the w's crime fighters are back to africa. most successful radio drama series continues them all episodes are available online. and of course you can share and discuss on d, w, africa's facebook page, and other social media platforms, crime fighters, tune in now with who to destroy the parts of your trade. getting to work with impossible. it didn't foster i'm with in the winter months. india, they can they continue?

we are living during the most extraordinary time in the history of transport. we'll go pull the electric with reb, the auto and mobility show reb uncovers exactly what amount of russian raw materials go into your car. go via the doctor, doctor, feel that we your and then beyond i'm loyal in yacht when the black in the today's died gradyhealth and feel like she may rev analyzes what are the hottest trends in electro mobility right now. hello. and welcome from new york, where you can find the very best and future electric cars ref tests. what is this electric scotto capable of? this is the fastest golda ever book. so you can exaggerate out of

a corner like this. and have a lot of fun. but go up for a wild ride with rev. what is the b w gulf now in the 8th generation? and one of the best selling vehicles in europe got to do with the wool that russia has unleashed on ukraine hotel destroyed a big part of your trade. and as long as you take a russian product in the future, will be your mind. remember on that to try to achieve this is because we're my certainly the raw materials that are necessary to construct vehicles that are indirectly supporting futon india ethically. out today we pay many millions and billions of euro's to russia every year, your new job. and of course,

that helps to crop up these regimes. that to this diary out, you feel the human but how much russia is actually in my car? my, is china happy about this? and how will the global automotive market be affected by the war in ukraine? well, russia will materials make up just 5 percent of the cars value, but that 5 percent is absolutely crucial. full on board and tonics, catalytic converters and the electric car batteries that are ever more in demand in the shift from fossil fuel power, dependence on russian oil has been a hot topic for some time. and even hot topic for the automotive industry is what to do about raw materials from russia or water to market. yes, the raw materials issue is really problematic. carpeted was lung because russia is

actually very large raw material supplier order of important raw materials such as nickel and palladium. be meeker, it's not, it's not a lot you're in this respect, this will affect the industry very strongly water. their stock in midland hospice you the problem of palladium is also underestimated to we got ship without russian palladium, not a single combustion vehicle with pass and emissions test. the precious metal installed and the catalytic converter filters harmful exhaust gases from the air coming out of the exhaust. and the complex electronic systems in our cars are entirely dependent on a mass of micro chips. to produce these, you need me on gas from russia and ukraine. you're got me on present

a lot of problems in the future. we were talking about the chips which can no longer be produced properly because you really need neon gas for that kind of. i'm about to name doesn't even got this drug called doing the production of micro tips . information is laser edged on to his silicon plate. to operate the laser, you need me on gas without rush and nickel, much electric car production could run out of juice. nickel is a fundamental ingredient of high performance rechargeable car batteries. in germany, 40 percent of the nickel needed to make evie batteries comes from russian mines. liquor boxes, nickel is needed both for lithium, ion battery sales and for skill production for the relevant alloys by the government. the electron mobility bill might nickel and especially suit off to may so even before the ukraine will an average lithium i combat it contains 8 killers

of lithium, $35.00 of nic hope, 20 of manganese and 14 of cobalt. the fact that russian rule materials are so crucial is not just a moral problem for mattress. some experts are sounding the alarm because they fear the impact on the car making industry. if the raw materials get more expensive and if there is not enough material on the market, that the price will go up, i believe the cars will become more expensive in the near future. this problem is really, really huge, and it's worldwide. and if we don't have the nickel, we cannot manufacture the cars. and if we cannot manufacture the cars, we cannot sell them. so it's, it's a simple equation. we just have to close down the factories. and if we close out the factories, people to have jobs,

