today a new focus. 13. i'm not laughing at the germans because sometimes i am but they stand up and with the. things deep into german culture. you will take this grandmother to you it's all that. time right so join me for me think i'm going to tell. you how. do you fish god you're very. good at the front what. we are living during the most extraordinary. history. of support
4:31 am
for the electric. car the bad. breath the auto and mobility show. mobility is all about diversity finding the best means of transport for everyone. whether for children and their parents. for car lovers and fans of the gas pedal. or for musicians longing for freedom and adventure. get the feeling they're going to feel like i'm in love for. you to. join breath in search of new forms of mobility. right now.
4:32 am
i really i have a bit of a feeling that akon is becoming europe's silicon valley. we have the skills and ability to really save the world. for sure and the nice thing about working at our community versity is that we can be visionaries we have to miss an. athlon technical university or are w t h scientists are working flat out on a new kind of environmentally friendly mobility. leading the charge is going to shoot a man with big ideas. i would like to save the world my whole team would like to save the world we're already doing it by talking about climate change in the environment not by fans will save the world through innovation.
4:33 am
going to shoot began his journey in 2010 he started with street scooters then kidded out the german postal service with electric delivery trucks but the automobile industry took little notice of him. its next dream was an electric car that everyone can afford but the big car makers still weren't interested so in 2017 she founded the company eco and built his own factory overnight the scientist became a car maker. into new engine years don't have the privilege of conducting research only with the aim of gaining new insights unlike other disciplines we're obliged to carry out research according to its relevance we take it very seriously here it often university so whatever we dedicate our resources to researching it has to be of use to society. and you also have to be strong enough to fight for. things you
4:34 am
think will be good for society even if the establishment doesn't want them. going to schoo and ego revolutionize the german automobile market now finally the big car makers have taken notice and responded by bringing out their own budget vehicles. from established companies can't be as innovative as they would actually like to be rushed and they can't take as many risks. they can't design a completely different chassis or use a new space frame concept with a plastic panel with the ball but they actually need pocket rockets like this. which are really agile and push the boundaries. so i see myself as a trailblazer for the established companies. a trailblazer success is inspiring his colleagues at aston university to realize their own ambitions for them he's a pioneer that opens doors for others to go through. they would always say you
4:35 am
researchers are academics you will sit in ivory towers he broke the stereotype he showed that universities can also bring new products to market successfully bring new products to market and we profit from that of course. for years ago it's showing the way for all of the issues surrounding mobility. we are very happy that he is here in arkansas and that he is helping even if just subconsciously take us all to another level in my opinion without going to shoe and ego we would not have secured the funding for this project any photo over. to be as minor has an innovative project with its roots in outer space in order to connect the cabin of an electric bass to an overhead cable a highly complex clamping device was developed from satellite technology by passing traffic jams from above that's the vision under the direction of professor. they have come up with a new. concept that has really taken off. it gets over it as he thought well i am
4:36 am
now of the opinion that we have found the key to what mobility might look like in the future. because we have solved so many problems by lifting transport above the ground and we freed up the space below and can return of the game to the people who used. to be as minor as can come on the help and expertise of the neighboring faculty often university's institute for flight system dynamics. system this is our new flyer we call the big bird it's very big and from an aerodynamic point of view very exciting. isn't it opens up almost abilities that we never dreamed of just go upstairs and you can find whatever kind of expert you need . the sky is the limit determined one man and his team are looking into the future of drones from delivering parcels and medicine to remote regions of the world to gathering and delivering important data on injured people every day they are
4:37 am
discovering new uses for their unmanned drones. to lead us is trying to find the right solutions for the future of their visions and the nice thing about working at university is that we can be visionaries we have to be it's part of our job. to build a vision you need to dream team and that's why to be as mine it also calls on going to shoes company ego it's hoped the people mover will be at the center of my notes cable bus project the small electric buses the latest innovation from going to shoe manufactured right here and often sharing expertise and pooling resources is proving a recipe for success when you're researching it is important to know how much time i need to clarify whether this technology for this application for these costs is in this combination works here we can do it like this i really just before you all i have a bit of a feeling without being arrogant that akon is becoming europe silicon valley and
4:38 am
obviously we want to help contribute to walk in showing the way for your. role models or steve jobs in iran musk musk. if you are in the order of strong today we are proud to say that apart from tesla we are the only ones in the western hemisphere out of all those startups who have actually produced a roadworthy car for a group of your mom and now they're shifting up a gear the people mover has made the cut and is slated to become the star of the cable bus project and it will be driverless for that reason to b.s. mind it is meeting with his colleagues from the institute for automotive engineering at awesome university they're at the forefront of research into autonomy driving. the researchers are testing the concept in one of the most modern simulators in the world. here they're looking into how the movements of a driverless bus impact the senses of its passengers.
