ahmad show my suit. miss it and sama been logged in the terror for the kiddos murdered him for it. 911 the unheeded warning. in 45 minutes on d. w. these places in europe are smashing all the records. stepped into a bold adventure. it's the treasure map for modern globetrotters. discover some of you up to record breaking sites on google maps, youtube and now also in book form to day on rev b. o. so and mobility share the v w micro baths reborn, meet the electric id, bus, and race what you bring at the yankees, infinity

with an icon reloaded. that's the slogan. b, w has for its all new id, but the fully electric van is an homage to the old t one transporter or micro bus. from back in the day. and ever since the prototype was 1st displayed back in 2017, there's been plenty of buds surrounding it. reads the manual safer. put it to the test. the general driving impression in the i, the boss is absolutely need. the car is very silent. it is very comfortable and here you sit rather high and just like you did in the old t one of course you said higher than the t one because car simply have gotten bigger during the year. so that's no wonder the modern twist on the old micro bus comes with a 77 kilowatt hour battery, which is it

a range of up to 423 kilometers. how much of the swinging sixties and the original t one feeling is there in this new car driving the old t one was an adventure. it was allowed. the engine was way too small. it was under motorized. you would have a hard time accelerating. you need to shift, it was clunky, it was hopping around let's just say it had plenty of characters. of course, all of that makes the t one somewhat lovable. but you cannot do that in a modern car. people will say, what the hell are you trying to sell me right here? this is not a finished product, and that's why the id buzz is a very smooth bry. this, despite the fact that it doesn't come with adaptive suspension

w's 1st car type, one was better known as the b 2. and at some point during the production of the beater dutch importer saw that workers advil, spoke, used parts of the beagle to build their own platen by a makeshift plot than buying so to say, with pilots from the beetle. and he thought, if you put a box on to that chassis, you would have a neat little transporter, and that was the birth of the type to the t one. the 1st volkswagen transporter, tireless and always ready for action is how v w. describe the micro button if that and these were no empty promises because even today, countless t once still survive, cheerfully chugging along. t one and t 2 model sold like crazy. in europe, of course,

people like the idea of the vehicle and it could be used for almost anything. tire truck, ambulance delivery, vehicle taxi. you name it? ah, i, it's my thing is i can to deal with radical clapper and movies in the rushes. notice i don't think i'll be disclosed about that perfect human mention a decline, a factor and it could fit 8 adults without a problem with whether we will see the id, buzz, s pyre truck. it can be doubted. but what definitely will be seen is the id bus as delivery vehicle because it also exists in a cargo version. the id bus. cargo can fit up to 3900 leaders and

can accommodate a payload of 650 kilos. it can also tow up to a 1000 feelers, engine wise, just like the old t one. the id bars is real, we're driven. but it has more than 6 times the power of the old, which had around 30 horse power. the id bus comes with $200.00 and 4th power, $150.00 kilowatts always feels decently motorized. you will not have a problem that you had in the old t one. put in your wife, put in some friends and all the stuff you need for vacation. and then you will be really worried if you will make it up the hill. no problem with the id. but how fast can you get up that hill? the top speed of the id bus is tapped at a 145 kilometers per hour. putting the 2 cars next to each

other. the similarities will become apparent, of course the 2 tone colors and then the way the front shifts to the bottom. it's the same in both cars. of course this one is a little steeper, but they changed it. so this one is more like appealing and of course you have the big b w logo which you can also find right here. with on the side, you have these small windows between the window at the side and the window and the windscreen. and they have the same thing with this car right here. and those are only some of the things that those 2 cars have in common. and just like its predecessor, the id, burns has short overhangs which make it easily maneuverable. the thing that made the t one so successful was its feeling of freedom. you would simply get into your car and drive wherever you like. fuel tank's empty, fill it up at the gas station and get going again. no problem whatsoever. with the

id boss. however, it's not that easy. first of all, if your batteries empty, you get to find a charging station, which can also be a hassle in itself. and then you have to wait in an ideal state from 5 to 80 percent, it would charge in 30 minutes. but if it's not, it will take even longer. doesn't really sound like freedom to me. slits on the de pillar of the id buzz are reminiscent of the air intake mentor cool. the t ones engine. another thing that made a few one successful was it's price $5850.00 deutsch marks that was affordable at the time. if you put that into nowadays prices, they would be around $1718000.00 euros. and i would talk about the price of the id buzz more than 64000 years. so that's $3.00 to $4.00 times the price. and that is not exactly affordable for everyone.

