SŽ series 310 is a high-speed tilting EMU used on the InterCitySlovenija premium train service in Slovenia, operated by Slovenske železnice since September 24, 2000. It is based on the Italian ETR 460 commonly known as Pendolino. The train is capable of reaching a maximum speed of 200 km/h, and uses 3 kV DC overhead wire.

InterCitySlovenija links the major cities of Slovenia in one line: Ljubljana, Celje and Maribor, with frequent service that acts as a high-speed shuttle. Tilting trains can reach a maximum speed of 160 km/h on the sections Maribor - Pragersko, Pragersko - Slovenska Bistrica and Grobelno - Sentjur.[3] The train is made up of three cars: two 2nd class cars and one 1st class car. The trains provide disabled access, as well as an onboard Wi-Fi and a snack bar.

Slovenske železnice bought in the year 2000 three trainsets, which currently operate on the Ljubljana - Maribor route.

One SŽ series 310 trainset was also used on international services, connecting Venice Santa Lucia to Ljubljana as Eurocity 50/51 Casanova from December 14, 2003,[4] to April 1, 2008.[5][6] From December 12, 2004, to December 10, 2005, this service was extended to Maribor, with Intercity connections from and to Graz in Austria.[7][8]
