sterns. their mothers were germans living in the occupied drying land their father's soldiers from the french colonies. they up in a climate of national pride and racism. this documentary examines the few traces that remain of their existence. the true. starch genuine love of. w. . today i get to check out a car that has been eagerly awaited by a lot of people this year the all new idea for. we are living during the most extraordinary time there st. francis ford

coppola for the electric cut. out of the. rev the auto and mobility show. it wants to conquer the world. she wants to preserve the tried and true little of what used to rumble notable before. the 1st all electric s.u.v. from v.w. we tested the id for before its rollout. i mean you can. make arrests here and then. enjoy a relaxing drive and heartbreaker. which is the best for delivering your presence christmas song wheels tradition and program right now on rec.

i. today i get to check out. this year the new. fully electric. moving from. only a few weeks after the launch of the 3. set to roll. only. 3 in europe. is set to be available. only be built in germany but also. china and north america.

and even before the made in deliveries of the 1st edition of the opportunity to test drive this. so. it's. always. seems to me. you don't have that much sounds coming into. considering. it is. when you look at it from the outside and. always better insulation. as it did with the new models little sibling the id 3. initially. as a 1st edition. electric motor in the rear

on the launches 77. 3 models with power. 2021 there will also be a sporty top of the line wheel drive. the electric engine off the i.v. for it's located on the react we have the most powerful one in this car and it will accelerate the car from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour and 8 and a half seconds doesn't sound that quick at 1st glance but if you consider that the car weighs in at 2 point one tons that's quite a nice figure. the top speed however is electronically limited to 160 kilometers an hour. of course this has been done to. better the range. on the in 60.

sometimes sometimes you want to drive faster he said but you have to say if you take a look at the competitors in this field for example the emu row and electric those are limited to 167 kilometers an hour and. will only make it to 150 so i guess in comparison 160 is still ok. but of course you have to say that there are other cars other electric cars that can go faster than that for example the model 3 will give you between 206 and 261 is now a top speed depending on the version you get and. it will go past 200. well. the id for one set you back nearly as much as opposed

competitors fully equipped 1st max is available in germany for a little more than 58000 euros and the basic model id for fuel with less power on the smaller battery will be around $20000.00 euros cheaper. depending on the version comes with matrix headlights for extras like a panoramic sunroof. it also boasts a number of assistant systems like automatic systems control traffic sign recognition and lane and steering systems for the exterior p.w. prioritised good aerodynamics in order to maximize the range. recessed door handles optimized wheel rims and the launch roof edge spoiler keep this as stevie's every system's comparatively low.

range of ideas for either 340 or 522 k. tell me this if you have the bigger battery just like us in this car but. chorus depends on different factors right now we have an outside temperature of one degree celsius which is very cold so we have a system heating us up on the inside we. lost approximately one quarter of a battery charge and right now the cartels we have a range of 231 kilometers to be fair we've driven quite a bit off start and stop in the city which is of course where you lose most of your power because starting from 0 always requires a lot of energy no matter if you're driving. or. combustion engine.

heat pump is available as an option for the. it can regulate the interior temperature using the electrical waste heat that means the car battery is not used for heating cooling thus increasing the range. so how long does it take to charge for. there are 2 different batteries sizes for the i.v. for either 52 or 77 kilowatt hours and we have the big one right here you can charge up to 125 kilowatts that means you can take a coffee break and plug in your car and then you will have around 320 meters more after 30 minutes it's quite ok i guess. moving inside the

cockpit behind the steering wheel is a real capture as is the freestanding infotainment touchscreen up to 12 inches in size which is pretty decent. tyria looks very high quality with hardly any rigid plastic in sight. even though it has pretty. you can already tell from the outside the car is creating big and you feel that in the interior it's very spacious in here. the car has it's as big as a t. spacious as a car that is bigger so for example to a wreck and i have to say you can really feel that in here you feel free and yet. it's pretty nice and really comfortable to drive in.

