the legs on somebody having them take. 60 minutes. got some hot tips for your bucket list. corner. spot for some. and some great cultural memorials to boot. we are living during the most extraordinary time st. francis ford

coppola profile the electric cars. that have. the auto mobility show. rev gives you a sneak preview of the audi almost 2021. are you as excited as we are. this is a prototype which means that we are among the 1st people in the world who want to drive by ourselves. on. our people in bangkok reacting to the new public transport network. by that time i will have to do a sexy because. i want to. and will the future bring more sustainable cars. we really hope of.

i start using aerials because you have me want to show that it's possible on many occasions brace yourself. you're going to see more along the way read here we go. hello friends all told me today is that again the audi t.t. but today we want to feel the dynamics. i. don't train to go was like hell no wonder with 475 kilowatts and 800 metres of talk . has to be engines one at the front axle and one of the 3 in.

the joey engines pitchfork the car you know 23 seconds from standstill to 100 kilometer this. drive units and propulsion it with i would hit. the top speed of this high performance cars electronically limited to 250 kilometers an hour which is plain more than most other electric cars out there. if you're wondering why the interior of this car still is here well this is a prototype which means that we are among the 1st people in the world who want to drive for you from sea to you by ourselves spots only in the highly professional company because the car is going to market in 2021. the exact date is not yet next to me expect the county is the market in the next few months. with. 90 q what

allen battery is an average consumption of just over 20 killer what al is the only speech on g t it will cover a range of around 400 kilometers. the best part is when your your drive select but push this button into the dynamic mode because the fun begins especially when you are among the 1st people in the world who are allowed to drive the car by yourself . and the thing that makes it fun is because suspension. driving dynamic it's very cool the suspension of special feature 3 check my ass suspension we. just. set it to only $102.00 was a very small to the other hand to a very dynamic driving feeling. the $800.00 called charging system will enable you to charge the car from 0 to 80 percent in just 20

minutes. that will result in another $320.00 economic times of range. so it's the 1st battery electric vehicle that. with a flat bottom architecture that means the battery is integrated very low in the car so we can realize a very low center of gravity even lower than on an hour 8 so on a super sports car and a highlight of the battery. that we have no better results in the. foot well that means we can realize a very low seat position on the one hand and a very flat roof line on the other hand. the prices for the arias trial and t.t. will start at around 138000 feet. as well as the on top they will also be smaller versions with less. pools and over. the top. i don't run

100000. special on the. transmission on the reaction we have a 1st talk and 1st acceleration and the 2nd year for high speeds and higher. electric cars don't have any here so you see each trunk she teaches like counting the pusher type con is very special in that respect. after 2 days with a new audi each one she'd tell you one thing is clear it's. our 1st full electric grand to a small and the front is much nicer in comparison to the porsche type. just sum it up to each one g.t. is a highly powerful performance is done with an incredible look and a decent range on the downside the prices are relatively high even with the entry level.

change is coming to bangkok thanks to a mixture of modern technology and powerful and wisdom. the old watertown on the flood plains of the child prior river has become a sprawling metropolis but such rapid growth has come at a high price. but. i like the idea of building more roads. into deals people to drive. to driving around bangkok these days means traffic chaos air pollution and the threat of flooding but they could be a way out just waiting to be discovered they cannot. dismiss it. in this film will

meet the people unlocking one of the city's greatest treasures and those who depend on their success. and we will see how german technology is helping the tynecastle return to a more reliable form of mobility. she had at home likes to stroll she says it's the best way to get through bangkok traffic in her lifetime the city has grown 10 fold but she still knows where she can go to escape the pressures of in a zation. remind you of. you know a lot of. these days you have to the car to see any resemblance to the italian city the arrival of the motor vehicle in the 1st half of the 20th century led to many of bangkok's canel springfield in all built on to create more roads the

policy massively change the character of the city explains the 70 year old the reason why they started to feel what it can know and built. because they wanted to show it to the world at a world country is coming to developed and you want to reach up in space so there will be a mall rort mall car. bangkok was founded as a canal city in the 18th century and still boasts more than 1100 waterways but these days in the city center and the central business district the network once the city's transportation backbone is disrupted or nonexistent. in fact almost 2 thirds of the trips in bangkok may have using private vehicles including more than 4000000 cars and countless more motorcycles. this sat nav company tom-tom regularly runs the city among google. traffic congestion.

