only l could eat with a toggle for danielle angelica reveal the answer to that question of close and personal with the stars your role max. in 30 minutes on d. w. every journey begins with the 1st step and every language with the 1st word college pinnacle. rico is in germany to learn german. why not learn with simple online on your mobile and free to shop. d w e learning course. nikos vague. german made easy. i am charlie martin. i am happy to be the 1st trans driver at the 24 hours of lamar. we are living during the most extraordinary time in history of transport.
1:31 am
we'll go pull the electric with my the government. rev b o 2, an ability show. lou, overcoming obstacles. you believe something is possible. you give it a guy, you get a 100 percent, rather than talk yourself out of it. connecting opposites. $220.00 kilowatts is enough to have some fun every once in a while, but not to consume too much power. on the other hand, kenny id 5 transform b w into the most sought after sustainable mobility, brant, i'm cold problem. it will get shortly and have a new self and renewed self confidence transform, ms. transgender, racing drivers, motors full career. i never thought in my wildest dreams, i could stand on the podium at the moment. and no me that really
1:32 am
limits destroyed nobility revolutionized all in this unmissable episode of ref, most desirable bread in sustainable mobility. this is what b w plans to become in the next years. today we take a look at the new id 5 to see whether it will help me w, achieve that ambitious goal. let's ref, check the id 5 made this like this to can pay version of the id for that. it also comes with a native id, software, $3.00, optimized for operation, comfort, and charting. the 1st thing we should talk about is what is sustainable mobility? of course, this has a wide variety of different aspects. so for the sake of time, we're just going to break it down to the most basic ideas. number one is the idea
1:33 am
that the vehicle should not produce more emissions than the ecosystem can regenerate. a battery electric vehicle starts with a rather high amount of c o 2 during the production a combustion engine car, on the other hand, will start with a comparatively low amount of c o 2. and then for each kilometer drives, it will slowly and steadily climb the battery electric vehicle, on the other hand will not emit any if you're too well driving. so it will stay on the same level. and at some point, during its life cycle, the battery electric vehicle will be on the same level as the combustion engine. and from then on it will be the better vehicle for the environment and much more sustainable. or of course, then you also have to take into account. where does the electricity come from? was it made by renewables?
1:34 am
horses then of course it will be good or was it may be produced in some cold factory. then of course, it is not another aspect of sustainable nobility is the use of recycled and recyclable material. the interior of the id 5 is free from animal product. just as all the other recent v w models, the 85 is left with the problem that it does not have any physical buttons in the interior. you have these touch points right here. they will give you are an acoustic feed back, but that's not the same. and the same goes for the climate control that's also touch. i'm not a friend of that. a problem in a lot of cars nowadays. the same here on the steering wheel. this is all basically touch operated
1:35 am
if you're looking, for example, to adjust the temperature, you will have to look what you're doing because from not looking at it, you will not feel the difference whether you're on plus or minus. you will have to look at it. that's why i prefer, for example, are turning up like you had it in the older ve w's or other cars. that way you will instant the fear. click, click, click, once you change the temperature. ah. but apart from that, the infotainment system is such operates very smoothly and it does exactly what it should do. what i wanted to do it, of course, features all the latest technology, android, auto, apple, carplay, everything you could wish for. so apart from the knobs nothing you could complain about in the interior of the id 5.
1:36 am
the space in the bag is definitely good. the seat is very far to the back. there is a lot of space at the front and i still have some space left back here. the head room is quite good as well, especially if you consider that the co pay like roofline would make you think that he would miss out on some space. but even if i tilt lie, had left to right, i don't touch the roof with my hair. so i guess even if you're one meter 9095, you can sit right here without having to worry to hit your head on the roof. depending on the specification packets, the center c panels can be trimmed with aunt villa and microfiber that includes recycled materials such as plastic bottles. the article is chunk volume is rated at $549.00. liter is a 1561. with the backseat down,
1:37 am
the 85 is available with different power outputs, ranging from 128 kilowatts to 220 kilowatts in the g t x version we're testing right now, the most powerful one, the sporty. one. all of these have the same battery pack, 77 kilowatt hours of usable energy that provides the range of 519 kilometers for the small engines, and $490.00 for the t t ax. dinner or driving impression in the id 5 g t x is very sporty. of course it's still around the high se, but you have the heavy battery in the floor of the car, which makes it hard to the asphalt. pretty good. and the acceleration where they, it's $220.00 kilowatt is a blast as well. of course they cannot
1:38 am
compete. well, the cars, like the see 40 recharge or let's say a test last model. why? i think 220 kilowatts is enough to have some fun every once in a while, but not to consume too much power. on the other hand, really i like to use google maps for my navigation, but there will not be the ideal way in this car because it has some quite interesting features considering re charging the battery. so let's say i want to go to berlin and it will tell me that some 720 kilometers and 2 stops. i need to make to recharge the car. they can see it entered charging stops. as you can tell because i won't make it with one chart. and what's interesting about these is that you can see how long you wouldn't need to charge and how it
