people have to say, nurses too much that's why we listen to every weekend on d. w. right now it's skill testers. world. everyone else has pay rent the . well this car, mobs of spring bag, it's rotary engine, but with a little twist to it. what does that mean? we'll find out right now. welcome to r a v graph. because the full name,

the master amex, the t e sky active, our reason why we 1st need to talk about of cause is what a is a rotary engine. how does that work? on like most combustion engines, we've pistons move up and down to combat pressure into rotational motion mode to re engine feature a radio layout that requires a few and moving parts even though the amex 30 r a b has a rotary engine under the hood, eighty's power it's purely electric, so it's a plugin hybrid. the car will always drive with the out of the $125.00 kilowatt electric engine. and the roller re engine would only have one job, and that is to provide energy to either fills a battery or to directly give it to the electric engine. the electric, my to drives the front wheel was right next to it is the generator,

which provides the electric power with a little help from the adjacent to re, to re engine. let's talk a little more about the tag facts. we have a 17.8 kilowatt, all battery, which is basically office big as in the purely electric version. the top speed is the same 140 kilometers and now i will make the dash from 0 to 100 kilometers in an hour in and just over 9 seconds. so it's by no means us for the car and not a fast one either. but you have to say, this type of car plug in hybrids. they are made for fuel efficient driving with out the fear of being stranded somewhere because the battery is empty. the amex, this, he comes in 3 different power train configurations. it debuted as an e, v in 2020 last as a mild hybrid model for japan and australia now says the re v. but why did mazda

twos a road to me instead of a piston engine? it's in the same engine compartment with a v model and the mild hybrid model. so this is about 18 percent space saving compared to the the risk locating engine since space and the car is limited. the compact originally engine fits easily onto the hood without the need to sacrifice passenger room. the amex, the b r a, b has 3 different dr. modes that are normal charge and e b. s. you might have. busy this is purely electric and it will use the energy from the battery until that one is depleted. so we're at 0 percent then the rotary engine kicks in and start charging charge. we would have cast, you can charge of the battery up to a percentage of fuel like in something between 20 or

a 100 percent and 10 percent steps and sonoma because it will keep the battery as around 40 percent. so if you're over it, it will drive kill the electric and once it drops to 40, it was start the rotary engine to charge. the base model comes with full l e d lights and parking sensors at the front and rear 18 inch on the way wheels. a heads up display under review camera. a thing that takes some getting used to with the amex, the b r e v. and that, by the way, it's also true for the makes the, the purely electric version are the so called suicide doors had the re a, the open into the wrong direction. but this technology has a minor disadvantage. and that is that you can open the read all without opening the front door 1st. so if you wanna let someone stop in or out, you 1st have to open your door. not very practical. on the other hand, to get into the car is easier because you don't have to be pillar that takes away

space. but the space in the bag is pretty small. android also apple carplay, automatic climate control and the high beam is a real estate stand in the amex, the t r e b the interior of the amex 30 r e v is absolutely nice to look at what i especially like is the fact that you don't have a huge touch screen in the middle. instead, you have that small display that still has a decent size that you operate with this turning up and some buttons around it. the storage trace based coke inlay that prevents rustling noises. the climate control can be operated via a mix of touch into faces and physical,

but the general impression being tier it is quite dark. so some people might not like that. feel like they are trapped inside. and if you really don't like this type of k feeling, then you can still open the roof and he will be good. a partially digital cop pits provides all the vital info and then easy to understand the way truck capacity is 1107 leases. usually if you have plug in high recalls and you step on the gas quite hard, you will have the engine that gets very, very loud because those engines are small. that means they will not be able to provide the power in the us. they need to turn really, really fast, which makes them loud. the rotary engine, on the other hand, is quite silent. machine simply due to the way it is built. the monthly claims are purely electric.

arrange for the r u. v. version of 85 kilometers a few drive in the city and then it's will be way more than 100 kilometers. and that is more than enough to achieve the average distance to the easily to the purely electric range. of course you can drive with the rotary engine providing more energy for the battery and for the motor. and then you will have a total range of up to $682.00. i'm at a festival. the range can be extended, no 70, by charging the battery, but also by refueling the call at any gas station. we amex the d r a v is d as in car in the simple fact that's mots, managed to make a plug in hybrids by simply a getting this rotary engine to

a battery. electric vehicle is quite impressive when it talking about range and consumption. it is nothing special, it is similar to all the plugin hybrids on the market. but the silence on the interior since the engine is sol, silence is really nice, especially if you consider that the car has a starting price of just on the 36000 euros in germany. that makes the amex the t r e v. a real auction basting sign and driving a high quality interior engine extendable range. on the downside space in the back row is small the message, the phone, think lecture because you think password and it's list, ma'am you on most who made electric cars cool. tough. those were the over $700000000000.00 and it's one of the largest

