an expedition into the secret language of wales. exciting part of underwater listening. if you're getting a window into their, their life that you never, you would never see your company research team to the pacific to the language of wales, june 4th on dw the use, the news we are living during the most extraordinary time in history. transport

electric, read the auto and mobility show this week a rough and tumble all the electric raises a lot of power, desert adventure, that's also for a good cause. to raise awareness of some of the most critical environmental issues facing our planet. and in another welcome development, there's gender parity behind the wheel. you just say we have half a woman. half of the most part we have 99 percent men. so i think that definitely there is the need to have more women in both the mothers. we also look at the go to and yak, and all the electric s u v, that could become a serious challenger to the established competition. i think this might be the better idea for plus a world premiere from or the us is an all electric car that's been designed to

ring in a new carbon neutral era. i think through technology, we have a tremendous opportunity in the next decades to significantly lower the seo to burden on the planet reb, showing the way forward to saving the planet right now. the dream. a race that the ends of the or the world's most extreme off road motor race takes place of following locations on our planet where the natural environment has been devastated the it so it's not what you do and it's a lot of power. yeah, it's a lot of fun,

real racing. i mean that was a great name from the law to raise awareness for some of the most critical environment. issues facing our planning. pretty much everything is different about extreme. there are more women drivers than most other races. the courses are more unfamiliar and more extreme and such in hospitable terrain is not for the faint hearted. the composition means that there's risk and with risk. sometimes the discretion, the for you there was a reason you picked dreamy me taking it to the limit in places already wealthy on their time is running out, but sport may have one of the answers. this is the desert in saudi arabia. it was here organizer alejandro god from spain gathered the big names of international

motor sports for the 1st leg of the new extreme e series in april. excuse me, either raise their work to use the power of support to bring people and bring up any information on the the original plan would actually be lead. hope international motorsports want to do therapy at 7 time formula. one world champion lewis hamilton set up his own team for extreme tv. that's something that's very close to my heart, something that i'm really passionate about. so now it gives not charity to, to me to be so mean to be merged. my love for motor racing together with my love. so there's also $19.00 time rally world champion in the field to come out this month. somebody did send me the way for the future. off was another form or f one world champion also found it. and dr. ferguson team,

it's been definitely a new experience with nickel growth. there is also organized the team for the sport as such a big power and reach that it is the duty of sport to also leverage that reach for doing good and for changing the world for the better. and that's what we're hearing of the motor sports championship organizer. alejandro a gog spend year touring the planet to find the most desolate backdrops at the end of the earth. we have lambda, we started looking for places from the torch to rain forests of the amazon basin, to the glazed fears of the arctic extreme effects to draw attention to places threatened by global warming and environmental devastations. places are, are melting and we will have some electric race cars, basically racing in front of the wall of the north. so these were like a little bit like the game of thrones. i. we have,

i think some of them were spectacular racing bags that no one has ever seen the news . i think motor sport needs to be closer to society. most of courtney need to reflect what society is and in society. we have half a woman, half of men in motorsport. we have 99 percent men. so i think definitely there is a need for my point of view to have more women involving motors for women. make up half of the starting field, a big opportunity for the latest generation of female racing drivers. you know, i think we're given the opportunity to write the really high level, you know, all of us. i don't think this talks about the extreme

e could revolutionize motor sports where successful women drivers remain a rarity. one such exception usa climate who won the parents dot com or rally in 2001 my success. and every year i would love to see more women doing exactly the same. what i, if she and the problem is to come in with a sport, it's very difficult and know with this new theory half of the few minutes. and they, they have a chance to show their potential punishment is one of extreme ease organizers. she designs the courses building temporary race tracks in the wilderness. each team consists of a male and female driver to swap places halfway through the stage. over a series of qualifiers, 9 teams compete for one of the 3 places in the final and it was a good make. so it's not like the men of the process and the women of the flow is not at all. so we have very limited in the final and saudi australia. molly taylor

of team ross there took the checkered flag. one of the great things about what the hell went on. it doesn't matter what gender you are and that's kind of, i would like to be growing up and continue to rally, and these would be fantastic for the, for the sport. and for the show us, because extreme me is also showtime a hands, it's the stuff of hollywood use to get as many people as possible on board auster winnings. director fisher stevens is developing entirely new tv formats for the sports will create something that's very unique and that we can help stories in the most kind of vulnerable and important ecological parts of the, of the planet adventure data develop, child has formed a team of scientists to develop concepts to regenerate damaged ecosystem,

