to you. what secrets why behind the wall. discover new adventures in 360 degree. and explore fascinating world heritage sites. t.w. world heritage 360 getting up now. it's once again time to take a look at a fully electric car the pollstar to see. we are living during the most extraordinary time in history. transportable before the electric. light and that breath the auto and mobility show.
11:31 am
all start to. what do you get when chinese electrical know how sweet ish automotive tradition. paid off because. it's a little bit like like like a roller coaster. what should electric car sound like. and he asked questions that's fair thanks to. why our electric unicycle and alternative to cars the advantage of everybody drive this this is very small and the cars are so big for the street it's a mass. and how do you make a tesla dance. time or read right now.
11:32 am
the pole star 2 could this be one of the most complete electric cars on the market right now. it's once again time to take a look at a fully electric car. to. pretty excited the car looks good and has some really nice specs on paper and i'm wondering how these will turn out on the road. so the 1st thing you notice when you. start stop confusing but the got you covered break and then put your car in reverse or either indeed. the car then powers up and you can start. to feature a. battery 2 electric motor. $400.00 horsepower one of the front one at the rear.
11:33 am
goes from 0 to 100. 40 very nice of course drive and. then there's the ring the pollstar 2 schools that. range of $407.00 the. procedure. for any car of their range will be. approximate the 370.
11:34 am
1 of the best parts about to is. faster than most other electric cars are there if you look at the competitors 16150 or 167 where they stop accelerating and the 2 can go to 205 kilometers an hour which is pretty decent . pollstar is a joint venture between volvo a chinese firm who took over the swedish car company in 2010. the production facilities are in china with a lot of all those technical experience showing through in the design. so looking at the can the pole start to is simply elegant much more so than a tesla model 3 for example. an optional performance package will add remove brakes 20 in shallow wheels and a high gloss black roof and gold colored accents to the come. the pollstar has a surprisingly large tailgate which makes it easier to transport large objects. the
11:35 am
kind of makes up for the relatively small trunk space of 405 to 1095 liters. the car can charge up to $150.00 kilowatts that way feeling the battery from zeros and 80 percent takes around 40 minutes. on the inside the pole star is quite roomy up front and in the back. so what i really like in the interior is this big display in the middle reminds of a template and the reason for that is it is one of the 1st cars to feature an infotainment system that has a google based operating system so 'd you will use a just like you use your phone or tablet hole so you can use google maps for navigating let's say i'd want to go to frankfurt it would tell me the distance for 176 kilometers also tell me how much better. recharge i will have when i arrive
11:36 am
there you can see it. so i will not make it to frankfurt but it gives me the option to add a charging spot and then it will show me different charging possibilities along side the route it will also tell me what kind of charger there is so fast charger medium charger and what's even better it will tell me if those are free you have a play store where you can install quite a few apps most of them are for listening purposes you tube music spotify and so on anything you want for entertainment in your car furthermore you have a 60 degree camera which is pretty important because if you look out real window it's very small so you definitely need that. you have of course a lot of options that you can change for your car one pedal drive so if you take your foot off the accelerator how much recuperation will there be standard low off
11:37 am
usually they don't stand out because recuperating is always good and you can also choose if you want your car to creep so if you take your foot off then should they stop completely or should it go at slow speed just like you know it from your regular combustion engine which is high quality materials and excellent finishing you can tell the full sized games that the previous segment. is only the real window so plucky. driving the 2 feels pretty good even though it's a rather heavy car it feels quite nimble of course battery at the bottom just like any other electric car though center of gravity p. it's pretty good then of course exhilaration foreign aid horsepower. beats a little bit like like like a roller coaster not as crazy. but pretty good anyway so what i really like that you can change. right here.
11:38 am
breaking anymore. breaking and you need to keep that in mind but once you get used to that it's pretty nice to move. the car i really enjoy driving very much the only things i didn't like 3 or. the key. so if you look at it from the outside. here if you have grabbed it from a $1.00 store. i don't know. i don't. like.
11:39 am
the steering wheel. and a lot of. the same problem the middle part of the steering wheel simply doesn't look good but i. really really nice car. on the side that is a very good looking. at the front. payment system is easy to use and there are lots of options. on the downside there are some questionable design decisions. and a real window that is way too small to return to a question yet. is one of the most complete t.v. feel. electric cars that make engine sounds when you step on the gas. electric. vehicles are required by e.u.
