The Nagoya Municipal Subway N3000 series (名古屋市交通局N3000形?) is a rapid transit electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the Transportation Bureau City of Nagoya on the Nagoya Subway Tsurumai Line in Japan since March 2012.

As of 1 April 2015, the fleet consists of four six-car sets, N3101 to N3104, formed as follows, with three motored ("M") cars and three non-powered trailer ("T") cars. (Weights are for the aluminium-bodied first set, N3101.)

The M1, M2, and M3 cars are each equipped with a single-arm pantograph.

The trains feature longitudinal bench seating throughout with blue moquette seat covers, and red moquette for priority seating at the ends of cars. The moquette incorporates a pattern based on Arimatsu tie-dyeing designs for which Nagoya is famous. 17-inch wide-aspect LCD passenger information displays are provided above alternate doorways, with four per car.

The build histories of individual sets are as follows. Set N3101 has an aluminium body, while sets N3102 onward have stainless steel bodies.
