Royal Enfield enjoys a rich and vibrant pedigree in the world of motorcycling. It is an iconic manufacturer with the same brand recognition and reputation as Triumph or Harley-Davidson. Its latest collaboration, The Royal Enfield Flying Flea, marks another shift into the contemporary world of artificial intelligence and the merging of classical engineering with the latest connectivity.

Produced in collaboration with Qualcomm and built around the electric vehicle model of motorbikes, the Royal Enfield Flying Flea delivers cutting-edge controls and performance by utilizing Snapdragon QWM2290 system-on-chip. This technology allows for fully integrated services via the Snapdragon Car-to-Cloud platform, with real-time diagnostics and advanced navigation.

The result is a motorbike that delivers the classical esthetics fans of Royal Enfield admire with a modern approach to performance and intelligent safety that enhances the riding experience. The Royal Enfield Flying Flea’s onboard system’s robust and reliable navigation features also open up new opportunities for exploration, with personalized ride settings that can create customized journeys and data-driven decision-making.

Controlling the Flying Flea motorbike’s Snapdragon QWM2290 SoC is intuitive, with a neat user interface and experience that enables quick adjustments while on the road. There’s also full support for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, preventing issues operating the controls, changing ride mode combinations, and assessing upcoming terrain.

Security features are also robust. The Royal Enfield Flying Flea utilizes the onboard system to recognize and enable the rider’s mobile phone as a smart key for unlocking and starting the bike. It’s an intriguing development from Royal Enfield and another positive sign for the future of EV motorbikes.
