Minimal footprint
Unlike large, cumbersome, high speed systems like Transrapid, SkyTran blends into the urban form.

More affordable
SkyTran's lightweight, simple modular design translates into lower manufacturing, installation & operational costs.

Better access
Non-stop SkyTran has the capability of off-line stops at every city block. High speed line haul systems must minimize stations to maintain average speed.

Faster average speed
SkyTran's non-stop speed of 150 mph beats Transrapid's typical average speed of 115 mph.
