A new hyperloop transport system may be installed in Dubai making your travel time to Abu Dhabi just 15 minutes long. This is according to Peter Diamandis, co-founder of Hyperloop Industries, who describes the "fifth mode of transportation" as a large steel vacuum tube that travels at speeds faster than 1,000 kph. Diamandis is currently in the UAE meeting with government officials to discuss the possibility of installing the system here. He tells ARN why the UAE is an ideal spot for the hyperloop.

The system could be up and running by 2020.
