    In the 1980s, the DR purchased electric dual-mode locomotives with the objective of enhancing its ability to manage cross-border traffic operations and the steadily growing traffic volume on the lines between the GDR and Czechoslovakia. However, due to a lack of experience in dual voltage technology (GDR: AC voltage 15 kV/16? Hz, CSSR: DC voltage 3 kV) and the full capacity production at the electric locomotive manufacturer LEW in Hennigsdorf, the locomotives were built based on the CSD series ES 499.1. The Skoda locomotive factory had no prior experience in manufacturing locomotives for the AC system 15 kV/16? Hz. Consequently, the AC equipment components were sourced from the GDR. The CSD's demand led to a double order for Skoda, resulting in 15 locomotives of Class 372 and 20 locomotives of Class 230 for the DR. At the DB AG, the locomotives, with an hourly output of 3,260 kW and a maximum speed of 120 km/h, were renamed Class 180.
