We’ve seen a few concepts that used maglev to run cars on the roads, but the IPV or Induction Powered Vehicle from designer Philipp Siebourg uses the idea in a way that’s closer to maglev trains. The cars have an integrated magnet and run on a rail system that generates a magnetic field. Interaction between the rail system and the integrated magnet decides the direction of the vehicle.
The automated car does not require a driver, and since it is free of the weight of batteries and powertrain, it is much lighter and efficient. Of course, our ranting on the immense infrastructure required and the associated costs for such systems stays in place.

This is really a supersede idea by the Philipp Siebourg. The cars which can run on the track of the railway and without a driver this is really a supersede, and sterling innovation by the Philipp Siebourg. This is really very useful for the human being and idea is really tremendous and unique.
