issues and share ideas ah, you know, or this channel, we are not afraid to happen delicate the top because population is growing. and young people clearly have the solution. the future belongs to you. is 77 percent every weekend on dw the best selling vehicle in the united states gets electrified, used cooking oil powers, a camper van chilly. and britain's iconic mars j type gets a battery powered, may go over. all this a more now on red electric

pitcock with what is considered an oxymoron anymore. the ford f 150 is the most selling car in the us and it's finally coming to europe. but this one has a little zap to it. the ford f 150, the lightning, so a purely electric car. let's check it out. welcome to read. the f 150 has been the best selling vehicle in the us for 41 years on the truck. but does the electric version have what it takes to replicate its big brothers success? this car can also give its energy to power a little household for up to 3 days. that's crazy and nice feature. i like it. speaking of coffee tricks, if you want to have a jam berry in the middle of nowhere, the f 150 provides the energy you'll need for. it's the bed has enough space

because many refrigerators and more but neat features alone don't make rebec vehicle. so what's it like behind this theory? this car can do anything regular f 150 can do as well. ford said that was very important during the development of this cox, so it has the same payload. it can told the same amount. this car is basically a better version, or at least let's say non emitting version of the f 150, with combustion engine. the f 150 can so 885 kilos. that's not bad. the f 150 lightning comes with 2 different battery sizes. the smaller 18th, and 98 kilowatt hours. and the big one has a whopping 130 kilowatt hour. upgrading to the big battery. we'll clean out the smaller one gives you around 370 kilometers range and the bigger ones are on

$500.00. and if you can actually get close to these ranges, ah, me interior of the ford f 150 lightning. at 1st glance, it is rather clean and you also get some vibes off work horse because basically this car is a walk horse, but it looks good anyway, especially that huge touch screen here in the middle is nice to look at. easy to operate. and the only thing i don't like is that you have to adjust the temperature file and touch screen as well. but we've talked about it that often other calls have the same problem. apart from that, what you instantly see if there is so much space in here and it's clear, the car is huge from the outside. so there is also a lot of space in the interior. and what's even more interesting, this car has front because it doesn't need the engine on the hood, then there will the more space and even more secrets i will show you right now. of

course. no ma'am. how i needed to open up on it. this huge and heavy, 400 liters of capacity on the electric order right here. and you have even more than that, right below you half the space for cables, for example, right here, you will find the power outlet. those are american versions right now, but when it comes to germany, of course, kate will have regular household sockets because you can use it. for example, to power an electric drill or a vacuum cleaner. desecai germany, cars are typically 4.6 meters long. hancock is not the 5 meters long for me to last one. the entry level version of the f. 150 lightning comes in and a whopping 332 kilowatts of power and you feel that once you press the. busy accelerator it shoots forwards and that despite the fact that this vehicle is like

around 3 tons heavy, it feels really nice. nimble the site itself and clean the thing is clear, you are sitting rather high in this vehicle higher than most of the other participants in the traffic. you can look down on them somewhat. i mean, not really, but you could because you're driving fuel electric. so you have no c o 2 emissions locally. so you're better than most of the other costs you see driving around small, high ground, assigned to keep in mind that if you load up the flat bed completely f, 150 lightnings range will drop dramatically. the f 150 is one huge car, and i mean that's good for the u. s. spot in germany and in europe, it is a little difficult to find parking spaces or to get into parking garage. but apart

from that, this car is really nice. i enjoy driving it because this one can do what any other half 150 version can do as well. they can tall. he can have a lot of load purely electric. what ask what you want from such a car? wow. for was had to close for you, does that the f 150 lighting back in december 2022 because old 200000 units they planned on making found bias. people seem to like that. it said less a tile. what costs with a high load capacity and is all electric tape, but with a maximum charging speed of 150 kilowatts. this way, for improvements from the prior into the fuel tank is used cooking oil, the environmentally friendly solution for old combustion engines. you can always say there are more restaurants than fuel stations. chelan rodolfo products

