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

experience for the drivers and impressive blend of the analog and digital world. last year, tony and honda have anal if a joint venture for electric cars. now we know the name of the brand, it's going to be called wheeler. and this is the 1st model, the a feel a easy sedan 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 at snapdragon digital chassis, is glad to come on to the market in 2025 and be shipped to customers in 2026 hunting motor and he had 0. 1 creative talent platform are showcasing 10 innovative startups. the carmakers strategy is to nurture an ecosystem for creators. the start ups profit from hun days knowledge, while hyundai 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. while the manufacturers how 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 full public transportation, along with the reveal of the new version of its autonomous shuttle german companies that 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. i like the new version. these vehicles need segregated lanes to help them operate safely. the advantage all versions have in common is that they don't, it is driver and can therefore operate 247,

making transportation easily available in more rural areas. the inception concept is a glen set the future design language, a push o models based on sto, lantus as 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. to sum it up and if he, if he as well, huge and i do not mean that in a positive way because like went away too much time will be 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, autonomous thriving is not that big anymore as it was in the previous years. it still has it in a different style. no more on them of driving for individual cost for public transportation. and i think that's a pretty neat idea. ah, i'm in bosnia herzegovina, the country with a pretty crazy about one very particular account with the gold and volkswagen. a number one choice for the, for the boise people. some people say the goals, legendary status here was born during browsing us war of independence in the ninety's. but the story goes back offered of as i sat down.

why is the golf so adored in bosnia and car? nothing for ransom husky with my journey begins at an old air field near the city of tucson in the north east of the country. on that middle, which is the fastest man in bosnia over 400 meters on the road, that is not the running track. i bet the scary best the best, the golf and bog. they all my god, with the golf mark to meticulously put together by a nonentity. it's fitted with a tree point 6 liter pasano engine. and currently both some $840.00 horse power. and a really me look good. i

can see on site with nonce installed a new and his mission to set a new record of the next meet at 1st the test one will show whether the car is potentially up to the task. ah, we scream from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 2 seconds and there is no stopping us. a flat out hail mary, run with no seat belts inside and a customized bosnian gall. ah, with a couple of hours earlier, i met none at his home on the outskirts of to his line where he lives, his passion for fox. i still of them to shuttle

me monday is perfect. i will bring them both the us be soon. then other that lack of non spent a few years in germany during the war and speaks to language fluency. he set up his car workshop next to his house, 2009, and also keeps his collection of racing trophies there. it says step is lisa lisa will be here in earings of on the vice. there's no set of these walking with them or anything on the slides. just a few more seems to be so much on the visual tool. so if you're going to try get the slides will be the best way to see if my son, mrs. mitchell, for me. nancy, 1st of a car was also a golf too. so even old spare parts have a big sentimental value,

and it gives them a loving retirement home in his garden with a square block, they're going to try to find his old conditions. right? yeah. i'll keep this afternoon with a non high speed hobby. it means fred, nurse and spare parts, but who can resist and wants to sound like this? something is wife eventually learned to live with. the meanest golf and 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. we'll dish from the irish we spoke recently . more thought evictions with his

team are often busy tweaking the golf late into the night. to date, he's invested around 20000 euros in the car and suited up to the best part of 1000 horsepower. some people do yoga are non golf. ah. really. so list is listing dark after all. rick is shives shy, saw by them. although benroski, mosquito zip is old father some spike ordinance fascination with the golf began when he was just a boy. but why is it the german comic a v w is so wildly popular across the entire country? my oldest that buzz navigable question void for, for the model or did is the license, zip is toya, didn't all you got to it? but it didn't, don't we don't us. i transfer the call me not soon. shouldn't p o the, what i see doesn't it is friday run. get all composite. that's an idea. he saw, ah,

my next of his side to 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 countries streets. but the members of this car club i came to show me the array of models in their 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 there 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, everything. her 1989 gulf 2 got its make over from fellow club members. the interiors work in progress, but to car cost,

just $250.00 euros and is otherwise good to go. which one is the most famous of all the golf course 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 will see it and people like it. it's like a legend. yes. it's like collecting the v w. bosnia story. again in 1972 fox walking, teamed up with local comic, at least for a joint venture called 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 german success story. nasa willa head to which worked and the cerebral factory and the 19 eighties and proudly shows us his tuscola microns.

so with germany, ah, but it is actually from yugoslavia aqua that yo, yo, oregon only more towards the other and she is diesel. who so what did you? oh, oh, i model bullfight in siberia, we are popular am. wellbutrin goes follow 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 lobel on the radiator and the j standing for you was lava on the rear hatch. i was a to build such a car in socialist, who was love. you say the circle closer to will savannah. a lot of the mom i've also check color coin. no, no, it's not on all told him is of also checking the christmas city. nice golfer, he got some faculty all central, but some schools your national not taking this and so we go for these who's been

also called sub watch, like because i'm going to be with fun. my again it out such a little touch on that beach. some of the generation who would soon phase the far more series 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 lions 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 vogue, a 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 fact to me. one time i was on that here that a lengthy,

a few years after the war, it reopened business as p. w several, you only parts of the factory i used by v w. today. what the us rented out. it looked to me like a place on the brink of clothes, despite the money and effort invested off the door. as some of the pictures are show her was back in the days actually reconstruction. 9627 totally devastated. war torn factory officers destroyed empty construction sites. here. while the factory we opened in 1998 with great hopes and expectations, v w boss and venture never properly recovered. ah, only around 170 of the one's 3 and a half 1000 strong work force returns. they now assembled,

