On 18 November 2013 PKP Intercity signed a contract with Newag/Stadler Polska consortium for 20 eight-car long distance FLIRT3 EMUs, to be delivered by October 2015. The contract is worth 1.6 billion PLN (around 383 million EUR) and includes a 15-year maintenance of the new trains. Stadler Rail is to provide the bodyshells, bogies and other components to Poland: the end cars will be mounted at Stadler Polska works at Siedlce, while the intermediate ones will be completed at Newag Nowy Sącz, where the trains will be commissioned.
