The design may be dated, but electrically-operated reclining seats is not something you find in a lot of European trains, even in first class. Luxurious!
Yes, I like it a lot!
TGV is actually translated as "High-Speed Train" (rather than Great)
inOui is pronounced "Een Ou Oui" a play on the word inouï meaning extraordinary, incredible, sensational.
Very good. My French is terrible, as it's only my fifth language.
@@MarkusTravels that's terrible, I hope you speak more than 5 languages to make up for that :p
Its actually the old 1st class as i do believe the new 1st class hasen't been fully deployed yet.
I sure want to try the new product soon!
@@MarkusTravels From what I checked it’s for the tgv named « TGV Océane ». You can do some search about it (if you want). And I tried once and personally I liked it. The best thing is (if you have it) is to check the train information to see if it’s a normal duplex tgv you got or the Oceane (I’m pretty all of the Oceane tgv got the new 1st class but I’m not sure but I do think it’s for that TGV in particular as others one (especially the one going from Paris to Lyon will be replaced by the TGVM once it releases)
Thanks for a nice video. I don't like the footrest either. Simple don´t understand them, on train or in an aircraft. Tack
Me neither. But some people must love them I'm sure!
thank you for suffering so that we shall not suffer.
Well, it wasn't that bad! Just some details were not up to specs.
That’s not a new model
Indeed. But the InOui branding was new to me.
foot rests are for short people, or those with short legs
Good explanation!
I'm 1m78 or 5'10" - average length legs... I do like the foot rest to change the position of my legs on long trips.
This train is not new at all
You're right!
Ot seems old and dirty
The first class on OBB OR SBB are much better
Some of the SBB intercity trains are also really old. Video coming soon!
