The A and B cars were built from 1968 to 1975 by Rohr Industries, an aerospace manufacturing company that had recently started mass-transit equipment manufacturing. The first of these cars were delivered in 1970. The A cars were designed as leading or trailing cars only, with an aerodynamic fiberglass operator's cab housing train control equipment and BART's two-way communication system, and extending {{convert|5|ft|2}} longer than the B-cars. A and B cars can seat 60 passengers comfortably, and under crush load, carry over 200 passengers.{{Cite news |last=Cabanatuan |first=Michael |date=April 10, 2010 |title=BART can't keep pace with rising 'crush loads' |work=SFGate |url=http://m.sfgate.com/bpm_test/article/BART-can-t-keep-pace-with-rising-crush-loads-6234574.php}} B cars have no operator's cab and are used in the middle of trains to carry passengers only. However, since each car is self-propelled, the B cars do have hostler controls allowing manual control as single units at low speeds inside a yard.{{Cite web |title=B2 Cars |url=https://bartcars.weebly.com/b2-cars.html |access-date=January 5, 2023 |website=BARTCHIVES |language=en}}

As early as 1978, BART realized that it had ordered too many A cars, which were unable to operate in the middle of train, and too few B cars. Over time, about 113 A cars (about {{frac|2|3}} of the A car fleet) were converted into B cars by removing their fiberglass cabs and installing the inter-car connection equipment.{{Cite web |title=A to B Conversion |url=https://bartcars.weebly.com/a-to-b-conversion.html |access-date=January 5, 2023 |website=BARTCHIVES |language=en}}

BART previously operated 56 A cars and 341 B cars, and following their retirement on April 20, 2024, regular service will be of new cars only. To be able to maintain the vehicles until they are taken out of service, the workshop regularly procures computers on the second-hand market that can still address the old systems. Since the first series were newly designed, they had very few standard components, making them difficult to maintain.{{Cite web |title=BART – Car Types |url=http://www.bart.gov/about/history/cars.aspx |access-date=August 23, 2009 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}}{{Cite news |date=September 2007 |title=FY08 Short Range Transit Plan and Capital Improvement Program |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit |url=http://www.bart.gov/docs/FINAL_FY08_SRTP_CIP.pdf |url-status=dead |access-date=November 11, 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080229183818/http://www.bart.gov/docs/FINAL_FY08_SRTP_CIP.pdf |archive-date=February 29, 2008}}{{Cite news |date=September 17, 2022 |title=How clever mechanics keep 50-year-old BART trains running: Windows 98, eBay, and scraps |publisher=The Mercury News |url=https://www.mercurynews.com/2022/09/17/how-clever-mechanics-keep-50-year-old-bart-trains-running-windows-98-ebay-and-scraps |access-date=November 25, 2022}}

Just as BART had realized in the mid-1970s that it had ordered too many A cars, it also learned that it took more time than desired to change the length of a train. BART had originally planned to bring trains into yards after the morning rush and remove B cars to shorten the trains for midday service, before returning them to yards again to add cars for the evening rush. Ultimately this procedure resulted in long downtimes and increased the number of operators needed.{{Cite web |title=C1 Cars |url=https://bartcars.weebly.com/c1-cars.html |access-date=January 5, 2023 |website=BARTCHIVES |language=en}}

File:BART C-car control panel.jpg

BART's solution to both issues was a new design, the C car. A C car has an operator’s cab like an A car but can also be used as an intermediate car like a B car. When placed in the middle of a train consist, the operator's cab is closed off and a door in the nose opens, allowing passengers to pass through to the next car (always another C car). This allowed BART to make one long train that could quickly break into two trains outside of a yard. Crews could also do the reverse and make one long train from two shorter consists. To add the operator’s cab while maintaining the same length as a B car, the C cars could only seat 56 passengers (a loss of four seats).

