8:30 pm
a pork chop with the other. what is the alternative and how does it taste? it's like the real thing. yeah. will we all begin in 50 years? i seen very fewer strong arguments to keep eating out of a documentary series about the future of food with the great debate this week on d. w. a . from electric tip trucks, to electric ships and old motorcycles. we've got them old. plus we ask why german cars no longer live up to they won stella image now on rev with. c
8:31 pm
german cars are unreliable, study show that just getting worse as time goes by. the quality changed. why does the quality of the german automobile no longer match? it's once wonderful. image engineering was remitted from the management finance. a lot of if you try to reduce the cost of the vehicle production and i think you run the risk of damaging your image at some point. but then it won't allow you to jim and cars have been the in the to me of quality and technology for over a 100 years of the adventure of our time equate fiction. that was then today things look, difference is government in the past. german automobile. many
8:32 pm
has had a number of massive problems. ah, it's mostly for like a v w for example. when the c and g tags exploded, people nearly died and they were children in the back of the v. w to ran and the car hadn't been recalled into this and that's bad. slim. how long can german cars live off the image of excellence that they built up in the past? that is negative cargo. that's a good question. how long can you live of this bonus? this little image bonus image bonus leave? because the time when the german automotive industry could rest on its laurels is long gone to health issues, i'm aware that there is a claim that we need to prove german engineering skills again, and that would no longer alone in the world. but us work in a highly competitive environment on that develop our oh
8:33 pm
american data analysis company, j. d pallet regularly publishes studies on the quality of automobiles and the germans haven't been in the forefront for a long time. the last study found cars from the u. s. and south korea with the best, the best german com manufacturer is b, m, w. max 9th. mercedes is ranks 19th, porsha 24th hand far behind in the rankings are fucked fun. and andy, with thunder in the study included all u. s. residents who had registered a new car in the last year. so this year, for example, in our survey, we received more than $80000.00 results within the survey. we question the customers on more than 220 different questions. the 1st question we ask is, did you have any problem with that feature? the german cars? what we see is that the cars have increasingly sophisticated,
8:34 pm
and the sophistication is appreciated by the customers. but sometimes it causes issues for the customer defect. st. jam and cars are documented precisely in the usa, even if there were recalls due to issues in quality. in germany matters like this are often swept under the rug. that's why journalist nico again says, started the blog, k f said, recalls don't d on it. he publishes data on all the vehicle problems in the auto industry before you hoped in my main intention was to bring in at least a rudimentary transparency similar to what exists and the usa. so standing there on the websites of the respectable authorities, you find nearly all the details on the subject of recalls in the usa, you get the feeling that the authorities hold the reins that control and drives the manufacturers. but here you don't have that feeling well. so
8:35 pm
up on the screw moves, it's no wonder that the diesel gate scandal in which german manufacturers manipulated exhaust gas values flew up in the u. s. was in oakland, california, and all is now on it all began in california gall to both water and the pressure that was built up there very quickly led to the cards being laid out on the table. and wolves book that set the ball rolling in the walk didn't come on any. and it's hard to imagine such pressure from the german authorities. they are still there is still a protective reflex that they have towards their bread and butter industries. with that still the german car industry, not before and logical, and germany and the automobile, a legendary bond. after all, the car was invented in germany, in 1886 car beds laid the foundation for the successful made in germany,
8:36 pm
product. berlin classic hardy level cut steins, has many mercedes benz models from the seventy's, eighty's and ninety's on offer. in terms of quality they definitely are ahead of the cause of 2023. the modern cars which are produced now. they will find the end in about 15 or maximum maximum 20 years different than these cars. these cars, you can drive for 20 as early as the 1900 thirty's mercedes, helped build the legend of the german automobile on the race track. germany has a dazzling racing heritage from the silver arrows to 7 time formula. one well championed michelle schumacher before his time at the world classic conversation mary jo tyson was entrenched in the well the formula one as b m w's motor sports director. he knows german calls from poli arrests down to the
8:37 pm
very last detail and also knows what lies behind the maiden gemini, miss. 50 years ago, the marketing marketing didn't play a big role in product planning and product decisions. i saw it was indeed the engineers on the r and d side and also on the production side and who steered the products. ready the product range and product planning, and suddenly they looked in the 1st place above good engineering quality. tom fisher is one of the best classic congress stories in the world. he knows that german cars were once convincing in terms of quality. the solidity demonstrated by this b and w from 937 was no longer available in german cars from the mid 199.
