Motorcycle company Royal Enfield shines a spotlight on its new electric brand dubbed Flying Flea as it has launched its first motorcycle: the C6. It boasts a lightweight build with an agile movement, speaking to a new demographic as the main goal. The design nods to the iconic lines of the original flying Flea, the famous British military bike from the World War II era.
The Royal Enfield Chief Growth Officer at Electric Vehicles and Flying Flea, Mario Alvisi speaks on the design: "If you look at motorcycles or cars right now, they often look the same. As if electric technology means to build a product that almost has no soul, that is very futuristic in terms of look and style. We don't want to do that. We believe that behind the technology there is a soul."
