7:30 am
[000:00:00;00] the the people, when you're driving a film car, it's like a little vacation from daily life. you feel special? the media is getting my files and then where is the ultimate market growing as fast as in the world's most populous country?
7:31 am
well, the industry seems to be determined here. it goes, looking very attractive as a comma. see, just the number goes to 4000000 cause now, you know, which is which is quite high. it could be the view china in the 20 so that to use. so it's not about making money in the next year. it's about making money in the next 20 to 30 years. and that's why you have to go to in general, how important is india for the gym and automotive industry? now for the deal, for decades to do political backdrop with us, one thing i'm needing to diversify. india is a country that we simply con, signal, and diminish for by from the also most, you've multi, it's in india, a promising,
7:32 am
but it's so difficult and highly complex to rate i guess the you will not be successful. so be careful when you go there. could be a role that come in for just play and yep, my advice would be to, to really go into the direction of the elected cause and try to position themselves as a leader in the 2nd with the india they will take the plunge because uh you know, uh the racing and uh it just started and this could be one of the be the markets of the word in the future. i'm sure, with the choice of the life or not so good jobs in the new market. it's not just the population growing faust in india, the more than 1400000000 people need solutions for daily transportation and comp. production is key to this more calls and now being built in india than gemini off to china and japan, the country is one of the world's largest comp produces. volkswagen, for example, has been trying to become
7:33 am
a play in the indian market for over 2 decades. and has its own production facilities, but the germans still lack fall behind to market, lead them the root t suzuki and some korean and indian companies in sales. and the around 50000 sco does and 40000 v definitely use the sold in india if we it for the columns. and now being we shuffled in india is car industry. one reason is the in some cases, domestic environmental damage and air pollution in the country. this is also forcing comp offices like the head of indian market, lead to my routine suzuki, to rethink their approach in response to the emission knobs that the government has described going forward. i think there seems to be a consensus that the long the electric vehicles will be mainstream star, very impressed by the speed of transformation in india. and that makes us optimistic, natural transformation to
7:34 am
e mobility can also really take off in india this time. now the reason the indian automotive industry assessing a new course is geo political changes. the european union in particular, is keeping close track of how india's relationship with china is changing the rail a little bit. always you true of looking to east and west. but now the recognize that china is really playing hot game geopolitically also specifically regarding the south china sea and to i was in the last year and i felt that they are no more open to negotiate with you and was the united states. it's no wonder volkswagen. he's also making another attempt to find success in india, the germans, and now launching a co operation with indian call make him a hand truck. we will supply our electric drive and batteries sell
7:35 am
technology to our colleagues in india that has benefits. of course we have additional scale, so we achieve more value on the new world thrives on volume and benefits from the economies of scale that we bring to the technology. and i think it's good not to put all your eggs in one basket. in other words, not everything is focused on the chinese markets. gem and comic has set about 40 percent of the vehicles to china. companies like vw has played a role in the countries transition from bicycles to cost and made a hefty profits in the process. but india is not china, according to how much sort of g, one of india is most important. automotive generalist luxury, gun market in china is huge. in india, it's, you know, out on 4050000 causes a yard. so i was volumes, i concentrated at the lower end of the market, which have very small margins, very difficult for companies to make money over that. if you look at the german
7:36 am
common effect as being particularly strong in selling large luxury to type of vehicles. that is not really the market that they feel comfortable with. i think china small cars with lower margins have traditionally been more challenging for us here at the and manufacturers and there, which is again the topic of small cause. the ones from the routing suzuki has dominated india's roads over 40 years. in 1981 depends, suzuki founded a joint venture with india as mer routine which would head the country's largest call, making its vehicles of almost singlehandedly, made india mo bile they invested a lot of time and money to get into this country. that was not a foss lane weight. really good basic reason for uh, being marketed needed for such a long time is all of the, of the session with customers. so all our processes, our systems, our products,
7:37 am
everything is designed on the customer because are very suitable for and, and customized data efficient data. you have any fuel efficient. the cost of ownership is very, very little, very live a good resale value. it can be fixed anywhere in the country. so really, you know, it's just the way the full truck wouldn't be doing. was a name and the art of you know, after the ease of nice on on life, on the india new volkswagen locals. i know when near as successful as the beetle was lengthening the wind gem and caused a note so well received by indians is best explained by sha shank tree, bust of uh the head different routine visit the some of the products which have been introduced by by by the european manufacturers here. uh the uh,
7:38 am
audit mismatch of the requirement of consumers, the sort of transporting the products which where they're designed for other countries. and then basic history is about the a success in other places. and you can't really draw support all your systems audio but thinking it, you know, 100 percent into in your area which could be totally different. and in gain that sense is stem and he's actually call industry missing them off the indian market. since 2010 volkswagen has been selling the po that but the perennial vw favorites, a world wide success has been pleading money in india. this will quote good. that's not really book yet. so because every market, every,
