Faster Running Speeds Technologies for stable high-speed operations have been developed
Compact, lightweight, and high-power drive system
Three types of drive system have been developed to realize increase in power and reduction in size and weight at the same time. They have been evaluated through test runs.

Stable high speed current collection
In order to ensure stable current collection even during high-speed train operation, “multi-segment slider” – a pantograph slider split into multiple segments, each being supported by a spring – has been developed. This slider flexibly follows the overhead contact lines, supporting stable high-speed current collection.
