The Kintetsu 7020 series is a Japanese city commuter electric multiple unit operated by the Kintetsu Railway on the Kintetsu Keihanna Line and the Osaka Metro Chūō Line from December 2004.

History

The 7020 series sets were introduced as supplementary sets to complement the 7000 series sets to cope with additional passengers with the extension of the Keihanna Line. A total of four sets were manufactured from 2004 to 2005.

Design

The 7020 series sets feature a conventional front end with two side-mounted headlights. The sets are painted in Pearl White with Solar Orange and Aqua Blue highlights; this is a very different livery from most of Kintetsu's other rolling stock.

The appearance of the 7020 series sets are largely identical to that of the 7000 series sets but feature split side windows, a slightly different font for the "KINTETSU" wordmark on the side of the cars and slightly different placement of the front windshield wiper. The sets use technology introduced with the Series 21 family of trains introduced by Kintetsu since 2000; they are officially not classified as Series 21 trains however.

Specifications

Construction is of steel. The sets use Mitsubishi IGBT variable frequency drives which produce a hissing sound.

Trivia

• These were the last new type of commuter train developed and designed by Kintetsu until 2024 with the introduction of the 8A series.
