Hop on this Sleek New Luxury Coupe Tram at Designblok 2018

Prague’s public transport authority, in cooperation with Czech designer Anna Marešová, have created a new concept cruise tram, a shiny blue replica of the legendary Tatra T3 tram.

“The new tram preserves the poetry of the 1960s and as such is a celebration of the work of designer František Kardaus (1908⁠–⁠1986), the creative mind behind the original Tatra T3 tram,” says the design team behind the new tram.

“Not only does the tram offer passengers the pleasure of riding through the city in a semi⁠-⁠open vehicle, but it also lets them do so in style,” organizers of the event write.

For instance, the interior features a bar inspired by a similar fitment in the 1950s T1 tram, where it served as a counter for ticket sales. Another distinctive piece of inspiration can be found in the roof windows, a nod to the famed Škoda 706 RTO bus.”

Rides will take place from October 25-29 2018; the T3 Coupé will then be used for commercial rentals.

Excursions with interesting guests from the Czech design and entertainment world, including  Anna Marešová the designer behind this unique project, are planned and will be moderated by Ondřej Cihlář (Vosto5 theater). 

Sightseeing trips depart from Výstaviště Holešovice  and continue on to: Nádraží Holešovice – Vltavská – Štvanice – Bílá Labuť – Náměstí Republiky – Dlouhá třída – Faculty of Law – Malostranská – Chotkovy sady – Letenské náměstí – Strossmayerovo náměstí – Výstaviště Holešovice.
