I think it will take a long time before there is the abundance of energy and in efficient enough form, to utilize a technique like the one shown. It seems it would always be more practical to loose very small amount of energy on tires and that method, than enough energy to make such mass levitate. That would hold until energy is excessively abundant at least. But who knows, high enough speeds may break that rule as well as lower maintenance on all the moving parts.
I always thought that the next move in transportation should be in train-like units... efficient Semis that you hook up to on your highway drive with 8 other cars until you veer in other directions.