11:40 am
regulations to produce a sound the industry is working feverishly to make that happen b.m.w. has even hired the italian musician brains of eternity to develop the right kind of sound. this additional i enjoy the silence it's great but what happens if for example i want to experience the emotions of driving when i suddenly accelerated. every time they compose a different sound collage for each model. he works on it just like with a piece of music for a concert hall. and sometimes what i do is just endlessly improvise because when you improvise and you know this as
11:41 am
a musician you don't have time to think. you just have time to feel a sense of. magic that's where the magic often happens to us off so i consciously decided to bring that into the automobile industry as well because i thought there must be another way of giving sound to these machines to keep to. each color has its own resonance and that inspires the unique sound of friends of the town is compositions. i close my eyes and open up and i ask myself what would you sound like if you talked to me yes what would your voice be like. composing the sound for this electric president was a unique experience he spent 5 days and nights at the hollywood studio of oscar winning german film school composer hans zimmer who knows how important proper acoustic sound. sound to 5 person launching
11:42 am
it adds a brochure that store caracter. the sound of the lights the soul of anything right now we have a really exciting part of shaping the sound of the future. and this is how the b.m.w. vision in next sounds. tax. credits are they all city lights concert goers all over europe with his music. his experience as a musician has been very helpful in the development of the electric vehicle sound and he's already looking forward to the day when there are no more cars with combustion engines and streets become concert halls. we fight so i guess the vehicles are our instruments and the drivers are the performers. and traffic is the
11:43 am
most interesting sonic predominant of all. because when you listen to a beethoven symphony it's always the same but traffic is always different. the cow and the musical instruments renzo vitali and his colleagues are making sure that driving the car will soon be an excuse to keep creative. it's a revolution of the. 35 years old. i grew up. in the beginning as i was starting doing that i was completely overwhelmed. from childhood come true. but like you stand on the sun. and you think. even without effort this is like magic like
11:44 am
this is like rain so you can go i didn't like where ever you. go up to like 506070 kilometers per hour it's a very very low energy consumption so the future is now. that's. this is what i. did i grew my hair. this is quite a long story. so i studied mechanical engineering my plans has been being a professional player then afterwards or while doing that in the fashion or engineer having my save money and all that stuff as i saw the unicycle the 1st time my my my head was exploding. so how. freaking thing working right so i knew ok. oh. if i do this i have to. stop to work
11:45 am
like that until the end of my life so there's enough to do. on my devices for the events and for the coaching so today is a very important day where a lot of people want to write and drive. this year is my storage room where i 4 prepare and where i store my vehicle so there's my garish and also my working bench there run about 15 unicycles 15 twin wheels and some segues and some have aborts and all self balancing vehicles i can make my business with ranting and with doing courses. this is my usual morning program so that i can activate my body and
11:46 am
the funny when saw system. it's a very nice practice. just send still. and drink a little bit of water by the time. since still. much. so with those things i like and i've got 3 hands so. it's pretty good to drive and ride with those. if the police catch
11:47 am
me i would get a fine. after youth the car right now to get through the field so difficult because i'm not allowed to drive. on the streets so it's illegal. so we have to care for them even with those. like unicycle so the violence which everybody would drive this this is very small. and the cars are so big so the street is a mass it will be nice to have this free. have a smaller city no more cars on the street and just some little small he calls. so my practice and chip at the morning with electric unicycles and with normal unicycles and with skates so i started with electric unicycle to make some
11:48 am
pirates to warm up a little bit. my father he wanted to always letting the ice skate so not ice hockey but like figure skating i never did it. so we were always like that isaac you were always saying like this bloody figure skaters they make on the scratches in the eyes and so on but like the unicycle it was nice to or generate and to get the sensitivity so i could change to like to it's moved and to to practice pirates to practice handstand to practice all that stuff and to create some kind of figure skating on the back to create an electric unicycle. so. i stuck you to electric unicycle. it's a nice it's a nice death. figure
11:49 am
skating it's like a higher level body controlled and you can switch into another world which is pretty pretty cool. if you mix a coup but excuse me we it's it looks like it's. really. this is full of spies who write. books like. what you did to me in the last 7 years. i was allowed to earn my money like from several different business cases over that but still was able to connect like to a lot of people. the serving we know each other since 2013.
11:50 am
so this is the way we say hello. creating a foundation for electric unicycle so we're in one of the phoenix area the 1st and one of the best things about this is like that it's a great hobby and fun and sports which we know the market is a bit in the 2nd so it is something we want to change and become normal members of the day the public transportation. events want to undermine the feel i'm also see my inability to watch and legally did what. i'm fighting for the legalization of electric unicycles and all other light electric. so free rights for everyone hands a better flow in the traffic for everyone. these
11:51 am
protesters these rides these massive gatherings where lots of people just go right down the street with police escort and this time it's in berlin germany it's a revolution. off transport and you can commute very very quick from a to b. like with a car you can always carry it inside so it's safe you can combine it with every kind of transport it's very smart this is a big picture. and transport. i'm preparing a course to test that people are able to drive safely we did slalom test we are doing tests to avoid obstacles with a sharp turn. and having a braking test over there that we show that braking as possible.
11:52 am
so we have to practice it live in a driving school. now we are testing if electric unicycle is braking as good as they can exclude which is allowed and legalised on the street yet so let's have a test let's have a try. and so we try to really hard and we saw ok it's pretty comparable so i'm breaking a little bit better and faster so yeah i think we're ready to go on the streets legally it's pretty nice to have a. so if you are you're very very free to. to go where and however you want you know also you have to like all the opportunities like going for the front ward or back ward so it's a free floating system that's really very minimalistic free floating system which
11:53 am
is very adaptive and very intuitive if you can ride it. this is yulia and we're doing 2nd lesson today so all to try. we are under control with only one leg and we do like guess. this not that easy and it's a long long process until this is just like inside of you. so from my experience as a coach i would say normal people need 10 to 20 hours of exercising until they can pass the test to join the traffic safely. lost in the cold and. we have a little ride steward with some arts playing an artist and celebrate that we want to legalize the thing and have someone.
11:54 am
read. it you. know now. what it did to me this electric company as a medium many many people i was allowed to get to know and many crazy situations just out socialize how to connect how to how to do business how to relax my life changed in the last 4 years and so i'm standing here with electric unicycle fans doing their thing. and no one is seen and there's no way. to.
11:55 am
