Pros

On time

Real fast

Clean

Fixed seat

Cons

Wifi somewhat unstable

Not so good selection and quality of the on-board bistro offer

On my journey from Karlsruhe to Marseille, I travelled this route to Strasbourg in the first hour, which I would consider relatively fast. The train left Karlsruhe on time and also arrived in Strasbourg on time. Everything was clean and everyone has a fixed seat on a TGV, which saves a lot of stress when looking for a free seat. Unfortunately, the wifi was a bit unstable and the on-board bistro could not compete with an ICE in terms of selection and quality.
