this is maureen, you, craig, one years since the invasion began. we take a look back and into the future. in slow rain. in february on d, w ah, oh, from an o. h a luxury sep, in eco island with a micro great to charge mean and to crazy d i y, he'll claim racer invoice me out. hold on for a while right now on rat with

they are not many purely electric, luxurious su, ethan, they're on the market right now, and this is the newest one, the audi, q 8 e tron, but can it be the mercy this e q s s u v and the like. we will find out right now. welcome to read the entry level audi q e tron is powered by a $250.00 q la moda. while the s q a sport that version we tested, gets plenty of grunts from. it's $370.00 kilowatt motor. a general driving impression in the q i'd e tron is really smooth than i mean, audi cannot afford to do mistakes in this car because this is the flagship model. so you have to be smooth, but it also asked to be quite sporty since we're driving the asp version. that also features a lot of power. and you will want to feel that when you're driving and. busy if you wanted to accelerate really good and you want to have a very nice handling and the car features all of this

what i especially like is the fact that it is very silent on the interior. of course, i can only compare it with what i remember, but the q s s u, v was not any more silent, neither was land rover's rangel. what i do have to admit though, is that the e q s s t v and the land rover range rover felt a little more spacious right here. you feel comfortable that it's not like you would miss space, but it could be a little more spacious. the sporty aspect of the eighty's on deniva, especially if you put the pedal to the metal, it will make the dash from 0 to a 100 kilometers an hour in. busy for and off seconds, and that feels really good and he can go up to a top speed of 210 kilometers an hour, which is also quite good for a purely electric car.

in the exterior design of the q 8, now blends much more harmoniously to the our model family with a new honeycomb grill. and when it comes to charging for convenience is king right here. this side, you will find the charging port. he simply press the button, the full stone electrically, and then you can plug it in fast charging, no problem whatsoever, but for luxurious cause, you need even more. and that's why on this side, there is another charging port. you can open it electrically as well, but you have to say this one is not maple 5 charging. so it's mainly for your wall books at home. but you can choose the side, and that is a luxurious feature, i think is pretty nice. i mean, of course, what you also need for the maximum feeling of luxury on the self leveling badges

that will stop in horizontal manner. no matter how you stop the car, the co carrying the design of the cars. i have to say the roundish falls of the u. s. s. e v were not exactly appealing to me and the land rover with its flat surfaces. not exactly either, but this car is very nice. i like it. the only thing i would wish for is the black package, because that one is available for all versions and that will mean that what is silver right here and also the grill will be in a black finish, which would look way more aggressive waste body. the quality inside the s q h cabin remains unchanged with audis characteristic use of high quality material. of course, a lot of controls do work mainly via the touch screen. and the touch pad requires a bit more force to use,

but at least this prevents accidentally in place. like are also has a range of off market features you'd expect, including leather upholstery and heated front and rear seat. was a decent amount of boot space should you want to do a road trip in audi has also adjusted the version line up. so the q at each one is only available in 3 different versions. the advanced line, which i like the name suggest is the entry level version, the s line and the one we're driving here. the ask you 8, so the sporty version. the thing i don't like at all these digital mirrors because you will look outside, then you will find that small thing. you will look down, you will find the picture. and the picture also looks different than what you're used to in the regular mirror. but don't worry,

the digital side view mirrors always optional. so even if you get the ask you a, you will always find regular mirror. now let's take a look at what drives the motor of the queueing. let's talk about the battery for a 2nd. there are 2 different versions, 95 kilowatt hours, and that is the small one. and 100. 14 kilowatt hours, but only did not simply put in bigger batteries. they also worked on cell chemistry and made the south 20 percent more dense, so they take less space for the 2nd semester. it's an approach that the mayor of the islands biggest community, la, paling agrees with thanks to him. the police are now also going electric. most of the vehicles used by the local authorities, had them replaced with e varieties. psychos, boy, it's a better fit for our emergency. the best energies, the kind that doesn't have to be produced and could you call our efforts are

