the dna molecules on has 28000000 different power blocks that they are peers and rivals with one daring goal to outsmart nature for a longer, healthier and fuller life. one of the most insightful discoveries in the history of mankind down the hatch, that more life starts may 28th on d, w. b. i am charlie martin on m hype to be the fest trans joy, the at the 24 hours of the month. c

we are living during the most extraordinary time in history of transport. we'll go pull the electric with red. the also a new bill that he showed lou. overcoming obstacles even if something is possible. you give it a guy, you get 100 percent. rather than took yourself out of it, connecting opposites. 220 kilowatts, easy enough to have some fun every once in a while, but not to consume too much power. on the other hand, county id 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 then you'd self confidence transform this transgender racing drivers, motors for career. i never thought in my while the screen i stand on the podium and

the more. and notice me that real me limits destroyed mobility, revolutionized all visible 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 me w, achieve that ambitious goal. let's ref, check the id 5 made the flight test 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 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 clive 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 will also have to take to count. where does the electricity come from?

was a made by renewable sources, then of course it will be good or was it maybe produced in some coal 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 an acoustic feed bag 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. 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 instantly 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. 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 roof line would make you think that he will 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 article is chunk volume is rated at

$549.00. liter is a 1561. with the backseat down, the 85 is available with different power towards 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 smaller engines, and 400000000 people. 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 drawer off 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 well, the cost like the c $40.00 recharge or let's say test last model. why? but i think 220 kilowatts 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 is that

you can see how long you will need to charge and how it 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, would not want to drive have non risk in one sitting. so you 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 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 $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 claims. this one has also gotten better alongside with some other things in the 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 and germany, stars 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 your on $53600.00 euros. if you

compare that to kiosk e. v sakes, it is around the same amount for the 1st time. the optional travel assist off is 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 press 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 cities

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 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 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 youtube. rev takes off that is sure to make you happy. visit our channel and subscribe to us on youtube slash

d. w. wrap. and now strap yourself in for a remarkable motor sports tail. but i figured out how it's gonna take my life, hulu. i'd say myself and merritt, i just realized, i don't even have any connection with breast stand back anymore. who is the point living? if you're not living is you going after we're treating 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 time 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 grew up feeling very limited because knowing that i was transgender from a young age, i never had any role models growing up. i'd never seen anyone like me doing anything the i spy 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 bay and doing 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 warned gender feel

that they are identifies a different gender and then they can actually physically transition and fill in 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 back then that the thinking was very much if you were a boy that feels that her girl you shouldn't want to climb trees and get dirty and tend your fight pilot are racing call, try if he should be playing with those. 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 containment 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've never actually been to race track and especially being in the paddock with all

the cars, being surrounded by, by the color. it's a very kind of intoxicating smell, being in that environment. capital r and an interest 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 from them on for 3 years running t 1001233 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 i year and a few diversity. i made up my mind. this is it. i'm going to try and do some, some racing myself put this puzzle to 5. was like a half finished project. ro cage had a 16 valve engine, but that was, it was like,

had 4 wheels, no tools on it was like, everything was stripped out of it, but it was something i could afford. the 1st thing i did actually was sprint a cobra. but nonetheless, i was there, i was saying, doing my sport on my own steam and that was great feeling all coming in that period 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 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 a point where i just couldn't even function. you know, i could barely get through the day i slept breaking down and 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 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. the i was terrified of confronting, and i looked at might sport and i just thought no one's going to accept me in that space. i'd never seen any l t b t key plus visibility. and because that was such a happy place for me, i couldn't bear the idea of that being turned around and being space where i didn't

feel 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 this honeymoon. charlie's family and friends convinced her not to give up andrea thing. 9 months into her medical transition, which involved hormones placement, had to be and surgery. she returned to her race track for the 1st time. working with the product was like scary thing can imagine. i had sat in my car, remember, sat my car in the car park to thinking well i'd have to do this. if i could just go home. the own f nice. fortunately. 7 or 8 of my close friends i raced with came over. so many name can be because, you know, there will be clean cart racing next year. we'll get see the. 1 live out, 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 the transition, charlie began attacking her motorsport goals with jean. you would figure in a new found confidence, things began looking up in her career. i pans for probably the hardest part of that experience. and i'm 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, 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 you boot up and it's like foam. let's go. do you in a day where do you like us? 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 brighten close record by 2 seconds or something which and how close terms is like a lot. i mean, i just whether or when it's, it's going to have experience and i have, you want to surprise me included like, why did that come from charlie's since may a japanese progress switching to focusing and racking up podiums in

a variety of cities. she even tied up would be m w, 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 lamar said 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 the call. i looked the calendar i could if i did, but it's the one race i looked i know is one word that popped out on me the more november 2017 thought. wow. 3 or endurance race in approach. type out the mom. of course not. the 24 hour cost is the beauty circuit, but nonetheless,

i never thought and my wife streams the i could stand on the podium at the mall and not 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, and i him, it's like you've got a train, you gotta keep going and try make this happen. and race that 24 hours long for real . whether i go 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 and facilitating more inclusive environments. where everybody 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 or so it's something that really makes charlie special when you brave you, you take risks. sometimes it doesn't go to where you want, but, but more often than not you, you like i cook a foster on the corner. i can, i can take that, that corner in 4th gear. i can't acquire 50 you. you just continually push the boundaries,

push your own limits of what's comfortable with what's cheaper, bowen and before long you have built courage. you build resilience, you build something very yeah. very real inside i think. 70 and charlie priest price. 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 a little time had to quit patient at the system. but i think you can say right now as like a good time. so yeah, i think 7 year we would fee 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 go, 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. so suddenly

you flip that around and you think, okay, but it is possible and i, and i've just proven i can do that. well, what else can i do? not keep looking ahead and always believe in the future, which is where we'll see you next time on rev. ah, with