1:39 am
will affect the battery. for example, 22 minutes of charging from 12 to 62 percent 22 minutes. that's. that's no problem at all. i mean with no one to drive 700 kilometers in one sitting . so you'd take a break anyway. and then why not cha, your call? ah, the good thing about using that is that the car knows when the battery will be charged, though it can prepare the battery for being charge and then it would be in an ideal state for charging, thus taking the maximum off energy in the least possible time the $85.00 can be charged with up to $135.00 kilowatts, 10 more than the audio full with the oldest software. that means you can save up to 9 minutes while charging from 5 to 80 percent less quickly. check out the voice control as b. w claims. this one has also gotten better alongside with some other things in
1:40 am
the car. navigate to berlin. the jelly i'm cold. and broken, it will get shortly. i have to say that works quite good, but i'm not exactly a friend of that. um i prefer doing things like adjusting the temperature myself with buttons prices for the new id 5 and germany start at around 46000 euros. for the 100 and 28th kilowatt version, the 150 killer. what engine is about a 1000 more? and the g d x version we're testing will cost. you're on 53600 euros. if you compare that to kiosk e. v sakes,
1:41 am
it is around the same amount. for the 1st time, the optional travel assist off his assistive lane, changing on highway, starting at 90 kilometers an hour. with park assist class with memory function, the vehicle is able to learn vigil parking the nieces and repeat them automatically at the price of a button in the ent, my final verdict on the u. v. w id 5, g t x, a very good looking car with some nice tech, a decent range and almost nothing that you can complain about. the price is okay as well. the only thing is it is rather big. so considering the idea of sustainable mobility, maybe a smaller car like the id 3 would be more helpful to keep the city's
1:42 am
cleaner because id 5 take more place than id threes. but as a shared ride for several people, it's a pretty darn solid car. the other fives updated software with partially autonomous driving and optimized charging was a good upgrade. on the downside, the puny touch or voice operated interior is not for everyone. so are you charged and ready for all things e, mobility and visit our youtube channel, where we really put the read in revolution? read discusses everything automotive and the new mobility rel, comes alive on youtube. rev takes off that is sure to make you happy. visit our channel and subscribe to us on youtube flash, dw, rep, and now strap yourself in for
1:43 am
a remarkable motor sports tail. but i figured out how it's gonna take my life. i've seen myself in the merrit, i just realized i don't even have any connection with the press stand back anymore . who was the point living? if you're not living as you growing up, there were 3 things that charlie martin was convinced of the 1st that she was trans and didn't identify as meal the gender. she'd been assigned in both. the 2nd, the place she felt most at home was the race track, the 3rd that she'd never be able to reconcile these to world. i am charlie martin, i'm a professional racing driver. i'm in l g b t, t plus activist. i'm hoping to be the 1st trans driver at the 24 hours of lamar. i grow, not feeling very limited because knowing that i was transgender from
1:44 am
a young age, i never had any role models growing up. i'd never seen anyone like me doing anything. the i spied today and that had the effect of making me feel very limited in terms of my life options. it was like you have to choose between being the person you want to be doing the things, career wise and so on and so on. that you want to have in your life, you can't have both those things. so i just, i didn't feel like his dreams reality. and a huge chasm between most he thinks there's 2 outcomes. carolyn, cause he was the 1st person that i discovered he was transgender, and i up until that point i didn't realize people could be born as one gender feel that they are i identifies as different gender and then they can actually
1:45 am
physically transition and and so, and so on. so when i saw her, it was like someone telling me the world isn't flat, you know, i can have really a real eureka moment in my life. and i think back then that the, the thinking was very much, the fewer boy that feels our girl. he shouldn't want to climb trees and get dirty and tenure fight pilot or racing, cartwright. he should be playing with dolls and, and so on and so on. i this was in that kind of kid. why no, he was about 89 years old. i had friends called hamish and his dad used to race, not professionally, but um, you know, very competitively at club level. and he said, yeah, you know, we're going racing if you'd come, i'd never actually been to racetrack and especially being in the paddock with all
1:46 am
the cause being surrounded by, by of these causes very here. it's a very kind of intoxicating smell. being in that environment. you know, the caster lauren and just to the noise and do something about it. they just yeah. just let a real spark of enthusiasm in me. and then my brother and i went to lamon for 3 years, running 20012 and 3. the 3 years that bentley competed and eventually won. and that was yeah, i mean that was like nothing i'd ever seen. i said, year le steve. see, i made up my mind. this is it. i'm going to 20 some, some racing myself, but as persia to fife was like a half finished project at ro cage had a 60 bow van jane. but that was, it was light at 4 wheels at night. doors on a,
1:47 am
it was all like with everything was stripped out of it, but it was something i could afford. a 1st thing i did out, she was a sprint, a cobra. but nonetheless, i was there. i was can p saying does doing my to sport on my own stage. and that was a great feeling ah, coming in stop period does when i started to struggle. very struggle with my my gender identity and i wake up in the morning and see myself in the mirror and i just realized, yeah, i don't even have any connection with the person staring back at me anymore. at nothing in my life really matter to me anymore. because it's just like, well, what's the point in living? you're not living with you. i figured out how it's gonna take my life and i couldn't, i, you know, i was at
