Premium Car introduction[edit]

From 31 January 2021, all sets' sixth cars were replaced in service with newly built Premium Cars at a total cost of 1.2 billion yen.[5] The new cars allow premium services to be provided on all daytime express trains.[6] While the outgoing cars' future was undecided at the time, it was confirmed that they will not be scrapped.[4]

The 3000 series' Premium Cars share some attributes with those of the 8000 series fleet, such as the golden passenger door on each side and Nanoe X air purifiers. However, they differ from the 8000 series' Premium Cars as they feature a seat pitch of 1,040 millimetres (41 in), an increase of 20 mm (0.79 in) over those of the 8000 series.[6] They also feature compact "Infoverre Window Series Bar Type" external LCD destination displays.[7]
