Who are We?
Warwick Hyperloop is a student-led project that is based at the University of Warwick.
In 2019 we competed in Elon Musk’s SpaceX Hyperloop competition and achieved a semi-final position. We also showcased in European Hyperloop Week in the Netherlands (2022), Edinburgh (2023), Zurich (2024). Prior to 2022, our pods were only conceptual but in 2023 our first working pod was manufactured in time to showcase at the EHW. Warwick Hyperloop’s most recent accomplishment was competing in the EHW 2024 in ETH Zurich, . Our expertise spans across various engineering and non-engineering disciplines with over 50 members specialising in electrical, mechanical, systems, sponsorship, and more.
And we’re only just getting started. Our target for this year to create a life size pod for EHW 2025.
High Speed
Hyperloops are one of the fastest modes of transport in the future, with a maximum speed of up to 760 mph.
Environmental
With an electric motor, magnetic levitation, and a low-drag environment, this transport produces zero direct emissions.
Economical
With its speed, freight and supply chain transport times can be decreased, and so increasing economic activity.
Hyperloop Explained
For the past-half century, transport has reached stagnation. There have been no new systems of travel developed to work in our ever-growing congested world. The train, the car and the jet. Three modes of transport that changed humanity as a species drastically each time - the sheer effect of which nothing else has had the opportunity to surpass.
Until Now.
