075 years ago, mahatma gandhi peacefully led the country to independence. what has remained of his vision? where does the world so called the largest democracy stand and where is india headed in? this is the moment to unleash or non violent bash. gandhi's legacy starts january 28th on d, w. b full electric power at v y d. o fossil acceleration with the gulf tave, and complete freedom flying with solar power that and more now on red. with
7:31 am
this is the b y, d at o 3 a chinese purely electric car that does a lot of things differently. but does that make it a better car? we'll find out today. why come to ref? hm. oh oh oh, oh oh, oh, b y d short for build your dreams is one of the largest new energy vehicle makers in the world. ah, the at o 3 has our really cool feature. that is, that you can change the direction of that central touch display. so if you don't like it, like that is simply press that button and it will flip bye and to degrees. and then
7:32 am
it turns the picture just like a tablet that you would use at home. and i mean, have you seen any alcala that works? i haven't. and i've seen a lot of car ah, for dinner, a driving impression in the b y. d at o re ease. pretty smooth. you feel some bumps, but it's nothing that you would consider a disturbing fact. so it's quite a nice ride. the after 3 has a powerful 1. $150.00 kilowatt output makes the dash from 0 to 107.3 seconds and can reach a top speed of 160 kilometers per hour. the exterior of the atto 3 has a fresh, sporty design without being to future istic with a length of 4.45 meters. it slots in somewhere between b w's id 3 and id for the interior of the b, y, d at
7:33 am
o. 3. at 1st glance, it looks quite cool, pretty futuristic. the steering wheel fee, it's nice. it has some buttons for the most important functions as you're used to in most other cars. what takes some getting used to though is the door opener, because it's right here and you have to pull it back like this to open the door. if you don't know it, you will spend a lot of time looking for it because it's nowhere down here. apart from that, you have these vans right here. those look quite futuristic as well. they are a little loud if you close them, but you will not off he uses, so it's ok down here you have some buttons for most important functions. for example, for parking assistance or the also hold function. but the highlight in the interior is definitely that huge touch screen right here that will give you navigation. and of course, music's if i d a b plus radio,
7:34 am
everything you need. the only thing i don't really like is the fact that you have to adjust the temperature via the touch screen as well. ah, one annoying thing on our test drive was that the lane assistant, which warns if you're about to leave your lane is a little too motivated. which means it sometimes warns you a little too early and narrow roads. ah, the thing that makes me you id car, so special are the batteries instead of lithium ion battery said i use in most other electric because nowadays they use a lithium iron phosphate batteries. and those are the only ones right now that can pause the nail test whether it's a nail driven through the battery. this is done in the nail penetration lab of the b y d subsidiary bin dreams, which is responsible for battery production. the so called blade battery pack
7:35 am
certainly deserves its name thanks to its long plant shaped synthesis. the nail penetration tests simulate short circuits and batteries under extreme conditions, as are nail pierce's battery for the purpose of analyzing his performance in a situation in the industry, the test is the most stringent battery safety hasn't caught up with the man in charge. his dr. chow lee. he prepares both the blade battery and an n. c. m. lithium battery pack for the test. as soon as the nail is driven through the n c m, batteries, outer shell, the battery starts to inflate and smoke and then it explodes and burns at temperatures above 500 degrees celsius. in contrast, the blade battery emits neither plains nor smoke and its surface temperature does not exceed 60 degrees celsius. this implies that e, b 's, equipped with the blade battery would be far less susceptible to catching fire even when severely damaged. another test sees
7:36 am
a $46.00 ton fully loaded, heavy duty truck roll over the blade battery pack. surprisingly, the battery survives the test without leakage, deformation or smoke. in the final step of the test, the blade battery is reassembled and loaded into a b y. d han e v, and the vehicle still functions, but the blade batteries have even more advantages. so again, 1st of all, higher volumetric energy density if you, thanks to structural innovation, your blade battery boasts arrays with a high level of integration and fewer structural elements. this increases space utilization from 40 percent, in the case of conventional battery packs, to 60 percent, or even up to 75.6 percent raising volumetric energy density of $310.00 some watt hours per liter. a main advantage of the blade batteries is that, unlike regular lithium ion batteries, they do not require cobol, which is already a rare raw material. for the battery capacity of the at o. b is,
7:37 am
are all in 60.5 kilowatt hours. and that will give you all 120 kilometers of her age. those are on the same amount that you have in all the cars. in that segment b, y, d invested around 1400000000 euros in the fin dreams battery factory and cha, ching, it. now produces an annual 20 gigawatt hours equivalent to around 200000 battery packs. there are rumors that the blade battery packs will power, other carmakers vehicles as well. one advantage is weight mm. according to b, y d or the battery sales account for 80 to 90 percent of the total weight of a blade battery pack. while in a conventional and see a battery pack, it's only around 60 percent. this car comes in at somewhere around $38000.00 euros in germany, and you will almost not find any ela car in that segments for that price. and
7:38 am
especially with all the features you get in this car during the euro, and c a p crash test. the ada 3 receive the full 5 out of 5 rating and $91.00 out of a 100 points or passenger safety. as of now the at o 3 is based on 400 volts technology, like most of the other electric cars out there. but the platform that it's built on also supports $800.00 vol technology. and if this car becomes a success and the numbers allow it, they would also think about moving it in an 800 volt version. and that would then mean the car can be charged faster than it can be. now the display here is really small. it only has the most important information. so it's really minimalistic and i think i like that.
