Self-steering axles similar to those of the 1000 series are fitted to the bogies.[3]

Formation

The trains are formed as six-car sets.[3]

Interior

The seating accommodation consists of longitudinal seating.[3] The cars are air conditioned, with feature round windows at the car ends. They also have power outlets for passengers to charge their mobile devices.[6]
