World's first 600 km/h high-speed maglev train rolls off assembly line
The new high-speed maglev train rolls off the production line in Qingdao, Shandong Province, on Tuesday
China's new high-speed maglev train, with a designed top speed of 600 km per hour, rolled off the production line on Tuesday. It is currently the world's fastest ground vehicle available.
The new maglev transportation system made its public debut in the coastal city of Qingdao, east China's Shandong Province.
It was self-developed by China and marks the country's latest scientific and technological achievement in the field of rail transit, according to the China Railway Rolling Stock Corporation (CRRC).
China's new breakthrough demonstrates that the country has mastered a complete set of high-speed maglev train engineering technologies, including system integration, vehicle production, traction power supply, rail trails, and transport control and communication, said the company.
Launched in October 2016, the high-speed maglev train project saw the development of a magnetic-levitation train prototype with a designed top speed of 600 km per hour in 2019, and conducted a successful test run in June 2020.
