Most likely. Apparently they don’t really believe in padding anymore because of something about fire safety. There’s also a lot of longitudinal seating (seats that go along each wall, as opposed to the traditional seats jutting out from the wall style), and the traditional seats look smaller (though the aisles between seats are now wider)
I’d hazard a guess they’ll feel similar to the short distance/commuter vlocities (they look like this). Not very comfortable, and kinda like they put concrete in the seats
So long as they are wider than the HCMT seats it’ll be off to a good start. 2 asian school girls would sit shoulder to shoulder. I’m not a big dude, and I dont fit. Sitting next to a big dude is next to impossible.
I’m not certain, they’re fairly tight lipped about it, and from a quick google search, seem to refuse to acknowledge that they’ve removed most of the padding at all. Fire safety is what I’ve heard though, and I believe was cited in the UK when they did something similar

Agreed.

I thought padding was a thing of the past because people are jerks and cut it up?
