the spots, the cds checked on some great cultural memorials to boot dw, travel. we got the, this is the new pizelle, a 3008, appealing electric s u, v. co 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. it's welcome to read

the different versions. busy of 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 true 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 horsepower, $170.00 kilowatts, and up to 700 kilometers of range the . so if you compare those driving numbers to, for example, a test i model why or be able to use id 5 pro performance. they are all, quite simon. now you got around 530 kilometers 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 while the fish always kept at $172.00. i was an hour in the vw 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. uh, it is a little better i would say, but on the same level about as being able to use id 5 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 while so it's absolutely ok the the 3008 is the 1st car to be based on the new s t l, a medium platform from this the largest group, so 70 does the platform provide up to 700 kilometers. it's pure electric range due to a scalable architecture. it can also be used for different body types and sizes of call with a length of 4.54 matches and a width of 1.89 meters to 83000 dates not seen at the lower end of the an electric

s 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 wheel off off of your model, since it's simply so small, nicely to operate, gives you a good feeling that 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 up, right? 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 black 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 operate . so for the payment system and the instrument costa, and $1.00 big screen that is not standard for the entry level version, the one it is to 10 inch this base. my they also connected with some sort of high

goes back. so it looks similar. the thing i also really like 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 3000 they can be challenged with speeds of up to a 160 kilowatts of dc. child u haul 5 or false. charging results in upwards of 250 kilometers of range. the

thing that is not so good with the 3008 is the visibility to the rear. that is not only a pure jo 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 easy 3008 is that it has pedals behind the steering wheel. way you can choose the level of freight corporation, the different levels of possible, and with the highest levels 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 not all manufacturers do this because it is basically real one pedal drive. but ok

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 of the energy. if you compare that in the french market, for example, you have uh water heater stand that they will use up to 7.5 kilowatts of energy to heat up. the water prices for the 3000 dates begin at just over 48000 during the entry level model, the time of my a 3008 experience. it is a very solid car that of course has its price. but if you compare. busy to

all those in that segment is me the cheap no, 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 side, be it on the interior on the exterior. and i have to say the easily 1008 looks way better then. for example, the $95.00 for a test off on the sides. the 3000 to h is quite the nica inside and out on the platform has the flexibility in terms of body style, which makes the downsides, like korea, visibility, and compromise. please face the mind. b, w, go one is the most successful cause in the world. extraordinarily ordinary but

what's so special about it? nothing. there is nothing exceptional. everything fits and i conic jim and ca that's remains to to itself to 50 is spectacularly spectacular. i'm going in a golf and it's various generations was always recognizable as a gulf. i can, but we knew what you had the the goals, the most successful german car hold time appeals to young and older like it's time told and 35000000 by as well as wide across schools that she'll come see this is the senior dr. drew up to the clinic in a gulf, the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and then deliberate is letters

and another golf. no matter your social class or your job, it's just a normal car. mine is all to the gulf is come, cut the whole world from brazil to south africa in many places. it's become part of the national culture and survived policy co op vault getting out. but the doors in accessible to a lot of the old printers, but then after that then we got our free domain was accessible to a new one. volkswagen means a lot to visit in culture and especially for the goal models that we have here. and what's next to the gulf, best heated divisive debate about that on the sixty's. but these efforts to see 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 assemble on the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. the people's beloved receiving the size of using the via the they, they didn't, they, those that are boost name, cut design. and this revolutionary style, just something that comes from it today with southern european slash to get to, to jot or broke all conventions in the early 19 seventy's to create a sensible come. com. the best of luck to you, to do is go there. still it's form architecture and technical and functional framework are like the harmony of a hit song will cause the console there. yeah, there. well, match notes that create a harmony when you put them together. you see a man, you're not moving on to joe who is vice with design or if the century for creating

unique and legendary vehicles for a wide variety of comic because was commissioned by volkswagen to develop a success the to the beat. and he made it radically different from the perennial best seller. angular instead of rounds, the french instead of rear wheel drive was the cold instead of at the gulf was smaller than the beetle of me outside. much room, yet on the inside stood up to the feature of the gulf. i'll show you here a good email. it's slow paying a taylor and the slope in good shape. while the belt line is lower, dr. new bozza so spread they are, the facets of these notices, like those used to compose music. most of the brand, they surprise those who look at it with