fuel prices are also going up steeply after all, russia is one of the largest oil expos his in the world. in order to open up new sources of oil, germany, economy, minister, all that havoc has traveled to the united arab emirates. and cotton is also considering going to indonesia, ethan, and also africa, to ensure the supply of materials go with my. i believe that in europe, in germany, the topic of raw material, supplies, or store and cooperation in the field of raw material supplies, actually been under estimated for far too long quicker. but that was a big strategic mistake. jazz is now becoming a parent, especially regarding competition with china, for example, a dry mix layer too. we're dealing with an authoritarian regime, realty evan. and there are also enormous risks, obviously in the m. o, in all my life, you can. in other words, even if rash as commodities trade with year came to

a standstill because of sanctions or a boycott, russian corporations could still easily ship their stock. china would doubtless be prepared to import russian rule materials and a reasonable price. that booming automotive industry also needs nickel and palladium, etc. not it's not good if china were to obtain these raw materials even more cheaply, say through russia, the preserve and suppliers from china would be operating at a lower cost level than european players. for example, a 5 year property, this would significantly strengthen the automotive industry in china. gina. and also remember that china is increasingly an exporter of electric cars to europe was i was not, and these vehicles could then be offered more cheaply than grins to got it under wouldn't be a good china be the big winner of this crisis in recent years,

the european automotive industry has also become heavily dependent on the world's most populous nation. now it's desperately looking around for solutions to its precarious and insecure supply chain. if you take a rama tierra's, sir, you can increase your expiration rate. that means to get more and more of that, russia is not the only source of nickel and palladium, but it's unclear if mine's in indonesia, finland, and some africa can simply ramp up their operations overnight. and you can go in recycling activities, which helps to reside with all of those things which are alter in some devices. the m w has been trying for some time to save rule materials through a kind of circular economy. it plans to provide up to 50 percent of the required nickel in battery production, 3 recycling. as i said,

you have the possibility to go in substituting processes. that means you used to use other materials ah, hampton east such as tessa. have long been reset that we cells that did not require nickel they had to be made from lithium, iron, and phosphate. the ls. these are all big investments, long term investments. if you can't do that over an act panama, this is a task or years given that sometimes decades of govwin, jagow kind by sick fun yachts. if we ask problems are we, we will have problems if the war continues. i don't know if the automotive industry can really solve the crisis. stopping the war is the only, let's say, major option that we, that we have ah,

as for all the motorists causing a struggle between their conscience and they want it, there is an alternative to waiting for an end to rushes warren ukraine. good. come on alba to live in the short term. you could consider making the, our journey by bicycle instead of my car. it's the 2nd, this is the best way to drive out to father that a ball would be it means using less fossil fuels length. so in the longer term, this is also an ecological step, dominate, understood man, and one that neither supports proteins regime the she ignore the dictators and authoritarian regimes in the middle east. or when i'll go with a, she met him non or to cycle passed gas stations way autocratic regimes, off of their business with fossil fuels to free your cell with your own power from

russian raw materials, suppliers. surely those are good arguments for leaving the car in the garage like change. su bees have been all the rage and recent years. scotto has also recognized the trend and decided to launch a new purely electric s u v. hi guys, welcome to italy. today i'm in the tuscany together with scada to test the all new and all electric any i could p r s i v. the che say this is the fastest scada ever built. but is it really? i'm going to find out today the abbreviation r s as a long tradition at scotto and stands for rally sport. since 2000 sco to has been

labeling, it's particularly powerful production cars with it. regardless of whether diesel plugin, hybrid or petrol engine with its electric drive, the latest r s and yahoo pay fits in well with a diverse dr. variance of r s models. so let's talk about the driving and after say, 299 horsepower and 416. you meters of talk a pretty solid numbers for an electric as you eat. and you can really feel it if you hit the exhilarates her how the 299 horsepower are working in that the lot of fun despite it's 2.3 ton weight, a sportier chassis and the intelligent power distribution of the all wheel drive. give enough traction to get the n yahoo pay r s i v going on the road. so

