Commuter and regional trains from Siemens
Energy-efficient, reliable, and economical. With intelligent, flexible concepts for commuter and regional trains, you can meet current and future challenges and help shape the future of commuter and regional services – regardless of the area of application or available connections to other forms of transportation.
Flexible train concepts for the future
Faster arrival, easier customized planning, more mobility
Speed
Passengers want to arrive quickly and punctually. With a standard speed up to 160 km/h, the Desiro and Mireo train platforms ensure a short travel time and greater flexibility. Depending on the type of deployment, from regional to interregional service, maximum speeds up to 200 km/h are also possible.
Deployment
Modern, intelligent train concepts have to ensure reliability on the tracks worldwide. Desiro and Mireo are designed to excel at a variety of service tasks – be it commuter, regional, or interregional service – including across borders and regardless of climatic conditions or changes in infrastructure.
Capacity
When the traffic volume and demand for mobility increase, operators need to contend with higher capacity requirements. With Desiro and Mireo, the number of cars, vehicle width, car length, and loading gauge (single- or double-deck cars) can be flexibly and modularly adapted to current requirements by means of variations and combinations.
The train family
A train that intelligently combines it all
At once energy-efficient, flexible, highly responsive, and profitable: The Mireo intelligently combines all the requirements of operators, buyers, and passengers. At the same time, it offers a lower weight, greater freedom of movement, shorter construction time, and optimized components. Our innovative platform provides maximum added value for mass-transit and regional service.
The proven, flexible train family
Greater comfort and safety meets outstanding reliability. With the trailblazing Desiro family of trains, you’re well prepared for every requirement. These innovative trains are guaranteed to be more attractive and increase customer satisfaction. Whether they’re used in commuter, urban, suburban or regional service – the Desiro family increases flexibility and quality, optimizes your costs, and maximizes economic feasibility.
To meet every local and regional service challenge, Siemens also develops innovative customized solutions on request. These solutions also guarantee a high degree of future viability, reliability, and advanced technology.
For example, as part of a consortium we’re supplying up to 1,380 cars to S-Bahn Berlin GmbH for the Berlin commuter rail system. Siemens is responsible for the entire electrical equipment of the project, from the drive and brake system and the on-board power supply to the vehicle control, train protection and passenger information system, and even the bogies.
