9:30 am
and a south, a mother is going to spend the rest of her life behind bars for murdering her 3 daughter. if you call me back, i really need help with . i see the site was part of psychosis isn't awful. illness. postpartum is a nasty mothers nightmare starts june 4th on d w. i. i'm charlie martin. i am hype to be the fest trans joy, the at the 24 hours of the month with we are living during the most extraordinary time in history of transport.
9:31 am
we'll go pull the electric with rev b o 2 and mobility show the overcoming obstacles. even if 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, i do 5 transform b w into the most sought after sustainable mobility, brant, i'm cold problem. it will get shortly. and can you self and renewed self confidence, transform this transgender, racing drivers, motors for career. i've every thought in my wildest dreams, i can stand on the podium them on a note me that real limits destroyed mobility
9:32 am
revolutionized for in this unmissable episode. of ref, the 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 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 the latest 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
9:33 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 a 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 thus more sustainable. or of course, then you will also have to take into account. where does the electricity come from? was it made by renewable? so this is then of course it will be good or was it may be produced in some cold
9:34 am
factory. then of course, it is not in the other 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 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.
9:35 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, a turning up like you had it in the older ve w's or other cars. that way you will insert 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.
9:36 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 copay, like roof line, would make you think that you would miss out on some space. but even if i tilt my head 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 id for his chunk volume is rated at $549.00. liter is
9:37 am
a 1561. with the backseat. down 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 a range of 519 kilometers for the smaller engines and 490 for the gts general driving impression in the id 5 g t. x is very sporty. of course it's still around the highest tv, but you have the heavy battery in the floor of the car, which makes it hard to the asphalt. pretty good. and the acceleration with its $220.00 kilowatt is a blast as well. ah, of course they cannot compete, will cause like,
9:38 am
see 40 recharge or let's say test last model. why? but i think 220 kilowatt. easy enough to have some fun every once in a while, but not to consume too much power. on the other hand, i usually like to use google maps for my navigation, but that would 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 because they can see it at a charging stops. as you can tell, because i won't make it with one charge. and what's interesting about these, if you can see how long you will need to charge and how it will affect the battery
9:39 am
. for example, 22 minutes of charging from 12 to 62 percent 22 minutes. that's. that's no problem at all. i mean, would not want to drive 700 kilometers in one sitting. so you take a break anyway. and then why not? 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 will be in an ideal state for charging, thus taking the maximum off energy in the least possible time, the adi 5 can be charged with up to $135.00 kilowatts, 10 more than the $84.00 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 we w glanced. this one has also gotten better alongside with some other things in the
9:40 am
car. navigate to berlin the jelly on cold in front and 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 in 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 d d x version we're testing will cost. you're on 53600 euros. if you compare that to kias e v sakes,
9:41 am
it is around the same amount. for the 1st time, the optional travel assist of his assistive lane changing on highway starting at 90 kilometers an hour. with barguss's 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. um . 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 cities
9:42 am
cleaner. because id fives, take more place than id threes. but as a shared ride for several people, it's a pretty darn solid car. the audi 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 than visit our youtube channel, where we really put the read in revolution? read discusses everything automotive and the new mobility i read comes alive on you to read, 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
9:43 am
a remarkable motor sports tail. but i figured out who's gonna take my life, hulu, i'd say myself and merritt, i just realized, i don't even have any connection with preston. stand back anymore. what's the point living shannon living? is you growing up there with cheating there? charlie martin was convinced of the 1st that she was trans and didn't identify his 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 2 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 up feeling very limited because knowing that i was transgender from
9:44 am
a young age, i never had any role models growing up. i've 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 these things. so i just, i didn't feel like his dreams reality. and a huge chasm between most he thinks is to outcomes. carolyn, cause he was the 1st person that i discovered here is transgender. and up until that point, i didn't realize people could be born. it's one gender, feel that identifies different gender and then they can actually physically
