Ah, quantum levitation. It's too bad levitation is so expensive. I wouldn't expect to see it anywhere but a laboratory until it becomes more efficient 8-|

I bet 5000 planets it's only viral marketing for the upcoming wipeout game :) :)

It's a different form of levitation.
In this clip you see that they insert something in the 'cars'. It's probably nitrogen. They do this so that the car gets really cold (hence the 'steam' coming out of the car, it's vapor).

Only then this form of levitation works. It's levitation, but pretty different from the (electromagnetic) levitation that is used for Maglev trains.

If you want this to be used on trains, you'll have to get a lot of nitrogen and some warm clothing ;)

From what I've heard this video is believed to be faked and only hidden viral marketing for sony's upcoming Wipeout game :p

it could be, but 'quantum levitation' is actually real. as you can see here.
