when you have valley started broadway already out there looking for the latest trends in the automotive sector. welcome to read. this is how we this b m w can talk and changes color like a chameleon. the german car maker has brought quite a show to las vegas, the message, a new vision of intelligent, highly digitalized cars. the b m w i vision d as a concept car, but the technology is meant to go into mass production, a futuristic midsize sedan with a new pare down design language. the name d stand, her digital emotional experience, the next reality slider in combination with the advanced head up display in the digital high providing an immersive experience for the drivers

and impressive blend of the analog entered all worlds. last year, tony and honda have anal if a joint venture for electric cars and now we know the name of the brand, it's going to be hauled wheeler. and this is the 1st model, the a feel it easy. sedans still does not have an official name. and most technical details are still to be announced. but what we do know is that the car features some 45 cameras and sensors scattered inside and out. it will use technology from semiconductor company. qualcomm, including its snapdragon, digital chassis, is glad to come on to the market in 2025 to be shipped to customers in 2026 hunting motor and he had 0. 1 creative talent platform are showcasing 10 innovative startups. the comic her strategy is to nurture an ecosystem for creators. the start ups, profit from hun days, knowledge,

well 100 profits from fresh ideas and talent. it's not the 1st time the koreans have undertaken a project like this. in 2017, the group helped out a startup aiming to improve vehicle air quality. that technology is set to be introduced in all of its vehicles this year. well, manufacturers are walking away from autonomous mobility for individual vehicles. that is still working on these autonomous cars. not for individual people, but on the largest scale. so for public transportation, along with the reveal of the new version of its autonomous shuttle, german companies ab f has announced a partnership with mobility provider beep to bring the new generation autonomous level for shuttle to the us market. the previous generation shuttle is already in service on a public test track in the netherlands. unlike the new version, these vehicles need segregated lanes to help them operate safely. the advantage all versions haven't. com is that they don't need

a driver and can therefore operate 247, making transportation easily available in more rural areas. the inception concept is a glint, set the future design language. a push o models. based on to lanta says, s t l, a large platform. the car is 5 me this long, but just 1.34 meters tall. it uses $800.00 volt technology with a 100 kilowatt hour battery, offering up to 800 kilometers of range on a single charge. thanks to it's induction charging system, the battery can add up to 150 kilometers of range in just 5 minutes with summit up. and if he, if he as well, huge and i do not mean that in a positive way because i went away too much time with walking between the halls and also sitting in some losses to get to even more distant places just to get

a glimpse at almost everything i wanted to see, and it is your way too much. but the things i saw what very interesting economists thriving is not that big anymore as it was in the previous years. has it still has it in a different style? no more telling them of driving for individual calls for about to call public transportation instead. and i think that's a pretty neat idea. ah, i'm in bosnia herzegovina country. it would have pretty crazy about one very particular account with the goals and volkswagen, a number one choice for the, for the boise people. some people say the goals legendary status here was born during browsing this war of independence in the ninety's. but the story was back

for further than that, as i found out why is the goal so adored in bosnia and car napping for ransom? the husky with my journey begins at an old airfield near the city of tucson in the north east of the country. and on that middle, which is the fastest man in bosnia over 400 meters on the road, that is not the running track with that's the scary base. the fast, the golf and balls, they all my god with the golf mark to meticulously put together by i've done a tissue, it's treated with the tree point 6 liter pasano engine. and currently both some 840 horse power and a really me look directly with

non installed a new and his mission to set a new record of the next meet. but 1st the test one will show what are the cars potentially up to the task? ah, we scream from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 2 seconds, and there's no stopping us. a flat out hail mary, run with no seat belts inside and a customized bosnian goal. ah, with a couple of hours earlier, i met none at his home on the outskirts of to his line where he lifts his passion for fox marks. a state of them digital

niema is perfect, living in both the us be soon. then other that lack of non spent a few years in germany during the war and speaks to language fluently. he set up his car workshop next to his house, 2009, and also keeps his collection of racing trophies dare. i say 50 so it will be in 7th. the wife knows that of these walking with annoying from on the right. the slides that you sent to us, i think most in the stomach you find the result. so if you don't like it, that's why it will be the best way to see is via the most recent initial for me. ok, nancy, 1st of a car was also a golf to. so even old spare parts have a big sentimental value and he gives them

a loving retirement home in his garden. with a fair brook, they're going to try to find this all conditions. right? yeah. i'll keep this afternoon with a non high speed hobby. it means freight nurse and spare parts, but who can resist and wants to sound like this? something is why it eventually learned to live with the meanest golf in bosnia nickname, v. r for veronica is given a final check before all a test drive. the engine is longitudinally mounted, which is why the radiator had to make way and be fitted on the outside. ah. the only remaining headache now is the fuel pipe, but it's nothing d skia. it's can sort out ice and snow will just for me. i wish we spoke recently more thought we vexes with nanette. his

