The ETS is an acronym for the Electric Train Service, which is a new electrified high-speed commuter rail service from Ipoh to Kuala Lumpur and Seremban in Malaysia. It was introduced by Keretapi Tanah Melayu on 12 August 2010. This service runs through three states and one federal territory, all of which are located on the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia. There are nineteen stations along the route: eight are in the state of Perak, five are in the state of Selangor, four are in Kuala Lumpur and two are in the state of Negeri Sembilan. Currently, there are 3 types of service on the line: ETS Platinum, ETS Gold and ETS Silver.

All five train sets were designed by the Marubeni Corporation, but were built by Hyunai Rotem of Korea and Mitsubishi Electric of Japan. The design of the train sets follows very closely the IE 22000 Class of Ireland's InterCity trains. The major difference between the trainsets in Ireland and those used in Malaysia is that the Irish trainsets operate on a broad gauge rail while Malaysia uses meter gauge rails.

The maximum operational speed of the ETS fleet is 140 km/h. However, the ETS trains are designed to travel up to 160 km/h. The passenger capacity of each train is 350. Each train consists of six carriages and has a total length of 138 m and weight of 231.8 tons. Each carriage is 22.95 m long, 2.75 m wide and 4 m high.
