The Urbos 100 Light Rail Vehicles entered service in Parramatta to inaugurate the light rail line in December 2024. They are similar to the Urbos 100 LRVs in operation in Newcastle, and the Urbos 3 LRVs that operate on the Sydney Light Rail L1 line, but have seven sections whereas the others have five. Parramatta light rail has sections without overhead wires, and the Urbos 100 vehicles have on-board energy storage that can be recharged at stations. They have a low floor throughout.
