Europe’s record-breaking hyperloop hits 88-mile milestone at blazing 303 mph
SMRTR summary
A European research team achieved a milestone in hyperloop technology, simulating an 88-mile journey on a scaled-down 7.3-mile track. The test reached speeds equivalent to 303.4 mph in a low-pressure environment. Conducted at EPFL's facility, the experiment used a new linear induction motor for propulsion and levitation. This breakthrough demonstrates the feasibility of fast, sustainable intercontinental travel using hyperloop technology. The team plans further tests to refine the system, with potential applications in various transportation industries.
