Default Crossrail trains

Are they going to be dual voltage so they could potentially venture onto
the 3rd rail network beyond Abbey Wood one day , or are they only ever going
to be AC?

Like all modern electric units, presumably they will be capable of
easy conversion to third rail if needed, but I assume they will be
delivered as 25kv ac only.
