The Tokyo Metro 16000 series (東京メトロ16000系, Tōkyō Metoro 16000-kei) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the Tokyo subway operator Tokyo Metro on the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line in Tokyo, Japan, since November 2010.

Operations[]

The 16000 series sets are used on the following lines.

Design[]

The 16000 series uses Toshiba-branded synchronous motors with permanent magnets, offering 10% energy savings compared to the motors used in earlier 10000 series trains.[3][4]

The first 12 sets were manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Hyogo Prefecture, but sets 16113 to 16128 were built by Hitachi in Yamaguchi Prefecture.[5][6]

Sets from 16106 onward feature a modified front end design with the emergency door offset to the left-hand side away from the driver's position.[7]

  • Set 16103 in July 2011, with centrally-positioned cab-end door

  • Set 16108 in September 2011, with offset cab-end door

  • Set 16122 in February 2016, showing the livery applied to sets delivered from 2015 onward
