India’s First Hyperloop Test Track, IIT Madras
Discover India’s first hyperloop test track built at IIT Madras, a 410m tube shaping the future of ultra-fast travel.
Did You Know India Already Has a Hyperloop Test Track?
Most people think hyperloop is a far-off dream for futuristic countries. But what if we told you India already has its own hyperloop test track? Yes, at IIT Madras, a full-scale test track is quietly making history. This SpotGenie Fact uncovers how India is preparing for ultra-fast travel.
A Leap Toward Future Travel
On its Discovery Campus at Thaiyur, Chennai, IIT Madras, in collaboration with Indian Railways and hyperloop startup TuTr, has built India’s first hyperloop test track. This tube is about 410–422 meters long and designed to test pods, propulsion and levitation systems.
Why It’s a Big Deal
This test track is the first of its kind in the country and a crucial step toward bringing hyperloop passenger services to India. Officials have already spoken about potential corridors like Delhi–Jaipur or Mumbai–Pune that could slash travel times to a fraction of current journeys.
An Engineering & Transport Milestone
The track was completed in late 2024 and unveiled in early 2025. For a country with one of the world’s busiest transport networks, this project signals a bold push into next-generation mobility.
