This seems like a WP:NOTNEWS situation to me. It's a crowd-funding campaign for a travel tube ala Futurama. While there have been a lot of news reports about this (with flashy headlines suggesting it already exists), it's not clear that it's going to go anywhere (excuse the pun). Perhaps it could be merged into the Matthew Modine article since he is the president of the company. ... discospinster talk 19:33, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@captainraju, @discospinster -- I agree that the company is all flash. If you look at its competitor Hyperloop Transportation Technologies you will discover that it too is an "all hype, all the time" company. The only thing they manufacture is videos. I believe Hyper Chariot is noteworthy BECAUSE of its publicity. There's a possibility that something DOES happen. I make no predictions. Rhadow (talk) 20:04, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: Whether or not the technology is feasible, the fact is that the article meets the criteria for inclusion, namely a couple of relevant sources. Katharine908 (talk) 23:17, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
