The train was presented to FS CEO Mr Mauro Moretti (pictured) together with representatives from the Italian regions where the trains will operate.
The trains will be supplied in two different lengths – 54 trains will have five cars and 16 trains four cars, and four configurations. The commuter version will have plenty of space for standing passengers, while the regional configuration will have more seats, the regional express trains will have a higher level of comfort, and the airport rail link trains will have a greater proportion of space for luggage. However, the trains are designed so that the internal layout can be modified in the future.
The name Jazz was chosen following an online survey on the FS website, and follows a musical theme adopted by FS for its trains, namely Minuetto and Vivalto. The photo illustrates the striking livery chosen for the trains.
