Comfort
Vehicle internal features
The ULTra vehicles are spacious with seating for 4-6 adults and ample space for shopping, pushchairs and luggage. The vehicles can be adapted to accept heating or air conditioning for extreme climates.
In 2003 ULTra PRT undertook a series of passenger trials at the company’s test site. This site reproduces all the features of a typical city application, elevated track at 5.7m above ground, up and down grades, curves in both directions and a simple station. The passengers undertook a representative journey, including use of the destination request panel, entering the vehicle, commencing (launching) the trip and completing a 1km (approximately) journey. An independent survey concluded that all the passengers (100% of those participating) found the experience either satisfactory or very satisfactory.
