China Tests Self-driving Train Running On Virtual Tracks In Sub-zero Weather by Automotive1(m): 1:44pm On Feb 09, 2019

China is testing its smart Self-driving Electric Train running on virtual tracks to see if it can run smoothly in Sub-zero weather.

Temperatures plunged to around -20℃ (-4℉) in northeast China's Harbin testing site. The test checks if the smart train and the virtual tracks can run smoothly in freezing cold.



The 307 passenger trackless train was first launched in May last year . It uses rubber wheels on a plastic core, has a top speed of 70 km an hour and will travel 25 kilometres after ten minutes of charging.

Trial operation of the train will commence very soon in other Southern cities of China.

If it took us 58 years to launch that "thing" few days ago. How many years will it take us to launch this one?



I'm sure after 300 years i will look from heaven and be happy the new president of Nigeria just launched smart Self-driving Electric Train.
