2014年3月21日 · The FLEXX Eco bogie remains the world’s only lightweight in-board bearing bogie which is already fully-proven in passenger service for a wide range of mainline applications. Bombardier is now developing the latest FLEXX Eco Platform bogie and this will be used on all future contracts.

2013年10月10日 · Bogies from the FLEXX family go under most of the electric and diesel multiple unit (EMU/DMU) trains that Bombardier produces, but they have to cope with a wide range of operational challenges depending on where the train is running and the job it is being asked to do.

ICE 4 (开发时代号为ICx)是DB新一代250km/h级别的大运量编组可变动车组，设计目的是为了扩展200km/h中高速铁路的运营空间，并将速度等级较高的IC列车升级为ICE (速度等级低一些的IC的下一代产品则为双层IC 2)，进行IC一级铁路旅行产品的再细分。

Later this year, a super-lightweight trailer bogie based on an existing Bombardier design used for the UK Voyager and Meridian trains will be manufactured for the 250km/h ICx regional trains to be made by Siemens for the German railway operator Deutsche Bahn.

2011年5月9日 · Bombardier Transportation said Monday it has signed a framework agreement with Siemens AG to become a partner to develop and supply important components of up to 300 ICx high speed trains for Germany’s Deutsche Bahn (DB). Bombardier said the first call-off for 130 trains is worth an estimated 1.3 billion euros, or $1.8 billion, to Bombardier.

2011年5月31日 · The FLEXX Eco bogie will have a dedicated version for the trailer cars of the new German ICx trains, reducing train weight with 15 tonnes, and offering the opportunity of aerodynamic improvements by covering the bogie.

2016年9月14日 · DB has placed firm orders with Siemens for 130 ICE4 (formerly known as ICx) trainsets under a May 2011 framework agreement for up to 300 sets. Bombardier Transportation has a 30% share of the project, including work on the exterior design, car bodies, bogies and some of the final assembly.

2012年7月13日 · Bombardier presented its FLEXX Compact bogies for the Regio 2N trains for the French Regions and its centre for developing FLEXX Tronic technologies. The FLEXX bogie portfolio is the world's most comprehensive one: it covers the entire range of railway vehicles from metros, trams, high speed trains to heavy haul locomotives.
