of the, the, this is the new pizelle, a 3008, appealing electric s u v q pay. and it is by no means the 1st car of this type on the market. so we have to compare it to its arrival. its welcome through

the different versions for the 3008. the 1st one that we're testing right now is a $210.00 horse power, $157.00 kilowatt electric engine with 527 kilometers of range. the same range is through for the all wheel drive version that has $320.00 horse power, $240.00 kilowatts of power. and then of course days the long range version, which has $230.00 horse power, $170.00 kilowatts, and up to 700 kilometers of range. so if you compare those driving numbers to, for example, the test model, while we dealt with use id 5 pro performance, they are all quite similar gods around 530 killed. let us offer range. you have

a prize over on 50000 euros. the only thing is the test is way more powerful, so it's of course faster. they can go up to 217 kilometers an hour. why a p u always kept at 170 kilometers an hour in the v. w at even $160.00, to be fair though, the difference in price is around $4000.00 euros more for the test so that you have to pay for the additional power the, the general driving impression in the show a 3008 is quite good. it is very well insulated, you don't have a lot of wind noise in the interior, which gives you a pleasant ride comfort if you compare that to test. so it is a little better i would say, but on the same level about as being able to use $85.00 the,

the suspension is nothing special. it does exactly what you would expect from an s u b. it is around the soft, so you have the car rolling a little bit into curves, but nothing too wild, so it's absolutely ok. the heat, 3008 is the 1st car to be based on the new s t l. a medium platform from this to this group. so 70 does the platform provide up to 700 kilometers of pure electric range due to a scalable architecture. it can also be used with different body types and sizes of call with a length of 4.54 meters under width of 1.89 meters to 83000 dates. not seen at the lower end of the electric as easy to pace in this class. the interior of the potato,

a 3008, looks are really good, high quality, nice materials. and i always like the steering wheat of op is your model, since it's simply so small, nicely to operate, gives you a good feeling. the best part in the middle is not exactly what i would prefer, but it's still okay. i've seen worse. what i don't like is that high gloss black here. it's not touch operated. that's good. so you can't use them on the accidents because you have to actually press them. but you have quite a lot of high glucose blake here in the center console in the middle. but then you have that beautiful, 21 inch wide screen display which has all the information that you need to offer. busy that so in for payment system, an instrument costa in $1.00 big screen that is not standard for the entry level version. the one it is to attend introduce base and by they also connected with

some sort of high goes back. so it looks similar the, the thing i also really like it is that this but right here where you can place shortcuts. so you simply keep that pressed, then it will highlight and then you can choose on the screen here in the center. what ever function you would like to place it right down there that you can see right here we have illumination, you can choose from a few colors. we'll show you a picture of that during the night. they can see it better. i think it looks really good, but it can be a little bit distracting because you have reflections of that in the window. it's not that bright, so it's ok. but if you see it, then for a few minutes you can see it. the $3008.00 can be challenged with speeds of up to a $160.00 kilowatts of dc. challenge. u haul filed with false charging results and

upwards of 250 kilometers of range. the thing that is not too good with the 3008 is the visibility to the rear. that is not only a pure joe problem, it is fall a cd co pays simply by the way they are built at the rear. the the what is quite nice with the e. 3008 is that it has pedals behind the steering wheel where you can choose the level of freight corporation, the different levels of possible. and with the highest level you can basically use it for one pedal drive because the breaking is quite strong. the only thing is, if you actually want to stop completely, then you have to apply the brakes at the end because the car will not stop on its own. on like for example baubles, x 30, all post to all the costs that have that function. i don't know why know, at all manufacturers do this because it is basically real one pedal drive. but

okay, now also enough manufacturers that don't have it where you need to apply the brakes at the end. the in markets that do have a few months a year that are either cold, the heat pump in the car comes as standard. and that is a very good thing because you will save quite that all up energy. if you compare that in the french market, for example, you have a water heater stand that they will use up to $7.00 kilowatts of energy to heat up the water prices for the $3000.00 dates begin at just over 48000 to your eyes to the entry level model, the sum up my a 3008 experience. it is a very solid car. that, of course, has its price. but if you compare it to all those in that segment,

