Båseline SG IT LOOKS rather like a futuristic stretch limousine, but its actual function is rather more populist: the Superbus is a novel public-transport system being developed in the Netherlands by the Delft University of Technology. It is an electric bus designed to be able to switch seamlessly between ordinary roads and dedicated supertracks, on which it can reach speeds of 250kph (155mph). It could thus present an alternative to much more expensive magnetic-levitation trains. The Superbus would be driven in the usual way on roads and an autopilot would be engaged when it reached a supertrack.
baby_tiger SG er... but most probably won't have it in s'pore right? even if they really use it elsewhere... s'pore too smal... looks quite cute tho...
jetabt767400 SG What I am afraid of, is the long chassis and the support in between. Plus, I also thought of a super fast bus before, running 260km/h on highways, any possibility? Very long and straight lah...
nomood SG not likely to work. it is too thin and long to be structurally rigid. you'll need at least a 4th set of wheel in the centre.
