engines is now spreading throughout our society. will experts be able to agree on ethical guidelines or will this technology create deadly new autonomous weapon systems. lips starts aug 14th on t.w. . welcome to drive it the d w motor magazine this time an electric car made to measure we just the micro the no from switzerland. c. on its 1st natural gas powered s.u.v. the a room at t.g.i. and the new range rover evoque.

the early 2000 were not a good time for land rover the future of the british brand was in doubt ford sold the company at a big loss to india's tata group at the new owners had faith in the company's ability to innovate and let its designers develop a completely new car. the result was the range rover evoque which rescued the entire company and kicked up a storm on the s.u.v. market. then we had a car to string young ventures says that was because most s.u.v.s at that time looked more like moving refrigerators evoke came onto the market with a fresh design and a sloping roof line and quickly became land rovers best seller with over 800. 1000

units sold worldwide today it is considered one of the innovators of the s.u.v. coupe class and has been showered with numerous awards now the british are launching the 2nd generation evoke the idea we'll see if it has what it takes to build on the successes of the 1st generation. outside you have to do a double take to tell the old from the new but the familiar proportions deceit the 2nd generation of the evoke has worked really no cards from the 1st and sits on a completely new platform the goal is to keep it simple clear lines and smooth surfaces. and so the extendable door handles are only visible if you need them. so. young says as beautiful as the exterior design of the evoque me being with its

sloping roof line the whole thing has one drawback because of the design there's not really much visibility and the rear window is quite small but landrover thought of that and built a camera into the roof it you can full the rear view mirror to see the rear view image but he says he wouldn't want to use this permanently want driving because it looks slightly unnatural to him you have these images in the mirror all the time but it's especially helpful when maneuvering because the camera image has a significantly wider angle and so you've just seen more than you could with a normal mirror alone is that sort of shown as a. bit of influence always eat well and. i was in year. 32 leader turbo diesel and 2 gasoline engines are available with an output from 112221 kilo. to increase

efficiency all engines except for the entry level diesel have a 48 woold mild hybrid system it stores energy recovered during braking in a battery in the vehicle floor this is then re used to support acceleration. he says although the evoque has a little turbo lag it then gets moving rather quickly and the steering feels pleasantly direct and the chassis also feels will tune both in relaxed cruising and at a slightly faster pace only when hitting fast curbs can it no longer completely hide its 2 ton weight. the evo shows that luxury can be sustainable with its high quality interior besides leather wool is available as is eucalyptus but that interior might not be completely vegan landrover is not currently able to guarantee that no animal

products are used. in the 100 young sums up by saying that in terms of luxury and design nothing quite comes up to the 2nd generation of the evoke among the compact s.u.v.s and so its success story should continue unabated. how much car do you really need and what does real sustainability mean in mobility these were the questions a start up company in switzerland asked. all over with my brother the early. radio project. which is. part of the mobility systems company our father founded in in the

ninety's inventing the 1st exclusive. if you're focusing on a small electric city car kind of a special use kind of people type to feel a motor bike. and it began with a simple question. how much car do you really need for a mobility is what they were driving we kind of like look into this the key is that you should be on average a car is occupied by just 1.2 people and drive the daily distance of 35 kilometers most cars have 5 seats are big or s.u.v.s nowadays and he said like how can it be that actually the use case is completely different to the products that are on the market we also look at the past and we saw that in the system there were these bubble cars which were very popular and the biggest offenders for the eyes that.

they were for people they were more comfortable than a motorbike but the people couldn't get ford a real car so this was their upgrade in terms of you know whether protective mobility was an upgrade to a 2 motorbike and were amazed by those concepts because they were they were so interesting and so i mean so actual and that's kind of like for us when when we said like ok it needs to be small and simple like that all the cars from the fifty's. is what worked 60 years ago perhaps the solution for today small light and this time electric with a range of up to 200 kilometers next year the micro leno is expected to hit the market $15000.00 or already reserved. there was a nice analogy made by an analyst for michael mobility and he said you know we don't need to think about making a better car we need to think about making a worse car and i can. it's like the idea because you really need to strip the car

from all of that stuff that is actually not important that makes it heavy that makes it complicated makes it expensive and really break it down to hey what do people really want from a car length but immobility isn't just about small efficient cars then is hosting formula eve this weekend electric race cars with 250 to one to engines roaring to the finish line at 250 kilometers an hour. and in the middle of it all the micro leno leaving the track just before the race begins. if you say yeah it's an electric car it's sustainable i think is the wrong answer because it really depends on the concept so for example the micro you know with the battery weighs less than just a battery of electric vehicle up from from how the. many visitors to the big car makers boots and ask them what sustainability really to use and even in the

shadow will formulate eat the micro leno is well received. important thing about perma ears that it makes electric mobility emotional in a way so it kind of gives it it takes the mobility out of this corner where people just say oh you just do it because it's eco friendly you know they show that it can also be fun and it can also be really exciting and this is kind of the purpose the purpose of the event and that's why we also like being here. formulate you maybe a look refining the crowds what is important in everyday life. you really want to be eco friendly you need to think from a point of hey how much car do i really need what type of vehicle do i really need do i really need a car. electric vehicles that can turn on for years and it wasn't that cool you know when tesla stars. they kind of like became more and more.