certainly is convinced that this technology and already uses it to power his camper van. he's a convert if i feel i'm doing the right thing, i'm protecting the rivers. i'm protecting the environment to get his mission with the camper. to educate people about recycling is gold. a pre cross border transport solution done with internet. we're in a key of frontier 4 by 4 from 2004 more dollars with a 2.9 liter diesel engine annual. it runs flawlessly and seats 6 people in big. i live in a couple, we've converted it into a camper. even sima gambit. what makes this camper special? it runs on recycled cooking oil bit theory. guido police vehicle is called the edge camper level gun. the edge you camper has to fuel is used cooking oil and diesel easy and it has 2 fuel lines. yes. the gun with rodolfo uses a small on board computer to switch between the 2 fuels. this computer shows him

a lot of data, like the temperature of the oil, which is critical information from them in bed. this system only works with 100 per cent vegetable oil. and what's essential is that it's heated remitted within the 1st i use diesel until the water from the radiator warms up. now why exactly? and once the water is hot, that heat, the oil within the oil tank with a coil system or a water heater system might have been thrown. thank you. i think by heating the vegetable oil in a separate tank. the alternative fuel acquires a viscosity and burning properties similar to a diesel vegetable oil is not suitable as a fuel for gasoline engines. folder. diesel engines, on the other hand, can be easily converted since the technology used in the injection systems and the ignition systems. it's very robust, not though the labels,

not all vehicles can be converted to run on oil just to see many can be one, but there are some specific motors that are believe to not support oil as a fuel. if you got an awesome going up, bottle of faith in perfect. so you definitely have to do a little research before adapting a vehicle of that. but in the end, but there are specific simple motors that also always work in the same way or from you and. and then i mean my mind it the onboard computer helps rodolfo switch from diesel to oil very easily, even while driving it as an affair. this opens a solid noise valve that allows oil to enter the engine for the music, and when i press it again, it closes the oil solenoid valve and opens the diesel solenoid valve. yeah, but it about vale. these one of the biggest advantages with this system is that you can refuel wherever you want, and it's free of charge. all you need is used cooking oil from the kitchen,

and a filter. ah, that must be rememberable boy. the more attention i paid to the oil my, the longer my engine will perform. i have to filter the oil. if it's been decanted for a long time, the impurities will have settled at the bottom. it'll go where they pick it up. but since this is oil i collected a short while ago, you might have particles of french fries or, and bananas, or chicken, or anything that has been cooked in it to my, within the system with a my oil fuel line. there's another filter that again, filters, minor particles. right? so here at this point i really try to capture all the bigger particles, but on the browser i, after the 1st filtration process, rodolfo can pour the oil straight into his tank, which is located at the back of the camper. its capacity is 100 leaders which let the vehicle travel around 800 kilometers that are through with

a lot of that. but if i'm going to cover long distances, i can carry several drums and filter of the oil anywhere. film 14th. i think i use 100 percent oil. it was when i use oil, i use 100 percent oil. i don't mix it with diesel, and i don't make biodiesel either. i don't need methanol of any group. i don't need to do any chemical process is to have the fuel. i get to a restaurant and i can filter it outside the restaurant and use it to run you sam low. but he can't just use any oil from the kitchen at the oil is mixed with water . for example, it doesn't work. since the process of separating the oil and water is too complex. plus palm oil is too hard. 0 that is the thought but the but i do it if i heated up to a high temperature, it will liquefy beto as you, but it needs to be very hot. the music there, my thatcher, my system to withstand here to 40 degrees celsius chemo in and in my

vehicle, me, oil, that density black can't be used to been so. ah, the technology itself is not new. in the 2 thousands, some cars in europe ran on vegetable oil. at gas stations, you could sometimes even get rate seed oil. and for rodolfo, it's not a 1st for him to have a vehicle powered by recycled cooking oil between 20082010. the 41 year old drove from canada, the chili and a b. w. gulf using cooking oil. virginia leaders the allowed out i had in 1987 v w. golf. got 1.6 liter diesel named laura beef it global. that also ran on oil. yes sir. that expedition from canada. it actually lasted 22, my wife. it effects based on that and we covered 17 countries and we had 11 clinical who boarded and disembarked at various points. it was like an uber