is me the jeep know, very expensive. so it fits into that segment quite well in the end, it's always a choice. what you like in terms of these line, be it on the interior on the exterior, and i have to say the easy 1008 looks way better then. for example, the 95 for a test off on the sides, the 3000 to h is quite the nica inside on down. the platform has the flexibility in terms of body style, which makes the downside, like korea visibility and compromise. please face the mind. vw go one of the most successful cause in the world. extraordinary ordinary.

but what's so special about it? nothing. there is nothing exceptional. everything fits and i conic gym and call this remains true to itself. 50 is spectacularly spectacular. i'm going in a golf in its various generations, was always recognizable as a gulf. i came by my will. you knew what you had the the ghost, the most successful german car hold time appeals to young and older. like it's tom pulled in 35000000 by as well as wide across the schools that she'll come see the the senior dr. drew up to the clinic in a gulf. the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and then delivered his

letters and another golf. no matter your social class or your job, it's just a normal car, i'm honest. i went to the gulf. this come cut the whole world from brazil to south africa in many places. it's become part of the national culture and survived policing. a people getting up out of date, the doors in accessible to a lot of the old products. but then after that, then we got our free domain. it was accessible to a new one. volkswagen means a lot to virginia and culture and especially the goal models that we have here and what's next to the gulf. best seated divisive debate about that on the sixty's, but these efforts because the challenge now is to continue the success story and also the you don't have to revolutionize everything if you think what's there isn't that bad. the, the goal is, is in a way,

a symbol of the tragedy activity happening in the motive industry. the people's beloved receiving the size of using them go yeah they, they, they did a quick job. they those that are boosting and cut these in. and this revolutionary started selling that comes from the city with southern european flag to a jet to, to jot or broke, or conventions in the early 19 seventy's to create a sensible come. com the to include there still it's form architecture and technical and functional framework are like the harmonies of a hit song cause or hold on that movie. i do not com. solar get there. well, match notes that create a harmony when you put them together. you see a man, you're not only a charo who is vice

a designer of the century for creating unique and legendary vehicles for a wide variety of combat because was commissioned by volkswagen to develop a success to the b team made it radically different from the perennial best seller, angular instead of round the front instead of re a wheel drive was a cold instead of at the gulf was smaller than the beat, little me outside, much room yet on the inside stood up. the 2nd feature of the golf. i'll show you here. the email itself sloping a pillar and the slope in good shape. while the belt line is lower, delta you boss. so they are the facets of these notices. like those used to compose music, russell brand a surprise, those who look at it with

a harmony, as that's not perceived with the conscious mind. and so the people just feel that and people immediately felt the benefits of the call vw to launch the gulf gti for drive, it seems like 240. since then, the gulf has consistently being the best selling caught in gemini, frequently in europe. and then somebody is even worldwide takes over. that's a big well yes, i believe that the gulf actually managed to bend the site guide of the industry and to sheet metal nice to approve and technology that was very solve. i'd say that you could rely on you see a so lead to box the message for less than 20 the gulf is now and its 8th generation call that change the industry and even established a new vehicle category. the golf club. as it's called the gulf,

it's really changed in 50 is the, it's not 60 citizens. they have actually managed to change the golf very gradually, slowly and then evolution every way. so that's what a new generation is. very reminiscent. it's of the old one, the noise you cannot see on the see on the customers have now been scared off by a completely new design or the installation noise design testing is that's why there is a very strong customer loyalty to this. cough because you knew what you had most of us might have to. the best of, of us accost development can be found in the world's largest private goals collection in the austrian town of chicago. use if use a has brought together a 114 gulf ranging from the most unusual wood sliding doors to the fastest cubes. gti models,