The first C cars, referred to as C1 cars, were built by Alstom between 1987 and 1989.{{Cite news |date=February 23, 1990 |title=BART Car ills |work=San Jose Mercury News |url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=SJ&s_site=mercurynews&p_multi=SJ&p_theme=realcities&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=0EB731C25CCAA9D1&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM |access-date=August 23, 2009 |via=Newsbank.com}} The second order of C cars, built by Morrison–Knudsen, are known as C2 cars. At the time of their construction, the C2 cars also featured flip-up seats which could be folded to accommodate wheelchair users; these seats were later removed during refurbishment.

The C cars had a bright white segment as the final approximately {{convert|2|ft|cm|spell=in}} of the car at their cab end.

After about 25 years in service, the A and B car fleet was rebuilt, using lessons learned when building the C cars, and the advances in technology since then. Among the changes were a conversion from DC to AC propulsion (detailed below), rebuilt trucks and suspension, and a complete cleaning and repair to the exterior and interior of the cars. The work was done between 1998 and 2002 at first by Pittsburg, California-based ADtranz and later by Bombardier which acquired the company in 2001.{{Cite web |title=Rebuilding |url=https://bartcars.weebly.com/rebuilding.html |access-date=January 5, 2023 |website=BARTCHIVES |language=en}}{{Cite news |last=Baldassari |first=Erin |date=June 14, 2019 |title=BART's new train cars to be built in the Bay Area |agency=The Mercury News |url=https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/06/14/barts-new-train-cars-will-be-built-in-the-bay-area-thanks-to-new-bombardier-plant/ |access-date=June 19, 2019}}

A cars, (fleet numbers 101–276) were either rebuilt while retaining their cab (and renamed A2 cars, fleet numbers 1164–1276), or rebuilt without a cab (converted into B2 cars, fleet numbers 1838–1913). B cars (fleet numbers 501–774, 801–837) were rebuilt into B2 cars (fleet numbers 1501–1774, 1801–1837).

Because one of the original design goals was for all BART riders to be seated, the older cars had fewer provisions such as grab bars for standing passengers. In the late 2000s BART began modifying some of the C2 cars to test features such as hand-straps and additional areas for luggage, wheelchairs and bicycles. These new features were later added to the A, B, and C1 cars.

Prior to 2012, all BART cars featured upholstered seats. It was reported in 2011 that several strains of molds and bacteria were found on fabric seats on BART trains, even after wiping with antiseptic. These included bacteria from fecal contamination.{{Cite news |last=Elinson |first=Zusha |date=March 5, 2011 |title=BART Seats: Where Bacteria Blossom |work=Bay Citizen |url=http://www.baycitizen.org/transportation/story/bart-seats-bacteria-blossom/1/ |access-date=March 8, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110309083104/http://www.baycitizen.org/transportation/story/bart-seats-bacteria-blossom/1/ |archive-date=March 9, 2011}} In April, BART announced it would spend $2 million in the next year to replace the dirty seats.{{Cite news |last=Elinson |first=Zusha |date=April 12, 2011 |title=BART Plans to Spend $2 Million to Replace Grimy Seats |work=Bay Citizen |url=https://www.baycitizen.org/news/transportation/bart-spend-2-million-replace-seats/ |access-date=April 13, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140715210324/https://www.baycitizen.org/news/transportation/bart-spend-2-million-replace-seats/ |archive-date=July 15, 2014}} The new seats would feature vinyl-covered upholstery which would be easier to clean.{{Cite news |last=Elinson |first=Zusha |date=April 6, 2012 |title=BART's New Seats (a Few) Make Debut |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/06/us/bart-introduces-its-new-vinyl-covered-seats.html |access-date=January 24, 2015}} The transition to the new seats was completed in December 2014.{{Cite web |date=January 2, 2015 |title=New seats now in all trains |url=http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2015/news20150102 |access-date=January 24, 2015 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}}

Originally all the cars had carpeted flooring. Due to similar concerns regarding cleanliness, the carpeting in all of the cars was removed.{{Cite web |date=August 10, 2015 |title=BART carpet: Like wool seats, another relic gone for good |url=http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2015/news20150810-0 |access-date=April 11, 2016 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}} The A and B, and C2 cars featured vinyl flooring in either grey or blue coloring, while the C1 cars featured a spray-on composite flooring.