while driving the t one, you had to do everything yourself shifting, adjusting the mirrors or adjusting the air flow of the windows. all of this can be done by the car and nowadays itself you can adjust the mirrors electrically. the car does need any shifting, since it's an electric car, the climate control, you can set it to auto and then it will do it for you. and it also has a bunch of assistance systems that will keep you in lane keep this says to the car in front of you will also help you overtaking on the autobahn. a can even park the car itself. so you do it one time. and then by the press, the button, the car can repeat that parking maneuver on its own. no matter how narrow your driveway is, if you can do it, the car can do it as well. you might, oh, might not be a friend of all of the help us, but they do really work at charm. personally,

i'm not that much of a fan of the car taking over that many decisions. but for all the people, it's definitely a helper and they will appreciate it for people that like driving assistance systems, the id buzz has more than 30 on offer. the id buzz will come on to european markets already this year. you as customers will have to wait until the 2024 because b w is currently working on a bigger a longer version of the id buzz that will then have 3 rows of seats. unlike the 2 rows, this car has right now, of course, the bigger version will also come to european markets. but the small version we have right here will not come on to u. s. markets, as it's simply not made for that. it's too small. with the length of 4.71 meters and a wheel base of almost 3 meters. the id buzz has plenty of space for passengers.

and the cars interior is made from recycled and recyclable materials. with an integrated sim card, the buzz is always on and can receive updates over the air at any time. ah, touch operated buttons on the steering wheel, our modern but requires some getting used to. storage is a synch plenty of notice and crannies scattered throughout the interior. even with all passengers on board, the 5 cedar has plenty of room for luggage. with the capacity of up to 1121. leaders behind the 2nd row of seats. just like the old t one with the rear seats bolted down, the buds can be used for camping, with a width of 1.2 meters between the wheel arches. there is room for

a decent sized bed to how much t one does the id been finally have. there are quite a few things that remind you of the t one. but there are also things that the id boss does completely different. so all in all a very neat called they will definitely find its friends and i'm excited to see how many of these v w will actually sell. the id. buzz is definitely an eye catcher and it's purely electric dr. frame makes it quite sustainable. on the downside, it doesn't transport as many people as the t one did. and it's definitely way more expensive than it's 4 runner back in the day. which in some ways makes it as much of a lifestyle choice as the micro bus once was for

4 days each summer, but then his turn of pedal has one of the wackiest matches suppose events around at the 750 dr. is going to head to head in the yeah, he's a race. what you bring event, i've been to will where the clunky of the call the best ah, leading up to raise competitors with the brakes need to convert junk into racing. gold like moss, to paint a you got in bus guy here who is preparing hot for the event. that one putting in a new transmission spoke to the associate that the finished co creation of hello is always full of good company and good cheer. we say it's a festival of motor sports. it's a lot of fun and it won't be as long as we've got the helmets on our heads that we're competitive, race drivers. but as soon as we take them off,

we're all friends, or we get together and shoot the breeze, cuz it's a really great atmosphere. but, ah, these john keeps being raised, might be highly tuned, but they're not running. legal even says they do need to meet the events safety standards, volunteers pitch in to prepare the race track. this is sandy stretches, have to be tapped down as smooth as possible. and teemer foyer, direct the work on the track. he knows that like the back of his hand from his own red cross experience, oil of white glove, that's actually all the corners are well suited to passing his bike. if another car leaves even just a little room on the inside of the corner, you should try to passage alec. a lot is install it right now. the tracks and pretty bad shape, but we'll fix it up with blow. that's what the trucks are here. 4th or does the follow cancel it out of them or that i got it

now you got invoiced because got his plunkett race ready. it might not look like much, but you guys driven this car in says he races so far. mm. automobile. but oh, i bought this car a few years ago and oh, lou at erase filess though, since then i've actually replaced almost everything in the car. the mom but looks can be deceiving when it would be bit often you have cars that look like total, reckless one out the door. but they might have 10 to 15000 years worth of equipment built into them. they get, they can go out a more loaded goodman and not in this one here. at least not for this race sell to say. but some cars are like that. go seagal december bill left. before the driver's head out onto the track, every machine has to pass a technical inspection. it's standard for all the yaki races. not only is the race

cars subjected to scrutiny, each drive is racing. kid is too on prison. oh, come on. come no middle with him, you'll have to, well, the piece of metal there. what do you want me to weld? notable the robot again, the total 8 d as the most important. that's the 1st thing we check want to validate the always comes 1st. at last. the big day has a dog 750 dr. is ready to dump the clutch and give it there all each individual and he had 7 cars against each other. the winning qualifies for the next round. somehow

risky all the yoke. he's really the woman and a lot of the race may look dangerous, but it isn't because we were an excellent protective gear. some crashes or collisions may look absolutely catastrophic goes yoga, but it's quite rare than a driver really get seriously injured. let me get some thought don't bob i you guys made it through the quantifying round but not to the final to the civic ellipticals in which i was driving the last part of the race. more for the fun of it, just because i knew i couldn't pass any one else. i can get back to you before the end. it was only about having fun. rob all made it got lose. that's how it is sometimes. but the car is performing great balls below a special feature of the event in palo is that once the 5 braces, the denazi's, i'll put up for sale. cash for plunk is a if you want more red check out to our youtube

channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture and about mobility around the world reads can making very happy vintage clinics and future tech. i just some of the exciting content to waiting for you subscribe to us that you cheats slash dw, read i. he'll always be up to speed what happens to e v batteries once they're too weak to power automobiles like us, s u, v. well, sometimes they get a 2nd shot at life and can light up and tire streets in india. usually they use between a 100 to 8275 percent, which is not very efficient. right? i mean, is like you have one little water water you drink happily to and you draw happily

