Nightjet 2.0

File:Mini cabins in ÖBB's new generation Nightjet sleeper train.jpg

The planned interior design of the night trains was demonstrated by Siemens and ÖBB during September 2022.

Trains are a fixed configuration of seven semi-permanently coupled carriages: two sleeping cars, three couchette cars, and two seated cars.

To simplify reversing and shunting operations the first seating carriage is a control car. At the opposite end of the train, the last sleeping carriage has a standard gangway connection for coupling to older rolling stock.

Nightjet 2.0 trains were designed for operation up to {{convert|250|kph|mph}}, but will be limited to {{convert|230|kph|mph}} in use. Two train sets coupled together fit into the standard {{convert|400|m|ft|adj=on}} maximum railway platform length for passenger trains in Europe. A single trainset can carry up to 254 passengers, and a double-set up to 508 passengers.

Shared couchette accommodation is provided either as fixed four-bed compartments, or as mini-suite capsules similar to capsule hotel accommodation.

All sleeping car compartments feature an en-suite wet room with combined shower and toilet. One "Comfort Plus" sleeping car compartment per carriage has an en-suite bathroom with en-suite toilet and separate shower.

Carriages are fitted with a fire sprinkler system.

The Vienna/Innsbruck‒Hamburg-Altona station night train received the first Nightjet 2.0 trains on 10 December 2023.

Vienna‒{{rws|Bregenz}} since March 2024.

Vienna‒Rome since September 2024.

The Vienna/Innesbruck‒Amsterdam Centraal station night train received Nightjet 2.0 trains from 27 May 2025 towards Amsterdam, waved off by Peter Hanke, ÖBB CEO {{ill|Andreas Matthä|de|v=sup}}; and from 28 May 2025 from Amsterdam towards Austria.
