It is the first metropolitan tram<\/strong> that CRRC Guangzhou Electric Locomotive has ever made. Italdesign<\/strong> was chosen because of the vast experience<\/strong> in the field that it has built up over the years working on numerous similar projects in Europe and \u2013 more recently \u2013 in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

The tram is due to be presented in the autumn and it is the product of more than 18 months of hard work<\/strong>. The team of designers from Italy worked side by side with their Chinese clients on the development of an end product that presents a modern take on classic stylistic traits from Cantonese traditions and culture.<\/p>\n

There were two core influences on the design: Guangzhou\u2019s<\/strong>traditional \u201cdancing lion\u201d<\/strong> inspired the external livery and lines, while the handrails inside took their cue from the distinctive architectural structure of the Canton Tower<\/strong>, which is one of the latest landmarks to appear in the city.<\/p>\n

The whole project revolved around the ergonomic analysis. It is a 70% low<\/strong> vehicle, which means that 70% of the length of each carriage is at pavement level. This makes it easier to board and alight from the tram, especially for passengers with prams and wheelchairs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
