These trams were designed for service in Madrid in Spain, but became surplus and were purchased by Adelaide Metro. They are completely low-floor vehicles and are similar to the C2 Class trams in service in Melbourne. Six vehicles entered service in 2009 and 2010. Another three that were built in 2010 and stored in Madrid arrived in Adelaide in December 2017 and entered service in 2018.
