indo germans success story one to report an audi each on brings like to villages in india in need of phoenix rising from the attic be aptly named 2nd life batteries from the out. each runner used to light up streets and also power electric sewing machines in a small textile factory in india. a strong environmental impact and that is a significant social impact in the modules from within the audi. tron battery also help howard electric rickshaw that can you are charged with solar energy does it says via and based on difficulties shuffling. no,

i just want formula one world champion, niko los bag isn't lucy asked talk about the project and very keen on taking a test drive in the 500 kilogram ritual. with a 10 kilowatt hour battery. it has a range of up to 120 kilometers of all 3 of them figured efficiency corbin, my business quality or find madison private barbecue. that means that he gets on yom kippur items on food top on funds info. it gives them to be doing the pictures of the ellen, not even from an allow food on ven, begin to lose on content. and the all rich f, as in for this m. d. the $50000000.00 have by not each us. so vanden and exploited that they are and the reason impact. second life is esynthier vilerkin vans indeed, but he and i found his math and my id cards can look for auto. plaza is, is this the noise? and then no offense, hidden under the driver seat is an electric motor. and for battery modules,

they were once part of the battery in an audi e tron. dozens of these modules all grouped together in the cars, floorboard form the battery that supply power to the car. but when the batteries efficacy drops to around 75 percent, it's time for it to be replaced. the cells, however, still find use in other applications. for example, the modules from older e trans can power rickshaw for at least 7 years after the conversion takes place. that i gotta get a collaboration with the bavarian auto manufacture podium. chatter g developed the prototype for the 2nd life batteries from the audi. each wrought by the weather is allowed, some phase is from the rickshaw. i'll fire gas fun, that the, the lies don't complete my lung fight mom. up who, who can, that's what i filed by the he has

a ha and then after he's in front of he is the pay me whatever he doesn't back. my often flattened liam, my mom's i was not technician perspective of attractive to the thought of them about having beat up. i'm in that. come on. the other one does. she didn't read, read up on the food actually to unless though, the german born indian found to the new nom, start up with his business partner. tar schon. vito puncture who is based in bangalore, true in india. the company deals with the research and development of 2nd life batteries. for example, they converted to battery modules from the outer e tron into a portable battery and it brings light to parts of india. when the sun sets in many parts of india where electrification is not very advanced, life carries on in the dim glow of gas lamps. but new nom 2nd life battery also makes indian streets shine at night spaces,

stay open, longer merchants can continue to sell their wares. late into the night, they earn more money and their standard of living rises. ah. during the day, the 2nd life batteries are then recharged with solar panels. mm. thought a strong environmental impact and that is a significant social impact. so whenever you have electricity, you always have a usually a positive impact because people are able to do more. like in the case of these women tailors and karnataka, they can now. so they're closed with electric sewing machines, powered by they knew none. battery, which is innocence, a reborn luxury, s u v battery. and as their production capacity increases, so does their income. and the health improves to,

since they no longer have to work with machines that are powered by foot pedals. let go under the bucket of summer that are carmella benefit that the man oh no, i'm the death to get to know what i have to live a but it to walk out a month when i met quote in italy and problem me like a scant and i look at them because then that, that i the less of midland, what it but 5 the, it will not good it, but they the, the, i like i let it be from what be for last modified v. he wasn't already followed me . she had a lot of an air kills i. yes. started on a mark. what given an advocate, quickly the know how and the technology for the development of functioning 2nd life battery systems is still in its infancy. the research continues in new dumps 1st project and 2017 2nd life batteries were created from used laptop batteries. each individual battery sales 1st put through its paces. and then the

functional sales are assembled with a new battery management system to form a small, portable battery which can then help power the lights used by indian st vendors, for example, the project received funding from the audi foundation for the environment. the cooperation with the auto manufacture also helped give rise to the idea of building even larger and more powerful 2nd light batteries use modules from audi. e tron batteries. a start up in a large corporation joint forces to do good. no, not as the thought up stops are people which i have for regions which are innovative, which go into areas where we haven't been really up to the floor and did the concept. although you'd benefited as noon on research to see such areas and to work with them and meant to increase our innovative miss. this also help us to broaden the view small villages and bay people who are smiling, moving our business,

and the 2nd life become a real 1st life of for, for them, for those people. it was running to me. it's a project that transcends national and cultural borders. large battery modules from the out of each on transformed into 2nd life batteries that in turn, power electric, sewing machines in india and make the everyday work of indian women easier and also power electric rickshaws that can be recharged by solar energy and bring a particularly exotic driving experience the wind in the hair feeling of an open 3 wheeler from india to europe. lunch presentation of a shiny gong. i decided makes me that each member's writing to do and when i see she may lie somehow as a 2nd. i love her thanks. alice fernando, my finish cut me from when i cook and even though has been forced air, knows where to read a good hand puzzle. it's likely only

