KTM 83 Class EMU
The 83 Class is a 3-car electric multiple unit (EMU) operating for KTM Komuter. They can be found running on the KTM Komuter Northern Sector, KTM Komuter Klang Valley Sector and SkyPark Link. They are built by Hyundai Precision of South Korea and Marubeni of Japan.
The 83 Class EMU featured a mixture of longitudinal and transverse seating during its inception. The seating configuration for surviving sets was converted to full longitudinal seating to increase the carrying capacity of the train. In late-2015, two sets (EMU 25 & EMU 33) were refurbished to full transverse seating with seats salvaged from 81 Class EMUs to provide a greater level of comfort for passsengers travelling longer distances on the KTM Komuter Northern Sector. These two sets are now serving on the SkyPark Link with a new external livery.

All trains (EMU 19 – EMU 40) except EMU25, EMU29, EMU30 & EMU33
The 83 Class EMUs are the primary rolling stock found on the KTM Komuter Northern Sector, with 92 Class supplementing train services whenever there are insufficient rolling stock to serve on the line (daily services as of now).

Longitudinal seating allows for a greater carrying capacity on board the 83 Class EMU. All 83 Class EMU sets running on the KTM Komuter Northern Sector have a similar interior.

KTM Komuter Klang Valley Sector • Mixed Longitudinal and Transverse Seating
The 83 Class EMUs were the first to have a mixture of longitudinal and transverse seating, making it the first KTM Komuter train set to feature longitudinal seating. It allowed a good mix of seat choices for passengers, as those travelling long distances may sit in the transverse seats in the centre of the car for greater comfort, and for short-distance travel, on the longitudinal seats near the door for a quicker exit.
All 83 Class EMU sets no longer feature this original seat layout.

EMU 23, EMU 25, EMU29, EMU30 & EMU33
The 83 Class EMUs are the sole rolling stock found on the SkyPark Link, with a repainted exterior and refurbished seats on all five dedicated SkyPark Link sets. Two types of distinct interiors can be found, namely, full transverse seating with salvaged seats from 81 Class EMUs and full longitudinal seating as per the existing layout. Each set serving on the SkyPark Link also has a different interior combination as shown below.
