The Tokyo Metro 8000 series (東京メトロ8000系, Tōkyō Metoro 8000-kei) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by Tokyo subway operator Tokyo Metro on the Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line in Tokyo, Japan, since 1981.
A total of 190 cars (19 ten-car sets) were built between 1980 and 1994 by Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Kinki Sharyo, Nippon Sharyo, and Tokyu Car Corporation.
Technical details
The train shares some design similarities with the earlier Tokyo Metro 6000 series on the Chiyoda Line and the Tokyo Metro 7000 series on the Fukutoshin Line, mainly the asymmetrical front and bodyshell with some cosmetic changes.
