PC Transport Systems LLC (PC TS) is a Russian company specializing in the production of urban electric vehicles: trams, trolleybuses and electric buses.
History
The company was founded by Felix Vinokur in 2013, after leaving the founders of the Trading house Ust-Katav Wagon-Building Plant LLC.[1] In 2014, on the basis of the Vinokur's company developments at the leased facilities of the Tver Carriage Works launched the production of the 71-911 "City Star" tram and later the "Vityaz" tram, which received a certificate for industrial production in 2015.[2]
In April 2017, the company's management announced their availability to take over the Tver tram system as a concession, promising to invest 6 billion rubles in the development of the Tver tram to continue to support it for over ten years.[3] In early 2018, the company began construction of a factory for the production of aluminum carriages for trams at the Tver Mechanical Factory Plant of Electric Transport, a separate structural department of the PC TS.
