The Tokyu 6020 series is a Japanese city commuter electric multiple unit operated by the Tokyu Corporation since March 2018 on the Tokyu Ōimachi Line.
History[]
The 6020 series sets were designed to aid with the increasing passenger numbers on the Tokyu Ōimachi Line to supplement the 6000 series cars on the line. Two sets were built by J-TREC at their Niitsu Works in early 2018. Operations began on 28 March 2018. Car 3 of both sets was converted into a "Q-Seat" car (reconfigurable seats for different purposes) in November 2018.
Nineteen more sets, formed into five car formations, were ordered in 2025 to replace the 9000 and 9020 series trains expected to be resold to the Seibu Railway. The first set, 6151, was delivered in March 2025.
Design[]
- Main article: Tokyu 2020 series
The 6020 series cars use a contemporary design featuring a rounded front in the image of a "confused face". The sets were designed to harmonize with the towns and stations alongside the line, with "town development" taken into consideration. The design of the sets was overseen by design firm Tanseisha.
Specifications[]
Construction of the cars is of an aluminum alloy based on J-TREC's sustina concept. The sets are based on the Tokyu 2020 series which are in turn based on the JR East E235 series cars and thus share many mechanicals. The sets use 2-level Mitsubishi pure silicon carbide-based MOSFET variable frequency drive traction systems which produce a hissing noise.