official yet, and if there are, i don't for going over at that time, rodolfo had the idea of using the car to educate people. thus securing funding for the trip. he visited, schools displayed the car and explain the concept of recycling. give hello, what was incredible was meeting very remote indigenous communities throughout latin america in be kenneth and thought maybe reaching all the capital city, darla, cadillac, global and collaborating with everyone with the messages of caring for the environmental zone with we are ambient fit. we helped highlight the importance of rivers. you know rios guerrilla in the struggle to take care of and defend the rivers and the need to educate people about environmental issues related to rivers. i. e, are you at a location? oh, but almost current camper isn't just for his own use. he also drives it to schools in the south of the country and provides environmental education there. he carried

out most of the modifications needed to make the camper run on oil himself. with the help of a mechanic friend a my difficulty in it's harder to copy than to install an oil system in the car. in the end, it's adding an extra fuel line. i really like and bringing hot water to the system . you're about to lay our wagon fi. i say it there. ah. the original engine was not disturbed during the modification. there were merely a few parts added. it was a model being seen. the radiator has an extended water circuit which we take to the external tank at the back external address. for now we have the main engine id akira. the injection part. you said here you can see the injectors, are you the name on here? we have the water after it's run through the cooling system, the cools the engine, madonna, you wanna. busy road before it gets to the radiator,

we take it out there months ago, our guardian them and send it through this hot waterloo program that was extended to the external oil tank at the back. oh wow. guardian bath. yet that i feel thanking the hot water from the engine compartment comes here to the back of the oil tank and is drained off through the extra water circuit. and with the help of this spiral of water, the oil is constantly heated. another water spiral was installed in the engine compartment where there's a filter embedded in this way. the oil arriving from the tank is kept warm until the n and is filtered again in front of injection. ah, there were some teething problems at the beginning, but the chile and shrugs all concerns that lines filters an injection pumped could break in which again phaser, are a lot of people say, all the injectors are going to fail to visit messy them all diesel cars need the same maintenance eugenio de la had

a diesel car without oil fina faith. you still have to make changes come year. you still have to do make an incentive on injection partners, yvonne bath, and so with oil, it's the same all humans and the more you take care to filter and de county oil, they the longer you can maintain it on guided some on things you rodolfo can recommend this type of converted drive train to many people, especially travelers and long distance drivers. but he also thinks the mod make sense for school buses and garbage trucks. ah, in addition to the technical upgrade, rodolfo gave the camper a new colorful coat of paint. ah tampered with? i will i feel like i'm doing the right thing. even though i drive slower and i get dirtier because i have to filter the oil and collect the oil. but i'm protecting the rivers and protecting the environment. fatal paper, the handle of videos that they've been, i'm helping to let other people know that they can also do so. and they can do it

by recycling oil with the grandmother. converting all old diesel engines to vegetable oil is never going to happen. not all engines are suitable for. the conversion offers no benefit for short journeys. and the time it takes to collect and filter the oil, as well as the slower driving is likely to deter many people. but for those who still want to enjoy traveling in a vehicle that runs on recycled oil, but also may have the right solution for cross border inter continental transport. ah, when the yogi will, when i say i want transport from patagonia to alaska to be inter continental public transport, i'm thinking there would be some vehicle. yeah. yeah. or vehicles, so vehicle always criss crossing the american lady cathy and put it the aim is to spread the idea that began here at the foot of the act of b at eco volcano,

across the entire western hemisphere. but also data will travel many miles to achieve skull and who knows, maybe one day he'll find himself on a bus running on recycled cooking oil from patagonia to alaska. if you want more red, check out our youtube channel. if you want regular features about new cars and car culture, about mobility around the world. read can make you very happy. ha vintage classics and future tech or just some of the exciting content waiting for you. subscribe to us at youtube slash dw read. and you'll always be up to speed.

