With a homogeneous loading of 14-ton containers, the capacity is around 2600 TEU. 300 connections for refrigerated containers are available. All ships have superstructures three-quarters aft and have five holds equipped with cell guides , the nine hatches of which are closed with pontoon hatch covers. Four of the holds are in front of the deckhouse, one behind. The ship's propulsion system consists of a two-stroke diesel engine that acts directly on the fixed propeller. The main engine model used is the HHI-Sulzer 8RTA 84C with 32,421 kW, which enables a speed of up to 23 knots. The berthing and casting off maneuvers are supported by a bow thruster .
