The fleet consists of two single-car units branded "Allegra". The general design of the trains was overseen by Noriaki Okabe Architecture Network, with the two vehicles on order costing a total of approximately 800 million yen.[4][3]
Externally, the trains are finished in the standard Hakone Tozan Railway livery of "Vermillion Hakone" with silver highlights.[3]
Passenger accommodation consists mostly of four-person seating bays, with a wheelchair space at the Gora end of the cars.[4] Seating is provided for 36 passengers, including five pairs of tip-up seats near the doorways.[3] Total capacity is 75, including standing passengers.[3] The trains use LED lighting throughout.[3]
The first unit was delivered from Kawasaki Heavy Industries in Kobe in April 2014,[5] with the second unit delivered in August.[6]
In May 2015, the 3000 series was awarded the 2015 Laurel Prize, presented annually by the Japan Railfan Club.[7] A presentation ceremony was held at Gora Station on 8 November 2015.[8]
Two new units, 3003 and 3004, were delivered in May 2019.[9]
