History

Pesa Bydgoszcz started production of trams in 2006. The first model produced was the Tramicus, and since 2010, the Swing.. Their structures, however, were close to each other.
At that time, MPK Częstochowa issued a tender for the purchase of brand-new low-floor trams because of the planned opening of a new tram line have increased need for rolling stock. In 2012 Silesian Interurbans bought 30 Pesa twist-step trams, and a year later Moscow bought 120 Pesa Fokstrot units. In the following year, MPK Kraków bought 36 trams, and in 2015 MPK Wrocław also bought Pesa Twist trams.