7:39 am
every client group has its own specific needs that volkswagen also seems to be nothing. permit setbacks, the company loans the india to point to project to 2021 full models designed exclusively for the indian market. this go to push check. let's go to sleep via of dw tie goon ton vw versus a sending like cakes. maybe even they let the car for him getting conditions which is uh, especially with the sedan given focus on the seat. 3 seat is quite important in india drunk driving, so it's very important in india. and all these factors have been taken care of. the indian hold somebody to monkeys in a state about people e mobility and the desire for more luxury are increasingly influencing ca, production, and 11 to hold. more or more su fees have recently been rolling off. the production line at lewis's in t says okay, but 5 deos knows the indian custom up better than any other car manufacturer. and that's why the 1st electric com to reach
7:40 am
e suzuki is known king in the country is as an s easy. yes. so you do the media to be e, as in the most expensive, and yes for the side, it will be expensive. be followed the customer brandon business wind. you know, if the su market is not 50 percent and you keep making this model, i did all the time, may not desire to may not be warning done. so results for the market. you just 3 or 4 years back. almost 50 percent was a how just because a small gosh. and i remember about 1015 years back. i just mean up almost 6065 percent of the market. so it's been changing. even if not everyone is cracking open champaign. the standard of living in india is rising, for at least the design of some people's state. the more money is the more money to spend. they will move up towards the automotive chain, right from entry level because they were called the middle class and it was
7:41 am
a number of luxury vehicles when we grow. and i think these up thoughts, trent, this is something which really plays into the cards of flight to the hands of uh for a manufacturer, has to have quality products to provide good with video dixon logic. look nice people's gem and come manufacturers would certainly not be the lose is in the transformation. the indian society is currently undergoing the foster corporate indians, which used to love to save earlier. now they want to spend their lives, they only have one life and they need to enjoy it. so there's a shift and even mindset from the indian consumer. and then we live in an instagram age. so everyone wants to, you know, have the same ad digitally as well. so they buy cars as a way to show the show office to come. another thing, fortunately, isn't made in gemini, still come on special attention in india,
7:42 am
i'm typing in. and as the only thing a gem and product is actually a very, very powerful state to civil pat this, this and this fact, this is a growing very mercedes, b, m, w. all the dropped, the record saves the highest. i wouldn't the is be my kind of i phone the hoffman. does this frontier is i can only hope we will move away from this luck. shoot me version of a gym and call it and move it more more towards the mid range and the mid range vehicles will also be successful. and i'm just, i can create an app. so i've got folks, i sent a lot so it's all manufacturers are working on that. so it doesn't um that on the i buy from the hash that out. even if sales election we cause of increasing the segments didn't accounts for no more than one percent of the total market. india.
7:43 am
after all the gym and luxury car exposure to india is 3 times more expensive than in gemini, complex systems, customs duties in texas, the following cause according to vehicle class. it also takes into account the proportion of india and results is used in manufacturing. the european union is currently scrambling to reach a free trade agreement with india so that you're being charged for really a fab chance on the low end market. you have got this is joyce alice. we've heard there's definitely move partner association. asthma is now clearly in favor of a free trade agreement with the group and also in favor of tariff, this modeling. that's a good thing. but of course, indian manufacturers and even japanese manufacturers investing in india don't want to surrender that high tariffs so easily released on salary. so i'm yeah, cables, indian prime minister in adventure,
7:44 am
emoji has been skilfully steering india's economic policy for use cosmopolitan. and at the same time, conservative and traditional on one hand, they want to protect the growing industry by uh, let's say a heavy 2nd. the 2nd trade, the presidency says drum good. yes. but they put their 0 on the other hand, they also likes to do or even basement to dish or sierra. and every government in such a situation need to find the right balance between free and the market and a proper protection of the, of the growing industry behind market need. and the routing suzuki, indian companies, tata, and my hinge and making up more and more ground manufacturers the to very committed to and let me try my benefits but india is still heavily reliant on external health when it comes to battery production. that's why prime minister moody has been in close contact with tesla boss, you know,
7:45 am
months for years the to and now negotiating intensively once again of the optimal conditions for the american e. com manufacturer on the end of the month. just as a convention is that, you know, they want to test the market, they want to be competitive and they know they want to, they will eventually start manufacturing, cause u. s. lies up is the 1st of july of the world. everyone wants test um, and it will be a great statement for the indian government to have that slot, bring a manufacturing set up over here. and what we understand it will be for a low cost model which is below the model t writes. now, another ambitious project by chinese, the cost competitive b, y d has ended. however, it wanted to invest $1000000000.00 us dollars for the production of e cause and batteries in india. but the indian government stops the factory for being built. it's no point so dense that this has happened after uh, there was