team are often busy tweaking the golf late into the night. to date he's invested around 20000 euros in the car and souped it up to the best part of 1000 horsepower . some people do yoga, are non golf. ah, really so lucy, stressing dark out of those old, reckless shades. shy, saw by them all over. benroski mosquito is if it is old, father of some spoken anons fascination with the golf began when he was just a boy. but why is it that german comic a v w is so wildly popular across the entire country? that both, now that walt chris void for the model organism as licensed, good zip is toya. zip don't really go to it, but is it don't we don't us back on to the probably not sure shouldn't key although sees directly it is volleyball and get off the bus. i thought something here is how

my next of his side, the capital of bosnia herzegovina, the country is home to 4 and a half 1000000 people. and over a 1000000 officially registered cars and a full one 3rd of them, a fox marks. you can only estimate how many goals are actually on the country streets, but the members of this car club are keen to show me the array of models in the possession all goals from generations. one through 8. a man score certainly stands out from the crowd with its retro style paint job exactly what she wanted. why do you like the old stuff so much? i don't know because everything that's all her reminds me of better times. it has its own smell like i don't know, everything is simpler. now it's like complicated people on these plays cards, services. her 1989 golf to got it's make over from fellow club members. the

interior still work in progress, but the car cost just $250.00 euros and is otherwise good to go. which one is the most famous of all the golf carts? in bosnia. i think this one. you can see this car on every corner. you go here in bus, especially sad. i have like whatever you go, you see this car, good, bad rusty or something. you see it and people like it. it's like a legend. yes. it's like a legend. the v w. boswell, story again in 1972 fox walking, teamed up with local comic, at least for a joint venture call. it's monica auto be locked. sorry. it's factory had a workforce of 3 and a half 1000 people dissembling 1st, beetles and later 1st and 2nd generation golf tough yugoslav, west germany success story nodes that will head to which worked into sarajevo factory in the 19 eighties and proudly shows us his touch,

scoff microns so with germany. ah, but it is actually from yugoslavia where exactly oil, oregon only motto, yoga. she is diesel po. so did you all, all i model will fight in severe jarquin alcohol. bottom will be she was follow it up is that she wants to get the molly patrol ship. these are the only difference to the golf made back in west germany was to touch logo on the radiator and the j standing for yugoslavia on the rear hatch. i wasn't to build such a car in socialist, who was love, yo sako: closer to louis: louisiana: you'd be locked up the mob. ah, i've all such a color coin. no, no, it's not on all told me musical ssl checker christmas. you tonight? go for the not something all central awesome school to national, not take with us and somebody go for

a cold. tough watch. like because i'm going to be with the fun my again it out such a little touching up, beecham, southern generation who would soon phase the far more serious ordeal. communist yugoslavia incorporated multiple nationalities and religious affiliations held together by president for life. he has a tito of a decade after his death, the country began to fall apart and the early nineties, the resulting series of balkan wars fought along ethnic and religious lines caused widespread devastation. the bloodiest of the conflicts and bosnia cost, the life of 100000 people, and also left a tough factory destroyed to build. next up, i visit moto, city vulgar shop, where the factory still stops. during the bosnian war at font itself, right on the front line, it's hard to imagine it, a very prosperous factor. we, one time we saw that here, that a lumped in

a few years after the war. it reopened business as b, w several. you only parts of the factory i used by v w today with the us run deduct. it looked to me like a place on the brink of close, despite the money and effort invested after the war. as some of the pictures is show her was back in the days actually reconstruction. 96 to 97 look totally devastated. war torn factory officers destroyed empty construction sites here while the factory reopened in 1998 with great hopes and expectations. v w is bozza and venture never properly recovered ah, only around $170.00 of the ones tong workforce returned. they now assembled scold

us as opposed to goals until eventually the production was likewise, these continued current operations here have been reduced to making individual components for assembly elsewhere. slowly but surely the history of v w invoke russia is trading. oh, but the golf itself and the nostalgia surrounding the car, very much alive and boston among b. w aficionados on the road and foot, sculpture and scientist, daniel climates. he works at the university of fine arts and saw you and has plans to create the monument, celebrating the gulf too, and serving as a reminder of how to ca, provided people with a renewed sense of normality after the ravages of war with

after the war. huge emptiness, miss people that die before the abroad visits. there are no it's so that's a divorce thing with the emptiness and we cannot cry. you'll become cold because we will so many times beaten dwarf all death and destruction to countless families including death of permits. his stepfather died and you, early stages of the conflict and dos who survive, clung on to physical mementos like to golf to provide comfort and conic types is not anymore just caught his eye motion and motion. that's a question of people and i the hold their hands. it's emotions about well see years before war,