6.5 seconds from 0 to 10180 kilometers top speed, i have to say, it's not the most impressive numbers you get here. but they are not bad as well. let's go to n, your copay, r s i. b is powered by electric motors on the front and rear axles which together produce $220.00 kilowatts of power. so when you drive on a twisty road in italy, you can feel that the cars really much fun here. because when you hit the exhilarated, you get instant poa and instant torque, which a combustion engine will never give you. so you can exhilarates out of a corner like this and have a lot of fun. senior comes with all wheel drive as standard and has claimed range of 545 kilometers on a pool charge. and this rate is good. you can feel that the n yeah gets really,

really comfortable and smooth. but if there are some holes and bombs in the street, you can feel the 21 inch wheels working. and this is not that comfortable, i would say with the new co pay sco to hopes to continue the annual success story that was built on volkswagens m e b platform like the v w id 5 and the audi q for each transport back. but in terms of price, the junior, who pay our s i v is almost 4000 euros more than its sister model, the v w id 5 g t x. so let's talk about the design guys. and i have to say usually i'm not the biggest fan of her s u v as a copy. but i have to say this n jak really looks great to me. i think it looks futuristic with this metrics ellie, the headlights and the crystal phase as go what i call that. and i think the mum green also fits the car really well. so all in all i have to say the design is

pretty nice. the biggest difference between the r s and the normal and jak is that the trunk holds up to 570 leaders. 15 leaders less than the non co pay version. the cockpit is the same as the regular and yaks. the r s version stands out because of the r s, logos on the steering wheel, and seats, as well as green decorative stitching and piping so let's talk about the inside of the n jak a co p r as i b. and i have to say, i really like the big screen here and the materials they used. it's almost like icon tara leather, all over the place. then you got of caused a little bit of hot plastic on the doors as well. but i think for a car like 57000 euro, this is pretty perfect. in germany, the r s version of the n yahoo pay can be ordered from 57700 euros. you can choose between 2 options. the arist lounge for the r s suite design both come with the

aforementioned contrast stitching as well as decorative strips and carbon optics or these design elements are also clearly visible on the back seat. here in the bag, i have to say it's pretty comfortable. you got a lot of head room and a lot of nero, even though it's the smaller co pay than the normal and yet it's just a little less. but you don't even recognize that. ah, let's go to offers enough interior space. we're a family. and you can easily travel with it. of course, then you'd have to go easy on the accelerator. or you'll have to say good bye to the claimed range of 545 kilometers. so guys, what's my final verdict on the end?

yackel p r s. i v after say it makes a lot of fun driving here in italy, on this twisty roads. and you see that the electric s u v will perform pretty well here. all in all, i have to say it's this party a score on nowadays. but you can still improve it and some points to make it even quicker and spot you in the hello and welcome from new york, where you can find the very best in future electric cars and the latest technology around auto and mobility sector. raf got here to get you all the update to you cause it break me, you'll find a place host to another addition of the international author. so we have a, me a call make a vin fast. it's also here with its model line up and that are all purely electric

s, u v smaller or bigger. and one of these is the v f 8. and you cannot only take a look at it, but you can also drive it on the test track. the ab test track of his test drive to anyone willing to wait in line. a number of manufacturers have got at least one of the cars here. right now we're sitting in the vin fast b f 8 and get to take it for, for a spin with me as jeff i, jeff, jeff is going to be the driver and he's also going to tell us a little bit about the car. jeff, the v f 8, the 1st call when fast. yes, 1st car offered in the united states, available to consumers direct to consumers actually. so no, no dealer system for vin, fast horsepower, starting at around $260.00 horsepower. going into the 3 hundreds depending on which battery you get. also the range starting at around $250.00 to $60.00, going into the 3 hundreds as well. 3 different dr. mounds. you've got the eco

comfort and sport. so kinda tailor, how do you want to drive region capabilities that are adjustable with a low and a standard region? so standard is rather high, i guess. yeah, standard is going to be more aggressive when i do this course around here. i have it in standard right now, and i don't even need to touch the break. i can lift off the throttle, car actually slows down, recuperate some of that energy spent. so in fact, the cars got almost everything you could wish for. if you buy an electric car. let's talk about the price. so $41000.00 starting price. mr. p. there's also a battery lease. so when you buy a vehicle through vin, fast, you're actually going to lease the battery through them. and that'll kind of alleviate some of the, the kind of anxiousness people have about the batteries in about owning the battery and having to replace it at a certain point. so vin fast is going to allow people to at least the battery. so