Prior to rebuilding,{{Cite news |date=October 9, 2003 |title=BART Renovation Nears Completion |work=Business Wire |url=http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20031009005737/en/BART-Renovation-Nears-Completion#.VMSAx8bv2A0 |access-date=January 24, 2014}} the Direct Current (DC) traction motors used on the 439 Rohr BART cars were Model 1463B with chopper from Westinghouse, who also built the automatic train control system for BART. The Rohr cars were rebuilt with ADtranz model 1507C 3-phase alternating current (AC) traction motors with insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) inverters. The Westinghouse motors were retained on the Alstom C (C1) and Morrison-Knudsen C2 cars and the motors that were removed from the Rohr cars were kept as spares. Cars have a starting acceleration of {{convert|3.0|mph/s|km/h/s|abbr=on|disp=or}} and are capable of holding that acceleration up to {{convert|31|mph|abbr=on}}.

The HVAC systems on the Rohr BART cars before rehabilitation were built by Thermo King, when it was a subsidiary of Westinghouse. The current HVAC systems on the rebuilt Rohr-built Gen 1 cars were built by Westcode and possibly also ADtranz who had subcontracted the HVAC system to Westcode.{{cite court |litigants = Westcode, Inc., Plaintiff, v. Daimler Chrysler Rail Systems (North America) Inc., f/k/a Aeg Transportation Systems, Inc., Defendant |url = https://www.paed.uscourts.gov/documents/opinions/00D0876P.pdf }}

Many BART passengers have noted that the system is noisy, with a 2010 survey by the San Francisco Chronicle measuring up to 100 decibels (comparable to the noise level of a jackhammer) in the Transbay Tube between San Francisco and Oakland, and still more than 90 decibels in 23 other locations.{{Cite web |last=Cabanatuan |first=Michael |date=September 7, 2010 |title=Noise on BART: How bad is it and is it harmful? |url=http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Noise-on-BART-How-bad-is-it-and-is-it-harmful-3175757.php |access-date=April 22, 2016 |website=SFGate}} According to BART, the noise in the tunnel used to be "compared to banshees, screech owls, or Doctor Who's TARDIS run amok".

However, then-chief BART spokesperson Linton Johnson stated that BART averages 70–80 dB, below the danger zone, and according to a 1997 study by the National Academy of Sciences, BART ranks as among the quietest transit systems in the nation.{{Cite web |last=Nelson, J. T |year=1997 |title=TCRP Report 23: Wheel–Rail Noise Control Manual. |url=http://www.bart.gov/sites/default/files/docs/noisereport.pdf |access-date=September 22, 2015 |publisher=National Research Council |location=Washington, D.C.}} Critics have countered that this study analyzed straight, above-ground portions of different systems throughout the country at {{convert|30|mph|abbr=on}}, which is not representative of actual operating conditions. Much of BART is under ground and curvy, even in the Transbay Tube, and has much higher peak operating speeds than many other systems in the country.{{Cite news |date=October 24, 2010 |title=Why Is BART So Noisy? |publisher=Oakland North Radio |url=http://oaklandnorth.net/2010/10/24/why-is-bart-so-noisy/ |access-date=April 10, 2012}}

Train noise on curves is caused by the wheels slipping along the rails. This slippage also causes noise and surface damage called corrugation. The process by which the noise and corrugation occur is:

1. Pairs of wheels are attached to one another with an axle such that they must have the same rotational speed, but on a curve the distances the outer and inner wheels travel are different. As a result, the wheels must slip along the rails.
2. This slippage causes the wheel and track to wear and become uneven (corrugated).
3. This corrugation causes more noise and corrugation, not only in the original location but elsewhere in the system.

