An event that brings together participants from around the world to discuss and showcase the latest trends and innovations in the public transport industry.

In a world where the effects of climate change are becoming more evident each day, it is crucial to prioritize environmentally conscious transportation solutions. Our trams, which are designed with the latest technological advancements and known for their low weight and energy efficiency have a significant positive impact on the environment and urban mobility. 

We are committed to provide safe and reliable transportation solutions for commuters in the post-COVID era. Our trams are equipped with advanced technologies, thus we propose options of air purification systems, antiviral coating of handrails and contactless payment, to ensure the safety and well-being of our passengers.

We look forward to share our vision for a more sustainable and greener world by means of tram systems. Join us at the UITP exhibition in Hall 7 booth 7E276 and discover how we can cooperate to “tramsform” urban mobility for the better.

The electromagnetic brake allows to recover energy into the contact network, minimizing costs of the operating company. The vehicle has an advanced HVAC system. The tramcar is equipped with services for disabled passengers or pregnant women: marked places with fixation for disabled wheelchairs and baby carriages inside the salon, ramps for embarkation and disembarkation at the entrance, lower level push-to-exit buttons, conveniently marked seats for pregnant women. Up to the request of the customer, it is possible to add any feature to the tramcar such as: autonomous drive, passenger counting system, elements of signaling, monitors for passengers, WiFi etc.

As of December 2020, all 15 tramcars of the Ukrainian manufacturer Tatra-Yug have been delivered to the Egyptian city of Alexandria. Thus, all obligations for the supply of trams under the contract have been successfully completed. Trams for Alexandria were designed according to the individual requirements of the buyer to be adapted to the special features of the city infrastructure and climatic conditions. Implementation of this export contract, numerous positive reviews from exploitation organization and passengers, support of the Government of Egypt – all these are important indicators of the reliability and quality of Tatra-Yug tramcars. We are proud to be part of the renew of one of the oldest tram systems in the world.

In the city of Alexandria in Egypt, the first stage of the project for the supply of 15 new tram cars was completed.

At the moment, all 8 cars of Tatra-Yug production are on the line and are successfully transporting passengers of one of the oldest tram systems in the world. New trams are operated on the City Line. Trams for Alexandria were produced taking into account all customer requests, while using modern technological solutions of our construction bureau.

The experience of operating cars in Alexandria proves their high quality and reliability. Residents of the city respond very positively to the new rolling stock and separately highlight the comfort of travel and modern design of the vehicles.

Dear Colleagues,
Tatra-Yug takes part in the Africa Rail 2019 exhibition and conference, which will be held on 19-20 of June in Johannesburg (South Africa).
We invite you to visit our booth B8 in the Ballroom Level 2 at the Sandton Convention Center. We are represented on the joint stand of Ukrainian manufacturers with the participation of the Export Promotion Office of Ukraine.
At the moment Tatra-Yug tramcars are successfully operated in Egypt, we are also considering the possibility of participating in the turnkey project of a tram system in one of the African countries. We are convinced that tramcars and LRTs are the only way to solve transport problems in African cities. Looking forward to see you in Johannesburg.

On December 18, 2018 LLC “Tatra-Yug” and ME “Kyivpastrans”have signed a contract for the production and supply of 10 tramcars.
Trams of the model K1M6 are modern and comfortable cars for any passenger`s needs.
Tramcars will be equipped with air conditioner, places for passengers with limited mobility, will have autonomous course. Trams are designed for operation in unsatisfactory condition of the rail track.
We urge cities to promote public transport, to make it convenient, comfortable and safe, updating the tram rolling stock.

Friends, the Ukrainian trambuilding is 25 years old! Back in 1993, Mr. Kerdivara, the company’s general director, together with the largest tramcar manufacturer in the world, ČKD Tatra (Czech Republic), founded on the basis of the Yuzhmash Plant, named after A.M. Makarova (Dnepr), a unique production site for the construction and manufacturing of Ukrainian trams.

Thanks to the production of Tatra-Yug Ukraine entered the top ten countries with a full cycle of production of tramcars.

The organization of the production process according to the requirements of the European partner, a yearlong education and training of specialists, the preparation of the technical base, the adaptation of the design documentation – were the first steps of the Ukrainian tram building 25 years ago.

Today Tatra-Yug is a successful fully Ukrainian enterprise, which provides high-quality products to many cities in Ukraine and works on export contracts. About 250 Ukrainian companies are involved in the production process, due to which localization of products is up to 95%. During this time, the construction bureau has developed 8 types of trams for any consumer needs and any features of the city.

Tatra-Yug team consists of professionals, talented designers, experienced engineers and responsible managers. We rejoice to celebrate a quarter of a century with you and that Ukraine can be proud of the Tatra-Yug trams.

From 18 to 21 September the largest transport exhibition InnoTrans traditionally held in Berlin, Germany. The company Tatra-Yug participated for the fifth time in this large-scale event. Our booth was visited by the ministers of transport, representatives of municipalities, heads of enterprises and tram fans.

During the international transport exhibition in Berlin we presented a hundred percent low-floor modular type tram car. The new vehicle with swiveling bogies was designed by the construction bureau and R&D department of the company. One of the features of this model is the ability to assemble tramcar as a constructor for each customer. For example, the length could be modified thanks to the modularity or the interior could be changed due to the flexibility in design solutions.

“We originally designed the tramcar to meet all European standards and satisfy the needs of European urban areas,” commented Anatoly Kerdivara, General Director.

The Tatra-Yug tramcar aroused interest from many customers, and the company received invitations to participate at several international tenders.

“For 25 years by now we have been promoting the idea of availability of tram systems in any urban area. InnoTrans this year confirmed the relevance of our activities — the geography of projects for the construction or recovery of tramway lines has spread around the globe — from Latin America to Australia”, — mentioned Tatra-Yug’s General Director.

The tramcar K1E6 was designed and manufactured in accordance with individual requirements of the buyer – all requests were taken into account. It is a high-floor tramcar, which consists of two sections, jointed by a swivel bellow, with three bogies and three double doors. The tram uses asynchronous traction drive with vector control, which provides efficient usage of energy, ensuring highly smooth running. The bogie of the tram has efficient and smart design and is equipped with a two-stage suspension.

There are 30 passenger seats inside the salon, which are organized in accordance with the 1+1 scheme. This layout of seats provides comfortable movement of passengers inside the salon. The total capacity of the tramcar is 206 passengers. Lighting is realized with LED lamps. The spacious interior creates a maximally comfortable atmosphere for passengers. The main operational brake is electrodynamic by which, due to the recuperation process, energy recovers to the contact network, reducing costs of electricity for the buyer.