a matter of time before nicholas bag swaps the out of each on with which he has been cruising the streets of his home town of monaco for years for a new vehicle the rickshaw, the rebirth of the electric car, which in its 2nd life transforms into something even more sustainable if you want more red, 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. vintage classics and future tech or just some of the exciting content waiting for you to subscribe to us at youtube slash dw rep. and you'll always be up to speed. ah ah,

what is the says if he dimensions of the stuff with extreme then ellington, height law, many can of her official pieces are safe space i think is young me and you think of german engineering, german cars and the gentleman out to bon what you don't think of is the fact that like several out, the country is this one to has its share of problems like homelessness. but in typically dillman passion, it's the automobile to the rescue. they have is admired heineken plots in berlin to take a look at the berlin daughter will be a full crown or shower for women. it's a social project that travels through the city, providing homeless women with

a place to shower and feel safe. within a few minutes of the do mobiles, the arrival it already has visitors, lining up some women stop by the collect clothes in essential items. some have a chat with tabitha and ela. the social workers who operate the service and others use the opportunity to seek solace away from the street and finally pick a shower except of her lip to set us for her. undone and amuse up. this is extra for foreigners and on the silica mountain peaks rational guns, ellen dashed, toughest hustling in it. i was just such an unspoken as minister enough to fall. superstition canons of team come out and then lavish cup recluse. thank it's of us uses than counselors. please, if you are as

since the want to formed in time or the finish, really top. but there is another valuable purpose to do from a meal served during the coven 19 pandemic. it became a mobile vaccination center for berlin's homeless people. ah, the burning shower on wheels is about much more than just access to hygiene. it's also about actively going out into the city to find people who might not know how to access the help they need to get off the streets. providing them with this information is a critical part of tubby on ellers job. oh, my son submitted, ready found a note about afternoon and him and, and shopped out of any z again. would on anger board cars on tights as teams, canals of antagonistic native contact about of heightened curtain or the fact that homelessness exists in germany comes as a surprise to many. while exact numbers don't exist,

the german federal working group for homeless aid, estimated bet in 2018, nearly 680000 people across the country were homeless. figures that i believe to have drawn since. and current estimates indicate that 33 percent of all homeless people in germany are women or hern of office, or industrial cinema of test vasily. even above fact is the says there feel a mention of national author, liam. and. and yet though i informed him as the last last. com duffy gets cancelled out to the glenda for life in ratio 10 on a partnership plan. on an order i'm and buddha dropped, a good condition would earn hold off and fuck. so he should con kaiten order under the concave and he that so few and us to and then leave me middle right. a few can see vizier, flattened, fearless foot, sabbath net, so they arg owns on yet us anchored on tape at pacific coast loveday, lizzie,

my right had read was than spieth if i tell her. but instead of dorothy that off, for con, the german government is pledged to tackle the problem, the e miss to ensure homelessness is eradicated by 2030 and to make sure that every legs had been paid the roof over their heads. a personnel girl for danny here for you like me. and then she mr. arbiten gear. i missed from an old fed vixen yell and, and i know many cabinets will come the more by a shower and the services it offers are crucial part of the potentially hard journey. but it does have its limitations. the v begins, if you mention here, endorse will be monsieur mentioned then via mr. walker, we don't. bernice. the vocal neglect, reflect gather lung monster mentions even what i admire. went that vicinity. nish as assessment the peasant, past it is a person thought under. com was see right off emitted to harbor would unleash or,

and that sat on much money on go besides dar bus. last assessment didn't mention pursuit despite it or there are silver linings. the students have job as this year of me, acting with my, my client id cards and psychic. my thoughts of us courses, pavilion cotton, as a do you than me for in florida, if i can get us feedback. but com and if allotted wishes, act as, as it's a best like it does, is issued of the shrewd as yahoo damn at them. and then says what was said of each class again con. while it isn't clear exactly how many women visit the facility in a thing where they had, there are times when the lions get quite long. in order to prevent booking appointments or hiding their guests along tab b i n l. i believe that a 2nd bush movil is the need of the hour. fortunately for them, wittiest miller, who funded the 1st duty moving project, is working on exactly that. the plan is to provide more people across berlin with

access to the facilities that they need. and the ability to live a life of dignity, proof that there is kindness in this word and that the automobile isn't always the menace to society. construction of deduce will be a 2 point. oh is well underway. the plan is for the completed viet camper van to hit berlin street and cater to homeless youth and children, by the end of theo, like the 1st more by a shower, it to has a focus on sustainability with solar panels to help by heating system. as for tabby in ela, well dan, looking forward to continuing to do the work they do and also driving another sas bennett to berlin. yeah. oh, the fun with smiles that they head off to another location in order for the dish movie to help the next lot of people with

