The project envisages the delivery of a total of 35 modern electric intercity trains, which will improve the quality of passenger transport.

At the moment, ten of the trains are already stationed at the manufacturer's depot, where intensive tests are being conducted on the national railway network. The goal is to prepare for their upcoming entry into regular service.
