The Namo Bharat is an Indian Electric multiple unit (EMU) train, specially built for RapidX (Regional Rapid Transit services). The train was designed by the French rolling stock manufacturer Alstom at its engineering centre in Hyderabad, Telangana and was manufactured in Savli, Gujarat. The train has an aerodynamic design which reduces the drag when it travels. The train has a design speed of 180 km/h (110 mph) and is operated at a speed of 160 km/h (99 mph)

As the RapidX service was conceived, there was a need for a new semi-high-speed trainset, specifically built for the purpose of semi-high-speed regional rail travel. In accordance with Make in India initiative, the train sets were set to be locally built after NCRTC opened the tenders for the same in 2019.In early 2020, NCRTC finalised the procurement of train set, which were set to be manufactured by Bombardier Transportation in Savli. The tender was finalised for the train to have 50% of the local components as opposed to the original requirement of 75% in line with the Make in India initiative.Later in the year, the train's design was unveiled to the public. The stainless steel body of the train was designed to have a maximum speed of 180 km/h.

On 19 October 2023, the trainset was renamed from RapidX to Namo Bharat.
On 21 October 2023, the trainset made its commercial debut in the Duhai - Sahibabad section

Exterior
The train is designed to have a stainless steel body with an aerodynamic nose cone to reduce the air drag resistance produced while travelling at higher speeds. The train is relatively lighter in weight thanks to its stainless steel body. For easier entry and exit, each car is equipped with six doors, three on each side, excluding the Business class which has four doors, two on each side. Each car has double glazed, tempered safety glass windows.

Interior
The train has a 2x2 seating arrangement with adequate legroom for the passengers. The aisles have grab handles and poles for standing passengers during the peak hours. Since it is built for regional rail service, it has an overhead luggage rack. When it comes to digital features the train has on-board Wi-Fi, a public announcement and display system, an infotainment display, a dynamic route map display and emergency communication facilities. For efficient consumption of energy, the trainsets include ambient lighting and temperature control systems. The train is also accessible with a dedicated wheelchair space. When it comes to safety, the train is equipped with a fire & smoke detector, CCTV, fire extinguisher and door status indicator along with innovative Train Control Monitoring System technology, and its predictive and condition-based monitoring features.

Technology
The trainset is equipped with a new signalling technology called "ETCS L3 hybrid technology over LTE" which helps contribute to safety, facilitating interoperability, reducing wait time and enabling efficiency. There are plans to equip the trainset with Automatic Train Operation (ATO) over Long Term Evolution (LTE) in the future to further increase network performance and capacity.
