Alstom is launching the latest evolution of its Citadis range at InnoTrans, the world’s biggest railway tradeshow which takes place in Berlin from 23-26 September. Alstom’s Citadis tramway was upgraded to deliver extra configurations, capacity, flexibility, speed and an enhanced passenger experience. Citadis X05 integrates new technologies such as permanent magnet motors which reduce energy consumption, and easier sub-system integration and maintenance which decrease lifecycle costs. Citadis X05 will be faster, able to run at around 80 km/h, allowing operators to increase distances between stops on the outskirts of cities. Two catenary-free solutions will be offered: besides the proven APS technology, Alstom now offers full on-board autonomy systems.
