we are living during the most extraordinary time in the history of transport. we'll go pull the electric rev the auto and mobility show. who is the bentley continental g t speed the best high performance luxury car on offer if you press down the gas pedal it will shoot for what can this e mobility start up. eas, nairobi air pollution problems. we kind of a blind eye to that contribution of chance, but based coupling emission is diabetes really no barrier to one's dakar? dreams and i will need the i'll get a lot more to him up and then we'll know what i'm going to get. of course i get off automotive tails big in small right now on red.
7:32 pm
hm . and any time i test a car for you guys, i 1st ask myself, what is special about it? what would be interesting for you? and sometimes but only sometimes the car itself is the special thing then you badly continental gt. speed and would that well come to the raft? check with me the continental g t speed always feels like some crazy scientist made a hybrid out of young arnold schwartzenegger and the roadrunner. mimi with
7:33 pm
the chorus gets such a wide and muscular body, which would make you think it's not fast. but then if you press down the guess paddle it will shoot for what, leaving the co yodi and everyone else bite the dust. and that's simply impressive, especially if you consider the weight of more than 2.2 tons ah ha, gets me every single i the car is equipped with a w 12 engine delivering 659 horse power regular continental g t is also available with the w 12 engine, but there it will only we have $635.00 horsepower,
7:34 pm
so they gave the speed version a little more. i mean, of course, you got to differ from those regular w 12 version. speed version makes the dash from 0 to 100 kilometers and our employee point 6 seconds. and this sound is really nice. i really like it. but i have to say if i had to choose i prefer the v 8. be curious to me, it's somewhat sounds a little more little more aggressive a little more. i don't, i don't know, i can't, can't describe it, but i prefer it. w 12. very nice. very powerful. no question. but the v 8, the sound is even better though it is of course less powerful. the 60 to
7:35 pm
engine is able to propel the call to a tough speed of 335 kilometers an hour. every time i drive a high performance car like this, part of me is having a fiesta. ah, and, and other part of me is silently dying inside me. why instead? of course i know cars with combustion engines with that much power. it also consume that much fuel and stuff are slowly dying out. ah, the british comic is now focusing on hybrid versions and from 2030. every new bentley model will be purely electric. the interior of the bentley continental gt.
7:36 pm
speed is not that different from other continental g t models. you have a speed lettering somewhere here on the seats and over there. of course you see right away, everything is super high quality, nice material. it's very nice teaching and everything is. yeah, very luxurious. just a good expected from a badly ah, what i do notice though, if there is a lot of chrome and i'm talking about a lot of chrome, i mean the car on the outside has a lot of chrome as well. but in the interior it's even worth what i do like though, if the fact that bentley has still some buttons for the most important functions right here. and even better for the climate control down here and for seed heating and the ventilation. because that's,
7:37 pm
that's not normal nowadays. often got cars. what are no buttons at all? and bent, they decided to keep those. and i really like that the soon. ah, the continental g t. s officially for cedar, as you can tell. but to be honest, the seat back here, they are not made for anyone to fit it, if ok, from the width. but if you put the feed back, then there will be no space that, ah, sime, impressed every single time i drive openly because the difference between, for example, comfort mode and then the more motif so huge, right now we're driving in comfort and it feels like you're driving your
7:38 pm
grandfather's car, that is keeping everything smooth and is really relaxed. but then you can switch to sport mode. you will instantly hear that by the sound and also be that once you press the gas pedal and the car becomes yeah, it becomes your cool uncle. call ridiculous. he's the one always having fun and being crazy in, in, in the instance the car fee, it's completely different. then i really like that. the seed is equipped with an electronic limited flip differential and active all wheel drive. as an option, you can get ceramic brakes, bol the continental g t speed, and those are the world's largest breaks in a series of production cost. $440.00 millimeters at the front. and bentley says, these are virtually phase prove, even after 10 heavy stops, the maximum additional distance, the brakes will need are around one meter,
7:39 pm
and that's virtually nothing shifting is done via an ac. feel such transmission. my time with the new badly continental g t speed is over the car itself. i really enjoyed it. things we should definitely not talk about is the price and the fuel consumption because otherwise, people all around the world will start to cry. i'm sad as well. get a leaf. you thought i left, but i'm going to tell you about the price. this car has a base price of 251300 years in germany. and if you add some options, like this car hairs, you will be very close 230-0000 carr. this is making me sad. never going to be able to afford such a car. the newest version of the bench, continental g
7:40 pm
t speed might be the last one of its kind. it is an incredibly sporty car with an extremely luxurious, comfortable ride, and a powerful sound. unfortunately, the price you have to pay to own $1.00 of these is prohibitive for almost every one every day. the same and kenya's capital nairobi tens of thousands of diesel fueled public transport vehicles, supply different routes through the city, emitting poisonous, exhaust gases and loss of noise. it's bad for the environment and it's bad for people's lungs to $20000.00. people die from air pollution in nairobi every year. but liners were serious, bass is different. after 20 years of driving diesel vehicles, linus was able to make the switch to electric thanks to
7:41 pm
a local electron mobility starter. and he already appreciate the difference from a driver's point of view. these know a lot of expenses in these bus like a diesel bus. for example, i used to do a, a service every month. this one, you don't do any service. ah, the driving is also different. as you can see, there's no glass on her. yeah, so it's a very smooth driving on paris what be the vehicle? the company providing linus with the bus is bus. he go. it launched operations in nairobi and late 2021 and hopes to expand and transport public transport across east africa in the near future. i think we had that time where we can no longer
