so the car of the future will be electric what else the trend is toward so driving cars that leave the driver free to focus on more 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 cause need to be ready so the customer can work play all read at leisure all. connectivity is clearly going to be key but perhaps not just inside the car elon in cars says automakers need to see the bigger picture. him and actually yet out in the car or not specially now in the pandemic i would like to have seen automakers investing in the development of new mobility concepts head concept. this could be apps that allow customers to decide how to get from a to b.
4:46 am
perhaps a single platform that offers various forms of transport here to automakers risk falling behind. us could. have to add 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 will continue to expand and develop that. the carmakers are working on their digital strategy individually as rivals the prospect of one big mobility platform for all isn't on the cards. there have been ideas and discussions on not but no decisions yet. so there's plenty of room for innovators from other industries to put google and.

apple are already on the job. even aircraft maker sense an opportunity. if 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 driver's unit dony and chi static. we're going to find out who is the 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 2 beauty.

the electric powered by eggs have similar steps so it promises to be a close fight the 0 as far as 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 a $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 it's often called the test on 2 wheels. harley davidson has long stood for loud mentors 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 e.u. sales grew by 50 percent to almost $19000.00 units all right is so is taking which bike i would say there's 2 options we can either fight it out or do rock paper
4:49 am
scissors what do you prefer i would say we do rock paper scissors but the winner takes the harley. want to 3. 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 brake or take our hand off the accelerator it generates power for the battery. 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.
4:50 am
4:51 am
i'm sure i can win the next challenge to braking. we'll 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 you know that's why it's hard to use that to compare which bike has the better brakes. not. the next test it's 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.
4:52 am
the harley says it's capable of super charging which could be a reason to buy it but apparently not at this station and 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 or our final challenge because everyone has something very special and i know you will love it because because it's a race through yes it's dog and then the once you're used to. tom so far both bikes have 2 points each fossils left will win the crown our instructor
4:53 am
4:54 am
4:55 am
or how do i do it is going to the coach. so all the crushes on the right strike hold off a little bit but look at the suit for. we're back at where we started so i'm risking our queen of emotive cycles considering the challenges i won the bread crazed and the go cart track and i won the slow driving and the breaking. news. so that's technically a time but even billet is all about charging right well the charging with the holly life i was just in saying this is definitely in a great going to get some minus but this is a lovely bike but the charging was a just a pain in the. so with all this in our minds who do you think should get the crown well the be perfectly honest i think the 0 deserves to crown the charging process with a life by a shift no fun so. they should do it yes from what you say roads get you maybe

putin warned western powers not to meddle in moscow's affairs. we're just beginning you must we really don't want to burn in. bridges. but if some mistake are good intentions for indifference or weakness and intent to burn or even lower those bridges themselves. russia's response will be even more forceful quick and tough we stood him. in recent weeks russia has been building up its military presence on the ukrainian border and in crimea pouring fuel on a simmering territorial conflict between ukraine forces and russian backed separatists this escalation was met with condemnation from abroad. but as he delivered his warning to the west was facing headwinds at home across the country people gathered to protest at news of the deteriorating health of imprisoned

