Seeing that there is no physical track under it (smart rail), you can identify the virtual track (staff) drawn to achieve track-like driving. Smart rail (advantages) such as large capacity, high riding comfort, safety and speed, punctuality, etc. Since we use technical means to get rid of the constraints of traditional physical rails on vehicles, it (smart rail) also has the advantages of high operational flexibility, strong urban adaptability, and short construction period.

【Commentary】The trial operation in Chengdu adopts a new generation of power dispersed "Mission" platform vehicles, which have faster running speed, larger interior space and smoother driving experience, which can provide better travel services for people traveling to and from the Universiade venues.

【During the same period】Chengdu citizen Chen

I am a sophomore in high school and still in school. Usually, when I am resting, I will pay attention to these things about public transportation in Chengdu. As soon as I got on the bus, I felt the powerful air conditioning of it (Smart Rail), and I felt very comfortable. There are also several guide screens in the car that are particularly clear, and the ride feeling is also very comfortable and very fast.
