The SFC120-V series, also known as CLI-125 series,[3] is an electric multiple unit (EMU) manufactured by CRRC Qingdao Sifang in Qingdao, Shandong, China for the Indonesian commuter railway operator KAI Commuter.

The EMU is planned to be operated by KAI Commuter on the Bogor and Cikarang Line.[4] The first three SFC120-V series entered service on 1 June, 2025 on the Bogor and Cikarang Line.[5]

History

The SFC120-V series was ordered following the controversy over the import of used EMUs in 2023, which led to the cancellation of second-hand train imports from Japan. Through Government Funding (PMN), the government helped finance the purchase of this series.[6][7]

Initially, KAI Commuter ordered only three sets of the SFC120-V series in January 2024, with the contract worth 783 billion rupiah (49.7 million USD).[8] However, in July 2024, the order was increased by eight more sets. In total, KAI Commuter has ordered 11 sets of the SFC120-V series from CRRC Qingdao Sifang, with each set consisting of 12 cars.[9]

Delivery

KAI Commuter received the first trainset on 31 January 2025 through Tanjung Priok Port, Jakarta.[10] The next day, on 1 February, KAI Commuter delivered the trains to the Depok EMU Depot through Pasoso Station and Tanah Abang Station using a CC206 class locomotive.[11] The batch 2 delivery of two trainsets arrived at Tanjung Priok on 11 March, with both trainsets delivered to the Depok EMU Depot via rail by 13 March.[12]

Trials

To assess its operational feasibility and prepare for type test certification by the Ministry of Transportation, the SFC120-V series EMU has been undergoing trial run since 10 February 2025, with trials is currently taking place on the Jakarta Kota–Bogor railway line after undergone a rollover test in China before exported to Indonesia.[13]

Entering service

On 1 June 2025, KAI Commuter officially ran 3 of the 7 trains of the SFC120-V series at Bogor Line and Cikarang Loop Line with Bogor line getting 2 trains (TS 1 and TS 2) and Cikarang Loop Line 1 train (TS 3). [14]
