but some things you just can't replicate. driving an electric travel is an entirely different experience for the ears. on it's a reliable comparison. we're doing 70 and the noise you hear is more the transmission than the car itself. out of the electric makeover is possible with any cheaper than to model not started out as a prototype in 2012 is now a standard package. the drivers can either do the conversion themselves, all have bad, do it. the 1st step is to got the vehicle orders for wired and now it's ready for the electric power train and all the gasoline engine parts no longer needed, have been removed and seen out of my while, the engine and attachments on the exhaustive, the original ignition they're all gone it and the fuel tank, and that's actually fitted up front and a turban to come. it's all gone down. awful 9. which brought up on that. so now we're ready to refitted as an electric car. i've to buy
11:34 pm
a car to appreciate what electric travis really means. it helps to look back at least germany's beloved and hated automobile. a bunch did feel the trip on came from a state car makers accelerating and spick out and was built there till the end is to let's give out the 1st tabby road of the assembly line. on november the 7th. 1957 fires typically faced a 10 year weight and a price tag equal to a year's wages. it's body was made of plastic fiber composite resin due to steel shortages. the tabby was also a manifestation of the shortages that typified east germany economy. in german trouble, it means companion or satellites. inspired by the soviet sputnik, the world's 1st artificial satellite launched into obit that same year shortened tabby. the car became the companion of east germans for generations. that's where
11:35 pm
the alice commit was used for everything, making out making babies, people slept in the law, camped out in them, and covered big distances in them. so as long as they had enough spare parts with them videos that style monmouth, how do i real hm. when people came back from a trip, the 1st question was not how was the vacation, but did the car hold our had sound? you'd sometimes see alternators discarded on the side of the autobahn list. machine did a home log and the most savvy tribe drive is always carried extra spark plugs and ny lawns. as a substitute fan belt, the car itself weighs in the just under $600.00 kilos. it's lightweight, makes it ideal for electric conversion as it needs less power to get it moving. for unclipped model, we fit a 12 kilowatt motors, which means it has the same output as the gasoline power turbaned from
11:36 pm
d. and it's really important for the vehicle licensing that we don't change the performance issue of fungus fun drop off on didn't fall as cold with done t antipathy. these are electric batteries stowed. we put in 30 or 60 depending on the range is little search too strict. i think about bell. i'm uses house trick here we see the heart of every e v. the battery pack on pipes, but he, i like the original shabby design. mateus bez electric conversion kit is no frills . just the batteries, charges and fuse books in the back. and the mysa up front visual angers of the eye and we wanted to retain the true bonds, simplicity and the whole. in other words, no complicated controls and electronics. and according on it to come, there are some different components in hub and as high. for example, here we have the main monitor class injury been in classic any car style. it has
11:37 pm
a battery display tag, which currently shows 100 percent arch bill. this particular d i y converted shavanne to is almost ready mathias bag gives the added parts and general set up a check before passing it on to the official tests and we're done good. now the car can go up to the inspectors of num. unplugged and ready to roll, the only thing holding back owners of a he, travis is battery range. in the old days tribe drive is faced a different kind of limit to the amazement thanks to the cold war. oh, of oliver kind to boy. they never really were a symbol of freedom. i think there was no freedom came in 1989 when the wall came down and latravius drove across into the west in oil synth. all that was freedom or
11:38 pm
is high really, they were a symbol of them is management. so centralized economy and material shortages, martinsville trust, the fool if the wool meant the end of the tragedy to their wits, he is among the workers at the saxon ring factory. as the last of the 3000000 units rolled off, the production line in 1991, travis would become increasingly rare in we unified germany before then. nostalgic . come back up on it. hurry the irish. they did now got a passionate fan base. i guess it just them and they're even considered a financial investment as we help unlock the they've practically become vintage model is fine. lots of fans are fixing them up to look better than when 1st bill irish knows that that definitely gets the emotions going to affect shawn and return of hidden fog. there are still around 38000 tribe ease in we had and wonderful varieties in germany today with a growing share of electric editions as close to misfortune. as

a people make the wrong equation, that a simple car means low price shot is unfortunately not to be a little 5. that is because of the high quality lithium batteries we installed that are now standard in modern cars. each property and i'm strong and that's the cheap price factor. of course, that is not the list from the hub price compound, enter it costs 22000 euros for the d i. wine kit, or 27000. plus to have a car converted by the city sex team. the exotic appeal of the cars is even lead to the gross of try be safaris in berlin, where tourists can cruise around the classic sites of the been jungle. and now of course there are electric additions to it it's a, it's cement you're driving this guy. oh, this is also with vincy with the rotor. busy the road is made on or not at all. so

ah, this is am jeez new c 43, a 408 horsepower c class. mercedes is seeking to establish itself as a more exclusive luxury brand. and the entry level a and b class models are being discontinued from 2026. so from then on, the c class will revert to being the brands smallest model. but how does the souped up see class available as a sedan or wagon fit into that luxury car strategy? is the c 43, a certified sports garn, or more in up market cargo carrier? it's predecessor was the 190 sedan,

a low price, mercedes will likely have to fork out at least $44000.00 euros based on today's prices for the c $180.00 coup, while mercedes promises luxury on 4 wheels. it's a m g 's job to provide exclusive visuals and power with a range of options fashioning the desired look. and they've added race car engineering to give the 4 cylinder engine the right kind of performance. with on paper the c 40 three's performance looks very impressive with its 2 liter 4 cylinder engine generating 408 horsepower. that's quite an achievement for a paltry 4 cylinders less impressive for the high c o. 2 emissions at more than

double the 20. 22 in standard hold. with the cars, boost functions drivers have 500 newton meters of torque available. that rockets the see 43 to 100 kilometers an hour in 4 point. 6 seconds. not bad for a 4 cylinder unit. lou. the secret behind that surprising power is a little electric turbo assistance courtesy of formula one. the all kinds of dots you involved, we wanted to make a highly efficient 4 cylinder engine with an output of, in this case, 300 kilowatts in. but with the agility of a larger units i devote,

we'll actually tete on his course. we'll make more toast dos. we look to our colleagues from formula on victim humans and they'd faced the very same conflict at the start of the hybrid era. the other few were cylinders, i lowered displacement and, and extremely high output exclaimed boy, last, the classic turbo charger needs exhaust energy that the turbine wheel transmits to the compressor from your book that gradually builds up was behind. but depending on the size can lead to a delay called turbo lag auto door click. this is where the motor comes in. come to, instead of waiting for the exhaust gas energy, or you can use it for instantaneous boost pressure. allotted will can, and you get feedback from the regular engine a lot sooner. which gives you a far more spontaneous and very linear response to the entire engine, which, montana, rosaline, i was under play for hud. and funny, because i'm any drawbacks fans of loud engines will find the sound experience
11:55 pm
a bit muted that might dampen their enthusiasm for the powerful performance of the high output. it's also a complaint often made about formula one cars of the hybrid era. the c $43.00 fuel economy is also nothing to get excited about. although careful drivers could squeeze 9 leaders for 100 kilometers out of it, which looks good compared to other high powered cars. this 40 station wagon can accommodate between 460 and 1480 leaders of cargo in line with a m g tradition. the black with hint of red interior is sporty looking. the seats have been reworked for better lateral support and stability, including on longer journeys. the steering wheel has an excessive array of controls