7:46 am
a big border sco, make sure our, our board, our fight read, the shortages on both sides lost their lives, you know, the worst we've had since. i mean more than 50 years. so tensions between india and china had been very high because of issue is at our borders. so this obviously has had an impact on uh, you know, lets say chinese companies investing as an economic disputes between 2 giants in the country with a democratic constitution. and china, which is increasingly turning into an autocratic dictatorship team. yeah, has recognized, that's a geo political situation, has changed. it was a valid, it all varies, neutral. but now the recognize that china is really playing hot game geopolitically in india, which is growing as a play it and opening up to the global markets. now the big opportunity for europe
7:47 am
in comic the, he's been out of the, you know, the world doesn't revolve around to europe. and india is increasingly self confident because they know they're in attractive market for many, many countries. and that was the saying, well, things call and go on like they are. the interests of the global south must be given much, much greater consideration, backup of assistive, bad. and the only thing we need to understand the big picture. yeah, i don't believe that just because they're not getting on so well with china now that they'll run into our um, so go to so based on the team that does it. and then one for the volkswagen group is clearly not waiting for the indians to come running into it sounds together with its in the in putnam a hindrance it simply getting to look and produce directly to is just to supply it age but. but that is doc or going for that or maybe doing
7:48 am
some enjoying product development. and i think a, what we've heard, and we broke into the story actually that is a discussion between score now and mind which court are taking the lead for the it may be $21.00 gene which is the low cost um i the platform for india. so there's a new uh, let's say low cost of a smaller i the platform coming in that volkswagen and score dot active, launching it in there. they would id like a collaboration with the my hands that make sense. europe has long been waiting for the 1st to low cost gym and electric call that's truly affordable for everyone. will it go into series production that my interest in be in town? diseases potentially solid? india might well be signing manufacturing. yes, they could be effective for other markets to not turn this route to market with a 1000000000 people. and i found to have an impact on europe. so it's, i'm hunting them, but i'll smoke and have
7:49 am
a whole present. come on for laws against all to achieve the impossible for some journey. even the sky east. india is taking off on gym and companies are hoping to be right in the sick of things. i'm sure uh with the choice of, uh, the united products uh, cost. uh it'd be, you know, drilling, manufacturer, that'd be great jobs and in a month it'd be, have great respect for them. i mean, it's a great down in the engineering expertise, but the engine to be do the excellence in terms of the bus manship and so on the line from germany and vehicle bob, you will be back on the i'm the with the increased the collaboration to jump it
7:50 am
sounds like an invitation to jem and call make has to try that. lucky man. do you have a great adventure weight smoke so i couldn't bmw mercedes with a lot today with one so a lot to lose the congested streets are effective life and shooting is the capital of chain is yeah. and that means lots of pollution decisions. center is teeming with delivery vehicles. if they will sell the pallet and policy would be vastly improved. a gem and juniors and starts out taking notes and as manufacturing. so that's how it's 3 wheelers. there's no need for charging stations because the vehicles have panels on the roof, which was
7:51 am
a 3 wheeler because of the window is very efficient. and the they don't consume a lot of energy and the weight is very long. and we the, if the weight is very light and we have very small, multiple, very small index of multiple of $1500.00 watts. uh, if you put $500.00 to upon is it fits together. it's an ideal solution to add man lose. who has a wholesale business, he's for one of the vehicles and has calculated that he's saving the equivalent of about a 150 years and fuel expenses among to the see thing i thought the was electric image and also making and this is very easy. i knew quite and you know, there's no reading a new new boiler chain. yeah. almost nothing that needs service thing is and the engine is robust up into a very good quality. uh, it'll boost to the tennessee the gem and she knew the install shop has sold
7:52 am
a $146.00. so that's how the vehicles in june is here. and is now coming to open branch is in saudi arabia and then lagos, nigeria, hopefully they'll soon be helping reduce pollution, just to say on here in june, this, the martine hahn's mission in life is to resurrect cars. that broke film or t. v. history. and put them back into action. he pushes his replica of kit to its limits, just like david hassle hosted in the night, right, or tv series. and he takes this original dodge ice charger for a spin near his hometown of golf and shock, lower austria. true to its name, the car even caught a few good figures on ice and the 8 part of the fast and furious movies series. it
7:53 am
took, marking hon about 4 years, working by hand to replicate them. that po, it's hard to spot any difference to the jet turbine powered vehicles that overtook every villain in the batman movies of 1989. when you're driving a film car, it's like a little vacation from daily life. i thought you feel special. everybody looks at you and you feel a bit like a superstar in the car. i mean, the amount of mounting hans daily routine involves working as an insurance agent. he's been collecting film cars since 2006. sometimes he buys the originals, but often he recreate them himself. blank his leg version of kit complete with the super pursuit mode. familiar to fans of the tv show. after working on a car like this for years and investing so much time and money, it's a priceless experience. when you take a seat in the complete car. very high level, my goal is traveling at excessive speed. his kid may not talk like the one on
