On the morning of September 9, Malaysia’s first batch of hydrogen ART rolled off the production line at CRRC Smart Rail Yibin Factory. This is the first batch of smart rail trains to roll off the production line after the POC prototype. It is reported that the Kuching project will deliver and put into use 38 hydrogen ART in stages, of which 17 are expected to be delivered before 2025 and put into operation by the end of 2025.

The first new hydrogen ART that rolled off the production line this time has a streamlined design, which is not only more beautiful, but also can greatly reduce air resistance and enhance the sense of speed of the vehicle. In addition, compared with the POC prototype, the batch train has made more upgrades and optimizations in intelligence, comfort, energy saving and environmental protection.

Dato Sri Lee Kim Shin, Minister of Transportation of Sarawak State, Malaysia, Ts.Mazli Bin Mustafa,CEO of Sarawak Metro and the others attended the event.