ah, the morris, j type, a venerable old van that thanks to its cute and cuddly looks brought a smile to the faces of british people in the 1950s. and now it's back in a 21st century edition. this is rudy. a revolution bringing pathology overlap the keisha to sustainability as well. i'm to like wipes just makes everybody's happy. it just brings happiness back to the one market. the morris always going to not product style and we have very much continued that. still, the j type gave the post war a british economy a much needed based the forest i thought was popular because of it. when 1st grade book, you could buy him. for postwar britain, the j type became what the b w bus was for west germany. c more spilt 60000 units

between 19491960 now it's made in all the electric come back with the concept of making a very light white electric van that was designed to be lightfoot from the start. and we actually had access to a couple of the original j types. the project was initiated by cooley, a business woman with decades of experience in the car industry. she acquired the rights to morris commercial, the company that built the original j type. li teamed up with former bentley executive john killick to found a startup their mission to continue making bands that stood out from the crowd and the new millennium to as a women in the van would. and i, i believe we should to bring some glamour into the van. why every bad have to be white in a boxy and a why cannot be, you know,

a something anger and i really attractive. so i like it to build the vehicle ah, desirable. and, and sustainable. mm hm. and the more stay tied provided an ideal basis, a vehicle with a quirky appearance that to this bay makes it a popular choice for marketing and adverts. although the forest j thought was utilitarian, verify, it was a bunch of roll either nobody style and prison stood out for problems of the time. that is partly why we've adopted that as the the going to pull the view for is j. the morris j e b e standing for electric is not just a straight forward retro copy of the original. although it has taken on board its most important features. familiar, iconic j, todd,

which was felicia 1948. we have this fantastic grill, which is unique to that and is the face of or as commercial, or that we have taken that quite faithfully on to the new style and the new morris j. e. very much carries over the smiling face on the personality that 1st came out in 1948 and all the things that may be old model. so practical and so appreciated can be found in it success or to another key feature of the 1948 vehicle which was in its day was called the big little bun. i'd had a great capacity, has this curve, roof roy, so low at the front with a big curve. and we carried that very much into the j e, which also has a high center. the roof gives a great rear capacity. having the cabin in front of the front axle and the engine between the drivers and passenger seat was

a revolution in utility vehicle design. the chassis provided the base for a wide range of body styles from delivery truck to ice, cream van. while the electric power train has meant a number of changes, the underlying principle has been retained. the chassis was designed in a way that enables the vehicle to be used as a mini bus camper van, or pick up so the, the new j e is, is a complete re imagination of the original j type. and as the j type itself was known in its day for innovation, so is the j. now these days efficiency as the priority in e car design. and as the efficiency begins with the weight factor, the entire chassis, including the base plate for the batteries, was fashioned by hand from aluminum. while the j ease body is a carbon fiber construction i,

a t feature of the j o e is the fully recycled carbon fiber body. which of course happy to pinpointed, but we can some of the carbon on the inside of the cargo area here. and the main benefit is, is we have only a 140 kilogram white of the body. and that does a great deal to offset the white with a battery and gives us i superb range and she per payload. and that gives the use of less journeys to transport, the same, the same goods. and then there's the one big difference between the 2 models. so the key innovation is the electrical power unit, which we can see a small amount of can here. we have the charge unit, we have the power distribution unit, and right down below is the motor and the inverter system. so access to the charge port through here like this and we incorporate a vehicle to grid,

the electrical charging system on vehicle to vehicle charging system. the j type. born in 1948 and the j e from 2022. each is innovative, practical and pretty in its own way. so which is the more attractive vehicle? so comparing the old and the new, which would you say is more sexy? well, i would have to cite the new as let's just say that sitting at the wheel of an old j type is something other unique experience driving this. you realize that how hard work it will get those guys failing is quite hard and they'd be about moment is limited to be they. so i do belong to the 2020 even though the retro style is so similar. we've moved forward 60 years also successfully shaping the future means understanding the

past. a notion that the british start up has translated to the road with a moist j e. a vehicle that brings to the best of different areas of automotive engineering. and stage you for more details of automotive transformation on the next episode of red ah, with
