The LRTA 1100 class is the second-generation class of high-floor light rail vehicles of the LRT Line 1.

The trains were purchased in 1996 as part of a capacity expansion project funded by official development assistance (ODA) loans from Japan. Entering service in 1999, many vehicles were taken out of service due to lack of spare parts. The trains subsequently underwent re-engineering and refurbishment by Voith from 2019 to 2020.
