Passenger Comfort

Passenger comfort is another important factor in the design of Hitachi Monorail System. The straddle design provides stability as the vehicle rides along the guideway. Passenger comfort is enhanced by the vehicles' air spring suspension and use of the latest power traction technology to drive rubber-tired wheels. Hitachi's monorails offer a sure-footed, significantly quieter and more comfortable ride compared to steel wheeled transit vehicles. And also rubber tire system makes running vehicles less noisy.
