Civia is a class of electric multiple unit trains built by CAF and Siemens for the Renfe Cercanías commuter railway networks in Spain. The first units entered service in 2003.

The Civia train concept was created with passenger comfort and build quality in mind, and to meet the goals of reliability, frequency and punctuality. They have better provision for disabled passengers than older Cercanías trains.

Technical details

Civia units use 3kV DC overhead electrification. The maximum speed of Civia units in service is 120 km/h (75 mph), but with modifications they will be able to reach 160 km/h (99 mph).

Modularity

Civias are modular units - trains can be formed from two, three, four or five cars as required. Renfe classifies various Civia configurations as Classes 462, 463, 464 and 465; or collectively as Classes 46*.[1] There are four car types:

  • A1 - end car with driving cab and normal floor.
  • A2 - end car with driving cab and normal floor.
  • A3 - intermediate car and downstairs WC.
  • A4 - intermediate car with normal floor.

Cities and routes

Civia units operate in the following cities and regions:
