The EU is investing in brilliant solutions to revolutionise sustainable commuting.
One of them is Monocab 🚆
A gyro-stabilised monorail cabin offers autonomous, on-demand transport.
It's designed to complement public transit by enhancing mobility in less populated areas and making your journey both planet-friendly and convenient. 🚆
Have you heard of any other innovative transport solutions?

@EUCommission this is actually quite cool, I like that it looks super nice to ride in: comfy seating and big windows. We can make mass transit a better experience than driving cars. I already reguarly experience this taking the RailJet and CityJet through Austria.
@eighthave @EUCommission yea but do we really need to do some crazy monorail stuff for that? Why cant we just take a regular train and make it comfy?
Also this thing is not made for mass transit. It is a single pod, which can only fit a handful of people. And it is also extremely unreliable, since its balance can easily be thrown of by the tiniest obstacle on the rails.
@pinkie161 @EUCommission That kind of thing does not replace trains. It could make it economically feasible to run transit in places where trains would just be too expensive, e.g. rural areas.
