Passenger capsule moving at a speed of 1200 km / h, presented in Spain

Specialists of Hyperloop Transport Technologies presented a capsule capable of moving passengers at a speed of 1200 km / h.

A few years ago, when Ilon Mask first spoke about such transport of the future, his idea seemed fantastic. And now the first real sample was presented at the exhibition in Spain.

The length of the new vehicle is 30 meters, the cross section is 2.7 meters. Capsule weighing 20 tons can accommodate 40 people. It also has a toilet, which means that passengers will be able to use it at great speed. There are several concepts of interior design, and they are all far from the traditionally located passenger seats. The capsule of the future should have an appropriate design, both outside and inside, the creators think so. The final version of the decoration has not been disclosed, but it seems that it will resemble the setting used in scenarios of science fiction films.

It is planned that the capsules will exit the destination every 40 seconds and will be able to carry up to 150,000 passengers per day. For testing tests of the new invention in France, they plan to build a kilometer highway, a prototype with a length of 5 miles will also be built in California.