e car manufacturers in the world. but problems and it's big factories around the globe are raising eyebrows. water and labor are both big issues. we looked at germany, the us and mexico and ask, is the push to drive greener vehicles fueling various crisis to use? we want to know what's the true cost of tesla. tesla is known as a disruptor in the auto industry. it's giga. factories are massive compounds like here in grenada suite, the village, about an hour of sites for when the facilities are designed to allow for faster and more streamlined production as tesla ams to produce there's like the vehicles. but all this heavy manufacturing on one site means concentrated water consumption. the tesla gig of factories started in the us where the company was founded in china and auto manufacturing giant, germany. most recently, texas glen was a big step that was basically how so saying, we're not scaring down. i was is a managing director at what bush security as an investment bank faced in the west.

i reached out to him because he's a big time task for watcher. we're going for you receive these beam that'd be here and others. and that's part of the most month, which is hard to argue with. if you look a, which been accomplished last jacket, while the joke in berlin at the time was that most noted tech notes and just wondering an excuse to visit some of the city's most famous clubs. the location was excellent from us for many reasons. the factory was built at breakneck speed, especially for germany, where your rock or sea approvals and permit inc, and move at a glacial pace. it opened its stores in 2022. germany has a long history of auto manufacturing. so one resource that has an abundance as well trained workers on top of locations, smack dab in the middle of the u at the end, the day, the center of the auto industry nachos in europe, you know, many could say globally. so, bro, in made a ton of sense, as well as to, with just sticks of making cars in china and ship it in to europe,

which would just go disaster. that's why per, when has been so important terms that spider web logistically getting it throughout europe as well as from a cost perspective can be significantly less now. but one resource that is not as abundant as one might think is water, which is apparently laughable to you on musk back in 2021. when he was confronted with the idea that his factory might contribute to water problems, very press if that's your internet. so watch sports look around you, but the local, the consumer watches the for the development, none of this is completely wrong. it's like water everywhere here. of this thing like a desert to, you know, to, to somebody states. i have a just a have some, some understanding for him because it's so sold off of a bid is price. this is martin puts his work. looks at waterway ego systems and

management the bowman. how are you a 1000000000 bit, brent? but yeah, we have uh 3000 dates. so if you arrive by a plan, you would see like several. well uh so we are rich in lakes, but we are poor as well for resources. yeah. so this seems to be covered pictorial . so despite being known for lakes and rivers, canals and streams, ground water levels, and this part of germany has been declining for years due to climate change. so even as the needs of the area are increasing water levels are sinking. and now on the edges of the most populated city in germany, there's a mass of giga factory and that concentrated production, it also means concentrated water consumption. not to mention this area and growing honda is actually in a water protection zone and there's another problem, the kind of soil that exists in this part of the country which is really sandy and almost like a sieve. while it allows rain water to quickly reach aqua furs, the sandy soil also makes it easy for pollutants to drain down and contaminate

drinking water. in case such point attends would to the ends of the excess a. it could be that's a spoiled and make an use of both of drinking water purposes. sense the completion of the factory. there's been intense scrutiny. german magazine stan reported about a battery accident starting a fire and contaminated water seeping into the ground. or in 2023, the magazine also reported about an illegal filling station that leads to $150.00 leaders of diesel quote, uncontrollably. these are just a few of the reported instances. authorities also seem slow to criticize the company, and only for these cases involving many different chemicals, have state environmental authorities ordered soil samples to be taken. but is this simply a culture clash between an american company and german bureaucracy? so the classical american approach, so oh, i'm a, i'm out of the set line by the west coast. i'm using uh, an area and then if i, i've been using it then i move over to them as well. so. so this is all,

there is no possible sense or your so be our limited space. yeah. you have to deal with a more carefully what. so the space and the resources. and that's why we have these sort of typically, um, yeah, freights medical regulations. it would only be fair to mention that the 1st company to build a factory and a water protection area in germany was mercedes benz, about a half an hour away from the tesla site. but it's not just the u. s. first, germany issue around the world's customer has a rocky history with environmental regulations. the l. a times reported about fines for a california facility amounting to $275000.00 from the federal environmental protection agency. it's not only environmental issues that the various tests of factories have in common, but also building in areas with water problems kind of phone, which is worldwide known for the problems takes us the same um and also in

china and young, you know, some higher even there is, let's say, you know what, the volume of the quantity is so bad that, uh, do you all know that the difference of visual drinking lots of the out the, let's look on the other side of the us border test was currently planning to build another dig a factory here and the state is more heavily on mexico. that plant could open in the coming years. but one big problem in february 2020 to the state where that facility will be located, declared a state of emergency due to the drought. there were 2 of the 3 dams that supply the metropolis of monterey recording, historically low levels. but as of now, justices is still moving forward with the facility in web only on the next it goes in for him because of the low cost. sure, a chip reduce what i believe will be a sub $30000.00 vehicle. next goods, really the only choice and that's why we just degree where it is relative to us. that makes a ton of sense. this area outside of monterey,

