Description
Avishkar Hyperloop is engineering a visionary pod for European Hyperloop Week 2026 in the Netherlands to showcase India’s role in revolutionizing the future of high-speed transport on the global stage.
We are Team Avishkar Hyperloop from IIT Madras, building India’s revolutionary high speed transport. You can watch our short crowdfunding video here to see our pod and work in action.
Our 2026 Goal
We are building a new vacuum compatible hyperloop pod to compete at European Hyperloop Week 2026, and your support helps us manufacture, test and ship this pod.
Why Your Support Matters
Your contribution helps us:
- Build and test levitation, propulsion, braking and control systems for near vacuum operation.
- Run vacuum tube tests at IIT Madras to prove performance and safety.
- Ship our pod and essential equipment and support core team travel for the competition.
Our Achievements
- Only Asian finalists at the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition 2019 and builders of India’s first vacuum compatible hyperloop pod.
- Continuously representing India at European Hyperloop Week since 2021 with steadily improving pods and systems.
Recent achievements include:
- Ranked 4th overall at European Hyperloop Week 2025, as the only Asian team in the top 5.
- 1st place in Socio Economic Research and 2nd place in Technical Research at EHW 2025.
- 1st place for pod demonstration at GHC 2026 and the InnoQuest Award for Best Embedded Subsystem and Best Traction Subsystem.
Why This Matters
Your support powers IIT Madras students who are building cleaner, faster and more efficient transport that can cut emissions and decongest cities in the long run. Every contribution takes us one real step closer to a cleaner, sustainable way to move people and goods in India.
