Forgot to buy a gift for your mum\u2019s birthday and she\u2019ll be home in 30 minutes? No panic!<\/p>\n

Forget the plane, forget the high-speed train and of course forget your car and get in the Hyperloop<\/a> that will whisk you from London to Manchester in<\/a> 12 minutes. This mind-boggling futuristic transport system is capable to speed at up to 760mph (1,223kph).<\/p>\n

The founders want to fix transportation around cities where people are commuting for long hours to get from one city to another. They want to make it possible to be in any city around in 10 minutes. This is one of the latest innovation after the self-driving cars, flying cars and electric fine vehicles to solve this problem and redesign cities around people, not cars, and make them green and clean like an organic entity.<\/p>\n

For Josh Giegel<\/a>, co-founder of Hyperloop One, an original idea from Elon Musk, we shouldn\u2019t live in a world where wars exist, where people are battling for resources.<\/p>\n

Hyperloop is created to \u2018make the world a village again\u2019, he says.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Speaking at the Websummit 2016 in Lisbon, Giegel says: \u2018We are all one human race; if we can be together, live together in a peaceful way, our economy becomes tight together.\u2019<\/p>\n

The first Hyperloop will connect Dubai to Abu Dhabi in 12 minutes instead of 2h30 today. Why Dubai rather than San Francisco? The UAE is run like a big start-up and they are always up for the next gigantic experimentation.\u00a0Dubai has already realised some crazy mega projects such as getting off the ground Burj Khalifa, the world\u2019s tallest building. Plus the tight regulations in the Californian state would have caused more than one sleepless night; just look at what happened this week to the Uber self-driving car<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hyperloop aims to solve the 400-mile problem and make commuting from one city to the next a faster and seamless experience, just like taking a lift.<\/p>\n

In the short video below, the Hyperloop creators explain their vision for the future of mobility, how they connect people to the autonomous space and get people door-to-door, faster than ever before.<\/p>\n
