The Flying Flea C6 is finally on European streets, priced at €5,990 and ready for delivery in October. It will launch in Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Berlin and London, giving buyers a quick pick‑up window and a brand that’s already made waves in India.
Under the hood, the C6 packs a 3.91 kWh lithium‑ion pack that gives 104 km on a full charge and a top speed of 115 km/h. The motor delivers 15.4 kW at 3,500 RPM and 60 Nm of torque, while a 20–80 % charge takes just over an hour. For city riders, that range covers a daily commute and a couple of weekend rides without fuss.
Design is where the C6 turns heads. A forged‑aluminium exoskeleton frame and a precision‑engineered girder fork—never seen on any other motorcycle—give it a lightweight feel that’s surprisingly robust. Three colourways—Flea Green, Storm Black and Parachute White—offer a fresh aesthetic that matches the brand’s quirky heritage.
Inside, the bike runs on Fleaware OS, an Android‑based system that plugs into the Flying Flea Mobile App. Features include a joystick‑controlled TFT dashboard, lean‑angle ABS, traction control, and remote monitoring. Compared to the Zero SR/F’s 20 kW motor or the Ather 450X’s 12 kW system, the C6 trades a bit of power for affordability and a simpler, more approachable interface.
From a buyer’s view, the €5,990 price is a game‑changer. It sits well below the Zero SR/F’s €19,000 and the Ather 450X’s €12,000, making it the most accessible entry‑level EV in the European market. Import duties for electric bikes are currently capped at 10 %, and the Indian‑manufactured battery may qualify for additional tax incentives, keeping the cost curve low. The launch in October means riders can start the year on a green, budget‑friendly ride while waiting for the next generation of larger‑range models.
