<strong>Introducing</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>new</strong> <strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong><br />

<strong>100%</strong> <strong>low</strong>-<strong>floor</strong> <strong>tram</strong>.<br />

Every day millions of passengers worldwide travel on Siemens <strong>tram</strong>s, with over 550<br />

<strong>Combino</strong> <strong>100%</strong> <strong>low</strong>-<strong>floor</strong> <strong>tram</strong>s operating day and night in 15 cities around <strong>the</strong><br />

globe. From <strong>the</strong> invention of <strong>the</strong> world’s very first <strong>tram</strong> in 1881, Siemens has been<br />

researching, developing and evolving <strong>tram</strong> technology to be state-of-<strong>the</strong>-art.<br />

Siemens is proud to present <strong>the</strong> latest evolution in <strong>100%</strong> <strong>low</strong>-<strong>floor</strong> <strong>tram</strong>s, <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong>, with improved and advanced features to take passengers to <strong>new</strong><br />

levels of accessibility, comfort, and safety.<br />

<strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> – fit for Taiwan’s<br />

needs today and into our future.<br />

We’ve evolved <strong>the</strong> <strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> to<br />

operate seamlessly on Taiwan’s growing<br />

network. The <strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong><br />

features a separate bogie in each<br />

module which means it will turn<br />

corners with ease. The improved<br />

vehicle configuration reduces <strong>the</strong><br />

lateral wheel forces and minimizes<br />

wear and tear on <strong>the</strong> vehicle, and<br />

<strong>the</strong> track infrastructure. The modular<br />

design of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Combino</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> gives <strong>the</strong><br />

vehicle flexibility to meet Taiwan’s<br />

future transport demands and<br />

expands as <strong>the</strong> <strong>tram</strong> network grows.
