Yes. Initially they'll always be in coupled pairs (they each only have one cab and will be back-to-back for dual ended operation) but the system is built to ultimately handle triples.

Are you sure they aren’t ready for 4-car trains? Or maybe I’m just remembering Bombardier’s marketing materials?

I wonder if they’ll buy any 0-cab vehicles for use in the middle of the trains?
