There are no steps in the aisle because the Avenio is an end-to-end low-floor tram. It has an attractive, spacious interior design with two large multifunction areas (for wheelchairs/strollers) in the central modules. To ensure quick and convenient passenger flows, one single door and four double doors with a clearance width of 1.3 meters are arranged on each side over the length of the tram. These doors ensure that passengers with limited mobility can access and leave the trams without obstruction.