they don't have to own it. so if anything goes wrong with the battery, vin fast is going to take care of it and you'll get a new one, correct? you'll get a new one. this is also penal freeney design interior. so little bit of a european italian flare to a nice place to sit 15.6 inch standard touch screen on all trim levels. so it's not like you're going to get, you know, a really small touch screen. you're going to get this 15.6. really nice touch screen with every, every terminal's. yeah. very. who are an all american market? it's pretty important for toyota. and you can see that by the size of their stand here, the new york all to show you can see all the models, the complete range from compact call such as the corolla, over a to see, to sports costs like g, r a, supra, not too big s u v and pick up like the tundra, who's your that was among the 1st

manufacturers to bring hybrid cars into mass production and they did this very successfully. but when it came to purely electric cars, they somewhat slept. and now they bring their 1st purely electric called the be that for eggs, it features a 71.4 kilowatt hour battery and offers the range of around 450 kilometers according to w l t p, which is pretty solid. the car looks pretty good if you ask me and it will be avail with different power outputs. starting with the 200 force paula base version that will make the dash from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour in 8.4 seconds. but all versions will only go up to maximum speed of 160 kilometers an hour, just like a lot of other competitors do in that segment. electric vehicles does have in d. e b has a car called the indy one, made exclusively for the north american market. it comes with a 75 kilowatt hour battery and a range at around 370 kilometers. it's starting price is at $41300.00 euro

here presents the all new with 2023 year old on the lining the brands ambitions for electrification. the car will be available as a hybrid, a plugin hybrid. and in a purely electric version, the car is 6 centimeters long and then the predecessor and that should provide more space for passengers and luggage. and i'll check that out in a 2nd. the new e v comes with a $64.00 killer. what our battery allowing for a range of more than 400 kilometers the space in the bag right here is pretty decent. if you consider this is a compact car, you can see this right here. there is quite a bit of space left. the head room is okay as well. of course the c pillar is pretty huge. so if you sit back, you are not going to look out from that one. but apart from that really nothing.

you could complain about prices who the nero e. v started just under 40000 euros in germany and they had on real it's and you are 2023 palisade, the flagship model of the brand. and it has been updated as you can tell, not only by the looks, but also in the interior. for example, you will now have a heated 3rd row of seeds. sensor rear view mirror and then we're fully digital. we show you a picture of what's behind the car, so no more struction. and for example, it also is the 1st home they call the features a why fi hotspots? so whenever you take someone in your car, you can say, hey, you want some internet, then they will not have to serve on that plan. they can do it with your car. when it comes to engines, there is only one engine, and it is not a hybrid, nor a plugin hybrid. it is a regular 3.8 liter v 6 engine or on $290.00 horsepower. and that is probably also

the reason why this car is not available. for example, in germany in germany, the biggest that you can get and the flex model. there is the santa fe who's the hall huge. and since they're all less exhibited than they used to be, hum, they decided to make it stand bigger and incorporate. e v test trig. if you can tell ion a 5 doing the lapse right behind me to visit us, get to experience that car and talking about the ionic 5, it has been proclaimed while a car of the you ah, that's it. my time on the new york international all to show us slowly coming to an end. and i really found it interesting to see that there are so many test trig. obviously people are starting to get tired of seeing cars standing around and

manufacturers are seeing that and that's why they offer test drive and different cars in e v in jeep and i think it's a pretty neat idea to attract people drive safe and see you next time on rev ah, ah, with

who luxury hash in glamorous could judge of frances mediterranean coastline is now here. why is it so popular among international jets center? is it all down to the stunning theory? a jury duty is to reveal some clue the code does. yeah, 15 minutes on