sco does as opposed to goals until eventually the production was likewise discontinued. currently, operations here have been reduced to making individual components for assembly elsewhere, slowly but surely the history of b. w, invoke russia is trading. oh, but the golf itself and the nostalgia surrounding the car out very much alive in boston. among b. w. aficionados on the road and for 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 comp provided people with a renewed sense of normality after the ravages of war. ah,

after the war was huge emptiness, you miss people that die before that abroad visited the term north. so that's the worst thing. that emptiness and the who cannot cry, you'll become cold because you will so many times beaten dwarf all death and destruction to countless families including death of permits. his dead father died and he, early stages of the conflict and dos who survive, clung on to physical mementos like to golf to provide comfort. conic types is not anymore just caught his eye motion and motion. that's it by 7 feet full and either hold their house. it's emotions or both. they'll see years

before war, about survival during the war. and after all, that was a fortune tea for the people to feel themselves. again, like a normal people to feel that we are not poor. again, that condition like before. even though it would take many more years for the rebel 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 b 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 w or so i asked on

demand with the speediest, dryden boss now about how the stone comp business works. just i guess it'd be studies. oh god, why is that voiced by phobia, garbage dot com. i go into the district about the, i mean, i'm gonna assume so if you, because it doesn't, it's all about this. okay. we can get nothing from. yeah. you know, don't just jog my colleague enough for me, but i got a little fun mike. these will be that i don't to, harvard was also pizza. that wasn't done for the time. let me know what you said. that was done. if you did that. all right, well i said that it has, she will have it. she says, i still need to tell them of the 1000 the different ways of hello, what's your rule? so some of the stolen and w, as in bosnia, do make it back to the own us. although others, i've never seen again an external don to muster 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 does all to the home of some hard core v w fans. and now of the country's 1st vintage car museum to it's directors of co 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 going to pull out a little more study probably for smart inclusion. was that just with this was low

school? i steam out to you. so if you are physically not jennifer, i used to work with a but also your artic and there's only told to put out the actual but actually i believe it's almost no santo, a conic you swimming man years? no mom, curse, low and things have seen a very colorful development. since yell goes, vw beetle and ma stock. although the taste of the v w fans have changed somewhat double drives the g t i g 60 edition one, a jewel and a gulf crone dating from 1990 and packing, 280 horse palace. most of has a d i y star custom edition to 21 year old has cerebral palsy and with his dad build something that was not easily available on the market. the gulf one cabrio with alta matic transmission dampier than w formula toilet they were done. no, that should be good for you. yeah, you're right, yolanda and i thought to me as by the ticket dish full,

so did she cooper short finished much. they're both well. what are the one this took parents were suppose jelly went towards yet chowsky sunk on the what are the one is just a name? uneven ali because their phobia. ja knowledge. no. nope. is no good. i wasn't one of the fall. we're not on to the so i'll be learned that for those to live, do denise or the non bottom bottom moved. let him won't. it was not. so wilson does his mom and dad's rounds of my trip across carson yard. sort of, you know, i'm back in time through the history of to golf's popularity here. a legend, analog story, and one with no shortage of people writing the next chapter. the story that involves a different kind of affiliation and devotion, in 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 to can from 1000 plus, almost a retrofit upgrade is 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 with the without what on is the biggest challenge is development shit up. all the actual manufacture 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 bush 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 or the here, so it's better is if the material beneath them is non explosive, monthly on 65th. and the engine is now in the tires. it's called a wheel hub motor. it's much smaller, but much more efficient than the older ones. yeah, the entity got amiga, mac, a mega market is currently being created here will be broach. and that's also

a big point of criticism that we as germany weren't on the forefront chung line. we waited for others to do the work while we kept developing our 6 shoulder diesel or gasoline engines. that's why we're now stepping up our efforts to catch up and how we can see that this conversion concept will work world wide. and that's what we're working toward. off his engulf, issued, retrofitting old masters instead of buying expensive new ones. it's one i did in the fight against climate change. and one doesn't emily walk for buses? see you next time on row. ah ah ah ah ah

ah ah ah, with taiwan the tail of a digit old democracy. despite a checkered past, the island has emerged as one of the most dynamic democracies in asia. the key reasons for this are the internet, new technologies,

and direct citizen participation. can they help to taiwan, achieve its sovereignty. if 15 minutes on d, w ah, an exclusive interview with donnie dionne director of the yacht marsh, him holocaust memorial. you vowed that you would never visit germany. what are your expectations? we have to think together how to continue to keep the flame of all upholstery members alive. now he's visiting germany for the very 1st time. the exclusive interview with donnie. dionne might stay in 75 minutes on d w o level on to get a money. i'm a lost, i live in that i didn't give it away. it is

somebody currently more people than in worldwide in such a thing in life. but i think this is in progress. that's a lot of money. that's what i believe with a limited i find out that bally story info. migraine, reliable news for migrant where that they may be oh, well you become a criminal. ooh, a ready news with hackers, paralyzing the tire societies. computers that are some are you and governments that go crazy for your data. we explain how these technologies work,