4:39 am
this prototype called speedy has already passed through the simulation process kitted out with the latest technology it aims to provide a driving experience for the future. it's just not the. culture. it's about improving mobility not restricting it and making it environmentally friendly my job is not only to make that happen but to try it out and to test it with my young team so that they are excited about this journey and then want to pursue with their whole lives. i want you know how many people i've helped pass through here over 350 students have completed their doctorate with me to now carry this d.n.a. around with them for your view how they say we have the skills and ability to
4:40 am
really save the world it won't be saved by banning things but through innovation. athan technical university pushing the boundaries of both minds and machines. what is truth what is fiction who can you believe a rich car tester maybe we live in a world where reality and fantasy forest close together as never before i'm going to show you some of the incredible features of the car but please bear in mind not everything you're going to see it's real it's for you to judge what is fact and watch it's fiction my name is not on the brakes but what you're about to see years beyond belief.
4:41 am
2 and a half liter engine delivers 294 kilowatts 400 horsepower and even more torque 418 you can meters that's impressive. if it was snow free the r. is q 3 could make the dash from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 4.5 seconds another thing you probably didn't know about the audi horace q 3 is it has the ability to change its color depending on the weather and the temperature outside the color changes gets lighter it gets darker i think that's a really cool feature. one thing you probably didn't know about me is i can steer the car without using my hands i am somewhat of a psychic and i use my mind to choose where the car should go.
4:42 am
this is cool isn't there. another thing you can do is buy the top. it gets really really silent while driving almost like an electric current you won't notice when it's approaching. responsible for getting the power onto the road it's a 7 speed dual clubs' transmission you don't even notice it's shifting. the thing that really surprised me when i learned about the hardy is that it is somewhat of a shape shifter by the press of the mode but it changes its real so it gets more aerodynamic and then you can put the pedal to the metal really
4:43 am
cool thanks. that's all time is quickly running out let me sum up which of the facts you heard today were real and which were made up by me the 1st claim i made was about the 400 horsepower 480 new meters of this car you probably think that's way too much but no this is what the car has on the hood. that the audi can go super silent let me tell you he can't especially not with the option the exhaust system what about the color changing ability of the audi depending on the weather. you think this is not true then you're right the audi cad but let me tell you such pains exist but you just don't get them at all these another claim i made was i am able to drive the car with just my thoughts of course i can and the audi on the other hand he can drive
4:44 am
alone as long as the driver still there and alert when i was talking to you about 7 speech to a clutch transmission you probably thought he speaks. generating but i was not this is exactly what you can find on the road last but not least i told you that the r.s. q 3 could change its shape by the press of a button of course accounts but that's only half the truth because this car is available either as our rescue 3 in regular or as we drove it in a sports breaker version. now we've cleared all that up we can check out the pros and cons of the ares q 3 while a manual goes for a spin around a frozen lake and enjoys it stripping capability it's any case anyone is not put off by the cars rather poor eco performance prices for the audi r s q 3 started around $63500.00 euros that's a fact. schools
4:45 am
out in berlin the kids can't wait to try out their new wheels. this is what's the new potentilla one including one path to disclose to nicholas if and how * the family gave him funding call for calm family. a couple of years ago the school run here was dominated by cane who's grilling those sure rons alhambra into iraq. now parents are trading in the family chariots in favor of trendy family friendly s.u.v.s these meet real people movers are redefining the market as we sit on the cusp of the post gasoline e. one seen as a nice excess are in for off road posers for sports utility vehicles now dominating the day to day. but the s.u.v. is also moving with the times some are going electric and 4 wheel drive is increasingly only an optional extra and it's getting smaller too so small that even
4:46 am
cars like the polo or twingo are feeling the pinch our 5 models are top sellers in germany are on the small side as far as s.u.v.s go but that doesn't mean that space is limited take the volvo x e 40 for. example the swedes are proud of this car and want to fly the flag like all volvo's the styling is restrained maybe even subdued but it's proving popular. the interior is simple and up to date thick carpets lined the door wells and panels feature a map of gotham berg the home of. volvo's have always played up their compact size at least in american terms as the set from the 1970 s. shows. which we do based to gary they cared for our groceries but that doesn't mean we have to lug around a lot of time and enough space in a volvo wagon to fill for a fridge raters for groceries yet the home away again is easy to park in maneuvers or bravo sedan because the fact we were saying that i.
