Rostock’s Date with TINA
In the development of the new vehicle generation, in addition to energy-efficient and quiet propulsion technology, particular emphasis was placed on passenger comfort. A spacious interior with high ceilings, friendly indirect lighting, and large panoramic windows create a pleasant travel environment. Low-floor entrances with directly adjacent multipurpose areas enable barrier-free access for wheelchair users and the relaxed transport of bicycles and strollers. All of this is complemented by Wi-Fi, continuous air conditioning in the three vehicle sections, and large ceiling monitors displaying clear travel information.
The front cabin meets the latest passive safety standards and is additionally equipped with a collision protection system that uses LIDAR and RADAR technology. The driver’s compartment features a fully digital horizontal dashboard, ensuring the widest possible field of vision for the drivers, with dynamic and situation-dependent display of driving information.
In the year 2025, the 32-meter-long vehicles, capable of accommodating 221 passengers, are scheduled to begin operating in the Hanseatic and university city of Rostock.
