In 2011, CAF signed a contract for the supply and maintenance of 57 electric units for the city of Auckland, in New Zealand. Subsequently, in 2017, an extension of 15 units was signed.
These trains for Auckland Transport consist of three cars with a total capacity of 380 passengers.
Each car is fitted with two doors on each side for rapid passenger boarding and alighting. It should be pointed out that the intermediate car is low floor to facilitate access for persons with reduced mobility and wheelchair users.
These units are fitted with state of the art systems such as displays, cameras or Wi-Fi and systems required to achieve the strictest market safety levels: ERTMS, DVS, train-ground radio and events recorder. Deliveries of the first 57 units were made between 2014 and 2015.
