Links to Bluesky posts with three sets of photos (by Seat 61) from Avanti's Evero train - and a page on their Evero trains from Avanti themselves.
Also, a page on them from 'Show me the journey' which usefully shows that like rest of the class 80x the cycle storage may be a struggle - and also, these being 5 carriage sets, with two joined together, this means the need for staffing - train managers for both sets and also to provision the pair of on board shops that that implies
Apologies if everyone's familiar with these. The sets of bays-of-four must bring the benefit of more flexibility with luggage.
When the time comes to refit the train interiors on the current west country fleet, there will be options and choices. The current GWR fit out delivers 326 / 302 seats - while an Evero settles on 274 per five car set.

Seats grouped around tables and which line-up with windows? It'll never catch on

They’re largely replacing the fleet of 5-car trains Class 221s which have run under the same ‘double crew’ arrangements for many years, though if it’s the same as GWR you don’t need two train managers, just one TM and one ‘competent person’, usually the lead host.
There are also the ten 807s being built which are 7-car units.
