On 19 January 2026, the Board of Directors of SNCF Voyageurs has approved an additional order for 15 TGV M (Avelia Horizon) units, worth approximately 600 million EUR. Deliveries are expected in 2029. This order is for the quadruple-voltage version of the speed trains, which meets European traffic requirements.
This optional tranche of the Avelia Horizon Innovation Partnership contract between SNCF Voyageurs and Alstom is the fourth of this new generation of very high-speed trains. It complements the 115 trains already ordered by SNCF Voyageurs, including 100 for commercial operation in France and 15 for commercial operation in Europe, as well as the 30 trains ordered by Eurostar last October, bringing the total for this contract to 160 trains.