focused on saving energy wherever we can. it is the continued in elgin, the mayor, previously had the island clinics fleet of vehicles turned electric to they insure at home care for the $5000.00 residents across an 87 square kilometer area. but that's all old news for the director of the hospital. lead almost out to believe has always been a laboratory for all kinds of innovations in the islands characteristics mean we have to be a step ahead on levels. we're already making substantial use of drones for transferring blood supplies. for example, i see with c, i'm super dead and we don't use environmentally harmful ship transportation, hosp elder deposited on ah, the tourist sector now also feature sustainable options. instead of taking the big energy, gosling, diesel, ferries. visitors have the alternative of soft transportation on sale boats

with a little bit of on folly the before we talk about bio gas, we're focusing on an energy that's free and is available 70 or 80 percent of the time. if it is per year, we have to reduce our consumption, especially in transportation. we're sold in august this year and we can do that simply by using sale power in wrong. it's the only one journalist still then vill nerve is also committed to the fight to lower energy consumption. she only drives an e car when she is heavy cargo to get from a to b. for her saving energy is a way of life. said to her revolution, corolla, it's a cultural revolution. also me more learning to consume less without having a poorer quality of life. vain, warm young concept that will be indispensable in the future. absolutely more and

disposable. there also some highly imaginative ways of saving energy on bell little the artists at this workshop create new mapping sculptures, all fashioned from raw materials that their owners no longer wanted her like her be . i collect all kinds of scrap and trash and use my imagination, return what i find into something new form, upper all fortunate her not imaginary. poor on the, on missouri. i do my bid for the environment by recycling waste and normally it's extremely costly on bill. you look within which will be the waste is put in containers. taken by boat to the mainland and disposed of milk, we created different cycle by which the islands trash is recycled and we appreciated chetry to revolt into a cheese as from what's in the island, has a range of different initiatives fighting for sustainability in their own way. what they all agree on is the most harmful factor for the island. first on that,

there were thoughts and they're having limited resources means we have to be particularly careful with tourism when it comes to lowering consumption. because there's far too much energy being used during the summer to suppose from brooklyn, new the new canal, z for samira z only 3 continued to his me or to a letter says it's hell here in the summer. all the cars and all the people coming to the island. so i thought i should birth. i'm worried to believe the farmers and fishermen used to be the backbone if the economy had been or is it the shirley, then everything was turned on its head to la buses that equal and now tourism is dictating things. she said toby, but that's wrong, but also to everything's gotten too expensive, passcode to, to pressure. ah, we like assuming that the masses of tourists to arrive in the peak vacation period are huge,

strain in our resources with all 40 the single. so we're thinking of extending the seasons so that the stream of tourists isn't concentrated on july and august 24th. and this is where the i know project could prove invaluable. the resulting traumatic drop in energy costs means that loss viens can now afford to heat her bungalows. after the summer. port angeles is on said we're going to extend our season when they say to wash hewn, but this year we'll be closing on september 18th, next year. we'll try to stay open a lot longer. need to talk basket, said danny. say t. neon. from soon fact with the system now up and running that we've seen our energy bill cut in half. lydia last isn't on in another sign of progress. you can already tour the islands many sites of cultural interest with the help of the solar power sourced from the micro grid. here where history and old traditions meet modern developments, there are creative ideas galore for ensuring

a sustainable future. the sample is in a legendary legacy of quote, monet and the needle rocks a fork, a toss issue. and of course that history is used for tourist activity, but the main attraction of value is an island becoming an exciting pilot project. talk. we've got it all here. the wind up to the sun borne a sort a coil. well, i tribble abroad. well, it could become a lovely laboratory to ski a kind of experimental avant garde for energy duration on belly up. what you've shown danielle geno snow on the shore as it hands towards a new age of energy use. the aptly named belial or beautiful island boasts a remarkably diverse approach. rich with visionary ideas and not short on controversy. but where would we be energy wise? if we didn't have the occasional bit of friction of the sustainable variety,
