The first train for Tram Line 2 made its debut in Suzhou New District.

This train is over 80 percent made in China, saving costs for both production and future maintenance. Its body is inspired by a water drop, and it is 2.25 meters high, making it comfortable for commuters. Its aluminium frame is lightweight, strong and corrosion-proof. The tram train can save 20 percent of energy in summer and 50 percent of energy in winter thanks to its insulation design.

Exterior Design

Iconic shape to be recognized.

When looking at the exterior design, an iconic round-shaped front can easily be recognised from the distance. Based on the fact that Suzhou is called the Chinese Venice, as if it were drops of water, the new tram runs through the streets of Suzhou with such fluidity and dynamism as the water flows through its adjacent river canals. Hence, this new tram with its sinuous, rounded and friendly shape, transports millions of people with the elegance and the sophistication it deserves. The main metallic, silver, large black glass surfaces and orange colours provide this distinction, creating a timeless and lasting combination.

Interior Design

Vivid sensation.

When entering the tram, the main colours are white and orange, bringing luminosity, amplitude and calm with a feeling of dynamism, energy and safety. Together they add an energetic and modern spirit to the technological city district where it runs. The most noteworthy feature of the interior of this tram lies in the inclusive design. The low floor distribution along the entire tram allow passengers with reduced mobility, on wheelchairs or with strollers, to move freely without obstacles. Moreover, the use of vivid colours on handrails and seats enhances the safety requirements. Passenger comfort is ensured with different types of ergonomic seats with different orientations, while enjoying the outside view of the city.
