This is the final stage of the capital's tram fleet renewal. The new car is already at the Apakov depot, which we opened in the spring after reconstruction. In the near future – acceptance, testing, and then launching on the route. In 2 years, Moscow will receive 100 such cars.
"Lion Cub" is a modern low-floor tram with an extended autonomous running system. It will be able to pass sections without a contact network, which will allow reliable compliance with the traffic schedule and reduce infrastructure costs. The autonomous running reserve is at least 4 km.
For passengers – a completely low floor at all doors, climate control, charging, multimedia screens, places for strollers and bicycles. Capacity – up to 150 people. The driver's cabin is equipped with the "Anti-sleep" system, and internal and external video surveillance cameras are installed throughout the car.
Moscow remains the world leader among megacities in terms of the rate of renewal of its tram fleet: 97% of the cars have already been replaced, the average age of the rolling stock does not exceed 6 years.