7:42 pm
than a blind eye to the contribution of transport based carbon emissions tool that environment . and it's definitely a great time for bussey good to take the lives in providing alternative solutions to ensure that but at least public transportation shipped from the use of fossil fuels to clean energy. the company is operating to chinese made for you id electric glasses. as the fleet expands p amos to assemble the next vehicles in kenya, each boss can cover a total of 250 kilometers on a full battery, which takes up to 4 hours to charge. the company buys each bus for about $39000.00 euros. it then sells them 2 operators for the same price as the diesel bus and charges a use based subscription fee. this covers cause such as leasing the battery nightly charging as well has service and maintenance though with regards
7:43 pm
to if they are gone out for service on maintenance. no by think or has all that bland. what would like our drivers and the different operators to do is come pick the buses and just drive and enjoy the drive and leave the maintenance to buffy go . but they go, has currently trained a team of well, but engineers that know how to handle high voltage systems that know how to handle that different mechanical systems for their electric buses. so, but the goal currently is that the only provider of tabitha maintenance for these, this is in a, in partnership with you. id the idea is that operates his concludes profitability through the reduced fuel expenses and maintenance costs of electric classes. anthony bus is not a smoother to drive and less tiring for the drive is nairobi. passengers who i used his smoking, noisy, my talk to this as they're known locally. really notice the difference with
7:44 pm
a new clean bus beyond the free, why fi and cell phone charging point? any miranda was that one. this is the 1st time i've ordered the spotlights, and it's a bus that provides so many services that others cannot provide. but ya, some you feel relaxed inside one and there is no noise. it's a nice bus, not gillilan. regarding him, jordan. passengers are paying the same level affairs from now, but this is hope to go down when operators get a clearer idea of the new running costs. classical hooks to increase its police of electric buses to 1000 in the next 5 years. crossing the finish line at the decor rally was always
7:45 pm
a dream for daniel alberto. but as the 1st diabetic to compete in the event, the journey was harder than usual and his path was strewn with obstacles. yet every day i crossed the finish line is dedicated to old diabetics daniel is a complete motorhead, but at the age of 8, he was diagnosed with type one diabetes, a condition that was misunderstood at the time. i know i value my parents wouldn't let me go out. so do sports in school. i sat in a chair because they told me sports isn't good for people with diabetes thought well today we know better, but it's very important to play sports. or if you start walking, you'll end up running. many people in the world have diabetes. we can do anything but just with more effort when worked well we can achieve anything that we want to pursue on on the mac, luge, and the last one will contain blocker there for long. yeah, ramos in 2007,
7:46 pm
the financial crisis and a personal tragedy pulled the rug out from under daniel's feet, a turning point in his life. he also went to the us of a lot. where did he thought i had a restaurant and i lost everything. i got the restaurant, my house, so we lost our son to go build. i think losing a child is the worst thing that happened to you. i mean, i think that's when i began to see life differently to consider another future. it changes your life. i mean, i either will call annual every year. i sat down to watch the doc, r rally, but when one, yes, someone asked on a tv show of if someone with diabetes could participate in the race may have. i mean, i quickly called a friend and i said, hey, look what i've seen on tv. ripple, he said, you're crazy. i'm like, how are you going to race the dachau me? i'm if i'm in the app, actually the docker help both me and my family to get out of that hole. i think when something like this happens to you, you need a reason to live, to get up every morning and to fight for what you want to is going for the last day in which i'm the what i mean over the weekend daniels wife mer to support it is the
7:47 pm
cartridge, even when it seemed impossible it be. he lives in our 1st we thought it was crazy that we could never make a. but after everything that happened, we needed to hold on to something to me via it was it was a challenge that we had to convince people to see that it can be done. but a glock in theory adequacy isn't with a. daniel hoped to be the 1st diabetic motorcycle rider to compete in the da car. but the organizers believe the event too dangerous for diabetic. daniel needed to fight hard to realize his dream. for the thing boy, north, even after 5 years and many races all over the world, we showed them that i could be in the dark r, with diabetes. i raced in the room, lena in 2019 and was the 1st diabetic. and finally, i became the 1st and the docket in the toughest race in the world. daniel, but in 2019, we couldn't finish it in 2020. we were back on it, but couldn't finish either. but in 2021. when we finally managed to cross the finish line and now in 2022, i want to be the 1st person with diabetes time want to cross the finish line in
7:48 pm
a car when the amended the bono. and with that, i mean that anguish before leaving for saudi arabia. daniel train hard at valencia in order to be ready for the race. he was guided by a rougher old siena, who has trained some of the world's best motors board athens. yet but on my most demanding res, so we have to focus a lot on nutrition and energy expenditure because the same food doesn't work for diabetics. but from the i think that's what it is at all assembly. that on these project helps us because there's not much research about how to manage diabetes in high performance sport. yeah. but we want to spread this data. so all diabetic athletes have the information. just preparing for tech cars and mammoth task, which takes a whole year, daniel needed to find funding for his de carr dreams and get the car competition ready. arlene thought he is it because the budget for the last year and it's crazy
