Škoda 7Ev

Electric multiple unit 660 InterPanter of the České dráhy

The České dráhy ordered 3 different variants of trainsets. The first order consisted of 12 units of class 440 (3-car, 241 seats), 3 units of class 640 (3-car, 241 seats) and 4 units of class 650 (2-car, 147 seats). First five units entered service in September 2012. Then came several more orders. Škoda Transportation currently producing another 50 units of improved class 650 marked 650.2 and also 29 units of class 640.2.[4][5] In the Czech Republic, the train sets of the Czech Railways carrier are known as RegioPanter.

In 2015-16 were built 14 units called InterPanter for fast train lines, which are use on routes Brno-Prague and Brno-Břeclav-Olomouc.[6] InterPanter units have fewer doors, more luggage and bicycle space and a vending machine with snacks.

All 440 class units will be in 2021-2022 upgraded to multi-system class 640 due to gradual switching to AC traction system.[7] This upgrade will be made by Škoda Transportation.

In 2020, one 650 class unit was tested on the Tábor - Bechyně railway. The reason was to verify compatibility with small arc radii due to possible future deployment on this railway.[8]

In 2018 Škoda Transportation in consortium with ŽOS Trnava won contract with Železničná spoločnosť Slovensko to supply 8 3-car units and 2 4-car dual-voltage units.

In 2019 South Moravian Region in Czech Republic selected Škoda Transportation as the supplier of 37 electrical units for suburban transport of Brno.[14] There will be 31 4-car units with 333 seats and 6 2-cars units with 146 seats. The units will be owned by the region and leased to carriers. The trainsets will be named Moravia after the very first locomotive, which arrived in Brno in 1838.[15][16] The design of the units was introduced in September 2020.[17]

In October 2020, the Estonian state-owned railway operator Elron announced to order six electric units with option to order 10 more, which totals to 16 units. Units would go to operation in the second half of 2024 and run mainly the Tallinn-Tartu line.[18] They would operate the country's passenger train system next to 38 Stadler FLIRT units.

In 2015 National Express Germany won a 12-year contract to operate Nuremberg S-Bahn services from December 2018. Its bid included 38 5-car 7Ev trainsets owned by a leasing company.[19] The total value of the contract will exceed €380 million.[20] However, in 2016 National Express pulled out of the bid and order was cancelled.[21][22]