7:39 am
the echo 3 has a po, output of $150.00 kilowatts, and it can go up to 160 kilometers an hour. that is not exactly fast, but considering that you want to save energy, it's absolutely okay. and also considering at least where i live in the area in germany, you won't find a lot of space where you can go any faster than 130 kilometers an hour because either there is some traffic jam all down some road works. anything could be there, so $160.00, it's more than enough. all and all the arrow 3 is a nicely designed car that offers a lot of driving pleasure and some well thought out ideas such as the rotating touch display, the built in guitar in the door. and of course, the safe battery packs. on the downside, the door handle is counter intuitive. the climate control is touch base and the
7:40 am
lean assist is a little too enthusiastic. ah. with this is the fastest golf in bosnia. got out of the window and mrs. its driver from bush lives. when i now told me 4 know of argument that those rules, pfizer couldn't verify the social net amendment of inch from to this last monday to effect a living room golf. yes. be soon. then out that i'm, that's if somebody will add that whips his car to ever plans to track times this beefy golf mark to is nick named v r. it's just recovered from an engine failure
7:41 am
and the team has set up an important test drive. the new bottle showing up on what all those websites are going to ruin this ring. vod department, ms on an old dog w to suit so. so that won't work up with a show for the site that needs to see it all. and he still see it that the soviets others, behold, will be the feeler hutton, is all the believe was all this, all this whole point, the void, the show, the short distance of pm. it's a lot of the you bought. so i thought, boggy vendor we bought, swipe bargain doesn't actually you by knowing who that piss, it's that higher boost pressure that enables such monster power. the team wants to get the car back into record breaking shape. that means programmer is meal skills are of crucial importance. now
7:42 am
checking is every single kid checking parliament. there's ignition table feeling. is it like last time? if he's up here we can drugs ah, the before the final test we visit on in tooth left. this is where the car mechanic lives out, his d w patch and we wanted to effect over the new goldfish pursuit. then other none lived in germany. in the 90s, during the bosnian war in 2009, he opened an auto repair shop. time for one last check before the test drive. the engine has been re mounted longitudinally after the water damage with a radiator placed outside the grill. for space reasons, i'm on foreign bodies or student body building. oh, great. i bought the new model, i go to the motor, didn't know how to of i yet. so we have these links on google. i need more time for body. we've got rockville. why alice holds share by that the kind of hosted on
7:43 am
godaddy was to allison give out where the legs talking was don't go to complete corporate corporate, the sponsor for them to both. i was raised these to be a form this feeling for growth give leave. there is just one problem still with the fuel house. but of course that's no big deal for these tuning pros. oh mm snohomish for me i wish we spoke recently more thought eviction is good and then has invested around 20000 euros in the gulf so far. pushing the car from 75 to over 800 horse power. does this? yeah, that is. that is meant by via boston. molly malice said about to the hospital is for up. gotch device will be a i'm all this is will be, are you about? i was on the 3rd before. do you want your cold believe know, $100.00 tuesday about some for being up the storage post office with
7:44 am
non specialty is the quarter mile sprint for we are will be in 7th. the wife knows the of these, what we've been waiting for the right, the slides that you know to fight even wasn't got this down much upon the leadership role. so really, if you don't like it, that's why it will be the best to say this week is really the most recent initial for me with and special used parts are of course not thrown away, but the treasury with the stair broke the annoyance. why get on the drug will continue to work with for
7:45 am
adam and many other policy and a v w is the go to car ad not has a long relationship with german cars. my the f s out of the road to the sea without going to i, right, as i, i live or so my my last and 100 dollars out of miti this fall. we believe i had the money i believe all plow via go. just want to follow to get us this thing off we are for we've had him up for, we call them and he was in call from the does this big old mission i should call them. and when the for the field, my god, that that's court demands issue. but if you know for the call from this ring is just such a while as given the meeting, probably it's time to head for the test track, an old air field, the listing kept up with the shades sites out by the mobile. i've been asked to do
7:46 am
some i guess the hello to look at that they can she mr. scott? it's, i think if it is finished or none of these are something that we are whom are these, we went out this i thought was, it was the, the thing is to be told the dog give out. mm hm. all is set for the dress rehearsal. them in 2 seconds, man flies from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour. and just keeps on going with

7:54 am
put all his savings into the price of time. and chris, when i come from feeling i'm impressed, since it's very smooth, he completely integrated the solar cells into the willingness wall. when you some children young, i'm an engineer and pilot, and i have an idea how much work went into this. it's fantastic and it makes you dream familiar. some feel of a dream of climate friendly flight without emitting a single gram of c o 2 was ordered though chris already happening so so you can fly lot lot on because his preparing for the next leg of the term. the glove for let's roll and swear either i'll fly 2 more police to peek. so lou or overflow huck. westborough, a flock. the engineer loves nature and technology. he used to work designing underwater robots. once near the south pole. he watched a young albatross in flight. his welcome 1st clever little with with albatrosses in flight,
7:55 am
are fabulous. some of the news they inspired me is i said i wanted to fly like them one day. how long would it come? so it's basically this year wasn't a, is touring france by air more than 2000 kilometers. it's how he imagines the future of travel or to him, now 7000 feet above most ami show with many in the aeronautics industry, think he's nuts. there wasn't, is convinced, even jumbo jets will one day fly powered by the sun alone emission free z if girl boy, of course it's hard to imagine a boeing or air bus with solar cells to video. but modern photovoltaic cells will harness just 20 percent of the energy in 10 to 20 years ago. it might be 40 or 60 percent on if you just the but that claims might be traveling just 400 kilometers an hour instead of $800.00. but that's enough for domestic flight manon, mississippi. this was a film during takeoff. enquire, yay, it was
7:56 am
a lay demonstrates his invention. conventional glide is need a winch or a motorized plane to start and a loss of entity. but he was a man, makes it up into the air on his own bed. we were my toe to false is almost over for the aviation pioneers, already planning his tour of europe to get even more people on board with the dream of flying with the power of the sun. so out of a good flight and see you next time on rev ah,
