Shortly before the end of 2017, the prototype of the new tram for Vienna was completed and handed over to Wiener Linien in 2018. The new low-floor trams will successively replace the last high-floor models of the Wiener Linien. The Flexity convinces with its low energy consumption, for example through LED lighting or air conditioning, which is energy-savingly adjusted to the number of passengers in the tram.
The interior of the new tram is flexibly designed. Generous multi-purpose areas, some of which are equipped with folding seats, provide more space for baby carriages and wheelchairs, which also makes it easier to get on and off the tram quickly. This shortens the time spent at the tram stop and allows the vehicles to be on time. Experience the vehicle novelty and test your skills!

The E2 was put into service for the first time in August 1978 and has been a prominent feature of the Viennese cityscape ever since. The E2 is based on the Mannheim type and differs from the E1 in several technical innovations, such as swing-out steps and a newly designed interior and is used almost exclusively in conjunction with the c5 sidecar. Production of the E2 vehicles was discontinued in 1990, but the vehicles are still in use in large numbers in tram operations in Vienna.
The articulated railcar is equipped with "chopper control". The "chopper control", also called pulse control, is a circuit for controlling motors. Here, the motor current is controlled by transistor pulse controllers. This transistor equipment primarily ensures that the car starts up and brakes quickly.
