The three-phase asynchronous motors with single-axle drive had a continuous output of 6400 kW and a starting tractive force of 300 kN. This enabled it to reach a top speed of 220 km/h. A total of 145 units of class 101 were put into service between summer 1996 and the end of 1999. The first three locomotives were still painted in the oriental red colour scheme.
