The '''Bombardier Innovia APM 100''' (formerly known as the '''CX-100''') is an automated people mover (APM) rolling stock first developed by Adtranz (now Bombardier Transportation), intended mainly for airport connections and light rail in towns. They are operated by Automatic Train Control (ATC), making it fully automatic and driverless. 19 units are in service on the Bukit Panjang LRT, and more are formerly used on the Changi Airport Skytrain until March 2006.


These units (also referred to as vehicles) are rubber-tired, running on concrete tracks and are fitted with windows which turns near opaque within 6 metres of residential buildings.

Bombardier Innovia C801 (Bombardier Innovia APM 100 (formerly known as the CX-100)) is an automated people mover (APM) train built by Adtranz (now Bombardier Transportation) for the use on the Bukit Panjang LRT line and the former Singapore Changi Airport Skytrain until March 2006. These vehicles are mainly for airport connections and light rail in towns, operating by Automatic Train Control (ATC), making it fully automatic and driverless.

The vehicles are also similar to the vehicles formerly used at Singapore Changi Airport Skytrain system in the early 1990s, jointly built by Westinghouse and Adtranz (acquired by Bombardier).
