The latest from the Alstom Citadis range, Citadis X05 is one the lightest trams of its generation. As a result, it is expected to be more energy-efficient and offer high levels of reliability.

The design of the new tram has been developed in partnership with Alstom and agency Design Saguez & Partners.

The passenger exchange ratio has been increased by more than 20% with eight double doors on each side.

Carrying a 100% eco-friendly design, the tram is 97% recyclable.

Seven Alstom locations in France will be involved in production of the trams, securing more than 500 jobs.

More than 2,300 Citadis trams have been sold to 55 different cities worldwide to date, including 23 French cities.

Citadis in its X05 version has already been ordered by Nice, Sydney and Caen cities.
