In May 2022, it was announced by Trenitalia's CEO Luigi Corradi that, starting from summer 2022, the Frecciargento brand will be phased out. The trains that operate as Frecciargento will be incorporated, with a change of livery, into the Frecciarossa service. However in November 2023, it has been announced that some Frecciabianca services will be upgraded to Frecciaargento, therefore keeping the brand for the time being.
