Škoda 30 T (also ForCity Plus) is a five carbody low-floor bi-directional tram, developed by Škoda Transportation for the Bratislava tram system based on an earlier model Škoda 26 T designed for Hungarian Miscolc. Just as Škoda 26 T, the tram was designed by Aufeer Design.[1][2]

Vehicle design

The tram is a five section fully air-conditioned high capacity electric multiple unit with four bogies and five pairs of doors on each side of the carriage. 92% of the tram is a low-floor area.[3] Two of the four bogies are fixed and the outer two can pivot to adapt to curvature of the track. One of the inner and both outer bogies have driving axles.[4]
