Elon Musk’s latest idea was initially thought of as impossible, yet the Hyperloop is edging closer to reality and is being teased in a new video.
Hyperloop One is the firm behind the push to make the fifth mode of transportation and intends on launching in the United Arab Emirates, where locals would be able to enjoy the benefits of the ultra-fast and efficient system.
The company says that a trip between Dubai and Abu Dhabi will take just 12 minutes, down from the one hour needed by high-speed train and the two-hour journey by bus. Additionally, Hyperloop One is envisioning connections from Dubai to Riyadh (48 minutes), Dubai to Doha (23 minutes), and Dubai to Muscat (27 minutes).
Eventually, Hyperloop One hopes to expand around the world including in Australia in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane as well as North America and Europe.
