CAF has signed a contract with the City Council of Naples, the body managing public transport in the city, for the supply of an additional seven metro trains. This order adds to the twelve metro trains CAF is already manufacturing for Naples. Once ready, Azienda Napoletana Mobilità will be the operator.

Greater Naples has around three million residents. There are currently two metro lines serving the city. They are lines 1 and 6. Of these two, line 6 is currently being extended.
