Renfe is preparing 30 trains to take its AVE to Portugal in 2030

Renfe has started the process to homologate its high-speed trains in Portugal, with the goal of operating there from 2030. The Spanish state-owned operator will adapt 30 trains from its Series 106 and 107 fleets, manufactured by Talgo, to Portugal's rail network, which requires an investment of at least €20 million. The trains will connect major cities such as Vigo, Oporto, Lisbon, Badajoz and Madrid. Renfe's internationalization plan has shifted focus from France to Portugal due to regulatory hurdles in France.
