Watch as other countries follow…<\/p>\n

The Roads and Transport Authority has revealed their latest project, Sky Pods, they look just as cool as they sound and a lot less infrastructure is needed over current conventional transport methods.<\/p>\n

Dubbed the ‘future of mobility’ by the RTA, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Crown Prince of Dubai inspected the totally futuristic Sky Pods this week.<\/p>\n

Servicing a similar number of people, the electric pods require less infrastructure and use five times less power than regular electric vehicles.<\/p>\n

Like a train – the vehicle moves on rails<\/h3>\n

HH checked out the Sky Pods two models, the unibike and the unicar, which both move on rails.<\/p>\n

Each unibike can hold five riders and travel at a speed of 150 km\/h, while unicars can hold six travellers and also reach speeds of 150 km\/h.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
