Cityjet - Austria

Deluxe train in red/white/red

When it comes to comfort, the ÖBB cityjet sets a new standard. The fully air-conditioned train will be equipped with high-comfort seats manufactured on the basis of the results of passenger surveys (ÖBB seat test). The so-called Austria seats include an adjustable seat cushion, ergonomic headrests and armrests. Each seat will be equipped with a reading lamp, an electrical outlet and a foldout laptop table.
For passenger information, the ÖBB cityjet is equipped with information screens measuring up to 26 inches which will provide passengers with current, up-to-date information.

Access at the platform level

Comfortable low floor entrances allow for easy access without steps or ramps. Wide portals, open and quiet junctions, as well as strong colour contrasts for the visually impaired facilitate rail travel for persons with limited mobility.

Elegant design

In the train sets with their red/white/red exterior, lighting design and accentuated fittings create various options for usage, such as communication, work, or relaxation. A service zone offers room for wheelchair users, strollers and bicycles. With this, ÖBB addresses the diverse needs of different passengers.

S-Bahn and regional transport version

The ÖBB cityjet will have two versions with three cars each. The 31 train sets which are to be used for S-Bahn operation – in particular in the Vienna area – each offer 244 seats and six access doors per train side. The regional train version has 259 seats and four access doors per side.

There are:
8 stroller spaces
2 wheelchair spaces per train end