a harmony that's not perceived with the conscious mind. and so the people just feel that and people immediately felt the benefits of the com vw, su, launched the gulf gti for drive. it seems like 240 since then, the gulf has consistently being the best selling caught in germany, frequently in europe and didn't somebody is even worldwide. so but 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 to a proven technology that was very solve. i'd say that you couldn't rely on the you see a so the, the last few months is for less than 20 the gulf is now and its 8th generation. a call that change the industry and even established a new vehicle category. the golf club. as it's called the gulf,

there's no really change in 50 is the it's not 60, so it doesn't. it's gonna 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 into the old one. you know, 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 car because you knew what you had most of us might have to the best of, as he lives 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 with sliding doors to the fastest cubes. gti models,

the it's the go fans life slack tech. those 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 all to and the other many go funds phones clubs to cultivate the passion i'm the own is if the 1st model series from the 1970s gather at the meetings of one such great cold, original gulf one. but people from all walks of life come together. here was the senior doctor drove to the clinic and a gulf. the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and delivered his letters in another. go 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 to the one. i'm not let's come there. even some golf one who knows who vote 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 that to get the hands on the gulf sign hot . martinez got lucky because he'd registered with the also routines for an east german call long before. and so he was able to get to west gym and come that he could work on. and he's got the most for the interview at the time. i worked for intern fluid as a test engineer, but i wasn't to conrad in, so i approached it up domestically. i know i 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, totally in east germany,

but so incoming. it's too small and the foundation. so the gulf enthusiasm in the balkans were laid back in the 19 seventy's. i'm remain in place today. then volkswagen produced the 1st gulf models made in. sorry, eva today the buzz me 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 gulf if you had the money for it to him. oh no, that's not on the weight 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 job such as on september 2nd, production facilities with knowledge he destroyed and supposed to be involved between 1992 and 95 gulf 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 beautiful. and i the whole, the emotions about that see years for this, about survival of several. that was the tendency for the people to feel themselves again, like to normal. again, that some like in south africa to the gulf has survived a change in political systems and is now part of the country's culture. like a witness to history, it joined the loan journey of the black population from the oppression of a pol tied to the present day. the evening i bought the doors in accessible

to a little bill price. maybe those bill expensive. those ones who as a compressed but then after then we got our 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 this is that my 2007 c 2 glo feed was a base motors and that's how it looks from insight. i can go outside and show you the old site as well. from the m k one to the c to glove. this is how you differentiate them, just letting you. so the that's how you differentiate those. c, a m k one doesn't have a deadline,

but this the 2 gloves have the when production of the city goes 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 the belfry paid will never die because there's people who look of them in it will live for a. i'm going to save one for my son. he's built 2 years old. yeah. so you'll find it maybe when he's 18 or printing london using cars pay the low so whatever is owned by they use loading tests, they about tickets for myself, the the brazilians got a specially built model. the vw go, one of the country's most popular calls between 19182022. although it had the audi 80 and vw passat dna, it came with body style is 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 the birds you know, and even in from people take the hassle off to the gulf. a special exhibition at the restroom. the bill classic co show in paris commemorates the gulf history. probably the only foreign call this has ever managed to seriously compete with the french like coal favorites. of what you a car from abroad that left its mark on the french. you were 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. something. wow. so i mean, if i do not need you to the

gulf, really is more than just to come go stands for a way of life. who am i, the profession of faith, the money you live with it, identify with it. so in a way the expression generation golf makes sense of to 50 long years. the days of the go flip tonight, they would numbers as volkswagen proposed for a 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. a 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 community in india, electron mobility, once the i know is to build on it psychotic history and continue the success story with an electric call on these are supposed to seek the ultimate, i'm elect will all to live at this time. and this is what it could look like. the goals, 9 with the electric drive, which will be launched, the earliest in 2026. the goal is in the way a symbol of the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. we are changing over to new engines, namely the electric engines. they're completed 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 of 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

a quarter of a tragedy that's without us as we keep the goals forever the we by the goal because of the meaning of it. and then a new word, which is the one we are approaching that shouldn't be in your meanings. could it be times that you'll get to to joe to roger at key redesign? vw use best selling model? doesn't vw need a little revolution? every 50 is likely the italian no. any works but chinese comp make has and it has 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 to the installer. bristol, i'm, they go, 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 their vision is what led georgette to job to, to create, to milestones in automotive design. the deal is i have lived and built a career out of my absolute freedom because when i made my 1st cars, i had incredible freedom to do the best time during the day. dw golf, a symbol of freedom and creativity in college design. because everyone which people and young all over the world have embrace on the call that just become the flagship of the gym and automotive industry. it's tough,

it's low risk. as opinions a split on what lies the head for the more automotive tales next time on ran the
