Technical details

Electrical parts

All trains use IGBT controls and use passive cooling with a heat pipe. The trains are also equipped with regenerative braking, reducing energy consumption and simplifying train inspection, and they use electric door motors.

All trains use LED headlights. There is a third headlight in the compartment that houses the train run number and destination sign.

Interior design

To be added
