The Tokyu 7000 series (東急7000系 Tōkyū 7000-kei?) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by Tokyu Corporation on the Ikegami and Tamagawa lines in Japan since December 2007.
Based on the 5000 series design, cars are 18 metres long and have three sets of doors per side.
These trains use a Train Automatic Stopping Controller (TASC) system allowing them to stop automatically at all stations.
As of 1 April 2013, the fleet consists of seven 3-car sets, formed as follows.
Car 2 is fitted with two single-arm pantographs.
Seating is predominantly arranged longitudinally, with some transverse seating bays in the centre car.
