ah, with 2 musicians who lived beneath the banner of the swastika from about the sounds of power and inspiring story of survival. thanks to music. fetch the cello player. well, i was the only one i'm super lucky. using under the swastika starts november 19th on d. w what i'm, you know, i'm, i don't, but i mean when i with that but they, maria, that okay, a form of i think what boy, you may have think about, you know, you go check out, boy go check alberto with

we are living during the most extraordinary time in history, transport hopefully electric with red. the auto and mobility show with this week read finds out how cubans keep their vintage cars running and what they mean to families lucky enough to possess what what is okay, but get on top of catch up. okay, and all that piece out of what would you like to and, and also it almost like also we're also looking at another car phenomenon. the pope mobiles. what makes the pontiff wheels so special? and why is the next one going to be electric? and we'll find out what a manual likes about the new opal, astro. and what really annoys in that little hamster drumming and all knows

mc pc bottle. so set your cruise control for another amazing right with rev ah hopes and that poke mobiles for more than 4 decades. the heads of the catholic church have been slowly moving through the crowds in specially designed vehicles. but paypal transport is moving into the 21st century. pope francis is trading in his current model for something completely new . he'll soon be doing his rounds in a new all electric car. californian company fisco will build it, especially modified version of its ocean s u v. we showed this guard to the pope an offer a job because, you know, he always have a big following and he's very interested in sustainability. so he really liked the

idea about a sustainable electric vehicle known for his gas guzzlers. this foray into the world of electric power is a leap of faith for the vatican. pious, the 11th was the 1st pope to take to for wales. and after that, the pope's usually went cruising in specially modified mercedes limousines pope john pole. the 2nd wanted something different though. he traveled more than his predecessors and wanted to get as close as possible to his flock. mercedes took on the challenge and built him a pipe the bail based on its g class. mercedes refined the design further and gave him a more advanced, more comfortable version of its m class. but other comic house also wanted a piece of the pie. among them, the italian manufacturer, luncheon polish truck makers star belt,

the biggest coat may be able to ever show for his holiness spanish. carmakers sat came up with the smallest and cadillac built, the most pimp tout paypal. right. every pope, my bill needs 3 things. a raised removable throne for his holiness, a special gearbox for slowly parading the pope through the streets and after an assassination attempt a bullet proof glass enclosed books. francis gave his blessings to the new design in an audience with henry fisco. the meeting confirmed fiscal faith in the project robbing it was an amazing event to be able to of course meet the pope and explain him the vehicle what we're doing. and he's very interested in sustainability and he was an engineer for me, it's about doing something in the world where you spread the message out to as many people as possible of getting electric and sustainable. henrich fisco is hard at

work integrating all of the posts requirements into the design with a fully vegan interior and solar panels on the roof. he claims it's the most sustainable vehicle in the world's building. a pope. my bill is a badge of honor for any comb maker. pope benedicts, the 16th had a fancy for the mercedes m class. volkswagen and b. m. w. tried to win him over with their own designs. but mercedes, both seated searcher laid on even more luxury retaining the loyalty of the german pope. benedict nearly went astray when renaud offered him an electric can do in 2012. but paypal body guards told him the diminutive car presented too much of a security risk. difficult to refuel this hydrogen powered toyota was also relegated to the paypal garage over security concerns. francis is not

a security conscious. once he ditched the pope my bill all together and climbed into the back of a little theat 500. turned in a show of solidarity with the poor. he once went for a ride in a run about from budget brand dutch air ever unconventional. frances, now once his next pope may be able to be built by fisco, a man who wants to reinvent the automobile. there's a huge market potential in the lower end of the market and i don't think it has to be a cheap little, ugly hatchback. i think we can make exciting vehicles as well. fisco can certainly do that. he designed as a date for b, m w, the d b 9 for aston martin pans. he used to work for electric car giant, tesla coming up with the design fritz sleek model. s. after a falling out with boss ella musk henrich fisco went his own way through the fisco ocean is his company's 1st mass produced car. and with 2 more electric vehicles in

the pipeline, pisca is taking aim at to tesla. with mask, he still has unfinished business. i don't think we can borrow silver thing. we're not here to kill anybody. we are not here to silly. pick a specific competitor. we like to invite anybody in to the fiscal family and have a fiscal vehicle wherever wants to join us. and now the pope is a member of that fiscal family. frances once turned down the gift of a tesla model. as for him, it just wasn't a car of the people. it's a feather in fiscal calf that the pontiff now wants to meet the masses in its ocean . s u v. the 1st old electric poke mobiles certainly won't be the last but twel fiscal, maintain it square on the paypal markets. oh well test it i guess

a piece of the pie. oh, could jim and comic his bills an electric vehicle that the pope wants to be seen in if you want more read, check out our youtube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture and about mobility around the world, breath can make you very happy. vintage classics and future tech or just some of the exciting content waiting for you. subscribe to us that you tube slash dw rep and you'll always be up to speed. it's finally there than you all pull astra. as you can tell, it doesn't have very much in common with its predecessor. and today we want to find

