DSB has partnered with Siemens and Stadler to introduce 226 fully automated trains for the Copenhagen S-Bane, marking the largest investment in its 90-year history. The new trains will increase service frequency during peak hours to a maximum interval of 1.5 minutes, accommodating up to 10 million additional journeys annually.

The design includes spacious interiors and innovative features like the Air-free Brake System, reducing CO₂ emissions by over 50%. A 30-year service agreement will cover maintenance and support, ensuring reliability and efficiency. Full automation is planned for 2033, with initial operations starting in 2030.
