Liseberg to Open Projekt Helix in 2014
Liseberg will open a Mack launched coaster code named “Projekt Helix” in 2014.
The launched coaster will utilize the park’s terrain and will feature multiple launches. The coaster’s green color scheme should blend well with the surrounding scenery.
A release from the park reads:
“The track is almost 1,4 km (4500 feet) long and the ride lasts for almost two minutes. Along the track are two launches where the coaster is accelerated using Linear Synchronous Motors (LSM). It will be the first multi-launch coaster in Europe. The ride will include six inversions, four airtime hills and plenty of drops, turns and twists.”
“With speeds up to 100 km/h (62 mph) this new coaster will be the fastest one in the park. It will also be the most technologically advanced coaster in the park. It’s manufactured by the German company Mack Rides Gmb.”
“The construction work will start as soon as the park closes this fall and continue over next year.”
Below are some statistics about Projekt Helix:
Investment: 200 million SEK (€ 23 million)
