China's Transit Elevated Bus (TEB) went through a road test in north China's Hebei Province on Tuesday.

The test in Qinhuangdao City, evaluated the braking system, drag and power consumption, according to tebtech, a company that helped build the TEB.

The TEB is designed to help ease traffic congestion. The passenger compartment rises far above other vehicles on the road, allowing cars to pass underneath.

The compartment is 22 meters long, 7.8 meters wide and can carry 300 passengers.

The TEB has already attracted interest from governments in Brazil, France, India and Indonesia.