let's say poor as well so that you you drive around with an electric vehicle and you you feel good about it that's what changed this. and that's what the 2 swiss brothers are counting on. following the success of its i 30 and i decided to release a 2nd compact sports car we take a closer look at this new hatchback version of the i 30 fast track and. as it's based on the successful i 30 m. version the i 30 fastback and is powered by the same 202 kilowatt 2 leader 4 cylinder engine on top of that the n.c. reis comes with a lot of high tech goodies to give a hint don't motor sports excitement even on ordinary trips here night by the

contest or lewis combo says you'll die is usually known for its dependable cars with low fuel consumption but with the i 30 m. a they opened up a whole new chapter and the i 31st back and aims to take things even further. louis's going to find out how funny it used to drive as well as how practical it is in everyday situations. technical extras will be in the series include a sports suspension with undoubtable shock absorbers as well as the end corner targeting differential aimed at increasing traction and preventing understeer. louis's that behind the wheel you were immediately noticed the sporty origins of the i 30 fastback in the sound from the exhaust is really impressive and ought to

thrill any sports car fado but it can also drive quietly to thanks to the variable throttle system built into the sports exhaust says you simply need to touch a button on the menu screen to make the exhaust a lot quieter. seen from the front of the new end model looks nearly it dentical to its namesake the fast back end is a quick through the cascade shape grille and the end logo reminiscent of a twisty race course both typical june di features. but from the side the differences become more apparent the hatchbacks roofline starts slowly descending from the b. pillar on words ending with an integrated spoiler at the rear. of the car tester lewis immediately notices that you need to pay like for me but he wonders about what it means for space on the back seat and whether it would be possible to fit for a 5 people into the car. lewis

says there's enough room in the back for people as tall as he is around 175 centimeters he could even imagine sitting here for a longer journey given that there's enough like our own and head. he says the trunk is a roomy 450 liter as easily allowing for people to travel together with their luggage . the fastback can fit about 50 meters more than the hatchback version of the seats are foldable in both versions with the same wheel base the fast back is 12 centimeters longer which makes it appear more elegant. there are clear interior differences to the original i have 30 the fastback has a sports like steering wheel with the end the logo and contrast thing seems which are also found on the seats and fear not the 8 inch touch screen with audio system

are standard while the steering wheel offers a choice between different driving. there are hardly any differences when it comes to performance specs both end models use the same $202.00 kilowatt to leader 4 cylinder gasoline engine. compared to the strongest gasoline engine on the regular i 30 fastback model the m. has close to double the power and accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour 3 seconds faster.

it's not. just the performance then justifies the additional $10000.00 euro's in price in germany. and the us is impressed by the diverse range of settings the adaptable shock absorbers for instance can be adjusted to the road conditions there by changing the driving dynamics and stability this can be done with just wouldn't push of the button. a rover matching function adds to the sporty feel. the i 30 fastback and is a very emotional car just like it stablemate it provides a good balance between everyday use and driving pleasure and price the just over 30000 euros it's even relatively affordable. to you if the total darkness car tester emmanuel schaefer says that's what the

night would look like if everyone suddenly switched to electric vehicles all those miracles charging would cause the power grid to collapse and we would sit in the dark but what alternatives will there be to keep things moving quote and also environmentally friendly that's what he's going to look at today. one of these alternatives is this car it looks completely normal. but it's a very special model the world's 1st natural gas powered s.u.v. the c.i. t.g.i. . the identity of the manual says there are currently 2 types of gas available l.p.g. and c n g c and again. gas powered vehicles are already available in various sizes and classes from different manufacturers but they haven't really made it onto the mass market even though they have some clear benefits.

and. i know. he says in principle both l.p.g. and c n g burn much cleaner than gasoline or diesel l.p.g. stands for liquefied petroleum gas it's a byproduct of gasoline refining c.m.g. stands for compressed natural gas and as the name suggests it's natural it comes from the earth and the of the unknowns i fear compressed natural gas. it's a myth that could have come to us they don't vote up the bomb. another benefit of c.n. cheney is its special properties. vehicle girded maria says gas has a very high energy content c. and g. is a premium fuel with $130.00 octane so much power in the fuel means low consumption all the emissions and low costs and the energy efficiency is also very high even

