==Rebranding== Since July 2017, TGV services are gradually being rebranded as '''[[TGV inOui]]''' and '''[[Ouigo]]''' in preparation for the opening of the French HSR market to competition.<ref>{{Cite web |title=SNCF to rebrand TGV services as 'inOui'|url=https://www.railwaygazette.com/sncf-to-rebrand-tgv-services-as-inoui/44570.article|date=2017-05-27 |access-date=2023-02-12|website=Railway Gazette International}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2017-05-30|title=SNCF rebrands TGV as "inOui"|url=https://www.railjournal.com/passenger/high-speed/sncf-rebrands-tgv-as-inoui/|access-date=2021-08-04|website=International Railway Journal|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2017-05-30|title=SNCF confirms new InOui name for TGV|url=https://www.businesstraveller.com/business-travel/2017/05/30/sncf-confirms-new-inoui-name-tgv/|access-date=2021-08-04|website=businesstraveller.com}}</ref> === TGV inOui === {{Main|TGV inOui}} TGV inOui is SNCF's premium high-speed rail service. The name inOui was chosen because it sounds like the French word ''inouï'' meaning "extraordinary" (or more literally, "unheard of").<ref>{{Cite web|title=Why we renamed TGV service 'inOui'|url=https://www.connexionfrance.com/People/Interviews/Why-we-renamed-TGV-service-inOui|website=The Connexion|access-date=2020-05-28|archive-date=5 February 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210205093513/https://www.connexionfrance.com/People/Interviews/Why-we-renamed-TGV-service-inOui|url-status=dead}}</ref> === Ouigo === {{Main|Ouigo}} [[Ouigo]] is SNCF's low-cost high-speed rail service. Trains have a high-density one-class configuration and reduced on-board services. The services traditionally operate from less busy secondary stations, sometimes outside of the city centre.<ref>{{Cite web|title=SNCF: les TGV low-cost Ouigo désormais au départ de Paris|url=https://bfmbusiness.bfmtv.com/entreprise/sncf-les-tgv-low-cost-ouigo-desormais-au-depart-de-paris-1323918.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171210210122/http://bfmbusiness.bfmtv.com/entreprise/sncf-les-tgv-low-cost-ouigo-desormais-au-depart-de-paris-1323918.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=10 December 2017|access-date=2020-02-15|website=BFM BUSINESS|language=fr}}</ref> The literal translation of the brand name is "yes go", but the name is also a play on the English homonym, "we go".
