with an electric pick up with one 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, the 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 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. and the bed has enough space,

because many refrigerators and more. but neat features alone don't make rebec spending vehicles. so what's it like behind the steering wheel? this car can do anything regular f 150 can do as well. ford said that was very important during the development of this car, 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 a non emitting version of the f 150 with combustion engine. the f 150 can so 885 kilos. the fact that the f 150 lightning comes with 2 different battery cy, this the smaller 18th, 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 big

ones are wrong. 500. and if you can actually get close to these ranges, that would be really good for the car off that size. and that way i me interior of the ford f 150 lightning at 1st glance. it is rather clean and you also get some vibes off work cars 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 and 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

a frog because it doesn't need the engine on the hood, then there will be more space and even more secrets. i will show you right now. no ma'am, how i needed to open up on it. this huge and heavy 400 leaders of capacity on the electric hoarder 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, it 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 at a 5 meters long. for me to last one, the entry level version of the f. $150.00 lightning comes in and a whopping $332.00 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 despite 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 moral 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 a 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. it can't all, it can have a lot of low and purely electric. what else got you one from such a car? wow. force had to close for you, does that the f 150 lighting back in december 2022 because old 200000 units, they planned on making sound bias. people things like that. it said less a tile. what caused with a high load capacity and is all electric tape, but with a maximum charging speed of 150 kilowatts. this way, for improve 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 man, face his mission with the camper. to educate people about recycling his gold, a pre cross border transport solution. pick them up in unit were in a key of frontier 4 by 4 from 2004 more thought it was 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 gamblin. what makes this camper special? it runs on recycled cooking oil. it's the week window for this vehicle is called the edge camper label gun. but the edu camper has to fuel is it used cooking, oil and diesel easy. and it has to fuel lines. seeing as the gum 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 this system only works with 100 percent vegetable oil. good faith 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 the 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 as very robust not only will also, 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 believed to not support oil as a fuel if you got an awesome going up by 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 that, i mean, my manager, the onboard computer helps rodolfo switch from diesel to oil very easily. even while driving is an affair. this opens a solid oil valve that allows oil to enter the engine, and when i press it again, it closes the oil solenoid valve and opens the diesel solenoid valve. yeah, but in a liquid about vale, these one of the biggest advantages with this system is that and

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 remembered. oh boy, if 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 will 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 within 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 behalf of it i'm 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 $100.00 leaders which

let the vehicle travel around 800 kilometers. but if your, if a lot of good, if i'm going to cover long distances, i can carry several drums and filter of the oil anywhere fuel. i say 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 that you satellite. but he can't just use any oil from the kitchen. if 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 the palm oil is too hard to look at in the thought that the but i don't if i heated up to a high temperature, it will liquefy battle energy. but it needs to be very hot. the music there, my dad to my system can withstand he to 40 degrees celsius. more in and in

my vehicle need oil that density bought can't be used to then. 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 leaders. the allowed app i had in 1987 v. w. golf and 1.6 liter diesel named laura beef portable that also ran on oil. yes. here that expedition from canada to chile lasted 22. might wonder if it effects based on that and we covered 17 countries and

we had 11 political who boarded and disembarked at various points. it was like an uber official viet, any 0. i don't fucking one over at that time, rodolfo had the idea of using the car to educate people. thus securing funding for the trim 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 d. kenneth and dominique reaching all the capital city door lock, abbey political and collaborating with everyone with the messages of caring for the environmental zone that we are being there. we helped highlight the importance of rivers, you know, are you looking for an 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. u at location, but almost current camper isn't just for his own use. he also drives into 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, 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 about to lay i why? galleon fair, i 50 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 either. for now we have the main engine id, akira, the injection part. you filter 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

madonica the wine road. busy busy before it gets to the radiator, we take it out there months ago, our guardian them and send it through this hot waterloo plug that was extended to the external oil tank at battles. our guardian bass, he had the us as yet. thank in 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 the injection pump. there were some teething problems at the beginning bought the chilly and shrugs or concerns that lines filters and injection pumps could break beam which again phase it 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, that you still have to make changes come, you still have to do maintenance on injection progress. evelyn bath, and so with oil, it's the same here. and the more you take care to filter and decamp the oil, they the longer you can maintain it and guided samantha as 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. in addition to the technical upgrade, rodolfo gave the camper a new colorful coat of paint for the 5th. and i will, i feel like i'm doing the right thing. even though i drive slower, okay, 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 over

use the food and i'm helping to let other people know that they can also do so and they can do it by recycling oil. you know, if the grandmother converting all old diesel engines to vegetable oil is never going to happen. not all engines are suitable for it. 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 you know, the 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 crisscrossing the american lady got him 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 i'll vote out, i will travel many miles to achieve this goal. and who knows, maybe one day he'll find himself on a bus running on recycled cooking oil from patagonia to alaska. ah . if you want more read 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. ah, 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 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 the facility, overlap the keisha to sustainability as well. i'm to like white just make everybody happy. it just bring happiness back to the van market. the moorish always will not collect style and we have very much continued that. still the j type gave the postwar a british economy a much needed boost. the forest, i thought, was popular with bullion of the bomb. for postwar

britain, the j time became what the v w bus was for west germany. c more spilt 60000 units between 19491960 now it's made and all electric come back with a concept of making a very light white electric van that was designed to be electric 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 builds the original j type. li teamed up with former bentley executive john killick to found a start up their mission to continue making bands that stood out from the crowd and the new millennium to as a women in divine word. and i, i believe we should to bring some glamour into the van. why every that have to be

white in a boxy and a why cannot be, you know, a something angle. i really attractive. so i like to theater vehicle ah, desirable and day and sustainable. and the morris j t. i provided an ideal basis, a vehicle with a quirky appearance that to this day makes it a popular choice for marketing and efforts. although the forest j talk was a utilitarian vertical, it was a van off roll. enormous style and prisons stood out of the abundance of the time like that. that is partly why we've adopted that as the the going to pull the new forest j. the morris j e. b, e standing for electric is not just a straightforward retro copy of the original,

although it has taken on board it's most important features. familiar, iconic j type, which was liter. 1948. we have this fantastic grill, which is unique to that and is ask a face of morris commercial. other we have taken that quite faithfully on to the new style of the new morris. j e. very much carries over the smiling face and 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 date was called the big little bun. i'd had a great capacity, has these curved roof line so low at the front with a big curve. and we carried back 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's was a revolution in utility vehicle design. the chassis provided the base for a wide range of bodies from delivery truck to ice cream van multi electric power train has meant a number of changes. the underlying principle has been retained. a 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, e e, e, e e. now the face efficiency of the priority in e car design. and as efficiency begins with a 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 key feature of the j o e is the fully recycled carbon fiber body. which of course happy to think painted, but we can see some of the carbon on the inside of the cargo area here. and the main benefit is as we have only a 140 kilogram white of the body. and that does a great deal to offset the weight of the battery and gives us a shoe per range. and she per payload. and that gives the user less journeys to transport, the same, the same goods. and then there's the one big difference between the 2 models. for the key innovation is the electrical power unit, which we can see a small amount of. and 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 electrical charging system and 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 that's driving this. you realize how hard we'll get. we'll get those guys. there is quite hard with limited so i basically do belong to the 20 twenty's even though the retro style is so similar. we've moved forward 60 years also
