JR East announced that they will replace the E217 Series EMU currently used for the Yokosuka-Sobu Rapid Line with E235 Series EMU. The base 11-car will have the same 6M5T configuration as the ones running on the Yamanote Line and it will keep the 2 Green Cars, which will have power outlets and wifi. The amount of cars/sets that will be built will be the same number as the E217 (51 11-car sets and 46 4-car sets for a total of 745 cars)

Or would its emergency batteries be enough to circumvent that?
