China has been at the forefront of cutting edge research into ultra high-speed transport and has in the last decade spearheading the successful construction of China's [[high-speed rail]] network into the world's most expansive rapid transport system.
In July 2024, China Railway Engineering Consulting Group ([[China Railway Group Limited|CREC]]) constructed a record-breaking 2 km long Maglev hyperloop test line in Yanggao County, [[Shanxi province]]. Using innovative techniques such as composite N-shaped beams incorporating steel shells and vacuum-sealed concrete, AI-driven magnetic damper and precision engineering afforded China the premiere opportunity to take the lead in the race to be the first country to commercialize a working hyperloop type of rapid transportation system. The spate of tests were conducted successfully with near-zero deviation from baseline indicating all design parameters have met expectation and CREC will proceed to expand the test line and scale up its production in order to finalized testing and develop various operation protocols to meet the challenges of large-scale deployment. Furthermore, unlike most current methodology used in various research test projects around the world, the highly advanced technology employed in the Chinese vacuum-tube test line and the capsule unit ensure scalability, maximum safety and ultimate comfort of the riders.<ref name="The-Star-March-2025">{{cite web |url=https://www.thestar.com.my/tech/tech-news/2025/03/20/how-china-is-solving-the-nightmare-that-killed-elon-musks-hyperloop |title=How China is solving the nightmare that killed Elon Musk’s Hyperloop |work=TheStar |first=Stephen |last=Chen |date=20 March 2025 |access-date=20 March 2025 |archive-date=20 March 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250320000000/https://www.thestar.com.my/tech/tech-news/2025/03/20/how-china-is-solving-the-nightmare-that-killed-elon-musks-hyperloop |url-status=live}} [https://www.msn.com/en-xl/news/other/how-china-is-solving-the-nightmare-that-killed-elon-musk-s-hyperloop/ar-AA1BhqT0#:~:text=China's%20solution%3A%20composite%20N%2Dshaped,shells%20and%20vacuum%2Dsealed%20concrete.&text=Inside%2C%20the%20team%20created%20a,by%20more%20than%20a%20third.
Currently, plans are in place to initiate a route between [[Shanghai]] and [[Beijing]] cutting travel time from 4 hours when utilizing high-speed bullet trains to under 90 minutes with the vacuum-tube transport traveling at {{cvt|1000|km/h|mph|round=50}}.<ref name="The-Star-March-2025"/>
