New Delhi, Sept. 17 -- Royal Enfield's dedicated electric mobility brand, Flying Flea, has officially introduced an all-new Parachute White colorway for its C6 electric motorcycle. This addition expands the aesthetic choices for riders looking for a premium, retro-inspired EV experience.
A Refined Aesthetic: The Parachute White Colorway
The new Parachute White shade joins the existing Flea Green and Storm Black options, becoming the third distinctive colorway available for the Flying Flea C6. The Parachute White finish pairs a warm white base with contrasting black detailing. Additionally, signature blue accents are integrated into the design, including treatments on the seat and handlebar grips, delivering a strikingly modern and refined look. The black sections surrounding the battery and other core components add a bold contrast to the overall visual profile. This new colorway is confirmed to be available for buyers in India.
Unchanged Performance and Powertrain
While the exterior gets a fresh update, the mechanical foundations of the Flying Flea C6 remain completely unchanged.
Motor and Speed: The motorcycle is powered by a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) generating a peak power of 15.4 kW and 60 Nm of maximum torque. This setup provides a claimed top speed of 115 kmph and can accelerate from 0 to 60 kmph in 3.7 seconds.
Battery and Range: It is equipped with a fixed 3.91 kWh lithium-ion battery housed within a magnesium casing. This battery pack delivers a claimed IDC riding range of 154 km on a single charge.
Charging Capabilities: Featuring an onboard charger, the C6 can be plugged directly into a regular 16A wall socket. Charging from 0 to 80 percent takes approximately 65 minutes, while a full 0 to 100 percent charge takes about 2 hours and 16 minutes.
Technology and Hardware Features
The Flying Flea C6 blends its historic, WWII-era parachute-deployable inspiration with modern EV technology.
Chassis and Suspension: The bike features a forged aluminum exposed chassis and a floating seat. The front suspension utilizes a distinctive forged aluminum girder-linkage hydraulic setup with 100 mm of travel, paired with a rear monoshock providing 110 mm of travel.
Smart Connectivity: The cockpit is highlighted by a 3.5-inch circular TFT touchscreen display running on Fleaware OS, a proprietary adaptation of Android Automotive OS. It supports Bluetooth connectivity, connected navigation via Google Maps mirroring, voice assist, and over-the-air (OTA) updates.
Safety Electronics: Standard safety features include dual-channel ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, and five selectable riding modes to customize the riding experience.