8:38 pm
the congress are getting bigger, and all the concurrent brands, they run much more money, le managers. they were in the situation that they, i have to bring more money to the shareholders. the quality changed differently, and it was the engineering was, was limited from the management. that's my german manufacturer is now have to save on production costs. in 2022, the german automobile club, 80 ac examined 580 calls specifically to analyze quality of work and material. things didn't look great for some models from the b, w group and delena death by northern mother. and you were modeling us that have come on to the market i last few years i, animals, or even the last one or 2 years. we've seen the tendency is to use inexpensive material effect night on kind of what we see the panels on covet and fabric. any longer open bull bye,
8:39 pm
don't want to lick. and this the fact that everything below the door handle is now made of hard plastic. and farthest either when a hard plastic german car magazine autopay, it has also been putting ca, brands through their paces for decades. and they use a wide variety of methods to create a ranking, tens of quality and reliability. in that hod bar for a number of years, the japanese and korean manufacturers rank themselves ahead of the germans and korean isn't here, stella. but that might have something to do with the fact that the german comic has worked and still are older, more innovative. what than other manufacturers, vogtle which does include an element of risk since some techniques which haven't been proven yet, and i used to be that ah, with the vw beetle, there was a simple guarantee as these as car runs and
8:40 pm
runs and runs and romans eventually more and more advanced technology was installed in its successes from the motor to the assistant systems to digital operations. is interesting. of course, our pride in our engineering is still the same as it was then as the skeleton. but it is probably very important that the focus and orientation has shifted dramatically by over the last one or 2 decades to also include efficiency and other attributes of, of vehicles. love automated vehicles have become much more complex and therefore need to be impressive and more area items until even if the technology and german cars is no longer as reliable as it used to be. modern german cars can still win the hearts of customers in an appeal study. the analysts from j. d power asked
8:41 pm
about the emotional appeal of cars and the germans and right out that german cars are performing at a high technology level, bringing much customer delight to the, to the market. they're also doing it in a way i describe of our emotional attachment, image of german cars that we see in our studies remains high. if you look at to which cars are sold and on the roads, the german cars may a dominant room. her despite being very highly prized the long months funding, we can't say exactly how long you can live off this image phone, i think on this image bonus on compare. that just depends on how long it takes for one's reputation to slowly get back to the company. with tom fisher deals with car brands from all over the world and is keenly aware of how closely the image and sales figures of cause and look at
8:42 pm
italian growers are going out is still assailing every year. more and more course only was emotional. if the italians are losing the motion and nothing, there is nothing left. and if we germans looser quality, that's the same as other set. so one of those points why people are buying german course. and now there's another new challenge, the transition to electron mobility. german engineers often like experience in terms of hardware and software in e v. s. the production of these computers on wheels is often riddled with errors and software problems in new cars. a commonplace disappointed customers report that even with premium models, that cost upwards of a $130000.00 euros. the highly developed technology. sometimes it's crazy or new technology. unproven. good to be developed in a very short time. the situation, the industry hasn't been
8:43 pm
n for maybe 50 years or even longer. ah, electric energy, electric motors and digital services in the car, the roman menu for actors. they work very hard to get those the to take those new competencies on board. and if they can't do this, they will have the better cost because they know how to build a little bit long. if we it, we'll do it right. and we'll, i'll meticulous vehicle testing process hasn't changed. and that's why i wouldn't say that an id 3 today. won't last a 1000000 kilometers times google or t. this is purely speculative. in other words, that's the difficult thing about this topic. i would like to make a prediction, but basically we're always looking back at the past. again. the temptation to adorn
8:44 pm
oneself with laurels of the past remains. but to day, the mythic status of the german automobile is at stake. and this is inextricably linked to a successful future for the german car industry. ah, ah, these are the unofficial mascots of thailand. the took took one money i think took, took the something thailand should be proud of. they are unique and represent thailand me of my wonderful highway as iconic as the roaring to strikes my b. they do contribute to air pollution in bangkok. but now about $300.00 new electric took took on the tie capital streets are helping to change that. the entire booking system is now controlled by a, an ad. and these ease are made for 6 passengers,
8:45 pm