which is where the races take place. i want to be put in scenes finding communities that we can help and support and leaving those communities with possibility and opportunities. not just going in and saying, hey, look at us, we're having fun in your environment and leaving. so about the child is also responsible for race logistics. a container ship was converted into a floating product to get the teens to the venue. so equipped with green technology is still can't get from a to b without fossil fuels, which is why critics ask if it makes sense as these raise, that generates emissions in the worlds most remote places. and some people may argue. so you've got to take all these people there. is that really a good thing? well, it puts a spotlight and really widens the money. people that aware of some of the challenges and the vi tense in the middle of the desert. you know, you need to show to, to, of our nets,

off all the topics they say for the participants say the critics are living in the past. there's always critic for everything. and then if you, if you don't want to, if you want to be 0 emission in the world and you have to live in the case. so unfortunately, we're all going to have to do a step in a direction to be able to really impact the greater good in a big way and to generate huge benefits for all of us. that won't happen if we all live in the game. today. i am proud to announce the launch of my own racing team, robert extreme races. this is x 4440 for the new kind of writing. nico ross there again, louis hamilton made headlines and formula one with a head to head deal. now their teams are added again in the 1st place to rock their notes in front of the patenting each other again and extremely as you must not have

drivers that's going to be great. and. busy make no mistake, none of us come 2nd. but at the same time, what i like too much is that the more intense are back to get. the more we will be able to contribute for the greater good because the more visibility we will create the championships for the issues that you are undertaking in those locations. so the show must go on to the end of the year. what do you think he can wait for your comment? if you want more read, check out our youtube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture and about mobility around the world rep can make you very happy. the

d n yack is not built in germany, china or north america. but at scotto main plan, the mulatto bullets law in the czech republic, the area is probably one of the most important cause for go into in recent years. and you could say it's actually the 1st real electric car bias go into and quite fittingly the name in york comes from the irish word n. yeah. and that means sort of life. of course, before the end yard, there was the city go e i v. but that one was still based on the w. s. m q be platform. and that's a platform that was used for combustion engine cars. this one, the new york now sits on the new m e. be platform, just like the w id for. and that platform was specifically designed for all electric cars. and that's why i want to paper id for

n b n york. look quite similar. in yaks comes in 3 versions, all with rear wheel drive and with motors running at 109100. $32.00 or $150.00 kilowatts and exclaimed range of 537 kilometers for our test. we drove the i v 80 with the most powerful electric engine and the largest battery. here there are strong similarities to the id for. now just as my colleague among you has mentioned during his test drive with the id for that was also equipped with the 77 kilowatt hour, big battery, and $204.00 horse power electric engine. the car is super silent and that's also the case in here. just as in the id for the scope, the engineers have done a really great job when it comes to insulating and dampening. now electric cars are always pretty silent. but in here, besides some wind noise is coming from the

a pillar and your typical tire on rolling noises. you don't really hear anything at all. so the right comfort is super high in year. but you can feel the weight of the car. i mean, we're talking 2.3 tons, of course electric car, big metric that sits quite low in the car. so that's good for low center of gravity when taking some tons, but still after the initial punch, when you stop to accelerate, you really can feel the weight just like the id for the n yak goes from 0 to 108.6 seconds. sandra has a top speed limited at 160 kilometers in our more family cruiser than race car. people looking for more performance should probably wait for the 80 x or even the r s. f version, which are planned for later this year and will feature more powerful trick engines

and all wheel drive. so while the id for and the in york tech wise put the interchangeable design definitely this us a lot. c, w created a whole new design language for it's all electric id line, very organic, looking with almost no sharp edges go. on the other hand, they went the other route, meaning the n yak is clearly recognizable as a scope to a lot of sharp edges. and overall shown here, appearance and, and su v meet station wagon crossover design. but at 4.65 meters long. and 1.62 wide. the ac is actually a bit more aerodynamic. and the id for its trunk is 40 leaders bigger then it's german counterpart of course. and then it comes down to personal preference which one you prefer?

but personally i like the look of the more go to says the n. yeah. can sure i get up to 125 kilowatt, depending on battery size. that means that at a fast charger, the largest battery can go from 5 to 80 percent in 38 minutes at home. the n yeah, can be reached, charged at a while box with up to 11 kilowatts ac in 6 to 8 hours. now one topic, the n yagmi completely different then the idea for is recuperation in the yard. just like in the i before you've got to driving moles the and me, and in b you will always get the maximum level of recuperation, just like in the id for and in the, the con normally will fail. but here in the, in york, you also get these shifting paddles that you in the id for and with these you can

change the amount of recuperation in 3 levels. and i think that's a very nice feature. of course you could say in the id for that's the more simplistic system. have the car pretty much just tell you. you either get 3 corporation or you can say, but i think giving the customer the choice is always the better way of doing this. now when we're talking about one path to driving the yard, just like the id for, won't get to a complete stop when you take your foot of the accelerator as it will always trip along no matter the level of recuperation you're driving. and so to come to a full stop when you're approaching a traffic light, you have to put your foot on the brake pads to further conserve range, especially in the winter when the heater is on. the new act can be equipped with a heat. but as with the id for that doesn't come standard,

