History
The Pesa Jazz family is the successor to the previous families of trams. The tram was designed for use in Warsaw. Comparing the Jazz to its predecessor, the 120N, it has a slightly shorter length, non-axle trucks and greater energy storage (enabling movement for about 100 meters without power). On 21 March 2013, an agreement was signed, leading to 45 128N trams being supplied to Warsaw.[1] Later in the same year, on 25 September, an agreement was signed that lead to 5 128NG trams being supplied to Gdańsk.[2] Warsaw later signed another agreement, which lead to 30 more trams being supplied.[3]
