Velaro The Siemens Platform for 250–350 km/h trains • Performance • Safety • Comfort
Velaro - the Siemens Platform for 250–350 km/h trainsPerformance • Operating speed: 350 km/h-> better than flying (Madrid – Barcelona in 2.5 hours) • Distributed Power Technology -> allows for 20% more passenger capacity -> for reliable adhesion even in bad weather and on 40 ‰ gradients-> for improved on-time reliability -> for saving energy due to regenerative braking on 50% of the axles • Core elements for interoperability, such as • TSI-compliance • Multi-system capability • Future-oriented ETCS capability -> for optimized cross-border operation
Velaro - the Siemens Platform for 250–350 km/h trainsSafety Crash scenario Fire scenario Body shell design • pressure-sealed cars for lower infrastructure cost (e.g. tunnels) • Proven cross-wind stability 15 t Solid (Lorry) Tunnel 110 km/h 80 km/h Able to operate for 15 minutes at this speed with a fire alarm! Limited cab deformation!Survival area not deformed! Designed according to the latest and advanced TSI standards for mixed traffic operation and operation on dedicated lines *) TSI = Technical Specification for Interoperability
Velaro - the Siemens Platform for 250–350 km/h-TrainsComfort • Travelling on the Velaro saves time • Comfortable, rotatable seats in 3 classes • Smart facilities for working, resting, communication and entertainment • 4 galleys for individual customer service Club Preferente Turista
Velaro - the Siemens Platform for 250–350 km/h-TrainsComfort • Spacious bistro area • Business @ 350 km/h in the Velaro conference room
Velaro E – attractive for air and road passengers Energy saver Velaro: 1,4 l Diesel-equivalent per 100 seat km @ 350 kph*) *) 8-car Velaro with 458 seats Performance, safety and comfort of the Velaro E will shift a significant amount of ridership from cars and planes to the railways
High-Speed Trains: Trends @ Siemens • Velaro E is the state of the art technologyplatform for High-Speed trains world wide • Technology evolution instead of revolution.Focus on: • Cost reduction, Reliability, Maintainability, Availability • Innovation in interoperability (i.e. ETCS Level 2+3) • Innovation in localisation of systems and components • Standardisation on a component / subsystem level (e.g. MODTRAIN) • Global Sourcing and development of partnerships with subsuppliers • Application of state of the art communication technology in trains (Bluetooth, WLAN, …)
