The Inekon 12 Trio is an articulated low-floor tram manufactured by Inekon Trams in the Ostrava factory. Production is performed in cooperation with the city transport company of Ostrava. The 12 Trio is a double-ended (bi-directional) version of the Inekon 01 Trio tram. The 01 Trio is conceptually based on the Škoda 03 T developed by Škoda Transportation and Inekon Group. While the 01 Trio Tram is operated on the local market in the Czech Republic, the 12 Trio model was designed for export. The standard model is designated as 12 Trio, but in 2012–13 Inekon introduced a variant that is capable of limited operation on batteries only, and this is designated 121 Trio. As of 2016, the 121 model has only been purchased by Seattle.
