quiet melody reseller's by the light of the moon ready. and in silvery. resonate within its soul. the mind and the music. told infest 12019 from september 6th to september 29th. welcome to drive into the d w motor magazine this time and electric car made to measure we just the micro the no from switzerland. c yachts 1st natural gas powered s.u.v. a room at t.g.i.

and the new range rover evoque. the early 2000 as were not a good time for a 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 car tester young better says that it was because most s.u.v.s at that time looked me. more like moving refrigerators up the vote came onto the market with

a fresh design and a sloping roof line it quickly became the land rovers best seller with over 800000 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 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 do see the 2nd generation of the a vote has worked really no parts 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.

yawn says as beautiful as the exterior design of the evoque may be and 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 fold the rearview mirror to see the rear view image but he says he wouldn't want to use this permanently won't bing 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 they camera image has a significantly wider angle and so you just see more than you could with a normal mirror alone. that doesn't even have an. influence always eat my life and it's worth more than a. 32 leaders are bold diesel and

2 gasoline engines are available with an output from 112221 kilowatt to increase efficiency all engines except for the entry level diesel have a 48 volt 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 this during feels pleasantly direct and the chassis also feels will tune both in relaxed cruising and at a slightly faster pace only when hitting fast curtis can it no longer completely hide its 2 tongue weight. the evoque 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 let's get it with my brother merlin. plain old project. which is part of my committee systems company our father founded in the ninety's i invented the 1st pick scooter. you're focusing on a small electric city car kind of a special use kind of vehicle type of thing a motor bike. and it began with the simple question. how much car do you really need for baby mobility for baby driving we kind of like look into this the phoenix and you should be on average car itself by just 1.2 people and drives their daily difference of 35 kilometers most cars have 5 seats big are s.u.v.s nowadays and he said i 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 yes there were these bubble cars which was very popular and the biggest offenders from the i that's out. there were for people and they were more comfortable than a motorbike but the people couldn't get a ford a real car so this was their upgrade in terms of you know where the 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 we said like ok it needs to be small and simple like that all 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 much will we know is expected to hit the market 15000 are already reserved.

it was a nice analogy made it had a lease for michael ability 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 kind of 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. but immobility isn't just about small efficient cars ben is hosting formula eve this weekend electric race cars with 250 to one of the engines roaring to the finish line at 250 kilometers an hour. and in the middle of it all the micro leno leaving the tracks 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 the battery electric vehicle of from

how the. many visitors to the big car makers boots ask them what sustainability really it is and even in the shadow world formulate eat the micro be no use well received. good morning thing about their early years that it makes electric mobility emotional in a way so it's kind of gives it it takes inability 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 e.u. maybe electrifying the crowds good what is important in everyday life. if 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. i really

need to i really need a car. electric because a turnaround for years and it wasn't that cool you know when tesla started to kind of like became more and more. basic rules as well so that you know you drive around with an electric vehicle and you you feel good about it that's what changed this year. and that's what the 2 swiss brothers are counting. funnelling the success of its 30 and she 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 31st back and is powered by the same 202 kilowatt 2 leader 4 cylinder

engine on top of that the n.c.a. reis comes with a lot of high tech goodies to give it him to motor sports excitement even on ordinary trips here night by the car to st louis couple says you'll die is usually known for its dependable cars with low fuel consumption but with the i 30 and they opened up a whole new chapter and the i 31st back and aims to take things even further. louis is going to find out how funny it used to drive as well as how practical it is in everyday situations. technical extras for the end series include a sports suspension with adoptable shock absorbers as well as the end corner carving 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 and the sound from the exhaust is really impressive and ought to thrill any sports are fragile 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 a denser cold to its namesake fastback and is equipped with a cascade strip grill and the end will grow reminiscent of a twisty race course both typical june di features. but from the side the differences become more apparent the hatchbacks roof line starts slowly descending from the the 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 $4.00 or 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 luck . the fastback can fit about 50 liters 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 you're not the 8 inch touch screen with the audio system are standard while the steering wheel offers a choice between different driving modes. 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 n.

has close to double the power exhilarates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour 3 seconds faster. it's not. just the performance than justifies the additional $10000.00 euro's in price in germany. and was impressed by the diverse range of settings the adaptable shock absorbers for instance can be adjusted to the road condition thereby 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 euro's it's even relatively affordable.

to 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 on 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 emanuel 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.c. 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 think your compressed natural gas. as it's name is that you and it has come to us they don't vote up the ball. another benefit of c.m. cheney is its special properties. maria berger says gas has a very high energy content engine 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 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 flap 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 aruba's natural gas tank holds just under 14 kilograms enough to travel around 350 kilometers. but c n g's doesn't always have to be pumped out of the ground it can also be produced from other role 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 germany and that means virtually climate and you. are the 90 percent reduction of c o 2 emissions right now a straw. law 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 the sharing of 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 you only see the difference if you look at the dash you have to separate displays for the c. n.-g. tank and a reserve tank on the lot of them and then has ever been seen time. and

close and emanuel says he thinks c. and g. vehicles are currently the best alternative for individual mobility to be 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 cd 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 trying to 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 in just to about the best to bring the edition magneto's into the right position to being done then you turn on the

gasoline pump and use the levers to adjust the hand throttle and free ignition ports and want. the tension mounts says christophe gets ready to roll took when he didn't 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 and adventure and every curve a hair racer. there's no replacement for displacement i submit that indeed the words of none other than gold turner only been flagged known as w o 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 bigger engine and in the case of bentley those power plants went up to 8 leaders and once it does get all of that business will cost. the unit inside the bentley 4 and a half meter packed just the 4 cylinders but a capacity of 4.4 leaders its 110 horsepower to take the main machine to a top speed of 150 kilometers per hour by $927.00 standards and out of this world figure. all of those bought a 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. in the mid 1920 s. bentleys 3 leader model had won the 24 hour of lamont twice but it was no longer

cutting it the more modern but awfully heavy 6.5 liter model went through tires quicker than you could change the basically solution cutting 2 cylinders out of the 6.5 liter and the legend was born on the bentley 4 and. the bentley 4 and a half leader was made for limone the no nonsense beefcake grid its way around lap after lap wolf bar not so and bernard beam took turns at 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 prestigious 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 liner bridge and it takes so muscle to operate. it 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 of 4.4 liters displacement $110.00 horsepower i don't 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 free edition plugs the bentley. 4 and a half leaders same gin generates up to 4000 r.p.m. but even as minimal revs this awesome beast of yesteryear pumps own a monumental torque. my little head up 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 bentley 4 and a half leader is indisputable play on milestone in automotive history and the data come on that they do sound that bad if the muslim faith is. album of the initiative . unfortunately the bentley 4 and a half later has always been and all too rare sight production between one
