The CR450AF Fuxing (Chinese: 复兴号; pinyin: Fùxīng Hào) is a prototype Chinese electric high-speed train manufactured by CRRC Qingdao Sifang.As part of the China Standardized EMU family, the CR450AF has an operating speed of 400 km/h (250 mph) and a maximum design speed of 450km/h.
The record was later protected with the addition of chicanes, which were built into the straight in 1990, which would prevent the ability of a car to easily reach 400 km/h (249 mph) again on the much shorter straights. In 2008, WR unveiled a new LMP2 fitted with a Zytek engine, known as the WR2008. Gérard Welter died on January 31, 2018, aged 75.
Speed limit sign in the Republic of Ireland, using "km/h.". The SI representations, classified as symbols, are "km/h", "km h −1" and "km·h −1".Several other abbreviations of "kilometres per hour" have been used since the term was introduced and many are still in use today; for example, dictionaries list "kph", [3] [4] [5] "kmph" and "km/hr" [6] as English abbreviations.
It is expected to enter service by 2025 with a top operating speed of 400 km/h (249 mph), surpassing the current fastest operating speeds of other high-speed trains in China, and additionally exceeding the current maximum operating speeds for high-speed trains in Japan and France that are limited to go up to 320 km/h (199 mph).
The Chiron can accelerate from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 2.4 seconds according to the manufacturer, 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 6.5 seconds and 0–300 km/h (0–186 mph) in 13.6 seconds. In a world-record-setting test at the time in 2017, the Chiron reached 400 km/h (249 mph) in 32.6 seconds, after which it needed 9.4 seconds to brake to ...
The family consists of: the Zefiro 250, which has a top operating speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) and is for the moment wholly manufactured in China; the Zefiro 300, which has a top operating speed of 300 km/h (190 mph) but design speed up to 400 km/h (250 mph); and the Zefiro 380, which has a top operating speed of 350 km/h (220 mph) and design ...
HEMU-430X (standing for High-Speed Electric Multiple Unit 430 km/h eXperimental) is a South Korean high-speed train intended for a maximum speed of 430 km/h (267 mph). On 31 March 2013, it achieved 421.4 km/h (261.8 mph) in a test run, making South Korea the world's fourth country after France , Japan and China to develop a high-speed train ...
As part of the China Standardized EMU, The CR400BF is designed to operate at a cruise speed of 350 km/h (217 mph) and a maximum speed of 420 km/h (261 mph) in commercial service. Development on the project started in 2012, and the design plan was finished in September 2014. The first EMU rolled off the production line on 30 June 2015. [1]
