wording

perhaps there is a mistake but 100km/h? that doesn't sound like MagNev but like a steam engine.

Some maglev isn't high-speed (by rail standards). At high speeds, friction with the rails would be prohibitive, but at lower speeds it's still wasteful.

...Maglevs don't touch the rails.

Well, I checked the sources and they do say 100km/h. I rather suspect the low speed is connected to the 'low-cost' part. You get what you pay for.
