important things a living room or office on wheels. so the car becomes not just a mode of transport but an extension of the home. and it's up to us to design the vehicle accordingly cars need to be ready so the customer can work play all read at leisure. connectivity is clearly going to be key but perhaps not just inside the car elon and says automakers need to see the bigger picture. here demand actually has yet caught in a corner i specially now in the pandemic i would like to have seen automakers investing in the development of new mobility concepts concepts. this could be apps that allow customers to decide how to get from a to b. perhaps a single platform that offers various forms of transport here to automakers risk falling behind. us could.

companies like amazon alibaba and others already very strong in this area it would certainly not be sensible to wait until they have the perfect solution on the market but to take the initiative now. we've designed a digital customer interface using our we connect services and we'll continue to expand and develop that. carmakers are working on their digital strategy individually as rivals the prospect of one big mobility platform for all isn't on the cards. they have been ideas and discussions on not but no decisions yet. so there's plenty of room for innovators from other industries to play google and apple are already on the job. even aircraft maker sense an opportunity. it's. there's any big breakthrough the german part of maker could once again find

itself playing catch up. and from 4 wheels to 2 you think it'll be a little harder to win over real redhead's when it comes to going electric and there are a lot of hurdles when it comes to the technology but even motorbikes a racing up the popularity ladder we put 2 of them to the test drivers dhoni and chi static. we're going to find out who is queen or king of the murder cycles. i don't have the feeling. i gave the 3rd. and therefore we prepared some seriously gruesome challenges for these true beauty . the electric powered by eggs have similar steps so it promises to be a close fight the 0 as far as it has 110 horsepower and the premium model will set

you back about 26000 euros in germany. is heavier and packs slightly less horse power at $105.00 it costs around $33000.00 the manufacturers want to show their modern side 0 motorcycles is a start up from the u.s. and is often called the test on 2 wheels. harley davidson has long stood for loud motors and the smell of gas but even it launched its 1st electric model in 2019 its clients are becoming more environmentally conscious and electric motor cycles are becoming more popular in 2020 in the sales grew by 50 percent to almost $19000.00 units already so it is taking which bike i would say there's 2 options we can either fight it out or do rock paper scissors what do you prefer i would say we do rock paper scissors but the winner takes a harley so i want to. so

we hit the road very quietly the loudest thing is the sound of the other vehicles around us and the ride feels pretty solid in city traffic it's actually easier because you don't have to shift gears all the time. because it's our 1st time on the motorbike. and we have a long day ahead of us we're worried about the range so we've both opted for the eco mode whenever we break or take our hand off the accelerator it generates power for the better. we start our competition with a drag race on a go cart test track outside berlin. drag race means who's fastest off the mark. on your mark get set. go.

for the. so. but biking is more than just going fast the real test of a bike can be at slow speeds and you can easily lose balance so it's time for a challenge number 2 getting snow without touching the ground. are come our callers there's. look. 2 i'm sure i can win the next challenge to breaking. wheel speed up to

60 kilometers an hour and brake as hard as we can. and. frank is not really convinced by the accuracy of this test. we have you can't really compare them because it depends how fast you're moving one or 2 kilometers an hour would make a difference when did you start to break it's time for you both to do it at the same time. that's why it's hard to use that to compare which bike has the better brakes. but it was not. the next test is probably more interesting for every day riders 1st we take the bikes through some lovely brand book countryside to run the batteries down. time for the charge challenge. the harley says it's capable of super charging which could be

a reason to buy it but apparently not at this station says oh my god if this really takes 8 hours which i don't then we'll stay here until forever but luckily it wasn't 8 hours after an hour the harley was half charged turns out charging. busy or s.o.'s isn't any easier either. after another they were almost fully charged both bikes disappointed with the range we got which was less than promised are our final challenge because everyone has something very special and i know you will love it because because it's a race to yes if there aren't then the once you're used to. mom so far both bikes have 2 points each will win their crown our instructor frank lays down the gauntlet on a conventional petrol bike it's not that fast. now it's julia's turn. of 1. 2. 3.

but he's taking the 1st one a pretty good. i want to hit the gas. there she goes you do it in 0. 55 that's quite ok for holly right. now it's time to prove that my 0 is better.

ready to go on. the wonder a vengeance. what. or how do i do it it is good it's the coach. so all the crushes on the right strike

hold off a little bit but look at this for. we're back at where we started so i'm risking our queen emotes of cycles considering the challenges i want to breath raised and the go cart track and i won the slow driving and the braking. so that's technically a time but even billets he's all about charging right well the charging with the harley like i was just insane this is definitely in a great going against a minus point this is a lovely bike but the charging was a just a pain in the. so with all this in our minds do you think i should get the crown well the be perfectly honest i think the 0 deserves to crown the charging process with the life i is just no fun so. i should do it yes i'm going to say road that you may be a crown. well just up do not. come if you. can

see chi putting up much of a fight for that crown then after calling it technically a tie but he's a good sport both of them are that's it for this week thanks for watching.
