The delivery of these modern trams is part of the “Urban Public Transport of Ukraine” project, supported by the European Investment Bank.

Each tram can accommodate up to 300 passengers, with 71 seats available.

Their articulated bogies with two-step suspension provide maneuverability and allow the trams to be used on uneven track sections.

Although «Tatra-Yug» had planned monthly deliveries of new trams, a pause in deliveries occurred due to bureaucratic issues with project funding.

However, the manufacturer expects a resolution to this situation by the end of May and will resume implementing the delivery schedule.
