9 AVRIL is based upon the Talgo technical principles allowing:

9 Optimal Accesibility
9 Lower energy consumption
9 Lower emission of CO2
9 Lower acoustic emissions to the outside
9 Lower acquisition and maintenance costs

9 AVRIL introduces a new concept wich benefits from the advantages of the
concentrated and distributed tractions:
9 High acceleration and brake performance
9 High

3. ENERGY EFFICIENCY

ƒ The Talgo 350 ( S-102) is the train in its category that consumes less energy per km (13.8 kWh/km).

ƒ Designing the AVRIL involved the challenge for reducing this consumption even further:
¾ - 7% per kilometre
¾ - 31% per seat/kilometre

9 Identified areas for optimization of aerodynamic
