Tatra-Yug is going to take part at the leading international trade fair for transport technology – InnoTrans. Growth of urbanization worldwide with advancement of digital technologies demands smart and rational solutions for mobility. At InnoTrans 2018 we are going to represent our vision for innovative, eco-efficient and cost-effective solutions for mobility at urban areas. We will represent the new model of a modular type tramcar with a 100% low floor area ratio.

Dear Friends, as you know, since September of this year, one of our new trams was tested in the city of Kamianske. Last week K1M6 successfully completed all tests, inspections and exploitation trials, as evidenced by the positive conclusion of the independent testing commission. All inspections on the tram tracks of the city took more than two months. We deliberately have chosen a location with a poor state of the rail tracks in order to demonstrate the possibility of exploiting the new model in difficult conditions. The test is conducted perfectly in accordance with all requirements of the State Standards of Ukraine. Running daily on extremely bad tracks, the tram passed all the radius curves of turns with working speed, the noise level in comparison with other analogues is much lower, and, finally, the appearance of the car pleasantly surprised the inhabitants of the city. The Mayor of the city of Kamianske , having got acquainted with the new car, highly appreciated its quality and comfort.

Tatra-Yug took part in the exhibition of the International Union of Public Transport, which took place in Montreal from May 15 to May 17, 2017.

During the visit, a number of successful negotiations were held with representatives of the countries participating in the exhibition.

After the event we can state with confidence, that the development of public transport is very fast and the vector is aimed at increasing mobility of the population, with an emphasis on the environmental friendliness of vehicles and significant savings in resources. LRT systems occupy a leading position in this race and are experiencing a booming expansion in the countries, both South and North America.

Tatra-Yug has signed a contract to supply 15 tramcars to Alexandria (Egypt)

In early 2017 the tender committee of the Alexandria Passenger Transport Authority has decided to give acceptance for the production of 15 articulated trams to Ukrainian company “Tatra-Yug”. This was preceded by a lengthy tender process, including a visit of a special Egyptian commission to the production facilities and inspection of Tatra-Yug tramcars. As a result, the quality and reliability of products has played a key role.

Thus, the Ukrainian manufacturer with 24-years experience in the production of tramcars on the largest factory Pivdenmash bypassed competitors such as Stadler (Switzerland), CRRC Corporation (China) and other large-scale producers in Europe and Asia and received the order to produce the rolling stock for the oldest tram system in Africa and one of the oldest in the world. The project is designed so that new, modern trams will be able to ride on the streets of Alexandria in the near future. The proposed tramcar will be made in accordance with all requirements of the Alexandria Passenger Transport Authority and in view of new technologies for operation in difficult exploitation conditions, including climate. The project is unique not only in technical terms, this is the first order in Africa this scale for the Ukrainian manufacturer of tramcars. It will employ about 250 Ukrainian companies, involved in the production process, improve the image of Ukraine, not only as an exporter of raw materials, but also as an industrial power.

The ceremonial signing of the contract took place on February 6, 2017 in Alexandria in the presence of the governor of Alexandria Reda Farhat and Ukraine’s Ambassador to the Arab Republic of Egypt Hennadii Latii.

“This contract with Alexandria – is the starting point for Tatra-Yug for the dissemination of high-quality Ukrainian product in the MENA region. We are proud of the quality of our trams and of 95 percent localization of production in Ukraine, because it is thousands of jobs and huge contributions to the budgets of all levels to revive the economy of our country “- said CEO Anatoly Kerdivara after signing.
