France presents new TGV trains with a double-decker car

The French railway company has presented its next generation of high -speed trains, which are equipped with stylish interiors and are already causing a sensation online.

Die Inoui trains: a revolution in rail traffic

Under the brand name Inoui-a pun with the French term "Inouï", which means as much as unolking or unbelievable-these trains will represent the fifth generation of the TGV intercity services. This has been a leader in high -speed rail traffic since its introduction almost 45 years ago.

tests and unveiling of the new trains

After more than a million kilometers of test drives, the new trains - completely manufactured in France - were unveiled at the beginning of this month by SNCF Voyageurs, the national passenger railway operator, and the manufacturer Alstom. "45 years after the first TGV, we will revolutionize high -speed trips again," said Christophe Fanichet, Managing Director of SNCF Voyageurs, in a press release.

modern design with retro charm

The trains that reach speeds of up to 320 kilometers per hour (almost 200 MPH) have provided great interest online. Users of social media praised the new designs as "incredible". "These 70s room trip vibes give him a modern and at the same time nostalgic feeling," wrote Jan Buis, an expert in technology and design, on X.

feel -good atmosphere and culinary highlights

The first and second class passenger rooms are designed lightly and supplemented with striking yellow lamps. Table lamps that have been part of the TGV trains for a long time should now look as round as the seats and add a hint of "bright color" and humor, according to the statements of SNCF.

The comfort is very important inside. The cooperation between the French engineering consultancy AREP and the Japanese design agency Nendo has created an ambience that is intended to enable a "personal comfort bubble in a common room". The famous French cuisine and high -quality bars are displayed in the gastronomic highlight of the train - a two -storey dining car.

unique design for travelers

For the first time in the history of the TGV, all Zug crew members were involved in the design process. The train driver, train attendant and maintenance staff gave valuable information about layouts that better meet their daily tasks. With the help of virtual reality technology, the train drivers were able to experience and select three different driver's positions.

family -friendly and barrier -free

The well thought -out design also takes into account the needs of families with children. Microwaves, additional changing tables and relaxation areas have been added to facilitate traveling with young children. In addition, a new car was designed for wheelchair users, which enables them to enter the train independently and order food in their place.

Start of the new routes in 2026

The new trains will be deployed on the route from Paris to Lyon and Marseille from 2026 and the travelers will bring from the capital to the south coast in just three hours.
