Wes Edens has broken ground on Brightline West, his $12 billion Las Vegas-to-SoCal railway, aided by billions from the Biden Administration. But building more high-speed lines like this one won’t be easy.<br/><br/>Under a blazing morning Las Vegas sun, billionaire Wes Edens and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg threw a party this week to mark the start of construction of Brightline West, the first private high-speed railway in the U.S., driving yellow spikes into a section of track.<br/><br/>Now comes the hard part. The $12 billion project is three years behind his original schedule — delayed by the pandemic and final environmental approvals — but if construction goes as fast as the billionaire cofounder of Fortress Investment Group promises, it'll open in time to speed travelers across the desert at 200 miles per hour from Sin City to Southern California in time for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.<br/><br/>“The timeline is both realistic and achievable,” Edens told Forbes. “The impact of this is going to be long-lasting and prodigious. And I want it to be successful because I want the next one and the next one and the next one to happen.”<br/><br/>Read the full story on Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/alanohnsman/2024/04/23/in-las-vegas-a-billionaires-blueprint-for-building-bullet-trains/?sh=1884f4bb64ac<br/><br/>Subscribe to FORBES: https://www.youtube.com/user/Forbes?sub_confirmation=1<br/><br/>Fuel your success with Forbes.

It embodies the passion for design of a brand that questions the way cars will be created in the future. The exterior is pure provocation, which is further magnified exponentially in an interior designed to boost emotions.<br/><br/>Light is one of the most important aspects of the interior of the CUPRA DarkRebel showcar, as it conditions the design and gives personality to each of its parts. Three original exponential environments have been developed that represent a core CUPRA reality: Square, Cube and Infinite. Embracing CUPRA's distinct mindset and digital DNA, the CUPRA DarkRebel redefines the automotive experience, seamlessly blending the physical and digital worlds. By integrating a gamified experience, users are not just driving; they are engaging in an ongoing, immersive connection with the CUPRA Tribe. <br/><br/>Once again in the interior, the central spine features prominently as an iconic element. In the CUPRA DarkRebel showcar, it goes from being a design element to a functional part that incorporates mobility. <br/><br/>This showcar reinforces CUPRA’s strategy of focusing on authenticity, using parametric design and additive manufacturing. The central spine is made of an aluminium and titanium alloy, also using 3D technology with additive manufacturing, taking CUPRA’s design appeal to the next level.")