9:45 am
transition and so on and so on. so when i saw her it was like someone telling me the world in flat like you're really real eureka moment in my life. and i think that the thinking was very much if you were boy, that feels that her girl he shouldn't want to climb trees and get dirty and tend your fight pilot or racing called try if he should be playing with dolls and, and so on. and so on, i, this was not kind of kit when i was about a 1000000 years old, i had a friend container, and his dantes to race, not professionally, but you know, very competitively at club level. and he said, yeah, you know, we're going racing if you're calm, i'd never actually been to race track and especially being in the paddock with all
9:46 am
the cars, being surrounded by, by all these calls. it's a very kind of intoxicating smell, being in the environment, you know, the capital are and an interest in the noise and do something about it. but just yeah, just let a real spark of enthusiasm in me and then my brother and i went from the mon for 3 years running 200123, the 3 years the band competed eventually one and that with yeah, i mean that was like no think i'd have seen her now. i don't really know year and a few diversity. i made up my mind. this is it. i'm going to try and some, some racing myself to put this post to fife. was like a half finished project at ro cage had a 16 bow van jane. but that was, it was light out for wheels at night. doors on a, it was
9:47 am
a 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 is doing my to sports 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, i don't even have any connection with the person staring back at me anymore. at nothing in my life really matter to me any more because it's a slight will was the point you living, you're not living with you. i figured out how it's gonna take my life. and i could, i, you know, i was at
9:48 am
a point where i just couldn't even function. you know, i could barely get through the day i was at sled break down. um 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 se 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. the 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 is ability. and because that was such a hard place for me, i couldn't bear the idea of that being turned around and being space where i didn't
9:49 am
feel welcome and i felt rejected. and so i just thought, well, just give up, you know, i don't, i don't want to send him. charlie's family and friends convinced her not to give up and racing 9 months into her medical transition, which involved hormone replacement therapy and surgery. she returned to his truck for the 1st time, walking potter. it was like scary thing. imagine that my car, amanda sat, my car in the car park to thinking will i'd ask you to just go home the own f. nice . fortunately. 7 or 8 of my close fans i raced with came over. so many ne can be because, 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,
9:50 am
charlie began attacking her motorsport goals with renewed vigor and a new found confidence. things began looking up in her area. 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. no, just on racing, but on so many levels on just how you think in function. i think a big part of me was kind of locked up inside. like 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 you do that,
9:51 am
you're using physical entities. it's tiring. it's mentally keegan. it's like having a computer said it's really old and slow and you install a new operating system and it boots up and it's like, foamed, let's go. good. you, in a day where you like us, that's what it felt like to me. i went to fonts, i did it around to the french euclid championship and i 1.3 seconds and i brightened close record by 2 seconds or something, which is how client terms is like a lot. i mean, i just weather when it's, it's going to have experience. and i've, you, wilma surprised me included like where did that come from? charlie's since may adapted progress. switching to focusing and racking up podiums in a variety of cities. she even tied up would be m w,
9:52 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 trans facing driver at the 24 hours of lamar. 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 an opportunity to do an endurance race in that call. i looked the callan derek, if i did, but it's the one race. and i looked i know one word that popped out on me. the mon november 2017 thought. wow. 3 or endurance race in approach. type out the mon. of course not. the 24 hour cost is the beauty circuit, but nonetheless, i never thought and my wife streams die can stand on the podium at the mall and not
9:53 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 fail 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
9:54 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, being 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't acquiring 5th gear you. you just continually push the boundaries, push your own limits of what's comfortable with what's achievable and before long
9:55 am
you have built courage. built resilience. you build something very young, very real inside. i think 70 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 some time to quite patient this extent that i think even side right now is like a good time. so yeah, i think 7 year would be would be pretty happy lexus. get me a big part of it. is deleting a possibility? yeah. if you believe something is possible, you, you give it a guy, you get a 100 percent rather than talk yourself out of it. say, i always said this is impossible. i can't do this. this isn't for me. say suddenly flip that around and you think okay, is possible and i,