In 2015, after replacing {{convert|6,500|ft|0}} and grinding down (smoothing) {{convert|3|mi}} of rail in the tube, BART reported a reduction of noise there and positive feedback from riders.{{Cite web |date=August 13, 2015 |title=Riders notice a quieter ride following first of two tube shutdowns |url=https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2015/news20150813 |access-date=April 22, 2016 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}} BART also announced that the new train cars expected to enter service in December 2016 (see below) will be quieter, thanks to "'micro-plug' doors [that] help seal out noise".{{Cite web |date=April 6, 2016 |title=Onsite testing begins for BART's first new train car |url=https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2016/news20160406 |access-date=April 22, 2016 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}}

If Federal Transit Administration funds were used in the purchase of a vehicle and that vehicle is deemed to have a value over $5,000 at the time of sale, the FTA is entitled to a reimbursement proportional to its contribution to that vehicle when it was initially bought. This applies even if the car is donated free of charge.{{Cite web |title=Legacy Fleet Decommissioning |url=https://www.bart.gov/about/projects/legacy |access-date=May 5, 2020 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}}

The older cars began retirement in November 2019 when car 2528 - a C2 car - was the first released from BART ownership. The car had been removed from service in 2014, by which time it had run {{convert|2000000|mi|spell=in}} and was held in reserve for spare parts. Four additional C2 cars, three B2 cars, and two C1 cars (totalling ten cars) were also sent to the Schnitzer Steel facility in Oakland to be evaluated and recycled.{{Cite news |date=November 12, 2019 |title=BART's first legacy car heads to recycler |publisher=Mass Transit |url=https://www.masstransitmag.com/rail/vehicles/press-release/21114136/bay-area-rapid-transit-bart-barts-first-legacy-car-heads-to-recycler |access-date=December 6, 2019}}

BART strategically targeted the C2 cars to be the first in the legacy fleet to be completely decommissioned. The C2 cars had a multitude of issues including HVAC units that were the most likely in the fleet to break down, passenger doors that would often come off their tracks, and operator cabs with windows that would frequently fail and windshield wipers that would become stuck. By August 2021, all 80 of the C2 cars had been scrapped. Starting in late 2021, BART targeted the remaining C1 cars for decommissioning. By June 2023, all C1 cars had been decommissioned, and by May 2024, all but two cars had been scrapped, with only one remaining on the property. The surviving cars are 329, currently at the Western Railway Museum, and 323, which is owned by the Hayward Fire Department, who has placed it on a section of elevated trackage at their training center on the southern portion of the Hayward Executive Airport.https://www.firerescue1.com/firefighter-training/old-calif-railcars-find-second-life-in-fire-department-training

The decommissioning of the legacy fleet was complete by September 11, 2023, by which point they no longer operated as part of regularly scheduled operations. However, the agency kept legacy cars on hand for occasional supplement service, such as on days with major events or during a service disruption.{{Cite web |date=August 24, 2023 |title=Sizing Trains for Safety and Efficiency |url=https://www.bart.gov/sites/default/files/2023-08/Sizing%20Trains%20for%20Safety%20and%20Efficiency%20FY2024.pdf |access-date=August 28, 2023 |website=San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District}} Due to reduced ridership in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, full-length trains did not typically fill up, so BART chose to retire the legacy fleet and operate shorter trains with the intention of cutting costs and improving user experience.{{Cite news |last=Cano |first=Ricardo |date=August 18, 2023 |title=Why BART is getting rid of its legacy fleet trains |work=San Francisco Chronicle |url=https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/bart-train-schedule-service-18301884.php}} BART hosted a retirement ceremony for the legacy fleet on April 20, 2024, with trains running on the MacArthur–Fremont segment (the first segment of BART to open).

