Skift Take

No one can accuse Elon Musk of thinking small, post Tesla and SpaceX. And we're eager to know what this fifth mode of transportation could be.

Elon Musk has plans — or maybe it’s just an idea — for a brand new form of transportation.

He calls it the “Hyperloop,” and its a way to travel long distances quickly.

At the D11 conference Musk danced around the topic a bit. He didn’t want to talk about the Hyperloop because he wanted the focus of his interview to be Tesla.

The most he would say is that the Hyperloop is a “cross between a Concorde, a railgun and an air hockey table.”
