Several sources are highlighting the build of a carbon fiber commercial metro train in China. The Cetrovo 1.0 prototype, featuring a composite body shell, is a joint project between CG Rail, Chinese-German Research and Development Center for Railway and Traffic Technology Dresden founded as a spin-off of TU Dresden, and rail vehicle manufacturer CRRC Sifang based in China. The “Next Generation Metro Train” project reportedly makes new strides in eco-friendly urban transportation, with an 11% weight reduction compared to metal models, and between 7-15% reduction in energy consumption.

Additional project partners include Qingdao Metro Group, Harbin FRP Institute, Weihai Guangwei Composite and AVIC Composite.
