Avenio is the new line of low floor tram produced by Siemens Transportation Systems. It is the successor of the Combino model and the first generation was sold as the Combino Supra ( /ˈsuːprə/), Combino MkII, or Combino Plus. With the introduction of the second generation in 2009 the Combino brand was dropped and Siemens have referred to their existing Combino Plus trams in Sul do Tejo (Portugal) and Budapest (Hungary) as being part of the Avenio range.
The new series of Combino Plus / Avenio are made of stainless steel instead of light materials, and manufactured at a new assembly line in Vienna. Just like existing Combino models it utilizes modular design using standardised components, and the resulting reduced costs.
