SCI Verkehr’s MultiClient Study “Metro Vehicles – Global Market Trends” offers a comprehensive insight into the structure, fleets, volumes and development trends in the worldwide market for metro vehicles.

Urbanisation, the increasing mobility of people and climate change are resulting in increased demand for modern and efficient public transport systems. On the other hand, slumps in ridership and changing work behaviours as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic present urban transportation with new challenges. However, metro is a very environment-friendly transport mode which further will grow importance in coming years as many on-going infrastructure projects show.
