The Tokyo Metro 16000 series (東京地下鉄16000系, Tōkyō Chikatetsu 16000-kei?) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the Tokyo subway operator Tokyo Metro on the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line in Tokyo, Japan, since November 2010. As of 1 April 2015, sixteen 10-car sets are in operation, with further sets on order.

The 16000 series sets are used on the following lines.

The 16000 series uses Toshiba PMSM (permanent magnet synchronous motors), offering 10% energy savings compared to the motors used in earlier 10000 series trains.

The first 12 sets were manufactured by Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Hyogo Prefecture, but sets 16113 to 16116 were built by Hitachi in Yamaguchi Prefecture.

Sets from 16106 onward feature a modified front end design with the emergency door offset to the left-hand side away from the driver's position.