the mercedes benz e q e is definitely among the battery electric vehicles with the biggest range right now on the market. but today it's not only about range, it's also about sporting this as we've had the am g version, the $53.00 formatting plus. and with that, welcome to the ref. jake and g is mercedes high performance unit renowned for their sporty, customized versions of more state mercedes model. talk about the technical data. the car will deliver up to $505.00 kilowatts in the maximum boost mode with the performance package, plus and only for a limited time. the base power off the car is $460.00 kilowatts, which is still pretty impressive at max. the car will have torque of 1000 newton meters to performing the dash from 0 to a 100 kilometers an hour in 3.3 seconds. as this is

a car in the middle to upper segment, the angie e q e features a range of different rightnow and come from, 08. there's what you're expected to do. it's a comfortable, right. no matter the surface, it's still an e class. so you of course have the right to expect that ah, if you then change tooth board or sport las mode, then you will definitely fear the difference. especially in the suspension of the car. it gets stiffer, you feel more of the bombs on the road. but what you also feel is the acceleration . it's check that all right. now this is simply crazy. le moment you push the paddle, it will shoot forward and push you back into the seed. just the exact moment you do

it, no matter how powerful the combustion engine car is while you're driving. if you press the gas pedal, it will always need some time to build up momentum and you can get used to it as a driver. not with that car electric car, you press it, it shoots forward, and it shoots yourself back into the seat. to set it apart from the regular e q e models and g added an adapted version of their typical empty grill. with vertical strength, aerodynamically optimized, we'll come to lower consumption. the thing i didn't like about the e q e and that didn't change with the am g version is the fact that the front is very roundish. of course they did this for optimized air resistance because 2 thirds of the energy a car needs is for cutting through the air. so better air resistance means less energy and thus more h e m g e key has rear wheel fearing making the almost 5 meter long

car more nimble than expected at lower fees and more stable at higher feet. the cur point is just over 2 and a half times the interior of the a. m g e q e. very clean. you have almost no buttons of course those at the steering wheel. but apart from that there is almost nothing talking about the steering wheel. it is the typical a m g steering wheel, but i don't really like it especially because of the wrong part here in the middle . it's way too big and way too round. then you have these touch buttons here at the steering wheel. i am not a friend of touch buttons, but i have to say those work pretty neat so i didn't do anything i didn't want to do once i used them. then you have the m b, u, x high per screen, which is also optional for the a. m g, 53 top version. but there you can adjust anything you would wish. for example,

settings found experience which were make the car sound different, you have orthodontic and performance, and you can adjust these in 3 different steps. the space in the back here is pretty decent. i mean, look at that leg room that's very much and the head room is quite good as well. of course, if you have a rather big then maybe you will hit your head at the side, but it's not that much. so even if you are way above one meter 90, you will just sit down little low and then you're good to go talking about sitting the seats are pretty comfortable. i have to say at the front and at the rear as well. the only thing that is not comfortable in the middle feed, i mean if i press into that will right here and compare it to that one. it is rather hard. so for people will be sitting quite comfortably. and one was the,

just like the regular you versions, the a m g has a 90.6 kilowatt hour battery at the bottom. and with that, the car make claims arrange off around 520 kilometers according to w l t p. in comparison, regular e q e, with the highest range will make up to 640 kilometers. of course, more powerful electric engines will use more electricity and decrease the re the right now we are at around 80 percent of energy left. and the call tells me the maximum i can go is around $3900.00 kil, on there. but it also tells me the minimum distance i will be able to go. and that i think is a pretty nice feature. 222 kilometers. i talk about the recuperation, there are 3 different levels and the maximum is strongly cooperation. and if i then

take my foot off the accelerator, the cow will break and it will break pretty strong, up to $260.00 kilowatts of recuperation are possible. and that way you will be able to drive the car in one pedal drive. though i have to add, if you want the car to stop completely and then you will have to break at the end because the car will not stop on its own. the why being in the range though, is the battled. do have lettering on them which says dollars or up. but if i press up, the recuperation will go down right now. i'm in no hurry, cooperation. and if i want more recuperation, then i need to press the left pedal which says down, and then it would give me higher recuperation. i don't know, right? the right one would be plus for shifting as well. so i would have expected it to go

like no echo variation, right? pedal plus laurie corporation plus again, even warrick operation, but it's just the other way around. take some getting used to and rather counter intuitive or maybe i just don't get it. the am g, e q, e, can feel its battery at up to $170.00 kilowatts per hour at fast charger. according to w l t p figure it takes 15 minutes to get enough power to go 180 kilometers in the in my final verdict on the new am g e q, e, 53 for medic plus driving this car is really a blast. i mean, you press the gas pedal, it presses you back into the seat. it's incredible. but of course all of that comes at a price and i'm not only talking about money, but also about range. and that somewhat defeats the purpose of an electric car, doesn't it?

you want to go the maximum distance possible and not the fastest way possible. don't use the base price for an am g, e q e. 53 formatting month is just under $110000.00 euros, and germany for that you will get a highly sporty electric vehicle that doesn't lack uncomfort. on the downside, it's looks are not for everyone. and the manual settings for recuperation. take a bit of getting use to hope you enjoy the ride. see you again on the next episode up, read the auto and mobility show a with
