    Energy Efficient

    Equipped with a longitudinal-drive inboard axlebox bogie, the train features a compact and lightweight vehicle structure that enables a more efficient traction system, resulting in lower energy consumption.

    Safe & Reliable

    Passive obstacle detection and derailment detection systems provide enhanced safety for fully automated driverless operation.

    Powerful Traction

    Three independent traction systems enable operation on gradients of up to 3% under AW4 load conditions, even with the loss of two-thirds of traction power.

    Corrosion Resistant

    Designed for high-salinity and cross-sea operating environments, using anti-corrosion coatings and corrosion-resistant materials to withstand salt spray corrosion.
