Rolling stock
Currently eight types of trams are operating in Wrocław: Konstal 105Na, Protram 204 WrAs, Protram 205 WrAs, Škoda 16 T, Škoda 19 T, Pesa Twist, Moderus Beta and Moderus Gamma. The 105N type wagons are subjected to various upgrades (and after the upgrade they are marked 105NWr).
In the period from 1991 to 2004, no new trams were bought; only repairs and upgrades of models Konstal 105N and Konstal 105Na were performed. During 1978–1993, six two-wagon Protram 204 WrAs and ten low-floor Protram 205 WrAs vehicles were bought, all produced by RMT Protram Wrocław. In March 2005, Wrocław decided to purchase eight Skoda 16T vehicles. This was later expanded to 17 vehicles, all of which were delivered between December 2006 and November 2007.
In 2009 Wrocław bought 31 Skoda 19T trams to operate on new PLUS lines connecting Gaj and Sępolno to the stadium, which was built to host the Euro 2012 games. In 2014 the concept of PLUS lines was scrapped. As of 2024 these are the only bidirectional trams operated by MPK Wrocław, and as such they are the only trams that can operate on lines 18 and 21.
In recent years, purchases and modernisation of rolling stock have been used to withdraw and scrap older trams like Protram 105NWr or Protram 204WrAs.
