Thirteen six-car sets were built based on the New 20 series design to replace the older 30 series sets on the Tanimachi Line.[citation needed]
A total of 12 ten-car 30000 series sets are also on order for use on the Midōsuji Line, with the first set entering service on 10 December 2011, replacing the older 10 series sets.[2][3] These 30000 series sets were the final new subway rolling stock to be ordered by the Osaka Municipal Transportation Bureau before it was privatised in 2018.
