what is it?
The Škoda RegioPanter is a family of single-deck electric multiple units (EMUs) manufactured by Škoda Transportation. The family originated with the Škoda 7Ev, developed for České dráhy, with the first units entering passenger service in 2012. Initially developed for regional services in the Czech Republic, the RegioPanter platform has since been adapted for use in several other European countries, including Slovakia, Latvia, Estonia and Bulgaria.
