Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) has begun construction of the world’s first full scale Passenger Hyperloop™ Capsule. This first capsule is the culmination of over three years and thousands of hours of design, research, and analysis.
Construction is underway for delivery and an official reveal in early 2018 at HTT’s R&D center in Toulouse, France for integration and optimization. The capsule will then be utilized in a commercial system soon to be announced from the ongoing negotiations and feasibility studies currently taking place around the world.

It’s the new way to get around and it’s all the rage these days. You guessed it, we re talking about the hyperloop technology, which consists of a sealed tube that connects cities and could significantly reduce travel times, compared to trains and even airplanes. And now, Italy is thinking about getting in the loop. 1 photo
The hyperloop technology is the next-generation ground mode of transport and the concept (of course) belongs to Elon Musk. The hyperloop would have you travel in capsules placed inside that low-pressure tube, reaching ultra-high speeds of up to more than 1,200 kph (745 mph).
