Abstract :Hyperloop has proposed as a mode of passenger and freight transportation. The concept was about a vactrain that provides very-high-speed rail transportation which was invented two centuries ago.  This old high-speed transportation idea in evacuated tubes has become popular again. Ellon Musk has proposed Hyperloop as a system that reduces the travel time between Los Angeles to San Francisco cities insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(563 km/350 miles); down to 35 minutes with a very high speed in 2012. To improve the idea an open-source design of the Hyperloop pod has released by the Tesla and Space X teams and some competitions held. Many ideas have come out at those competition in 2015 to 2019. Elon Musk himself described hyperloop as `a cross between a Concorde, a railgun, and an air hockey table` within the time in those competitions. For the competitions a trial test track of a 1-mile tube adjacent have built in Los Angeles city by Space X and the experimental work for trying to ensure the capabilities of the fifth mode of transportation. With recent innovations, Hyperloop can be described as a sustainable, self-powered, high speed, safe and a promising transportation mode for future, but its deficiencies will have to lead some changes and improvements for Hyperloop in future.