While systems such as the Chicago Transit Authority and New York City Transit Authority have retained some retired railcars as part of a "heritage fleet" that operates on charters and special occasions, BART has stated such a fleet would not be feasible due to the cars' incompatibility with the newer CBTC system, as well as limited yard space to store them and the obsolete components needed to maintain them.https://www.bart.gov/about/projects/legacy Thus, BART has instead opted to donate their historic cars to the Western Railway Museum, giving them one each of the A, B, and C1 cars, as well as other historic components which are to eventually be featured in the museum's planned Rapid Transit History Center.{{Cite press release |title=From BART bars to arcades: The creative ways people plan to repurpose legacy BART cars |date=March 10, 2022 |publisher=San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District |url=https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2022/news20220310-0}}https://www.wrm.org/fundraising-campaigns/rapid-transit-history-center The museum received the first legacy car, A2 car no. 1164 on August 9, 2024,{{cite magazine |title=BART delivers first of three decommissioned legacy fleet cars to Western Railway Museum |url=https://www.masstransitmag.com/rail/vehicles/press-release/55133714/bay-area-rapid-transit-bart-bart-delivers-first-of-three-decommissioned-legacy-fleet-cars-to-western-railway-museum |access-date=19 August 2024 |magazine=Mass Transit |date=August 16, 2024}} followed by B2 car no. 1834 on September 11,https://bartcars.weebly.com/post-retirement.html and finally, C1 car no. 329 on October 4, 2024.https://www.facebook.com/WesternRailwayMuseum/posts/pfbid02GMAxDgfpD1BH4M2B6Ho9yAqyDNxTd49S68V7by7jZonvySd2MK6vAo7uhub84y7Jl

In a 2010 APTA study, the average age of BART's mainline fleet was reported to be 30 years, longer than the usual lifespan of 25 years. Despite the purchase of newer cars over the years, the majority of the active fleet in 2016 was over 40 years old and had traveled over a million miles. Because of this, they have been increasingly prone to frequent breakdowns and repairs, decreasing the number of available cars and in turn increasing congestion, especially with the need to increase the fleet size for extensions to the network.{{Cite news |last=Grossberg |first=Adam |date=January 26, 2016 |title=After a Million Miles, BART Cars Are Hella Old |language=en-US |work=KQED News |url=https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/01/26/after-a-million-miles-bart-is-hella-old/ |access-date=January 20, 2018}} Consequently, in 2009, BART began the process of expanding and replacing its railcar fleet.{{Cite web |title=New Train Car Project |url=https://www.bart.gov/about/projects/cars/delivery-plan |access-date=January 20, 2018 |language=en}} By 2010, it had received proposals from five suppliers, and on May 10, 2012, it awarded a $896.3 million contract to railcar manufacturer Bombardier (during delivery the company was bought by Alstom) with an order for 410 new cars, split into a base order of 260 cars and a first option order of 150 additional cars.{{Cite news |last=Richman |first=Josh |date=May 10, 2012 |title=BART board approves contract for 410 new train cars |work=San Jose Mercury News |url=http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_20595058/bart-board-approves-contract-new-410-rail-cars |access-date=May 11, 2012}}{{Cite journal |last=Bowen |first=Douglas John |date=May 11, 2012 |title=BART taps Bombardier; U.S. content at issue |url=http://www.railwayage.com/index.php/passenger/rapid-transit/bart-taps-bombardier-us-content-at-issue.html |journal=Railway Age |access-date=May 11, 2012}} The car was designed by Morelli Designers, an industrial design firm based in Montréal, Canada.{{Cite web |title=BART – San Francisco |url=http://www.morellidesigners.com/projets/38/90/Transportation/BART---San-Francisco---Bombardier |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150702145233/http://www.morellidesigners.com/projets/38/90/Transportation/BART---San-Francisco---Bombardier |archive-date=July 2, 2015 |access-date=July 2, 2015 |publisher=Morelli Designers |language=French}} On November 21, 2013, BART purchased 365 more cars, for a total fleet size of 775 new railcars, while also accelerating the delivery schedule by 21 months (from 10 cars per month up to 16 cars per month) and lowering procurement costs by approximately $135 million.{{Cite web |date=November 21, 2013 |title=BART Board approves additional 365 cars for Fleet of the Future |url=http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2013/news20131121-2 |access-date=November 26, 2013 |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}}{{Cite web |date=November 21, 2013 |title=Board Meeting Agenda |url=http://www.bart.gov/sites/default/files/docs/agendas/11-21-13%20Agenda%20Packet_2.pdf |access-date=December 5, 2013 |publisher=San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District |pages=91–92}} The contract requires that at least {{frac|2|3}} of its value be spent on U.S.-built parts.{{Cite web |title=New Train Car Project: FAQ |url=https://www.bart.gov/about/projects/cars/faq |access-date=January 5, 2023 |website=BART}}

