Follow on Google News | Global Hyperloop Advances: Revolutionizing High-Speed TravelThe Hyperloop, a futuristic high-speed transportation concept introduced by Elon Musk, is making progress globally.
By: econtrendx.com Progress Continues: Hardt Hyperloop's Breakthrough Just last week, Hardt Hyperloop, a company based in the Netherlands, announced a significant milestone in their development efforts. The company successfully used magnetic levitation to elevate a Hyperloop pod, allowing it to glide almost 300 feet (approximately 91 meters) at a speed of 18 miles per hour (around 29 kilometers per hour). The European Hyperloop Center: A Hub for Innovation The European Hyperloop Center, located in the Netherlands, is a significant part of the global effort to turn the Hyperloop dream into reality. The EHC is home to a 1,377-foot-long (420 meters) test track, which completed its pipe installation in November 2023. Swisspod: Building the World's Longest Hyperloop Track Elsewhere in Europe, Swisspod is pushing the envelope with plans to build the "world's longest Hyperloop track." With a diameter of 131 feet (40 meters), the company is taking a unique approach by designing a circular test track rather than the traditional straight-line configuration. China's Hyperloop Ambitions While Europe makes significant strides in Hyperloop development, China is not far behind. In 2023, China announced its plans to build a Hyperloop-like train service between Shanghai and Hangzhou by 2035. India's Entry into the Hyperloop Race India, too, has shown interest in developing Hyperloop technology. The Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT-M), a prestigious university, set up a team called Avishkar Hyperloop in 2017 to participate in global Hyperloop competitions. What's Stopping Hyperloop in the U.S.? While Europe, China, and India race to develop Hyperloop technology, the United States seems to be lagging behind. Richard Branson's Virgin Hyperloop, now rebranded as Hyperloop One, struggled to find a feasible path forward after the billionaire left the project. The Evolving Global Hyperloop Landscape Despite the slower progress in the U.S., the global race to make Hyperloop a reality continues to gain momentum. The dream of revolutionizing long-distance travel through Hyperloop technology lives on, propelled by global collaboration and innovation.
