In a TransPod “hyperloop” system, pressurized passenger and cargo vehicles travel in a low-pressure tube environment, driven by linear induction motors and air compressors, at speeds up to 1,200 km/h. Powered by electric energy in a system that is unaffected by weather conditions, the tube transportation system enables passenger and cargo travel that is cleaner and faster than airline travel, creating an attractive choice for consumers, a high-potential investment opportunity for infrastructure investors, and a reliable mass transportation system."
