In June 2014, Euskotren awarded CAF the construction of 28 3-car EMUs for 150 million euros.

[7] They are similar to the earlier 900 series, but feature improved accessibility.

[citation needed] Each train has 94 seats, with additional space for 202 standing passengers.

Wheelchair space is provided at one end of the intermediate car,[10] the doors near it are equipped with ramps.

The first 17 EMUs have the same names as the electric locomotives operated by Ferrocarriles Vascongados (a historical company that preceded Euskotren).
