The MF 2000 is a steel-wheel variant of the electrical multiple units used on Paris's Metro system. The cars first arrived in December 2007 and delivery will be completed by 2015. RATP ordered 160 trains or 800 cars in 2001, to replace the aging MF 67. It is used on Line 2, Line 5 and Line 9.

The trains were manufactured by a consortium of four train manufacturers, namely Alstom, Bombardier, Technicatome and CSEE at a cost of 800 million. It was the first time in history that the RATP has assigned four manufacturers to manufacture different components of the train cars. The split of the job delayed the process for a year due to the poor collaboration between the four companies, but RATP has seen a drop in costs.

The train's exterior was the result of a design competition, and the winning design is similar to the MP 89. The interior also looks similar to MP 89's interior, but added with new security features. It is the first rolling stock to have air-conditioning.
