The order will be confirmed next year. The 45m long and 2.4m wide trams wil have 88 seats, 16 jumper sreats and 172 standee spaces. They will be bidirectional and have 7 doors per side. The two operators will also cooperate on maintenance. The Waldenburgerbahn units will cost a total of 60 million CHF and enter service in 2022 in connection with the conversion of that line to meter gauge. They will be ready for the line's planned (later) conversion to driverless operation. The Limmattal units will cost 43 million and also enter service in 2022 with the opening of Limmattalbahn.
