Since 2010, the share of new rolling stock in the Moscow Metro has increased sixfold, from about 13 percent to more than 77 percent, and continues to grow. Today, the capital has the highest rate of train renewal compared to metros in other European countries and the United States. In addition, metro trains are now upgraded every two to four years, faster than in Soviet times, when this was done once every decade.
"The Moscow Metro is the city's main transport artery. On a weekday, more than 8.2 million trips are made here. On behalf of Sergei Sobyanin, we regularly modernize the cars of the capital's metro: at present, 22.5 percent of the rolling stock fleet remains to be updated. Already next year, the replacement of trains on the Zamoskvoretskaya line will be completed. It will be served by the "Moscow-2024" series and cars of an even more modern modification. At present, about 300 cars have been updated on the Zamoskvoretskaya line, which is considered one of the most popular in the Moscow metro. We plan that by 2030 there will be no lines without modern trains, including the rolling stock on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya line, which will be completely updated," said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.
Currently, there are almost 6.8 thousand cars in the capital's metro. Since the beginning of the year, the rolling stock fleet has been replenished with 168 trains of the modern "Moscow-2024" series, developed by domestic specialists.
By 2030, the Moscow Metro fleet will increase by 17 percent.
There are 23 electric depots operating daily to service the metro rolling stock. They employ 14,000 people, including 5,500 drivers. The depots use the most modern equipment to perform scheduled maintenance and repairs on all types of trains, diagnose systems and equipment, and wash and clean the trains before sending them to the line. More than 4,600 new cars of the capital's metro are serviced under a life cycle contract: the manufacturer is responsible for their technical condition for 30 years.

At the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum in 2025, the Moscow Government and JSC Transmashholding signed the world's largest contract for the supply of new trains. Over the next two years, the capital's metro will receive more than 700 Moscow-2026 cars. They will carry passengers on the Zamoskvoretskaya and Troitskaya lines, and may also be used on other lines in the future. Last year, the capital's metro received 36 Moscow-2024 trains.
