The CRH5 Hexie (simplified Chinese: 和谐号; traditional Chinese: 和諧號; pinyin: Héxié Hào; lit. 'Harmony') is an electric multiple unit high-speed train in use with China Railway High-speed in the northern regions of the People's Republic of China. The CRH5 is based on the ETR-600 New Pendolino used in Italy.
The CRH5 are non-tilting trains, developed for the Chinese Railways and whose technology has been transferred to local manufacturers.[1] The CRH5 operate steadily at 250 kilometres per hour (155 mph).[2][3][4]
