Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has developed a high-speed automated guideway
transit (AGT) system with a maximum speed of 120 km/h, which is approximately twice as fast as
existing AGT systems. The high-speed AGT system, as a result of a newly-developed high-speed
bogie, attains not only increased speed, but also further reduction of vibration and noise. Its
sophisticated exterior design that gives the impression of speed, coupled with an interior design
filled with urban sensibility, heralds the next-generation AGT system. This paper describes vehicles
of the high-speed AGT system.