opposition leader alexina valley. heavy police presence was supposed to deter those protests by key aides in a valley was snatched from the street in moscow and locked in a police van on the grounds of the interior ministry. just because justice i think that everything that is happening is to scare all the other people i was literally detained for the thought of showing up at the rally. so i would be detained until the late evening in this police van. but you know perfectly well what you should do . you shouldn't be afraid to let. these golden ticket for you but yet. the crackdown could not prevent protests even in far flung parts of the country like here in the remote siberian city of houla day. i came here on purpose to raise my voice against future and ongoing repression.
5:04 am
against the killing of alexina valley in jail. against having many political prisoners. the rallies were met with mass arrests. that did not stop thousands from gathering in moscow as night fell. brute force has not caused dissent in russia just yet but i leave. it to the u.s. now where borders have been paying tribute to dante write the 20 year old black man shot and killed by police earlier this month white was killed during a traffic stop minneapolis on april 11th the officer who shot him has been charged with manslaughter and the memorial service is take. place the day after a jury convicted for a place off the dark chauvin of a mud tree another black minneapolis residents torched floyd last may well only i spoke to d. w. stefan simons who is following developments for us in minneapolis yesterday was
5:05 am
a day of pure emotion after the verdict was announced and 3 guilty verdicts are mr derek showing was found guilty on all 3 counts today is a more somber mood no having said that of course people are still coming here to george floyd so-called george white square and pay their respects to this memorial there ever acted here and we have seen it many many times but for the majority of the black community here in this neighborhood as well as all over minneapolis probably all of the nation this is a day where they take stock say ok what happened yesterday was a good thing it was a good 1st step for what they expect to come and that is change real change real reform in what policing is in the united states and what racial equality in the justice system means and the speaking of change tell us more about the justice
5:06 am
department opening an investigation into the police department there. the federal government is taking the 1st steps to take this to another level the department of justice has announced that they will be looking investigating the minneapolis police department people we talked to here it welcomed it all the way through said it's about time that somebody does this the d.o.j. the department of justice in washington will look at how the measures and procedures processes of the minneapolis police department measure actually out when it comes to justice to not profiling to disproportionate use of force and that means 2 things a the minneapolis police department is now under pressure may have some say in trouble they want to cooperate they will cooperate so they have no other chance that also means that the federal government is really seeing this as a watershed moment you where they can push it forwards meaning they can really work
5:07 am
on real change what policing means in the u.s. ok and it's very briefly how similar is the case of dante right to the one towards floyd. i can show you this and that explains everything if you look down here this little tiny memorial just little circle justice for john to write this is exactly how it started the year go about a few days later for george floyd and this circle is the beginning for what everybody says here will be the same procedures they did with even of the cases very different of course details are different but another young black man shot in a traffic stop whatever the details are it is about disproportionate or appropriate use of force by police and they don't seem to have this year. a real good handle on this and that's why this little circle is here and will probably also become a big one right on time and thank you so much. germany is part of it is
5:08 am
pawson you know all that will impose coronavirus lockdowns on areas with high infection rates and ends a patchwork approach to tackling the pandemic by germany's 16 federal states opinion polls show majority of the population approve the move but a very loud and visible minority does not. chancellor angela merkel campaigned long and hard for the new legislation but on wednesday she let others take the floor there was heated debate down to the very last moment opposition parties such as the right wing populist a.f.d. try to have the vote removed from their genda drawing harsh criticism from the coalition government. minister and it's even if there's no law then there will be no emergency measures and if there are no measures people will get sick and die and the fact that they are now clapping reveals the true hideous nature of this party.
5:09 am
going to start the business friendly f.t.p. say they'll challenge the law in the courts. and by that i want to add this there is no scientific evidence which proves that curfews prevent the spread of the virus and to just hope that they will actually make a difference is not enough to justify such a serious infringement on citizens fundamental rights should be every big one text and if so h. tragic but in the end the majority of parliamentarians voted in favor of amending the infection protection act. the changes affect all cities and districts registering more than 100 cases per 100000 residents over a week and nighttime curfew will be imposed from 10 pm until 5 am contact will be limited for residents from one household to just one other person when the 7 day incidence rate exceeds $165.00 schools and shops will be closed currently most cities and districts are seeing infection rates well above these figures meaning
5:10 am
the changes will take effect almost immediately. surveys show that a majority of people in germany approve of the measures many are in favor of even tougher measures but that didn't stop a minority from taking to the streets around 8000 demonstrators gathered outside parliament to protest what they see as an unjustified attack on their constitutional rights they now hope that the new law will be stopped either by the 2nd chamber of parliament the bonus scott or the courts. all the reported durrell dull dull roy joins me in the store again now for more on this how bad is the situation in germany when it comes to the pandemic after several weeks of seeing a rise in the number of cases things actually have started to level off here we're currently seeing cases of around $160.00 per 100000 residents over a 7 day average and that's not true bad considering other european countries but
5:11 am
from that plus 0 point things could go up or down which is why chancellor angela merkel has been pushed. for these new national restrictions which will bring in new restrictions assume some automatic points have been reached now all but one of germany's 16 federal states is already above that trigger point i would not time curfews will have to come into effect many are also above this 2nd trigger point which shops will have to close non-essential shops will have to close and some are even above the trigger point at which schools will have to close so large parts of germany will find themselves under new restrictions as soon as this new law pass' and that could happen as soon as today on thursday and you've mentioned these nighttime cuffy it always has been a lot of discussion about this why are they so controversial here in germany other countries have actually had not time curfews for quite a long time france netherlands parts of canada and argentina right now but germany has been quite resistant to them except in certain localized cases the people who
5:12 am
are out protesting today say that they are an intrusion of their constitutional rights others question whether they're even effective but what they are intended to do is to stop people moving around at night and meeting up in private households which is wet what experts say where a lot of the transmissions do occur now that said germany's not time curfew is actually going to be quite light it's going to run from 10 am to 5 pm 5 am and there will be exceptions to allow people to continue exercising until midnight so it's actually going to affect very few people anyway and then just very quickly there are those that think that the measures just don't go far enough right well germany still doesn't do a lot of things there are still no mandatory quarantining of international arrivals in specific hotels or facilities like we see in the u.k. or new zealand or australia there's still no requirements for people to be tested for covert 90 at workplaces which is what some opposition parties called for so while some in germany might think that these measures are quite an intrusion people in other parts of the world might see them as quite moderate ok that's joel dollar

thank you so much for your time. but for now and the wrap up of midweek bundesliga match they saw dortmund hosting onya and with just a month left in the season dortmund need every when they can get to make it to the top 4 for a champions league spot. and dortmund as usual turned to the youngsters with their champions league qualification hopes hanging by a thread their opponents in young were also chasing a european spot and it was they who almost got off to a flying start with just 13 seconds on the clock markus inverts and co the shot against the crossbar an early let off for dortmund but the hosts grew into the game to organize are fed marker royce and the captain should have put dortmund ahead but his short role thomas league wide. royce made amends though in the 25th minute when he won a penalty this seemed to be little contact from on young keeper. and although he
5:14 am
saved holland's spot kick royce followed up and bundled the full list of bits of pill to swallow for the visitors who felt the penalty was harsh and almost managed to clear their lines. in the 2nd half they went agonizingly close to equalising when max crosses free kick can and off the post replace showed dortmund keeper marvin hits got a feather light touch on the ball to turn it on to the post and keep his side paid . with time ticking away dortmund made the win safe with only rephase counterattack rafael guerrero doubled his side's lead with a smart finish pass the stubborn loser. dorman's more experienced stars delivered a 2 nil win that gives them a fighting chance of making the top 4 because. this is deja news live from in 10 bastion is coming up next with conflicts and
