Transportation is slated to change dramatically over the coming years, which is evident with the 'Spacetrain' that looks to offer an alternative when it comes to ground travel. The air-cushioned 'Spacetrain' is positioned as a competitor to the Hyperloop and is capable of transporting passengers at up to 745mph in order to make traditional travel methods on land far more efficient.
The need for efficient yet speedy ground travel solutions is only increasing, which is pushing designers to create methods of transporting people while thinking of future needs rather than just the needs of today. The Spacetrain is an example of this with a design that is crafted from carbon fiber and CNT, and is set to start testing in 2019.
