 This system is based on the old TeufortLRT (TLRT) and has been customized for left-hand traffic. The vehicles were originally S43-Tec LRVs used in the TeufortLRT (TLRT), with the transition to MTR4, LIGHTACE has been upgraded to accommodate MTR4, and S43-Tec LRT has been replaced by S43-Tec Stadtbahn. A new vehicle called STADTACE has also been introduced.
-=====Features=====
-  * This line basically plays a complementary role to existing or planned lines with long distances between stations, including lines other than SMTR, so there is a strong tendency to construct it in parallel with the line. ((There are some routes that do not have parallel routes, such as the HG system.))
-  * Except for existing stations, there is a strong tendency for station names to be written in Japanese.
-  * Unlike SMTR, the construction method is simplified and tends not to create stations with different designs from station to station.
-  * As mentioned above, it is compatible with the TLRT and actually once offered direct service to it.
-  * In principle, only CJK ((example:"相01")) is indicated as the number, which is different from other LRT lines. ((English notation can be confirmed on the system map.))((The system numbers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation are used as a reference.))

 A single-car train began operation in August 2025.
+=====Future Plans=====
+A second major model update is planned for the vehicles manufactured by S43-Tec; however, a specific timeframe has not been announced due to the manufacturer's scheduling constraints. Route development has been temporarily suspended pending the anticipated changes to the vehicle model itself.
+This major update is expected to result in the full lineup of new vehicle types (excluding the older LRV 2020).
+Due to operational limitations—such as the inability to form odd-numbered train sets—the LIGHTACE fleet is slated for a phased reduction in service, eventually leading to complete withdrawal from operation.
+(This excludes the LRV1928.)
+Plans are in place to introduce the STADTACE as a replacement; this model offers functionality equivalent to the aforementioned S43-Tec vehicles.
