Rolling stock
The T10 tramway operates Alstom’s Citadis X05 lumiere trams, which are 45m long and can accommodate 314 passengers. Built-in low floors provide level access across the trams and convenient access for disabled passengers, especially wheelchair users.
The trains feature eight double-leaf doors on each side, 45% glass surfaces, 100% LED illumination, eight oversized multimedia screens, USB sockets, air-conditioned interiors and bench seats. Audible and visual announcements guide travellers throughout the journey.
The tram is energy efficient due to its improved energy consumption for traction and auxiliary systems such as LED illumination and air conditioning.