about survival during the war. and after that it was a fortune to you for the people to feel themselves. again, like to normal people to feel that we are not for the c r. again, that condition like before. even though it would take many more years for to revel and ruins. to be clear, to wait to hear a 3rd of cars on the road, supposedly not being v w's. they are also among the most popular models for coffee . the majority of police cars also v w. s. well, these offices refused to do an interview about the issue of car theft. they did agree to take me on a photo upright b, w, or so i asked on

demand with the speediest drive in bosnia, about how the stone camp is. this works. just our guess it'd be studies. oh god body shop royce. by phobia, gothic top. com i goes, did you sort of get back up the i mean i'm gonna move because those will few because it doesn't. it's all about this. okay. we can get nothing. yeah. get all done with jog my colleague, jobs, you know, we would, i would love to be talking to booked on how to find my these way out because i don't to, harvard was also pizza. that wasn't, i'm a part of the time. you know, i'm going to do is have to move down then if you did that. all right, well i said that it has to do with the 1000 the different what is a problem with some of the stolen w, as in bosnia, do make it back to the own us, although others on never seen again. i next traveled down south to mazda,

known for the iconic, old bridge, rebuilt after the war. the city has always been a melting pot of different cultures and religions, but must us all to the home of some hard core v w fans. and now of the country's 1st vintage car and museum to it's directors of go village as rustled up a couple of pretty unique goals and shows me wrong to museum. he collects everything that takes his fancy and it helps to preserve the specific cultural heritage. and it's here that i by chance, come across what you might call the spark for the d. w cult here. 1972 test beetle that belong to a delightful but sadly now deceased. oh, so i stopped talking about if i pull out a little more study probably from starting pollution,

was that just with this was low school? i stay mildly so if you are physically near as much as i used to work with and also your other can. there's only thought to put out there to have it a little bit as amusing those and to a conic you swimming man years. no maam, class as well, yolk and things have seen a very colorful development since yonkers vw beetle and muster. although the taste of the v w fans have changed somewhat double drives a g t i g 60 edition, one, a jewel, and a golf crone dating from 1990 and packing, 280 horse palace. most of them has a dea. why stole a custom edition to 21 year old has cerebral palsy and with his dad built something that was not easily available on the market. gulf one cabrio with alta matic transmission, multi m w. told me it. oh boy, dorm, it may well does it? well, that's such a thing for you. yeah, you said you and i and i had to talk to me by the pickup dish. also. dish group,

the short clinician much. they're both. well, what are the one esther brownstone was close jelly, summer towards your chowsky. sunk on the what are the one interesting ramonica ali returned there. phobia yacht knowledge? no, no, no no. i wasn't one of the fall. we're not on to the said i'll be lunch that for those to live. do denise or the non barden bottom moved? let him won't, it was not so wilson does his new number and dad's rounds of my trip across calls, nights ago vino, i'm back in time through the history of the golf's popularity here. a legend, analog story, and one with no shortage of people writing the next chapter. a story that involves a different kind of affiliation and devotion and bosnia and herzegovina. if you want more, rev, check out our youtube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car

scrapping them all in the name of c o. 2 neutrality doesn't make sense. and we would like to electrify as many of these vehicles as possible as a way to supplement new vehicles again. so we are planning growth across europe. on my 2026, i would like to convert 5000 buses to past 26 and 20, who can from 1000 post, almost a retrofit upgrade as environmentally friendly and cheaper. it costs around half as much as a brand new hipa. old my to out. you one, it sounds easy, but it's not. engine is spent a year figuring out how to make it. what do you without hong is the biggest challenge is development shit about the actual manufacturer is easy. the difficulty is the development behind its integration dog getting the components into the space previously intended for something else. a bus isn't designed for batteries or other

power sources. it's built around an engine, got it, and now we have batteries and they have to fit in somewhere designed. that's the challenge. de ms. nits, i'm just out with all the engine used to be where the batteries are now and in boost bonia and we install lithium, ion phosphate batteries. in the buses you take, the batteries are non combustible, and do not require nickel or manganese with them to put it in our buses. the batteries are underneath the passengers, patasha, so it's better ish if the material beneath them is not explosive. monthly on, on 6 was even on the engine is now in the tires. it's called a wheel hub. moto, it's much smaller, but much more efficient than the older ones. yeah, entity got me come up. america market is currently being created here will be

broached, and that's also a big point of criticism. beyond that, we as germany warrant up the forefront tongue ally, we waited for others to do the work. while we kept developing our 6 cylinder diesel or gasoline engines, that's why we're now stepping up our efforts to catch up. i'm to see how we can see that this conversion concept will work worldwide. and that's what we're working toward. of it of his goldfish. it retrofitting old buses instead of buying expensive new ones. it's one idea in the fight against climate change and one doesn't emily walk the buses. see you next time on ref. ah, ah, with
