First & Best Hyperloop team in the UK.
About us
Hyperloop is Elon Musk’s (CEO of Tesla and SpaceX) concept for the future of mass transport. It offers a new means of transporting people and goods quickly, safely, efficiently and with minimised environmental impact. Hyperloop uses electric propulsion to accelerate a passenger or cargo pod through a low-pressure tube. The autonomous pod levitates slightly using magnets to eliminate friction. It will be faster than an airline and will allow you to travel from London to Edinburgh in 40 minutes. Carbon emissions, noise, delays, weather concerns and pilot error are ultimately eliminated. HYPED is a University of Edinburgh student society dedicated to accelerating development of Hyperloop technology and implementing Hyperloop in the UK. We have over 50 members in the team working on various aspects of the project including technical design of the prototype, manufacturing, economic feasibility, stakeholder engagement and publicity. After a successful year, HYPED has advanced to the final stages of SpaceX’s Hyperloop Pod competition, held in California in Summer 2017. We are one of 24 finalists selected to compete, after showing our technical excellence and ambition both in the previous competition and in SpaceX and university presentations. The competition challenges students to design and build a pod to race along a mile-long Hyperloop tube. HYPED has also been named a winner in the Hyperloop One Global Challenge. Our proposed route linking Edinburgh to London has been selected as a possible location for the very first commercial Hyperloop. In summer 2017, we presented our case at a global conference in Amsterdam, discussing the feasibility of making Hyperloop in the UK a reality. How can I join or sponsor HYPED?

It's a wrap! We had such a great time in Zurich for European Hyperloop Week 2024 a couple weeks ago, showcasing what we have achieved despite the obstacles, as well as admiring what so many other teams have done. Thank you to the entire team for their hard work, especially our EHW team who have worked with the other organising teams for months, ensuring that everything runs smoothly. #stayhyped #europeanhyperloopweek #EHW2024