part of the problem according to. him is that many thais don't like to use public transport. if you took a bus is mean that you have no money this is this is a bit of the attitude with. this. but all that could change in the coming years if people like pump on said by the time to have their way the open plan is working to upgrade what's left of the canal network he and his team are advising the city of bangkok on how to return the waterways to the key roles that the city's founders understood hundreds of years ago. in effect their benefits have you know been there but there have been a better connectivity. this official project video illustrates the plans to integrate bangkok's canal system with other mass transit systems especially the

metro network. the idea is to join up more than 400 kilometers of canals across the bangkok metropolitan area with hundreds of transport. the chance. to see the challenges firsthand be discarding quite. ok here on bangkok. the restoration project means free housing thousands of people who have built shanty like housing into the waterway itself. used to be for them you know and nowadays if you get this kind of house in the future of you have to dig down to 3. otherwise could be too shallow for you in the front. over there you see the pier we have to knock it down to expand the canal and we're like. also going to be limited. to. a new house. you're going to see more along the way.

the canal restoration will not only help people move more freely across bangkok by improving water flow through the city during the monsoon season it's hoped that it will in the catastrophic flooding that regularly cripples the thai capital such as here in 2011. well it's unlikely that central bangkok will regain its ancient canal network the last of way could provide a major link to the few canals and bangkok that are used for public transport their potential is clearly shown by the sign saya canal which sees up to $50000.00 commuters every day. commuters like nat upon ben just because she works as a barista in the city center cafe and doesn't own a car so she has no choice but to use public transport but taking a bus is out of the question she says if the one tool will work on time is my base

unlike a road based options the water bus won't get stuck in traffic she says. well it's what if i mean isn't it 45 min if every day so i. may well place on the team $30.00 to $30.00 it be days not waste time like. the 12 kilometer journey cause not upon a roughly 30 euro cents making it not only the finest is but also the cheapest option for reaching her workplace. however if the old diesel powered would have buses that ply the science can will create health and environmental hazards of they were. like oh. i think. a lot of life. to 45 minutes the younger mr arrives at his stop from here it's only

a 5 minute walk to work place in downtown bangkok. the street sounds come almost as a reprieve after the noise of the old diesel college would have passed but even that could soon be a thing of the past. bangkok city government has realised that was a transport must become more attractive if it is to catch on with the population. that's why he was sorry he's one to add electric water bus lines on many of the resurrected canals. to be gone there are a lot. of what i think it'll be much better. in the past especially when the boats were passing each other. it was very loud. and it was smelly the smell of burning diesel or petrol up there but now with electric boats we can listen to music and there won't be any unpleasant smell. digimon

company to quito will be providing. the electric engines for at least 20 have been the biggest but convincing deal sorry to go electric wasn't easy. but he asked if i get. the 1st question we normally get is how much does an electric propulsion system cost. and to be honest it's the cost of an electric system is $2.00 to $3.00 times higher than for a conventional outboard engine. in the long run that took itto direct to says the running costs would offset the initial cost of the electric boats and. that's the advantage over a combustion engine that has many moving parts where you have to do regular oil changes or you have to exchange certain components because of wear and tear. in our electric engines there are no moving parts. that means we hardly need any

maintenance or repair. once the new 5 o'clock will be powered by 12 lithium batteries. we're currently installing the power $24.00 battery it's in the rear of the boat. later we will mount the chargers and solar chargers charge of. all the batteries are numbered so that we always know the condition and level of every single battery . the new boats are powered by twin propellers each providing a thrust of 20 horsepower for the charge they can run for up to 4 hours and have a maximum speed of 17 kilometers per hour for extra range each vessel is equipped with 12 solar panels we have a lot of sun here in southeast asia so they are very efficient here and we are extending there for the range of the border by say at least 1520 percent.

one electric mobility still has its limitations points out that bangkok's canals offer the perfect conditions for battery power transport. by. when you're driving electric boat you have to know your route and the distance you want to cover. here on the canals this is always pre-determined we know the number of kilometers we know the maximum capacity the total weight of the boat can go and we can guarantee that the boats will always be 100 percent ready to use during operating hours of writing off on. in late 2020 time nance prime minister you china child was personally on hand to switch to a new era of public transport in the capital throughout. was was. it's the 1st electric fleece of passenger vessels in the country and the 1st public line the. canal has seen in many decades.