the it's the go. fans life slack. tech colors, days a gulf because it was the 1st vehicle where everything really was just right. i used to drive all brands, almost all brands. when i was young, the 1st time the golf really was the car you sat in and everything was just right. the perfect car as if it had been built for me or just been helping me keep old one the other many go funds phones clubs to cultivate the passion i'm the own is if the 1st model series from the 19 seventy's gather at the meetings of one such great, cold, original goals one but people from all walks of life come together here. there's him onto the go. as a senior doctor drove to the clinic in a gulf, the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and delivered his letters and another girl now and the secretary and the factory drove a golf and the boss. his wife may have also had a golf as a private car. it's

a class this car under stated, reliable, practical. in that sense, it offers everything you still need to get from a to be today. i don't know when i'm up, let's come. there were even some gulf one who knows who bolt that causing the former east. germany. in 1978. volkswagen delivered 10000 goals that in exchange for seat metal teaching, oil and tires. it wasn't easy for people to to get the hands on the gulf. sign hot, martinez got lucky because he'd registered with the also receipts for an east german con long before and so he was able to get to west gym and come that he could work on. and he's got the numbers for the interview at the time. i worked for an intern for the i guess, a test engineer, livings, but i wasn't in conrad didn't, so i approached it up domestically. i thought that i knew you have to get your hands on this car. so of course i gave up the lot. i had registered for 12 years earlier in order to get it a lot of goals. so all the rage. no,

certainly in east germany, but so incoming, if you could smell the foundations to the gulf. enthusiasm in the balkans were laid back in the 19 seventy's and remain in place today. by then, volkswagen produced the 1st gulf models made in sorry, eva today the both in the in capital as possible. the joint venture is like a circle closer to the dream of every average. yugoslavian was to own a gulf. of course you had to wait for a golf. you had the money for it to him. oh no, that's not on the wait was up to 6 months. i was able to save some money so that i could make my dream come true. it was a big deal for me as a young man, i'm cold. my generation will get what i'm talking about is on such as on september seconds, production facilities with knowledge he destroyed and nipples me in full between 1992 and 95 goals. production was discontinued, but people's in c, o z. as in,

for the german call has the volume, the same email address is i'm most most useful and i the whole, the emotions about that see years for with about survival. and often that was the tendency for the people to feel themselves. again, like the normal people, again that some like in south africa to the gulf has survived the change in political systems and is now part of the country's culture. like a witness to history, it joined the long journey of the black population from the oppression of a pol tied to the present day. the leading up update the doors in accessible

to a lot of the bill pennies, maybe to is still expensive. those ones who as a compressed but then after then we got the freedom i think i think it became accessible to. yeah. to almost everyone, a very special golf model was even built in south africa because the goals to which replace the one in 1994 was too complex and expensive for south africa. the gulf one simply continued to be built that in a slightly modified form. under the name city gulf is that my 2007 c 2 glo feed was a base motors, and that's how it looks from inside. i can go outside and show you the old site as well. from the m k. one too busy to go. this is how you differentiate them. this elaine. yeah. so the, that's how you differentiate those. c a m k one doesn't have the deadline,

but busy 2 gloves have been the wind production of the city gulf was finally discontinued in 2009. the whole country bid farewell to the favorite. com with emotional outgoing the i think you don't remember the day. you saw a belfry paid will never die because there's people who look of them in. you live for a. i'm gonna save one for my son. he's built 2 years old. yeah. so you'll find it maybe lane is 18 or printing london using testbed dealers. whatever is owned by they use loading tests. they about 2 bits for myself. the the brazilians go to specially built muscles. the vw go, one of the country's most popular calls between 19802022. although it had the audi 80 and vw passat dna, it came with bodies styles,

