Hyundai Rotem supplied 40 electric multiple units (EMUs) to Protrans BC for operation on the SkyTrain's Canada Line in Vancouver, British Columbia. SNC Lavalin, parent company of Protrans BC, awarded Hyundai Rotem the contract on November 25, 2005.[1] The cars were built in South Korea and shipped to Canada; the first of which arrived in March 2008.

Like the rest of the SkyTrain system, train operation is fully automated and managed by Thales SelTrac Communications-Based Train Control. Unlike the rest of the system, the Rotem EMUs use conventional AC traction motors instead of linear induction motors. The Rotem cars are also larger than the existing cars from Bombardier. Two cars, constructed from stainless steel, make up one trainset. The white, blue and green livery was chosen to reflect the mountains, forests and trees of the Lower Mainland.[2]
