Exterior

The car bodies are constructed of stainless steel and are based on JR Central's 313 series electric multiple unit design.[9] The beading on the lower bodyside was discontinued on the second-batch units, giving flush body sides.[10] The second-batch units have cushions on the front-end skirts to prevent damage from collisions with deer.[8]

Interior

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.[3] The second-batch sets (P101 onward) have longitudinal seating.[8]

History

The first two sets, P1 and P2, were delivered from the Nippon Sharyo factory in Toyokawa to Nagoya on 10 November 2010.[11] The remaining three sets, P3 to P5, were delivered on 23 February 2011.[12]

The type entered service on the Taketoyo Line from 1 March 2011.[13]

A second batch of KiHa 25 series trains is on order by JR Central, with a total of 52 new vehicles scheduled to be introduced between fiscal 2014 and 2015 on the Takayama Main Line, Taita Line, Kisei Main Line, and Sangu Line, at a cost of approximately 12 billion yen, replacing all remaining former JNR-era DMUs, including KiHa 40, KiHa 47, and KiHa 48 types.[14] The new batch of trains will include LED interior lighting.[14]

The first three new second-batch sets were delivered from the Nippon Sharyo factory in Toyokawa in September 2014.[10]
