China's future high-speed trains might be self-driving, have a top speed around 600 kilometers per hour and an adjustable interior and entertainment system with high-speed internet, a senior engineer said on Monday.

Most of these new features will be completed within the next decade, said Ding Rongjun, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. He also is one of the key scientists behind Fuxing - the first bullet train fully developed in China.

Fuxing, which debuted last year on the line connecting Beijing and Shanghai, has an operating speed of 350 km/h - the world's fastest. It now serves a dozen major cities, from Chengdu, Sichuan province, to Shenzhen, Guangdong province, according to the China Railway Corporation.
