Travel at speeds of 600 km/h
By Ned Kelly
Unveiled at the Modern Railways 2025 exhibition in Beijing, the cutting-edge technology would become a faster alternative to high-speed rail and a competitive rival to air travel, offering a more efficient, eco-friendly, and comfortable transportation option.
The train features a lightweight, aerodynamic design, constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy and carbon fiber composites to minimize drag.
Its advanced suspension system supports both traditional wheel-based movement at low speeds and magnetic levitation for high-speed operation.
Designed for fully automated operation (GoA4 standard), the system incorporates 5G communication, AI-powered monitoring, redundant safety mechanisms, and electromagnetic shielding to ensure optimal performance, safety, and passenger comfort.
This development marks a significant step forward in China's pursuit of next-generation rail technology, combining speed, innovation, and environmental benefits, and setting a new global standard for sustainable high-speed transit.