4:47 am
know we're going to get mobilized if we can't even get out of the parking. the volvo has been around the block a few times like the fia $506.00 it's a throwback to the good old days. have brought the famous chink which into from the 1960 s. bang up to date. so be a but you're not it is not us together. but if you get out if i cheated them a lot going to. look at book is it going to do a body out of the us for me to whip. out the spots a bit but. not a feat. it could be not that it's here on. the field 500 shares many components with the jeep renegade the platform and the engines are the same they're
4:48 am
even made on the same production line in south italy. but the g. feels like it's own car. styling is one of a kind. and 4 wheel drive is an optional extra. say grand next you immediately think of off road adventures but keep on dreaming. the car is derived from the merida meaning it's an s.u.v. the soul of a minivan it's one of the 1st models to appear from under the new owners p.s.a. . have a cargo hole in tradition dating back to the 1950 s. in germany back then their movie was called the caravan and was intended purely for commercial use no one imagined using it privately. kona will do anything to stand out from the crowd the headlights flank the front
4:49 am
grill tough plastics inspire the driver to explore the great outdoors. so this model also comes with 4 wheel drive. on the inside. with easy to use controls. this u.v.'s have a high loading a downside of all cars in this segment to get a season view we spoke to helmet law company classical music site their boat. a massive collection of vintage and classic cars hellmuth is skeptical of all the buzz around s.u.v.s but he says it's surprisingly good for his business new record most closely. as a deal is in classic cars well you're getting a lot of people coming to us who use case you things every day cars but then they say oh i like the look of these who pays all cab relays so for today everyone talks about these a different design concept so hard to get with this is an s.u.v. be on that is a station wagon and right is
4:50 am
a prototype but inside these statements stand out designs are really lacking for me . let's check back in with the kids mom man didn't normally drive the little ones around in a full invent but today she's trying out the volvo x c 4 how does it compare. also it's. one of the. scripts i understand that goes up against my conscience so i understand this again you're using. this to the. point. well as s u v really stands for sport utility vehicle we also want to see how sporty our 5 test cars all the time to put them through their paces on the slalom course. with
4:51 am
all of their on board driving age they're a safe is fort knox. their stability control systems intervene if things get out of hand. the volvo is a bit of a scare you can get just a little bit out of shape and the seat belt poles tight. as you views are known for their engaging driving. experience if you're looking for real drivers car it would have to be the human di with its low center of gravity and punch $130.00 kilowatt gasoline engine it's the most fun here. squeeze 80 kilowatt out of their one leader engines a lively 3 cylinder unit likes to be read. time for the verdict while the renegade seems a bit of a beast with its high seating position and bulging hood the fee up $500.00 x. makes better use of its space. it's not any smaller than the jeep but it doesn't
4:52 am
feel such a handful. the all around abilities of the opal grand lennox really come to the forefront it's to leader diesel engine puts out $130.00 kilowatts that combined with its 8 speed automatic gearbox mean there's always power when you need it. the chassis also doesn't disappoint it's the perfect all rounder. it all comes down to what floats your boat there's something for everyone in the s.u.v. segment from the volvo x c 40 which in top trim is pushing nearly 60000 euros to the 500 x. which can be yours for merely $20000.00. for the little boy there can only be one winner.
4:53 am
for a fever. when you need a holiday but still have work to do just do it the boxes are way fall. just for this. and we want to go on holiday for the record label said no you need to get through your video clip 1st but just went to us out of there with the money of the label with the money. over to somebody else pays them old. not just any old timer like lou. raises the temperature in that video. and that's why we got an old timer to take them. on a road trip. we didn't find if. we got a special from 966 once license in front. of
4:54 am
a state automatic car power steering and 6 cylinder engine. tells me they wanted an old car with character their video. was the only old time on monsoreau however driving around wasn't as comfortable as driving. we almost had accidents and a few for you but the ct you know the old one cuz the steering wheel it only responded like sometimes so sometimes you would just go off the road and you couldn't do anything about it so what happened i drove really slowly we just got lucky but that one had an airbag actually it was like the stomach of a car oh. why didn't you put that in your video anyway delete saying. to me to describe the feeling you get when you've got too
4:55 am
much going on and just want to escape the voice don't agree with me. good if you are going to be positive or negative you know like. if you try financing it's actually about a girl i don't really like it because it's like but then sometimes i do like her you know i tend to fall for her and it's like that contradiction just. another contradiction is too dry. no time out what i'll just raise awareness on climate change yeah after this interview it's on me to. when i pick you up with this car you asked me if i cared about climate hell while you do you care about climate actually with it one eco trip we call it and it was to berlin in the summer to play a festival but we took a train but i missed the train so i took to. the. touring often feels like a road trip the band tells me that it can get quite boring just like in long soroti
4:56 am
where they shot one scene over and over again during the afternoon they always asked us like you guys should talk but we were like we've been in the studio for a couple of months so we didn't have anything to talk about and so we talked about napkins all of the time. so when we recreated the scene in valinor into actually told me he prefers compliment gets. well keep on moving and see you next week on rab.
4:57 am
4:58 am
a new focus and some of this looks good change. coming up on the roof. on the road with our superheroes my mission is clear blue kushti good and to me cause clearly explored in germany. they died then and they tricked everything out there's a lot going on in. germany tried and tested changes. in 30 minutes on t.w. . board.
4:59 am
each star tells my story. on the people around me builds me dead you can see it again. to me. i am not a dumb to continue. to. listen closely and i will tell you about the room days who blew to me up. until very recently down. i am not too dumb to 15. months in my city the days for centuries until the company
5:00 am
my country through its finest hours. until the day i merely vanished. i still not done to. april and d. w. . this is due to all the good news and these are out top stories easily has ordered all non-essential companies and businesses to close nationwide his columns after the contrary reported daily i had 100 new deaths in a single die from the corona virus nearly 5000 people have died in new zealand now the world.
