The CRRC 600 (Chinese: 时速600公里高速磁浮交通系统; lit. '600 km/h high-speed maglev transportation system') [1] [2] [3] is a high-speed magnetic levitation (maglev) train under development in China, using German Transrapid technology under license from Thysenkrupp.
The Shanghai maglev is the world's first commercial high-speed maglev and has a maximum cruising speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). [3] Prior to May 2021 the cruising speed was 431 km/h (268 mph), at the time this made it the fastest train service in commercial operation.
A prototype vehicle of the 600 km/h (370 mph) CRRC 600 was developed in 2019 and tested from June 2020. [66] In March 2021 a 300 km/h (190 mph) model began trials. [67] In July 2021, the CRRC 600 maglev, planned to travel at up to 600 km/h (370 mph), was unveiled in Qingdao. [68] It was reported to be the world's fastest ground vehicle. [69]
During these tests, a speed of 453 km/h (281 mph) was reached, and a relative speed of 891 km/h (554 mph) was reached, setting a new world record for the relative speed between two conventionally wheeled trains. [1] On June 29, test runs through the Haiwei tunnel were conducted. During these tests, a speed of 420 km/h (260 mph) was reached, and ...
