The project comprises BKV’s purchase of 22 new metro trains to operate on the existing metro line 2 (M2) and the upgrading of an existing depot. The new rolling stock will replace obsolete Russian type rolling stock, which is up to 35 years old.

Ziele

The Budapest Public Transport Company (BKV) decided to buy new rolling stock to match the asset life of the currently rehabilitated infrastructure for M2, which will have an economic life of around 35 years after completion. The new vehicles will have a higher passenger comfort and energy efficiency.