Bombardier initially agreed to speed production to have all cars available by the end of 2021 and in service by 2022.

In November 2018, BART announced they had negotiated to extend their purchase options to a total of 1,200 cars,{{Cite web |title=Train Car Update |url=https://www.bart.gov/about/projects/cars |access-date=April 4, 2019 |website=New Train Car Project |publisher=Bay Area Rapid Transit}} though reports in 2019 stated that this deal was still not final. By the end of March 2019, 65 cars were in use; four 10-car trains for revenue service and the remainder for training. In June 2019, with 84 total cars delivered, Bombardier announced it would be moving production from their New York-based plant to a new facility shared with Hitachi Rail in Pittsburg, California in the East Bay.

In January 2021, BART stopped accepting new cars pending reliability improvements to be made by Bombardier.{{Cite press release |title=BART will temporarily stop accepting new cars |date=December 29, 2020 |publisher=San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District |url=https://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2020/news20201229}} That same month, the struggling Bombardier sold its transportation division to Alstom, which said it would work to recover operations. BART was not alone with issues with Bombardier equipment. Before the Alstom deal, the company had seen declining profits largely caused by a series of major delays in delivering new fleets of trains (including the Flexity streetcars for Toronto and R179 subway cars for New York City) and reliability problems once trains were placed in service.{{Cite news |last=Briginshaw |first=David |date=February 18, 2020 |title=Alstom Acquiring Bombardier Transportation |language=en-US |work=Railway Age |url=https://www.railwayage.com/passenger/alstom-acquiring-bombardier-transportation/ |access-date=January 5, 2023}}

BART has exclusively run Fleet of the Future trains on its base schedule since September 11, 2023. Legacy trains only ran when needed, such as on days with major events or during a service disruption. Since March 4, 2024 when BART had over 700 new cars and no longer needed to rely on the legacy trains, BART exclusively runs Fleet of the Future trains. BART retired the remaining legacy fleet on April 20, 2024, as the last run of revenue service.

The 775th new car was certified in July 2024, finally fulfilling the original Fleet of the Future contract. At that time, options were being exercised for two additional orders of rolling stock. The Transbay Corridor Core Capacity Program calls for an additional 306 cars to be added to allow capacity for 10-car trains to operate through the Transbay Tube at a rate of 30 per hour per direction. The Silicon Valley extension also requires the purchase of an additional 48 cars. These acquisitions will increase the size of the BART fleet to 1,129 main line vehicles.{{cite news |last1=Johnson |first1=Emily |title=BART Finalizes Original Fleet of the Future Contract as New Train Cars Enhance Transit System |url=https://hoodline.com/2024/07/bart-finalizes-original-fleet-of-the-future-contract-as-new-train-cars-enhance-transit-system/ |access-date=24 July 2024 |agency=Hoodline |date=July 23, 2024}}
