The SNCF established the Téoz system in 2003 as an attempt to bring certain key routes up to the same standards as TGVs where high-speed lines are not available, leaving ordinary Corail trains to serve the rest of the non high-speed intercity and interregional network. It was merged into the Intercités brand in 2012.

==Service== Téoz services were not universally liked by the general public as they required compulsory reservation but went little faster (up to 200 km/h or 125 mph) than the traditional services they replaced. In January 2012, it was officially announced that the Teoz brand would abandoned; all SNCF long-distance non high-speed services have since been assimilated into the Intercités brand, along with the overnight sleeper trains which have also lost their previous branding (Lunéa).
