Futuristic Australian Train Could Transport Citizens at High Speed with Low Emissions

  • Australian Train Could Transport Citizens at High Speed with Low Emissions
    A new train designed by the HASSEL could one day be zipping people around Australia while reducing the country's carbon output. The A-HSV train is a double decker machine that promises to have just 4 kg of CO2 emissions per 100 passengers per kilometer -- compared to 14 kg for a car, or 17 for a plane carrying the same number of people the same distance. The train was apparently inspired by the 1960's version of the Holden Monaro coupe and it promises to transport its future passengers in style. Watch a video of it in motion after the jump!
