The E5 series (Japanese: E5系, Hepburn: E5-kei) and the related H5 series (Japanese: H5系, Hepburn: H5-kei) are Japanese Shinkansen high-speed train types built by Hitachi Rail and Kawasaki Heavy Industries.
The E5 series is operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East); it was introduced on Tohoku Shinkansen services on 5 March 2011[6] and on Hokkaido Shinkansen services on 26 March 2016. A total of 59 10-car sets are on order, with three sets in service in time for the start of new Hayabusa services to Shin-Aomori in March 2011.[7]
The H5 series, a cold-weather derivative of the E5 series, is operated by Hokkaido Railway Company (JR Hokkaido); it has been in use on Tohoku and Hokkaido Shinkansen services since 26 March 2016.[8][9] Ordered in February 2014, a total of four 10-car sets were built by Hitachi and Kawasaki Heavy Industries at a cost of approximately ¥18 billion (US$169.9 million).[9] The first two sets were delivered in October 2014.
