Stadler Carriages Successfully Pass Climate Tests in Northern Kazakhstan

05-11-2025

Passenger cars manufactured at the Stadler Kazakhstan plant in Astana completed a test route in northern Kazakhstan, during which the heating system and air circulation rate were tested. The Stadler cars successfully passed the climate tests: a comfortable interior temperature of +22°C was consistently maintained, while the outside temperature was -10°C or lower.

Each compartment in the new Stadler cars is equipped with a modern control panel, allowing passengers to independently adjust the temperature and lighting, and, if necessary, call the conductor with the press of a button.
 

As a reminder, the design solutions allow the cars to operate in a wide temperature range—from -50°C to +45°C. This is achieved by incorporating additional body insulation, high-power heating and air conditioning systems, and diesel engine preheating systems.

In September of this year, certification of Stadler passenger cars for compliance with the requirements of the Customs Union Technical Regulation ТР ТС 001/2011 began. The cars have already traveled over 10,000 kilometers in the southern and eastern regions of the country, confirming the reliability of their braking systems, running characteristics, and key safety features.

The first domestically produced cars will be delivered to JSC Passenger Transportation in December of this year. Stadler will also provide 20-year service for the rolling stock. The total order calls for the production of 557 cars by 2030.