though, because they could still supply electric rickshaws with power for a full 10 years or the so called 2nd life batteries. the key to new mobility, especially in india. with the electric mobility thinking center bit, bringing resorts, efficiency, input, batteries become a major factor after all, 2nd life batteries don't just protect the environment. there are also cost effective if i could reap up as batteries. i extend the usable life of back these after around a 100000 kilometers, batteries are usually 2 week to power electric and c. v's. they need to be changed . the floor boards of electric cars contain dozens of battery modules. and after their 1st life as the heart of an e. v. indo germans start up, newnan converts them into 2nd life batteries. and these portable batteries live out

the streets in india, german born and protein chastity, co founded new nam with darshawn bureau puck shot in bangalore. root the started up wondered, can batteries continue to be used in a 2nd life? usually their youth between a 100 to 8275 percent. that's where in the fall live people are usually using it. and between that 75 percent and 50 percent threshold, there is still in most cases, some usable energy which you can still use. but in, in the frost live application it doesn't get used, which is not very efficient. they started in 2017 with used laptop batteries. first, the batteries are dismantled, then each individual battery cell is tested to see how much energy can still hold. the functional cells are assembled into a small, portable battery which can become a valuable source of light for an indian st vendor. the project was funded by audi

and, and cooperation with the auto manufacturer. the idea of building larger and more powerful 2nd life batteries for the indian market arose a perfect way to reuse the modules from audi e tron batteries. the german automobile group has been working on battery recycling for a while. in fact, they're already being used to supply power to their production plant in ingle shot in bavaria. you can see a real car better if they come out of the car really like this. what do you pluck him and then put her in rota and then they are connected and can loosen and for the brit howdy is currently building a series of exclusive fast charging stations in germany dubbed charging hobbs in

order to have enough energy for these to operate around the clock, former audi e tron modules are used as buffer storage and the plan is for used audi batteries to help electrify entire regions in the sa hell zone in africa. together with the social enterprise, africa green tag, the automotive group is planning large solar networks that can store energy within 2nd life batteries. we can bring on mobility and electricity together, where people do have electricity at all their 1st time learned energy lot from a little generator from bought from funk power. but they also want to have energy at night. so then they've used used batteries to store the energy during the band and can use it at night. new names, batteries and india are also powered by the sun. they get their energy from solar panels at various distribution stations.

each battery is intimate, connected as these batteries are internet connected, we get unwanted notification at that end of life and pick up the batteries for recycling. while we also provide a new one as a replacement. in the end, the new nan batteries end up in a recycling plant in coal up put on at song ill india, the subsidiary of a south korean group that specializes in recycling. the batteries are broken down into their various components. the metallic waste is sold to mental dealers and the valuable black mass is sent to south korea for further processing. and some eel, india intends to work more closely with new now in the future. they want to make sure that the used e v. batteries are recycled and reused effectively,

but we are also planning to set up for the dismantling unit to noon. um, so there are from there looked really good can did, but he was able, angela, did he say liberal ment maryann. so arbitrary was able, they're gonna go to luna and whatever it is a global develop resistance angle. there's also a focus on sustainability in battery production. now got funny, a to cody is the head of the research center for energy storage at the indian institute of science in banga luda. he has been analyzing 2nd life batteries for a long time, pre purposing back fees. really cost me maybe about 10 percent of the cause of the recycling about the energy cost, the cost and the environment in terms of chemicals that would be used for recycling and, and the costs and the environment in terms of ways that comes out of recycling, batteries that take advantage of 2nd life batteries. they're more environmentally

friendly than new batteries and much cheaper. ah, if i can cut down the cost of storing it at the city to a common man, it probably will bring every single person in the country to have the same level of basic amenities that otherwise don't exist in some of the remote areas and, and bringing that the clarity is, is in itself a big social reform. i think after all, it's this sort of battery that helped solomon sell his wares late into the night on the outskirts of bank alluded by me for the benefit of this light is that things are brighter and this helps when i need to. we're having light makes my store look better alive. you had started at the tailor shop in shana holly. women can now so dresses with electric sewing machines. thanks to a new non battery they are faster and earn more money. so

a bit of electricity creates an economic upswing in a poor region, and it's that many, soon i'll open a small business at home, which for electric subbing machines, anti other women. i can work at home and also take care of my children that that would be great. yes, i really want to set up a business like that. and the big one kind of give me 2nd life batteries can have a huge social impact. this in addition to the effect they have on the environment because there are more and more heat cars on the streets. with the growing expeditions of electric mobility in india, guns option of bacteria that significantly increased the carbon footprint off battery production can be significantly reduced by the using them in states that he sold it in. brock, just creating batteries without infinitely mining out

resources from, from the planted is probably going to decide whether this is a sustainable solution or not. so i see the publishing as clock in portion of this ecosystem of electric vehicles and edification agenda. second life batteries. the solution for truly sustainable mobility. mo, tales of automotive, re baths and revivals from all over the world. next time on rad. ah, with ah,