out what is new and how will it match its competitors in that segment. and with that, welcome to lower f j. it's been called the astro since 1991. but the model actually launched in 1936 as the open cadet. the general driving impression in the new astra is really pleasant. it is extremely silent in here, especially for a compact car. the reason for that is that they have a lemonade, it front window, and the side windows are laminated as well, and that way they will keep the noise outside. and i think you really feel that while driving. so i really enjoy the driving experience. you have in that car, not all the competition offered that. a standard engine. why? if you have quite the choice with the new astra, there is a 1.2 liter gasoline engine that comes in. 2 different power size is either 110

or 130 horsepower. and there is a $130.00 horse power one and a half the 2 diesel engine for those. busy that drive long distances quite regularly, but for those driving longer distances, they're also in the hybrid version. and that is a novelty in the astra. the plug in hybrid it is available with 2 different power output, either 180 horsepower that we're testing right now, or in a bigger version, 225 horsepower that will come later this year. and for those that don't want any combustion engine in that car, they'll have to wait until 2023. because then the astra will become available as of fully electric battery vehicles. the one of my highlights about the new after us, definitely the rear. i mean,

look at these realize they are very thin and reach very far into the trunk lid, talking about the trunk lid. that one is made from plastic and not from metal. that way you will save a lot of weight, and it's of course, easier to handle, at least that's what the designer say. and the 3rd breaking light is really nice as well. it's only very small. so compared to the usually you have these long lungs and that one is small. it reminds me of a sports car, off a race, colorado to say, i really like the trunk of the new york law. struck and fit between 422 and around 1340 leaders. the plugin hybrid version is 70 lead us below that simply because of the battery on the trunk. it as 12.4 kilowatt hours of energy. and that way you will be able to go around 60 kilometers purely electric. if you only drive in the city, then you can go then 75 according to

w l t p b w. gulf has over a 100 leaders less trunk space. by the way, this isn't the 1st time we're driving the new aster. a few months ago, we got to test out the pre production car and give opal engineers our feedback. during the validation drive, i had the impression that the steering was way too soft. you had no feedback from the road and i also told that to the guys from opal, and they said they will definitely take this into consideration when working on the final car. and now i can tell you they did. this plea is way better. you have contact with their own, you feel the resistance when you tried to steer and that's exactly what i would like from a car during the validation drive. i was not able to show you the interior. i

was not allowed. i had seen it. and now you can see it as well. this is what it looks like. i think it's really good looking. you have to 10 ins. this plays one is the instrument cluster, and the other one is the full payment system. you can optimally get those with some glass over them, which makes them look even more high quality, but they will not have bigger display. so those are standard in every astra version . and i really like that fact apart from that, you have the steering wheel with some buttons for the most important functions and some buttons right below the infotainment system. for the most important functions as well. for example, climate control, feed heating and feed cooling, which the astra also has as an option. you don't see that very often in the cloth and other functions as well. and i really liked that. so if you compare that, for example, to be w golf or say it's lay on, they don't have any but so anything you're looking for,

you need to find it in the infotainment system by the touch screen. and i'm not a friend of that. so very well done, open other competitors like audi and honda also kept the button being i mentioned during the validation drive that i didn't like was the sound of the indicator and back then i thought okay, this is like some testing sound that will change when the finished car comes onto the market. and guess what? the sound is still the same. it's a little less loud than it was in the test car, but it's still the same. it's not that little hamster drumming on those empty bottles. it is that much different from the sounds he usually he and other cars, but i guess after a while you will get used to it. what a car now de needs is of course i head up display and the straw has that. what i really like about it is not only does it look good, but it's also easy to operate,

so you can adjust it via the same button that you use to adjust your side mirrors. so if you mean that is quite intuitive and i in some of the founded when i looked at the button, so i like the idea of opa that not too high that i don't know behind the steering wheel or in some menu optional and tele locked l e, the pixel headlights enable the astra to shine light around corners without blinding. anyone. thanks to 100. 68 single l e d elements. the system also automatically dims the high beams who's thing that is really good about the hybrid astra. if you can preserve range, you can simply do that by the menu right here. you press save, and then you can choose either 1020, all the maximum kilometers. so for example,

if you're driving on the highway and you know, your trip is gone and in a zone where you're only allowed to drive purely electric and such, a zones will definitely come in the future and biggest cities. then you can simply preserve range and you will be fine just as with its predecessors. the new aster will also be available as a station wagon, the sports tour, as it's called, features the same engines as the standard astra. and will also be available as a purely electric model in 2023 billing the gap in the station wagon market. my final verdict on the new opal, austria 8, is the perfect car. if you ask, leave, a looks very good. it has a lot of new technical stuff inside and it also had a lot of amenities. and despite all of that, open managed to keep the price the same as with the predecessor, we're talking about 22500 euros in germany. and that is a very good price if you consider that an entry level of golf, for example,

will cost you at least $28500.00 euro ah and oh, i wonder when you are hello. hello. hi it, me. i'm a little longer ago. i had a simple problem. i had no way for you how to model them in india. when i go saw tanti based on if he got l mother burtchel, my daughter muffled in thing as a 40 gulf on model or did he not in gorge empty today? i thought all of them up here some more and more then not that your legacy already
