Royal Enfield has officially begun deliveries of its new electric motorcycle, the 'Flying Flea C6,' in India. Visordown reports that a phased global rollout is expected to follow shortly, marking the launch of a serious EV effort from the storied brand.
Royal Enfield beginning deliveries of the electric Flying Flea, starting in India — I find this move interesting from a data standpoint. Whether a brand with this much history can bring an EV down into the reality of mass production. The phased global rollout is also a sound, steady approach. Not sentiment, but putting it into the market first and verifying — I think that's the right way to proceed.
