In December 2016, Swiss Federal Railways initiated its largest train refurbishment project to date. The entire IC 2000 fleet (a total of 341 coaches) will be refurbished by the end of 2024 at SBB's Olten facility. The refurbished coaches are expected to operate until 2043, combined with refurbished Re 460 locomotives that are being rebuilt in SBB's Yverdon-les-Bains facility. After the renovation, the coaches will be rebranded as '''IC 2020'''. The refreshed livery has a different appearance compared to the original fleet: the coaches are white, with black bands across the window sections and undercarriage. A red stripe runs above the upper deck, and then covers the front section of the driving car. The refurbished coaches also have a new interior design. In contrast to dark tones of the original design, the refurbished interior has brighter tones and materials. 40 first class coaches will include conference tables for business meetings, replacing standard 4/2 person compartments. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://news.sbb.ch/artikel/86661/fernverkehr-die-ersten-ic2000-fahrzeuge-sind-komplett-modernisiert|title=Fernverkehr: Die ersten IC2000-Fahrzeuge sind komplett modernisiert|access-date=2020-05-21|archive-date=2021-01-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210127174816/https://news.sbb.ch/artikel/86661/fernverkehr-die-ersten-ic2000-fahrzeuge-sind-komplett-modernisiert|url-status=dead}}</ref>
