The ForCity Smart 45T tram is a two-way, fully low-floor, three-
cell vehicle with swivel bogies. Full vehicle adhesion ensures re-
liable driving characteristics even in adverse weather conditi-
ons. This 31-metre tram can comfortably accommodate up to
233 passengers, 64 of whom are seated. The maximum opera-
ting speed is 70 km/h. There is air conditioning and two large
multifunctional spaces for wheelchairs, prams or bicycles. The
new tram also offers a modern, clear information system with sc-
reens and panels. To ensure safety, the vehicle is equipped with
a camera system.
The Brno City Transport Company has signed a contract with
Škoda Group for the purchase of up to 40 new trams – current-
ly five vehicles have been ordered. The total value of the frame-
work contract is CZK 2.4 billion.

The new tram has a spacious, air-conditioned interior equipped
with stainless steel handrails, widescreen LCD information moni-
tors and USB chargers. The RIS2 Management and Information
System or EOC2 validators are also included in the equipment.
The tram has a total of four tipping platforms for transporting mo-
re wheelchair users. The carriage is also equipped with an exteri-
or and interior camera system and partially tinted side windows.
The driver's cab has been redesigned. In addition to the clear
console, where the emphasis is on simplicity and good visibility,
the controls are partly implemented directly in the driver's seat.
The windscreens are equipped with heating, and the front
windscreen also has a design daytime running light. The electri-
cal equipment allows for regeneration, i.e. returning electricity
back to the grid when braking, which reduces the overall con-
sumption of the vehicle and thus the operating costs. p
