SAFETY ELEMENTS FOR CITY TRAFFIC

INEKON 04 - SUPERIOR tram is a modern vehicle even when it comes to safety. The front parts of the tram are made so that to be easily replaceable and they are also resistant to collision. The shock can be caused either by another tram or by a class B car. In the process of designing the car underfarame and side walls, the protection of passengers against side impacts has been taken into consideration too.
The tram is based on the low-floor modular construction concept. If required, it enables to build the tram as a bi-directional (double-ended) vehicle.