yeah that's what i call spacious i mean look how much space there is fall my legs for my head very nice let's take a look at the trunk. let's see. it looks pretty good between 543-1575 leaders you can see it's quite a lot of things in there. so the driving interesting of the car it's quite nimble which is somewhat surprising for the weight but not that surprising if you consider that most of the weight or a big part of the way to the battery and the battery is located in the floor so close to the road which makes the center of gravity pretty low so it's no wonder it's rather nimble the acceleration of the car is pretty good no surprise just

as it's usual for that because you always have the maximum torque so overtaking it's no problem with this car. on the heels of the successful launch of the id 3 the launch of id for should also become a real sales hit worldwide on the plus side there's the spacious interior depending on battery size a range suitable for everyday use as well as longer journeys without recharging. but if you have a heavy foot you'll probably be less happy with the battery on the range extending top speed of 160 kilometers an hour. so all in all i have to say i really like the idea for even though i'm not into s.u.v.s usually this one is creating a good i think you have quite a good range of course it is not as much as folks like claims. it's

winter but i guess you can go around 400 of maybe a little more kilometers with all the problems and considering that you can recharge more than 300 kilometers in just 30 minutes that's that's more than ok i think. sangin sound good idea about the about your sham of faith and then say that it made them make sitting on the same. cell will still be in most of their cut issues

electric also means extra marks for no noise during the festive season. or so in the run up to christmas which as you feel will deliver the goods. how about the key x. seat. at 35000 euros the lowest priced option in our test. or maybe the opel grand one x. with 200 horsepower the most powerful. and finally the jeep renegade 4 x. . in terms of price and power the middle option. our 1st test is in the eastern. german village of him a fort which means heaven's gate it's a quiet little place but its residents are believed to include santa claus every

december the local post office receives tens of thousands of letters with wish lists from children the perfect place for our want to be satisfied to get into the seasonal spirit. a spirit not dampened by their 1st impressions the can bring some seasonal glow with its gold paint job it's powered by a $105.00 horsepower 4 cylinder gasoline engine with an electric motor providing a further $61.00 horsepower but the big battery under the trunk means cargo space is limited. money inside it's classic. as usual the korean car maker makes everything intuitive to operate. here for senator to take extra lessons. along. with the opel grand blend x. nobody will need to get out and push back stands for all wheel drive with the electric motor powering the rear axle. and for the

holidays the trunk stores time 390 leaders packs in the most presence of our 3 candidates. the engine generates $500.00 newton metres of torque assisted by the 13 kilowatt hour battery the biggest of the 3. and the interior has been beautifully crafted although with prices starting at $43000.00 euros you'd expect nothing less. to keep renegade for x.e. is our compromise candidate the price tag 41000 euros at the 180 horsepower from the regular engine are boosted by a further 60 courtesy of the electric motor on the rear axle. it's nice enough on the inside. but the quality of materials and ease of operation can't quite match the competition but typically it comes with sophisticated all

wheel drive. now we head off for the next stage of our comparison test. performance on the road. the kia has the least power of the 3 but it's also the most economical. the opel stands out mainly for its impressive performance. while the renegade again treads the middle ground decent power and still sound on fuel consumption. our next destination is a special kind of farm more customers can cut down their own christmas tree which of our vehicles will meet the challenge of getting it home. he. comes from. after using a chainsaw to trim down the trunk it's time to get ready to yell tim burke.

now you have your 7 metre long tree but how do you get it back home. no problem with the keogh the only one of our models with a trailer hitch that's unusual for a plug in hybrid but in december a major plus. the g.m. has a maximum towing weight of 1.3 tons while the others are nonstarters in this contest so the big question now is which s.u.v. delivers the best all round christmas package. so which is the best car for christmas for me it's the jeep it is a chronic character like santa claus so this is from well this is the best car for christmas. what's the best car of christmas for the family i think this is the best christmas for the family wants some space and is

a perfect family. but i'm a sad fact also wants to save money for all the gifts for christmas i thought i'd heard the cheapest garlicky up and because the most efficient car is about so i have a lot of money for the gifts now and the car all sold every tree all before. each one of our trio has its own merry merits to keep your spirits up. you may not be driving anywhere this christmas but where ever you are happy holidays from rest.
