The KiHa 25 (キハ25形?) is a diesel multiple unit (DMU) train type operated by the Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central) in Japan, since March 2011. Following electrification of the Taketoyo Line in 2015, they replaced KiHa 40 series DMUs on the Takayama and Taita Lines.

As of 1 April 2015, the fleet consists of 26 cars, formed as five two-car first-batch sets (P1 to P5), and eight two-car second-batch sets (P101 to P108).

The 1st-batch sets are formed as follows.

The KiHa 25-0 cars have a universal access toilet.

The car bodies are constructed of stainless steel and are based on JR Central's 313 series electric multiple unit design. The beading on the lower bodyside was discontinued on the second-batch units, giving flush body sides. The second-batch units have cushions on the front-end skirts to prevent damage from collisions with deer.

Seating in the first-batch units (P1 to P5) consists of transverse flip-over seats arranged 2+2 abreast, with interiors based on the 313-1300 series EMU design. The second-batch sets (P101 onward) have longitudinal seating.

The first two sets, P1 and P2, were delivered from the Nippon Sharyo factory in Toyokawa to Nagoya on 10 November 2010. The remaining three sets, P3 to P5, were delivered on 23 February 2011.
