The Innovia APM 200 was the successor to the Innovia APM 100 and was succeeded by Innovia APM 300. Designed in response to the growing popularity of the Crystal Mover, the advancements the Innovia APM 200 made over the Innovia APM 100 included a new aerodynamic design, allowing for greater speeds and tighter turns. The Innovia APM 200 also featured full composite construction, and multiple end cap options.

Specifications edit

Each individual Innovia APM 200 car weighs 14.4 tonnes (15.9 short tons; 14.2 long tons) empty, with a weight of 21.627 tonnes (23.840 short tons; 21.285 long tons) with passengers. The car is configured to allow eight passengers to sit down, while 92 additional passengers can stand at a density of 2.7-square-foot (0.25 m2) per passenger. If there is enough room two wheelchairs can fit in each Innovia APM 200 car, in addition to sitting and standing room. A maximum of four cars can be coupled together in a single train. Each car is air-conditioned, lit, and includes tinted windows attached to the composite shell body.
