Swiftly traveling across country to destination. Taking time out for oneself or someone else. Calmly forgetting everyday cares. What? There already? A pity it’s over! That’s Desiro ML. Every train journey is like a short vacation.

Want to help passengers avoid traffic jams? Arrive at their destinations refreshed and relaxed? Even on longer journeys, time flies by with Desiro ML. Everyone glides along smoothly without turbulence thanks to the air-sprung bogies and comfortable seats adapted for long distances.

Combining ultramodern technology with service-proven equipment and designed to meet the requirements of existing and future norms, the Desiro ML platform is setting new standards in modern rail-based transportation. Standards typified by low-floor seating arrangements, generously apportioned doorways and gangways, an attractive, innovative design, and maximum passenger comfort.

Comfort taken one step further

In every aspect of its design, equipment and modular interior, the Desiro ML goes one step further with the level comfort. Innovative, variable solutions for passengers and driver not only meet but exceed expectations for an attractive mass transit system. Journeys are so pleasurable that by the time they leave the train, passengers will be already looking forward to their next ride on the Desiro ML.

The profitability of a transportation system is a lot more than simply looking at the costs of purchase and operation. Here again, the temporarily coupled unit concept of the Desiro ML has the edge on permanently coupled trains. And that starts with its higher capacity: its longer car length gives a 3-car Desiro ML more seats than an articulated train of the same length with the same seat spacing.

Safety for passengers and the environment

When you go on a journey, you want to reach your destination safely. Commuter, regional and InterRegio services with passenger appeal are closely associated with relaxation and feeling safe. That’s why safety is an integral part of the Desiro ML train concept. It offers responsible interaction with our environment and reassurance for the operators that statutory regulations will be met now and in the future.

Partnership right from the start

Are you looking for a partner who will guide you, reliably and competently, every step of the way, from your first decision to buy, through the planning stage, to a complete aftersales service? Over the last 160 years, Siemens has established a proven track record in project management. The vast knowledge acquired by the company over this time has been used to advantage for the Desiro ML.

Put through their paces

Manufacturers and operators of rail-based transportation systems face two new trends: shorter lead times and rising cost pressure. This has a knock-on effect on inspection and testing, for new rail systems have to be operationally ready and reliable from day one.
