The Deutsche Bahn Class 101 was equipped with state-of-the-art technology as the successor to the tried-and-tested but technically obsolete Class 103. The three-phase asynchronous motors with single-axle drive had a continuous output of 6,400 kW and a starting tractive effort of 300 kN. This enabled them to reach a top speed of 220 km/h. A total of 145 Class 101 locomotives were brought into service between summer 1996 and the end of 1999. The first three locomotives were still painted in the Orient Red colour scheme.