1:48 am
a point where i just couldn't even function. you know, i could barely get through the day of that, slept breakdown and i thought to myself, this is this wrong. i can't do this. and that was january 2012 that i, i decided, okay, this is it. i'm going to transition a say transition was the thing that i wanted most in my life. and yet at the same time, it was the scariest thing could imagine. it was this, you know, it was like this huge mountain that i was terrified of confronting. and my sport, and i just thought no one's gonna accept me in that space. i'd never seen any l t t keep off disability. and because that was that you have to place me. i couldn't bear the idea of that being turned around and being space where i didn't feel
1:49 am
welcome and i felt rejected. and so i just thought, well, i'd just give up. you know, i don't, i don't want to send them. charlie's family and friends convinced her not to give up when dressing 9 months into her medical transition, which involved hormone d placement had to be in surgery. she had done to a race track for the 1st time. wharton potter was like scary thing and could imagine. i had sat in my car, amanda sat my car in the car park to thinking, well i'd have to do this if i could just go home. no one never knows. fortunately, 7 or 8 of my close friends i raced with came over. so many, ne, can we pick hog, you know, there were like, equally about racing next year where you could see the love. i felt my gesture was a really profound thing. it made a massive impact. in fact, they hadn't done that. i wouldn't go back the next year, 2 years into a transition,
1:50 am
charlie began attacking her motorsport goals with renewed vigor and a new found confidence. things began looking up in her career. i pans for probably the hardest part of that experience, and i starting to find confidence and self belief that i'd never 9 and my whole life. and i think that had a huge impact. not just on racing, but on so many levels on just how you think of function. i think a big part of me was kind of locked up inside. but living in denial, what is living in denial? it's using physical energy to suppress a major part of your personality. a really intrinsic part of who you are as a person. when when you do that, you're using physical entities. it's tiring,
1:51 am
it's mentally heating. it's like having a computer said it's really old and slow and you install a new operating system and you boot up and it's like foam. let's go good. you wanna dig where you live? that's what it felt like to me. i went to fonts, i did it around the french hill climb championship and i 1.3 seconds and i break the close record by 2 seconds, which in her class turns is it's like a lot. i mean, i just weather when it's, it's going to have experience and have you, wilma, surprise, me included like, where did that come from? charlie? since may a jap, in progress switching to focusing and racking up podiums in a variety of cities. she even tied up would be m w,
1:52 am
and made history as the 1st trans competitor at the no buggering $24.00 finishing forth in class. but her burning ambition is to become the 1st transit thing driver at the 24 hours of the mall. so 2017 was my last year hill climbing and at the end of that year there was a within the, within the team structure, there was the opportunity to do an endurance race in that call. i looked the callan derek. if i had the budget, the one race and i looked, i lost one word that popped out on me. the mon, november 2017 thought. wow. 3 or endurance race in a prototype at the barn. of course, not the 24 hour course, just the beauty circuit, but nonetheless i never thought and my wife streams the i can stand on the podium at the mall and not
1:53 am
just, not just me, but real me. and i just remember thinking, please, you know, if i can, if i can do this, i can get this fall. then that's like her. it's like a sign. it's like, you know him. it's like you've got a coin, you gotta keep going and try and make this happen. and raised the 24 hours long for real. whether i got on the podium or not another thing, in addition to her using ambitions, which includes competing in the 2022 lamborghini, supernatural feel cds. charlie is an l g, b, d, q, plus activist. she uses her platform to fight for diversity and more dis, board and the word in this life i want to help other people find the happiness that i found. and and i also want other people to understand the role they can play in facilitating more inclusive environments. where everybody
1:54 am
can be the true authentic self. people like charlie being in the media and just doing their thing in itself is just incredibly powerful because it shows people that you can actually you can achieve anything despite all the obstacles they have to go through. i think, you know, be racing drivers is difficult enough, let alone being a woman and being trans on top of that as well. so i know it's a very male dominated industry. so charlie's got a lot of things almost against turbo. so it's something that really makes charlie special when you're brave you, you take risks. sometimes it doesn't go to where you want, but, but more often than not, you know, like i cook are foster on the corner. i can, i can take that, that corner in 4th gear. i can take a court 50 you, you just continually push the boundaries, push your own limits of what's comfortable with what's achievable and before long
1:55 am
you have the courage. you built resilience, you build something very young, very real inside. i think some of your charlie pretty surprised. i think 7 you her charlie was pretty happy because i never imagined that things would be the way they are now. so i think i feel like i've had to wait time patient assistant that i think you can say right now is like a good time. so yeah, i think 7 year me would be pretty happy like this. get me a big part of it is deleting a possibility. yeah. if you been, if something is possible you you give it a guy, you get a 100 percent rather than talk yourself out of it. say i do. he said this is impossible. i can't do that. this isn't for me, say suddenly flip that around and you think, okay, but it is possible and i,
1:56 am
i've just prove that i can do that will. what else can i do with keep looking ahead and always believe in the future, which is where we'll see you next time on rev ah, with
