China beats Elon Musk with Maglev, a vaccum train which can hit top speed of…., its features include…

China is once again going to change the future of transportation with its vacuum Maglev train. Chinese engineers worked on the concept of vacuum technology for several years. This idea was originally Elon Musk’s Tesla’s idea. China redefined it and is now closer to its vision in Northern China. This innovation can be a turning point in the high-speed travel industry.

China’s High-Speed Maglev

The new Maglev train has vacuum technology combined with magnetic levitation which can achieve a top speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour (621 mph). This mode of transportation is being developed and tested in Northern China. The Chinese which usually invests in public infrastructure, is working on this project.

Earlier China was a bicycles dominated country, which they transformed into a global leader in technology and infrastructure. The Maglev train is a next step in China’s journey to keep working on modern technology.

High-Speed Travel Future

The Maglev train operates in a near-vacuum environment and reduces air resistance at unimaginable speeds.This train is different from others due its velocity and because of its advanced communication systems. Engineers have upgraded China’s existing 5G technology to maintain stable communication even at ultra-high speeds.

The solution has an electromagnetic signal cable along the vacuum tube, eliminating frequency disruptions caused by the train’s rapid movement. Early tests have given very results almost matching engineers’ expectations. The Maglev train is expected to be implemented on China’s rails as early as 2032.

Challenge To Elon Musk’s Tesla?

Tesla, under Elon Musk’s leadership, was earlier working on the concept of a hyperloop,  high-speed train network that could transform urban transport. However, the company eventually dropped this idea to focus on other ventures, and China started working on it.

While Tesla is leading in electric vehicles, the Maglev train can give an opportunity to China to be a leader in high-speed transport innovation.
