. However, this is a thoroughly modern electric bike.
Design Highlights:
Round LED Headlamp: Classic retro look with modern LED technology.
TFT Touchscreen Display: Controlled by a joystick, with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 4G connectivity.
Keyless Start: Using your smartphone or a key fob.
NFC Technology: For secure, contactless access.
Three Colour Options: Storm Black, Flea Green and Parachute White.
The C6’s lightweight design (124 kg) provides agility and handling in city traffic, while the low centre of gravity ensures stability at higher speeds.
Pricing and Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS)
The Flying Flea C6 is priced at Rs. 2.79 lakh ex-showroom in Hyderabad. However, Royal Enfield is also offering a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option, which reduces the upfront cost to Rs. 1.99 lakh.
Pricing Options:
Full Purchase: Rs. 2.79 lakh ex-showroom (includes battery).
BaaS Option: Rs. 1.99 lakh ex-showroom (battery rented on a monthly basis).
The BaaS model is ideal for buyers that want a lower upfront cost and are not averse to paying a monthly subscription for the battery. This model also protects buyers from battery degradation costs as Royal Enfield handles battery maintenance and replacement.
Why Hyderabad?
Hyderabad is one of India’s fastest growing cities with an established tech savvy population and a budding EV ecosystem. The city’s infrastructure, including charging stations and service networks, makes it an ideal market for electric motorcycles.
Royal Enfield’s decision to expand to Hyderabad after Bengaluru shows the company’s confidence in the C6’s potential. With over 100,000 km already accumulated by registered vehicles in Bengaluru, the C6 has proven its reliability and performance.
The Bottom Line: Should You Buy One?
The Flying Flea C6 is not just another electric motorcycle, it is a game-changer. With 400+ Nm wheel torque, 115 kmph top speed and a neo-retro design, it offers the best of both worlds: the performance of a modern electric bike and the style of a classic motorcycle.
