Major Czech cities have initiated large-scale tenders to modernize their public transit fleets with electric vehicles.

In Brno, the Brno Transport Company (DPMB) issued tenders for up to 40 bi-directional trams and 40 articulated battery-powered trolleybuses.

The trolleybus tender, budgeted up to 800 million CZK, focuses on articulated models with a minimum 15-kilometer battery range to support clean mobility goals.