let's look at the interior. and for me that's one of the points are probably the most important point. why i think the emmy is the better id for. don't get me wrong . the interior in the id for looks very nice, very modern, little bit futuristic, but depending on where you look, you could find some hot plastic pots, and that wasn't the case with w in the past. in here, on the other hand, if you take a look, you've got a nice decorative ditching. everything is soft. just, i mean, if you would come this logo and have a log in, could think you were sitting in an audio. it's really, really nice to look and feel. so yeah, i just think interior wise, we had plus the big plus thumbs up for buttons because yes, as i said in the id for they try to go this futuristic route. so everything patch

but well it might look nice, but when it comes to functionality, it's maybe not the best and it looks like go to things so as well because here, now you've got at least some buttons too quickly, extra for some of the climate change. the driving molds and also here the steering wheel and the id for you had some touch sensitive surfaces that well again look nice, but when you try to steer you accidentally with touch them and will turn on the steering heating in here, you've got my roof. easy to use and 12, that's the way to go. i a thing, at least the seats are available in sustainably processed, recycled or natural materials. scotto came up with 6, the magically distinct interiors for the and yak, inspired by real world living rooms. in addition to a 5.3 inch digital cockpit, it has a central display measuring up to 13 inches from the outside. you're in that big.

it's comparable to an octavia or it's a little smaller than octavia in fact. but in here, you've got the space of the big kodiak, or super. it's crazy. yeah, you should have all the space you really need back here. and of course, also back here, you can find these little clever details. like, for example, a little pocket for your phone, a little phone hold. when you want to watch a movie. and of course, 231 socket with 150 watts. that's enough, for example, to charge your notebook where driving the in the end, the new york features everything that already made the need for a very nice electric car. super silent, big battery, long range, high driving comfort and space wise. everything you could ask for in comparison, it comes down to personal preference. and as i said at the beginning,

for me, things like the s u, v, station wagon crossover design, the quantity plus that might not look as modern, not necessarily the more functional option plus the option to change recuperation levels. and of course, the price make the, the better id for the price is where the id started just under $34000.00 euros a few 1000 and less than the cheapest id for our test car. the ioc id, 80 starts, that just under $44000.00, still several 100 less than a comparable id for pro. this is the budding new star on the mercedes guys. the us is the flagship of the

car makers electrified challenge to tesla and its world. premiere was an stuttgart this frame. this is really a car for the world. we can see that the electric segment and the demand for battery electric vehicles is developing a lot of momentum, a luxury car with a diesel style range of 1st on the german market. boasting and executive sized battery that translates into 770 kilometers. the gas class is always the letter that stay the flagship car in our product portfolio. and e q is the sub brand for electric intelligence performance, an extraordinarily low drag and handsome looks at always played a major role in the car makers s class model. i and the mercedes team are evidently proud of this sumptuously powered and styled

automobile each u. s. ushers in a new era for us. and this one bowed to sign. very spectacular, very futuristic. was an opportunity to in a way reinvent the invention. and it goes by the logic form follows function. and sustainability to of course dime look plans to make its entire fleet of models, carbon neutral by 2039 over the next 4 years alone, the company will be investing over 70000000000 euros in r n d. but will dimer manage to overtake tesla in the last segment for decades on and we dominate this segment and what we know from our customers the buy in that segment. they love this proposition of mercedes high tech meets luxury. and now we have here, high tech meets luxury in a 0 mission battery electric vehicle e q. s is the 1st merck to feature

a carbon neutral battery from energy sourcing to production and reduce the aim is minimizing emissions and maximizing those green credentials will be each us bring about a long overdue image. change for the car maker. we're going to pick up speed and i think through technology, we have a tremendous opportunity in the next decades to significantly lower the c o 2 burden on the planet. the mercedes e q. s is due to hit the market in august. ah, prices in europe are expected to start. it's just under 100000 euros. ah, all the regions, major regents of the world are picking up speed in terms of adoption of electrification. especially in germany. we had a phenomenal 2nd half of 2020 and started with a bang with our battery electric vehicles earnings this year. we're up 50 percent

at $6600000000.00 euros from the 1st feedback that we have received from customers around the world. we're cautiously optimistic that this will be another hit will be e q, s really mark the dawn of a new era program this week. hope you had as much fun as we stay safe on and off the road and the next time the news. the news news, the news, the news

the news, the news ah. want to race, you know, water is never far away. water and well, what the people of old book made of it that's going to be becoming v for my tour of the city today. and it's always have a lot on my list and no tour would be complete without a trip to elks blogs,