is an early adopter of the new electric boat service for the 1st month of operations the service around the heart of bangkok's old town is free to attract customers. but the timing is far from ideal starting in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic also means most of the other passengers seats are empty. as the vessel glides away the only orders will sell. is the noise of the pennies in the water. is different. though one are wrong the problem is very noisy the artist. and the board is unfair but it will be because of the variables so many boards going opposite direction but i'm in interviews this time aboard the electric board. i think people would be

very happy. that proud canal is also in mark for a new electric boat service at least once the upgrade is complete. it's a good example of the challenges of the canal restoration project for the longest time not from was known for its putrid piles of rubbish and landing preachment along its banks. and the wood to reach even that the canal is complicated by the city's efforts to win over thousands of residents who will be displaced. if somebody in fear but not your book you know they are you go you know i'll be happy. i mean they called me and has to take them to court but we try not to take them too far with pride that they were there to that throw you know. because you know being lied to for longer. than many of their might to read. are not

a houseman in their life to come back. some of the river communities have already been relocated to new houses that are subsidized by the government most residents here now agree that they are better off than before. they live been very poor quality of. living you know but now you see there is no difference in live. happy may be happy. yeah. that yeah. it's a big you know sudden kins that never been before. it's the redevelopment of the $26.00 canal will be completed by the mid 20 twenties and with it and into the environmental damage that has plagued the horses when. they differ . from now then because i'd be

a separate water. you know you have a right you have and i think that they. should let a. hopeful that the restoration of bangkok's canals will make her home city keener most sustainable and less congested but she's also been around long enough to know that significant change might take another decade of so by that time i would have to use taxi because. it but i didn't quite know why because a generation abroad very open a study abroad they come back with a different attitude which they use perhaps it sounds odd because i'm not a part of the world or people use public townsfolk. so day i will come back and use public transport lol. bangkok knows it has to change yes again by giving more and more room to cause the megacity has reached an impasse but there is

a way out the city only has to make the most of what might be its greatest asset then all the mistakes of the past will be nothing but. the breach. if you. check out our you tube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture and about mobility around the world trade can be cute very happy. vintage classics and future tech are just some of the exciting content waiting for you subscribe to a you tube you read it you'll always be up to speed. on. this car is literally rubbish complete trash. but we use a whole different kind of waste and also recycled waste but mostly on sort of waste

as well luko is the brainchild of students from the i'm told in university of technology. insofar as the dutch teams project manager. so our society is built out of this material which is flex and recycle bottles and with some other cool materials so that's actually and that's what we use in our interior as well and this is normally what you throw away in your home on sort of household waste so it's very also. their message is a simple 11 call it when it's recyclable materials. are only worth $22.00 students and not all full time and we start from scratch so it's just from nothing till this and we have to think of all of ourselves and we don't nobody ever build a car before. starting from scratch can sometimes be an advantage and help to focus inventive minds on the essentials. in just 18 months the students created

a minor miracle a car fashion from recycled ones to. championing the cause of sustainability while at the same time furthering their own potential. so that's very difficult of course but very also to do because you learn a lot about it so that's a side of. it was for you. maybe i should look at 6 batteries here they're almost 6 motorbikes. for 4 that's for sure if they're better reception so folks all to see you sitting in their estimates for discard and are actually made out of coconut 5 or or share cycle. earth for all business this way cereal this is

a seat i can follow to your fairy. that is cowered by 2 electric motors in the rear windows. it's a dream come true to drive. it's a sporty looking little mover with a top speed of around 90 kilometers and i. believe charged it has a maximum range of 220 kilometers. we really hope that all the car companies a lot of companies started using race materials because you have we want to show that it's possible in many of the occasions and i think it will take some thought but we are seeing that more and more companies are starting to use it or bio based or waste. in the interior and we want to show it's also possible to build a chevy out of it and hopefully in the coming here we also see that happening.

behind tobin university of technology has a reputation for innovation and creative young minds to keep on plugging away instead of resting on their laurels in a previous project students looked at another future mobility option and entered the ultimate competition the world solar challenge in australia and that team went on to ski for top prize in the cruiser class 4 years in a row. congratulations to next time for another one. mission rather.
