Liebherr Equips Additional Bombardier FLEXITY Classic Trams with HVAC Systems

Liebherr-Transportation Systems is going to supply heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems for another four of Bombardier* Transportation’s FLEXITY* Classic 6NGTW Series trams. The delivery is based on a contract both companies signed in October 2012.

For each one of the four trams, which will be operated by the city of Plauen, Germany, Liebherr is going to deliver two driver cab units and one saloon unit. The high-efficiency, high-reliability and low-weight HVAC systems enable optimal comfort for the driver and the passengers, and reduce power consumption and maintenance costs.

This order is again proof of Bombardier’s confidence in Liebherr-Transportation Systems known as a customer-oriented and reliable supplier.
