The hyperloop, in the form proposed by Musk, differs from traditional vactrains by relying on residual air pressure inside the tube to provide lift from aerofoils and propulsion by fans; however, many subsequent variants using the name "hyperloop" have remained relatively close to the core principles of vactrains.

2024年2月20日 · In 2013, Elon Musk had a singular idea to revolutionize intercity transport — and it had nothing to do with Tesla. Instead of self-driving electric vehicles ferrying people to and from the...

馬斯克於2012年7月在 加利福尼亞州 聖塔莫尼卡 舉行的 PandoDaily 活動中，首次提到他正在構想“第五種交通方式”，其稱之為 Hyperloop。 此高速運輸方式具有以下特點：不受天氣影響、不會有碰撞事件產生、速度是飛機的兩倍、低功耗以及可供 24 小時運行的儲能系統。 [11] 選擇Hyperloop這個名字是因為它會循環運行。 馬斯克推測經過改善，之後將能夠以 高超音速 行駛 [12]。 2013年5月，馬斯克將他的 Hyperloop 比作“ 協和飛機 、 軌道炮 和 氣墊球 桌之間的交 …

2025年1月15日 · Hyperloop, proposed ultra high-speed, ground-level, solar-powered cargo and mass transportation system conceptualized in 2013 by American entrepreneur Elon Musk in a 58-page white paper. The system would consist of a network of steel tubes, with pods traveling through a “near-vacuum” environment at

2018年2月1日 · First proposed by Elon Musk, the theoretical transportation system we call hyperloop would propel people- or cargo-filled pods over long distances through steel tubes. Magnetic levitation and...

In Elon Musk's world, the Hyperloop will become a "fifth mode" of transportation, standing beside planes, trains, automobiles and boats in the pantheon of mechanized movement. Musk envisions people traveling through the Hyperloop in pods that whiz through steel tubes mounted on pylons, or pillars, designed to withstand California's earthquakes.
