webfi- HYPERLOOP ONE BREAKS SPEED RECORD
Hyperloop One just completed phase two of its full-scale Hyperloop system tests, achieving record speed and distance. The company’s super speed transit pod managed to go nearly the entire length of Hyperloop One’s test track in the Nevada desert, gliding using magnets. It got up to a top speed of 310 km per hour (nearly 192 mph), which is the highest recorded speed of any Hyperloop pod so far.

inb4,elon musk is a future changer of transportation
Go teams to become successful
I did not know that the conversion for 70 MPH equated to 310 KM. And when did this momentous event happen?
Certainly did not look like anything near 190 MPH…just sayin'…
lololol this is mad funny, when they first started talking about the hyperloop they were talking about it going 1200km per hour (800mph). 310km is nothing, this shit is going to fail
As much as I want this to work Thunderf00t makes some compelling points as to why it wont.
Awesome!!! So happy to see such progress! Congrats to the Hyperloop team and engineers!
Still only half as fast the world's fastest train. Hope Hyperloop bit train record soon then it becomes interesting. I really like progress hope they will give updates every week and start build real line in Europe.
…….Isn't this just a maglev train then?
More Hype
well, I'm impressed./ I want to see this come to fruition.. its sad we have zero high speed rail systems in the US
192mph with 3500hp? I hope it wasn't maxed out
Its Great Joke for people))) 500 metres and 310 km/hour)))) OMG. About Mars better tale.
Brilliant!!!
Back in my day trains had to be powered by coal and everybody rode in big things with seats called coaches, they blew steam and smoke and had a heart of fire!
I don't like this if something happens your in a lock environment no way to run or get out
310 Kmph
Are you serious
Trains travel faster than this
Jiaotong University has finished testing a small magnetic train in a enclosed hyperloop sytem at 1,000 km/hr/CRRC the largest high speed train company finished building two new magnetic levitation line,one in Changsha ,the S1 red line in Beijing and is building 10 more in other cities.CRRC is planning to build a larger Maglev trains between cities in a hyperloop system at a designed speed of 2,500 km/hr.
Cool story the speed record is 374 mph (603 kph)

And the Shanghai Maglev does 431 kph daily with hundreds of people in it transporting thousands of people per day.

So unless those records are beaten and are commercially transporting thousands of people daily no need to ride the Elon Musk Hype-Train (aka the stolen concept called Hyperloop aka Vactrain from 1906) for accomplishments that where done long before.
If its in a vacuum like situation how will the company ensure about the providing breathable air to passengers for longer routes???
It seems that adopting Maglev train technologies is a better option for now as Hyperloop's development and feasibility will take about 10 to 20 years more and Maglev technologies is a party of Hyperloop systems.
TGV of 2007 is faster
the TGV achieved 574km/h or 359mp/h,
the maglev train in japan goes even 603km/h or 377mp/h
the question is which system is more efficient? vacuum and magnetic power (which also takes a lot of electric energy) or more conventional high speed trains which don't need a vacuum and are also extremely fast
This has to be the biggest scam I have ever seen. Why is it called Hyperloop? Its certainly Hyped and Loopy perhaps that is Elons Joke?
Hyperloop is coming to India 1st😎
実物大のテストよりも、まずは
1/5 1/7ぐらいの小さなシステムで昆虫とか乗せての試験を成功させてから開発本格化させればいいのに(笑)
