Capacity of the train is 300 passengers per car (approx. 1,200 passengers). In comparison of Singapore's North South Line NSL and East West Line EWL trains (Siemens C651), they carries around 1,920 passengers (320 passengers per car).
Thus, it clearly shows that SBK Line will only carry 93% of the SMRT train capacity.
Comparison table
6-car CSR Zhuzhou LRV trainsets ¹ – 1,308 passengers
4-car Bombardier Innovia Metro ART 200 ² – 944 passengers (236 pax per car)
MRT Corp Sdn Bhd will have to answer why are we only using 4-car trainsets and not 6-car as other major MRTs system are using and the reduced capacity is only marginally higher than a cheaper LRT system.
Remarks
¹ Sri Petaling Line
² Kelana Jaya Line
