The car is based on the Talgo 230 platform, characterized by a lightweight design that reduces energy consumption for train traction by up to 30% compared to traditional counterparts.

The first deliveries of the cars to Denmark took place in January 2024, allowing local railways access to the latest technologies in passenger transport.

On the open-air site of the exhibition, Talgo showcased the BR 105 electric locomotive for ICE L high-speed trains intended for German railways.

This locomotive is also developed on the Talgo 230 platform, confirming the versatility and efficiency of the applied technologies.

The framework agreement with DB, signed in 2019, provides for the supply of up to 100 ICE L trains.

The first of them are planned to be put into operation at the end of 2024. The ICE L represents an important step in the development of the German railway network, offering high speed and reliability on long-distance routes.

Talgo’s latest developments highlight the company’s commitment to innovation and improving the efficiency of rail transport in Europe.

Optimizing design and energy consumption helps reduce operating costs, making the company’s transport solutions in demand in the market.

Talgo’s presentation at InnoTrans 2024 demonstrates its readiness to meet the needs of modern railway operators, ensuring comfort and high performance of rolling stock.
