Royal Enfield’s electric brand Flying Flea has entered Pune as the FF.C6 reaches its third Indian city following Bengaluru and Hyderabad
Royal Enfield’s sole electric offering the Flying Flea C6 has entered Pune where 10 sales and service centres have become operational. It must be noted that Bengaluru already has 12 centres and Hyderabad has four – taking the brand into three Indian cities. Owners in Bengaluru and Hyderabad have covered more than 1.25 lakh kilometres on the electric motorcycle since deliveries began according to RE.
The FF.C6 runs a 15.4 kW permanent magnet synchronous motor churning out 60 Nm. The 3.91 kWh lithium-ion battery delivers a claimed IDC range of 154 km and its top speed stands at 115 kmph. The motorcycle can accelerate from 0 to 60 kmph in 3.7 seconds and charging from 20 to 80 per cent requires only 65 minutes. A full charge takes around 2 hours and 16 minutes under standard conditions.
With a lean demeanor, the motorcycle weighs 124 kg and has an 823 mm seat height, 207 mm ground clearance and 1,366 mm wheelbase. The front suspension is a girder-linkage hydraulic twin setup offering 100 mm of travel and the rear monoshock provides 110 mm. The FF.C6 rides on 19-inch wheels at both ends – shod with 90/90 tubeless tyres.
The features list comprises a 3.5-inch colour TFT touchscreen and five preset riding modes. Cruise control, auto hold and bi-directional crawl mode are also available while lean angle sensing ABS and traction control are joined by switchable rear ABS system. Connected functions compose Google Maps navigation, phone-as-key, geofencing, theft control and SOS assistance.
Back to the establishment, the Pune outlets are located in Pimple Saudagar, Wakad, Adarsh Nagar, Wakdewadi, Chinchwad, Kondhwa, Yerawada, Wagholi, Baner and Kasarwadi. Nomadic Motorbikes, Kings Royal Riders, Dhone Automobiles, Brahma Motors, Hridaan Motors, Legacy Automotive, Chopada Motors and Vogue Motocorp LLP operate these centres. Royal Enfield has noted that sales, regular maintenance and technical assistance are handled locally.
The FF.C6 costs Rs. 2.79 lakh (ex-showroom). Flying Flea also offers the motorcycle at Rs. 1.99 lakh under its Battery-as-a-Service programme where the battery cost is separated from the initial vehicle price. Storm Black, Flea Green and Parachute White are the three colour choices on offer and every motorcycle receives 24×7 roadside assistance.
The debut in Pune consolidates Flying Flea’s retail reach after the first operations in Bengaluru and Hyderabad. The FF.C6 now has local sales and service access in three major Indian markets – backed by a network of 26 centres.
