Trolejbusy VETRA ELR byly stavěny za využití podvozku a karoserie autobusu Berliet PLR.
Pro dopravce toto řešení znamenalo výhodu unifikace náhradních dílů mezi autobusy a trolejbusy.
Saint-Étienne si stejně jako Marseille a Nice objednalo trolejbusy ELR 10 tj. se silnějším motorem (140HP≈103kW).
Po roce 1975 došlo k odstranění stanoviště průvodčího u zadních dveří.
Trolejbus byl vyřazen bez rekonstrukce, které jinak proběhly na vozech stejného typu,
tj. zůstaly mu zachovány zadní dveře i původní lakování.

Trolleybuses VETRA ELR were built using the chassis and body of the bus Berliet PLR .
For carriers, this solution had the advantage of unifying spare parts between buses and trolleybuses.
Saint-Étienne, like Marseille and Nice, ordered ELR 10 trolleybuses with a more powerful engine (140HP≈103kW).
After 1975, conductor's seat at the rear door was removed.
The trolleybus was withdrawn from operation without reconstruction,
which was made on other vehicles of the same type,
ie the rear door and the original paint scheme have been preserved.