reminiscent of the polo and gulf wagon means a lot to brazilian culture, especially for like the goal models that we have here. the created goal to be a cheaper car for families from our simpler people, which is the base off of birds, you know, and even in from people take that hats off to the gulf. a special exhibition that the wrench and the bill classic co show in paris commemorates the gulf history. probably the only phone call that has ever managed to seriously compete with the french like whole favorites. which is a car from abroad that left its mark on the french. you was suddenly driving a car that was incredibly young situ, onto a cd, for example. it was a comfortable french car, but none of our cars had that dynamism. some. wow, so i mean, if i do not need you to the,

the gulf really is more than just to come go stands for a way of life. who am i the profession of faith, the if you live with it, i didn't if i with it. so in a way the expressing generation golf makes sense of to 50 low me is the days of the go flip tonight. they would numbers as volkswagen propose for new age of mobility, electro mobility with the development of the id model series. but doesn't count the gulf out just yet. i just wanted to see got that has now been a change in product strategy, volkswagen. the id 3 which i positioned in the same vehicle classes the gulf was unable to build on the goals success because i'm just, i'm a now volkswagen. he's going the other way and taking these well known performance characteristics of the gulf and transforming them into electric mobility home. yet

the in india electron mobility it once i know is to build on it psychotic history and continue the success story with an electric car onto the 1st. cuz she's the ultimate, i'm electrical all to life at this time. and this is what it could look like. the goals, 9 was electric drive, which will be launched, the earliest in 2026. the goal is in a way assemble on the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. we are changing over to new engines, namely the electric engines that complaints have different parameters and stay in the car, maintains exactly the same shape as before. so when vito became goals, changing the engine, the change also the shape. now 50 is a to the 1st goals. i believe we have to understand that the way we use cause it's a scholarly change. and so it's quite of

a tragedy that's with them just as we keep the goals forever the we by the gods because of the meaning of it. and in a new word, which is the one we are approaching, that should be new meanings. could it be times that you'll get to job to to radically redesign vw use best selling model? doesn't b, w need a little revolution? every 50 is likely the italian no. any works but chinese comp make has ended his collaboration with volkswagen in 2015 in design. it's not democratic. you understand how people deal. i didn't have the freedom to propose the things i wanted to do when i agreed to join that large corporate group . the result i'm bigger, they don't have any courage because they're the men in charge and they don't want to put their positions of power at risk or thrown. they don't take risks,

they do things more or less the same as ever in order to avoid risks. because they don't have any vision up, but you thought these are the vision is what led georgette to job to, to create, to milestones in order to motif design the you always have live to and built a career out of my absolute freedom. because when i made my 1st cars, i had incredible freedom to the time delay dw, go a symbol of freedom and creative a t in college design. because everyone which people and young all over the world have embrace the calm. but just to come, the flagship of the gem and automotive industry. it's tom, it's glorious,

it's opinions to split from one nice to head for the more automotive tales. next time on read the

to see chris as well. just now co laurie is, what is the role in the cop health system? most of age sense to their integrity in this line of work. they serve them to organized crime, a rag livingston, to the legal chambers of mexico's drug massey. if you're coming up on the w astonishing breaks down skills, french don says, be boy,

julia don francis docs the just by having tell you or maybe it's thanks to it is unique style speaks for itself. next on the olympics, you're on that. in 90 minutes on dw the d big ocean, the beauty companies play a role in the destruction of the rain forest. i have time to raise all over brazilian reprocess. 30000 hides a day. 90 percent of that is on the forward market. the auto industry, for example, the letter will actually cost awesome comes from initial capital times in the m, as in. yet the automobile industry doesn't care about the supply chain process. all

that much. illegal leather stats may stood on d, w, the project cassandra re determined through our investigation that has below was operating like a global drug car. not something you normally see. tariffs, organization, the object to financially drain has gone up and bring them down. suddenly we had in las vegas to attack at a terrace organization. finance. the idea is the fall of the money, the team agents from the american drug enforcement agency. i was scared. i mean, as well as not a whole lot. they want to do actually money. i wanted to take down their findings. they had from lies themselves. we needed to reveal that so world and to their own people as i did, the us government suddenly shut down project cassandra in 2016. so the opportunity
