Delft Hyperloop

"Our vision is to accelerate the implementation of a full-scale hyperloop system, offering a sustainable and time-efficient mode of transportation to connect major cities​"

Inspired by Elon Musk's vision, a group of students from the Delft University of Technology joined together and founded Delft Hyperloop in 2016. Delft Hyperloop is developing a climate-neutral, scalable hyperloop system, becoming the fifth mode of transportation by reaching speeds over 1000 km/h.

Delft Hyperloop is known as a so-called D:Dream team from the Delft University of Technology. This means that Delft Hyperloop is a non-profit organization that exists to stimulate innovations. A D:Dream team consists of new people every year. All the progress which is made by the previous teams is transferred to the next. This structure is created to stimulate the development of as many students as possible. Every team member dedicates one year of their time and efforts to contribute to the innovation of the hyperloop and to focus on personal development.  

From September 2024, we as Delft Hyperloop IX are working towards an exciting challenge: winning the European Hyperloop Week (EHW) that will take place in Groningen Veendam, in July. We will build upon eight years of successful innovations and multiple great performances in the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition & the European Hyperloop week.

This year our mission is to develop an innovative hyperloop system to accelerate its full-scale implementation. The vision that supports this is that we want to accelerate the implementation of a full-scale hyperloop system, offering a sustainable and time-efficient mode of transportation to connect major cities​.

DELFT HYPERLOOP LEGACY

Delft Hyperloop has a large legacy with already 7 teams before us. They have laid the foundation to innovate on each year. To understand the story of our team and reflect on our challenges, it is important to understand where we come from. 7 teams before us have innovated the hyperloop concept radically. It wouldn’t be without their hard work and innovation that we are able to present what we have planned for this year. Take a look at what the previous teams have accomplished and what their take was on Delft Hyperloop.

A JOURNEY WITH DELFT HYPERLOOP

Join us at Delft Hyperloop as we envision the future  of transportation. Imagine stepping into a Hyperloop Pod at Amsterdam Zuid station and arriving in Paris in just 30 minutes. This video demonstrates how we would envision a journey while traveling with a Hyperloop system.
