In Service : December 1997
Operator : Bureau of Transportation, Tokyo Metropolitan Government
This train was produced to operate on the Tokyo Subway Line No. 12, a small bore tunnel subway. It has a fixed 8-car 8M formation. The car body is made of aluminum-alloy with large extruded structure members, and an IGBT inverter and 3 phase linear induction motors are employed. New technologies including a predictive fuzzy control automatic train operation (ATO) system, a wayside to train image and data transmission system, and an autonomous decentralized train information (ATI) system have been introduced to enable one-man operation.