significantly above diesel at the $850.00 fuel stations that offer this alternative fuel in germany it's much cheaper than gasoline or diesel. he shows how the refueling process is only slightly different compared to conventional engine you open the flat here and on hook the nozzle. put it in the hold and once you've locked it into place with a handle here then you start the refueling process here in my pressing about. the arrows natural gas tank holds just under 14 kilograms enough to travel around 350 kilometers. but the c. and g. doesn't always have to be pumped out of the ground it can also be produced from all the raw materials in plants like this one run by audi in northern germany it's an eco friendly option you know what time is the moment she says renewable natural gas is currently gaining ground in german it and that means virtually climate immune

from mobility with a 90 percent reduction of c o 2 emissions right now a straw. all is the main roll material. but we can ferment nearly everything organic in the bio gas plant and bring it to the fuel station via the pipeline network. and those pipelines mean the fuel does not have to be transported by road anymore unlike gasoline or diesel. he says the nice thing about switching from a conventional car to a natural gas car is that you don't even notice by that so if you sit and hit you still have the same feeling when driving the same noise because there's still an internal combustion engine under the hood if you only see the difference if you look at the dash you have 2 separate displays for the c.n. g tank and a reserve tank on the other one in has ever been seen to have. been close and emanuel says he thinks c. and g.

vehicles are currently the best story turn of if for individual mobility sure there are electric cars but as he said if everyone switched to them right away it would overload the power grid and worst of all charging them still takes a lot of time and that's not the case with c.b. n.-g. . the starting price for a seattle rhona t.g.i. is just under $20000.00 euros in germany. the trentino region of northern italy and its capital trento a spectacular backdrop for a true legend of motor sports history the majestic bentley 4 and a half meter so i bet it's a stock to start out 1st you have to press enter to about the best to bring the ignition magneto's into the right position of being done then you turn on the gasoline pump and use the levers to adjust the hand throttle and free ignition. the tension mounts says christophe gets ready to roll took one hit him stock up. with

both you. settings oh dear but christophe gives it another go. back in the roaring twenty's almost a century ago this nimble 2 ton giant was a favorite toy among playboy powered by a monster engine it makes every 2nd down the road an adventure and every curve a hair racer. there's no replacement for displacement i stick with it indeed the words of none of them gold turner only eventually known as w o the engineer and founder of the car company had little time for factors such as vehicle weight air resistance or comfortable handling if a car was too slow the answer was a bigger engine and in the case of bentley those power plants went up to 8 leaders

. that's good although it's all possibly that. the unit inside the bentley 4 and a half meter packs just the 4 cylinders but a capacity of 4.4 leaders it's 110 horsepower to take the mean machine to a top speed of 150 kilometers per hour by $927.00 standards and out of this world figure. all of those bottom guts of motor sports and luxury were perfectly compatible for bentley explains christophe that meant the battleships made in cricklewood near london had to deliver on the race track too in the mid 920 s. bentleys 3 leader moto had won the 24 hour of lamont twice but was no longer cutting it the more modern but awfully heavy 6.5 liter model went through the tires quicker than you could change the big lease aleutian cutting 2 cylinders out of the

6.5 liter and a legend was born on the bentley floor in the. leader. of . the bentley 4 and a half leader was made for lamont the no nonsense beefcake gritted its way around lap after lap wolf bar nasir and bernard being the took turns of the wheel to move the famous clump of wealthy motorists known as the bentley boys. after 24 hours and almost 2700 kilometers at full throttle the bentley crossed the line 1st despite suffering a broken chassis a triumph for the christie just british brand. and original bentley 4 and a half meter will easily set you back a 1000000 euros plus today it comes with a fully adjustable friction dampers headlights with stone guards and tiny windshields. the drum brakes on all 4 wheels

are not that effective while the small leather clad seats offer little in the way of lateral support. the cord wrapped steering wheel would look at home on an ocean like a bridge and it takes so muscle to operate. not. while they cast iron engine alone weighs about as much as a modern small car mr bentley started out as a locomotive designer of course 4 cylinders a 4.4 liter displacement $110.00 horsepower it all looks a bit old fashioned now but this car was ahead of its time christopher coles the 60 involved label turning up in the 1980 s. here 4 cylinders with 4 valves each equals 16 dollars 60 years before the likes of the gong. this bentley has 4 extra ignition plugs on board it wasn't until the 1930 s.

that high performance cars no longer needed pre edition plus the bentley. 4 and a half meters same gin generates up to 4 phones in your piano but even as minimal revs this awesome beast of yesteryear pumps own a monumental torque. pre-war bentley looks like a relic from a bygone era when brute force ruling a dinosaur in the evolution of sports cars but nonetheless this british bulldog had some pretty sophisticated engineering the potentially 4 and a half leader is indisputable play on milestone in automotive history and the data coming that they do saga that benefit hope and faith is my it's time now that will be interesting to. unfortunately the bentley 4 and a half later has always been and want to rear sight production between 9 127941 totaled 50 blower models and just 668 wriggler editions of this iconic beast. next time on drug good