like the area outside of berlin, has an existing automotive sector with companies that supply american manufacturers like this one. the company key is already operating in the state for example. so tesla could also be looking to court talent and take advantage of the infrastructure already in place. 80 percent of the exports of adult industry goes to the united states. and he is around $15000000000.00 us dollars per year of a production and exports of out of pots and some promotional beatrice. manuel montoya heads the automotive cluster as well. the on and in comparison with, with mexico, a noble young is one of the main estates that for the uses a carson of the box. montoya says water concerns are quote, challenging for existing companies. the points to new plans on the horizon and already in the works. the governor of the level we own and build

a $1250000000.00 investment plan design to ensure the states water supply through 2050 to invest and water infrastructure like new pipelines and a new damn. there's more water coming to the city and the state governments on the, on the, however, the plan for the next 20 years to, to supply that, what are the, not only that companies propose for the population? what do you need for the next 20? but nearly 5000000 people live in metro area, monterey, there has already been water supply rationing and recent years. with media reporting that some water truck delivery drivers have even been threatened with kidnapping in a time or climate change is adding even more stress here in germany. tesla's environmental record is raising concerns about an activist. environmental is always been a push pull for tests so that they need to navigate. clearly the green need churn

terms. going to actually be cool. july writers spotlight, but it's a work in progress. so how do these brace, engine planned build up, split into the global tests strategy? the plan facility and mexico and the giga factory build up in germany will help tesla compete on costs. even us traditional carmakers turn to ease of use. and while chinese companies like b y, d start to ramp up outside of china. but let's look a global sales test when they have brand recognition, especially in the west. the china is gaming with b y, d, making massive strides in 2022. their sales more than tripled compared to 2021. it with german carmakers dw, lagging behind. and 3rd place you id. they continue to compete with from maybe a global share perspective. but when you think what your vehicle is, you think tasa and that's been a big part of their success. right now it's still test is world everyone else is

paying rent relative to globally now to dublin, down on that. that's why germany, what they've done to giga berlin's shown works. so not only are germans and americans making test was they're buying them to over half a 1000000 were bought in the us last year. but another big buyer is sweden. so in these countries where tesla's are parts for the cars are made or serviced, there is on rest, like in sweden, where workers are protesting. swedish tests of mechanics have blocked off the job. though their number is small, the movement has sparked solidarity efforts across not only sweden, but also denmark. doc workers are refusing to unload test flows and for weeks the postal service refused to test for deliveries. the swedish mechanics want the company to sign a collective bargaining agreement, which would let them negotiate for higher wages, pensions, and the like. workers' rights are an issue in germany to german media has reported numerous concerns among giga, berlin, employees,

about working conditions. from the usa, especially from the c o, probably comes a lot of pressure to, to deliver numbers to the, to could use cos and to sell those costs. and yeah, and in the end to provide the numbers for the sale. what else? right. so, so that the stock goes up and so you can buy in of a way to or whatever you want to go. not, hey, man is a member of the id metal union in germany and was employed by test. why must company has so far blocked unionization, that it's factories, but it works. council is in place. i get factory, berlin, and non union nature. it's been part of the success of the past. i've been there not. i wouldn't say i have the overhead and that some of these other automakers have by having union and that's really how much built it. and i don't see that changing tensions by you a that'd be and others that will go after him. but the going to be of the different drugs, and that's been

a big part of their success being non union. we wanted to know what did the people who live in, in near, good high to think about the factory and the working conditions. it is difficult. i mean, but i do think that it's like, do you think problems step to solve be sold in the future? yeah, i haven't. yeah. i've noticed ambulances drive up there every day that people are injured quite often. isn't the opinion. i, we know someone who used to work for test allowed to do it, but he quits straight away because it didn't work out and he sticks up. i don't think he even got work close. tesla made a world wide offset around 12 and a half $1000000000.20. but what is the true cost of buying one of these futuristic cool all electric vehicles? well, hosting a giga factory brings jobs, but also working conditions that can lead to injuries likes here in germany. and a factory with such a large footprint can also stream local resources and make regions experiencing

drought face even greater limitations. tesla has been an innovator for years, so there's still room to improve. and water usage or working conditions could actually be another frontier that this american company confidently and strides it to the and it's not about talk is done a car collection like no other raj, i'm much are huge. that far as passion knows no bounds from pop culture. james, to historic machines. his 40 strong sleeved is a model that far hills from a wealthy family in revel pinning date with a background in real estate. he himself works in agriculture, capital, funding, and fishing. as a young boy, he runs witness the classic hall being dismantled, the glint of shining metal was resistible to him. and a passion for old machines was sparked i was about
