After the success of the semi-high speed Vande Bharat trains, the Integral Coach Factory (ICF) in Chennai is developing a Metro version. This train will run on short routes, allowing people to stand, and will replace the older Mainline Electric Multiple Units (MEMU).

The first prototype of the Vande Metro will be rolled out from the ICF very soon in early 2024. Like Vande Bharat, Vande Metro trains will also be fully air-conditioned and are being designed to run at a maximum speed of 130 kmph with facilities like automatic doors, CCTV, better toilets, and infotainment.
Primarily designed for intercity short-distance commuter travel, the Vande Metro will have double-leaf doors for easy boarding and deboarding.
It will have the capacity of a maximum of 100 passengers on the seats and 200 standees in one bogie.
