The Royal Enfield Him-E is a powerful electric adventure motorcycle, which was showcased at EICMA 2024 last year. Now its V2 version is being tested on the high and difficult roads of Ladakh. Royal Enfield is preparing it for all types of weather and roads. This bike has a powerful 13.3 kWh battery, which gives it a real-world range of 150-200 km. This range is great for long journeys, especially for those who love adventure in areas like the Himalayas.
Its battery has a fin-cooling design inspired by the Flying Flea C6, which prevents the battery from heating up and maintains its performance even in high altitude areas. Its testing in Ladakh shows that Royal Enfield is working on making this battery system even stronger.

Suspension and design
This has electronically adjustable suspension, which gives excellent control on rough roads. However, the Him-E weighs 202 kg, which is slightly more than the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 (petrol model). This extra weight is due to the battery and motor, but the company is trying to make it lighter.
The design of the Him-E is similar to the Himalayan 450, but it also has some special features of an electric bike. Its strong frame and good ground clearance make it perfect for mountain roads.
Flying Flea C6 also in the field
Along with this bike, Flying Flea C6 was also seen being tested in Ladakh. Flying Flea C6 will be Royal Enfield’s first electric motorcycle, which is set to be launched by 2026. It is a retro-style electric bike, which is being made for city riders. Its testing in Ladakh shows that the company is also preparing it for all types of roads. This Royal Enfield electric bike will be a great urban option.