rather than just 3. our phobias is a, is a charlene concept. it's me in bad. see want to get people going the same way. getting the same recalls and go to get is by doing that. people will appear less on this one because they're chad at a loss. all of the try will commute is can pay as little as does $30.00 euro cents for a ride. the price rises in tandem with distance traveled. and time guy out here, i want to use the damage to the environment. so i prefer this took, took, whether it's a step to make the word a better place and it's nice to travel without toxic fumes hang. good, ha, ha, move me the on demand, right. sharing service plans to have 1000 electric took, took some the streets by 2024, including in other major cities and thailand. re up,
8:46 pm
so like 3000000 us passenger triples already and we have satellite 800 pounds soft c o. 2 emission comparing does equally to 6 acres off for us it's almost as it took, took, were designed to be electric from the stars since thou. so light, the battery lasts much longer than that in an electric car. but their lack of noise can be a problem on immune and on the corner of the vehicle, the more dangerous it is. i believe it happened that i was behind the pedestrian, who simply didn't hear me coming in. so i have to be very careful with some fuel powered tux will likely remain as tourist attractions. many took, took drivers agree, but they will soon be outnumbered by electric vehicles. irrespective of the motor though, according to the move me co founder took ducks have become more popular and that
8:47 pm
has had a positive effect on the whole industry. the mulberry could change the light before that. that thing like, if you will sit in some, something is not a condition, it's very hot and echoed, he's on his way is left to leave. but after cool with something fresh air with their facilities as more hildy. if you're a tourist visiting bangkok, palaces and temples and one to do so and, and took, took the move me up is also available in english, which has its advantages. you don't have to deal with like, ah, my language barriers in the same time. if you tell you directly into the app that how much you have to pay and everything is pay his catalyst best hassle free. it certainly beats the alternative of haggling. but don't forget, you are allowed to tip the driver of your move me to a tech where the day or night 3 busy streets or to your favorite st food stool.
8:48 pm
you'll have a blast experiencing thailand in a touch of, even if it's electric. these containers are being loaded onto a freighter and pours gra, south of norway, capital osler, destined for the port of bray mc. at 1st glance, thomas vance bridge looks like any other, but it has a few more joysticks and monitors. in here you can see our only drive system put a b. we don't have any diesel or auxilary engines. we rely entirely on batteries. for all the lights as well as propulsion law, generally ships have at least one diesel engine as a back up vol near saw you all of them. but here we've done away with that completely. isn't with you. as the ship glides down,
8:49 pm
the oslo pure. it leaves no trail of black smoke. it's fully electric. in the engine room, toma shows us his ships, beating heart banks of batteries. cha with power from a hydro electric plant. a single charge can take the ship about 75 kilometers. that's still a fairly short hom, but electrician bjorn are floss sorta is already mulling over solutions for the future. this to said for a, for longer distances, they'll be a kind of how a bank in the middle of the see a boat living over by ships can stop there and fill up with like a gas station within law. then off to the next charging station or so with a network of charging stations, the range would be unlimited big events. now, when it comes to electro mobility, the norwegians don't just talk big. they put ideas into practice, whether on water or land, even as the yarn, a beer kalonde container ship is in its test. phase dozens of car fairies are
8:50 pm
already plying the fjords on electric power. the ports are equipped with gigantic outlets for the ships they recharge, while passengers disembark and board norway's ferry users are glad to see the country's electric boom. take to the water. yeah, we lose aldehyde. i like that. this theory is much more mud and, and much quieter. already come up and it's bigger said can take more guns along the boston electric can carry $200.00 cars and $600.00 passengers, making it the world's largest electric drive. very. but captain eric voskus had to get used to its handling group. the stuff to foreshadowing for the biggest difference for us is the silence. i o. steel. ethan as you can tell, no, you can't hear a thing. and others chanel diesel, ferries react slower to staring commands. the curve is flat of us. an electric
8:51 pm
ferry reacts much faster months. similar to electric cars. it's linda, it'll be making shipping more environmentally friendly is just one advantage of the yard beer. calon norwegian engineers are also using it to see whether ships can sail without a crew on board right now. thomas fable still needs to be on the bridge, but in just 2 years, the ship should run itself with the captain on shore. full little healthy, the ship will make its own decision. this route your but mean my job will be to monitor them up and make sure the machine is doing what it's supposed to help them, nothing. the maritime trials should be completed soon. norway will then have the world's 1st all electric and self pilot in container ship. this motorcycle is 104 years old. with hard work and axle grease, you're going to lose out, keeps it running. even though hardly any parts are available. any more. historical
8:52 pm
bikes, of the former german business owners, great passion. he has the most fun when he can ride without a helmet, the way carefully by his ones his teeth. because y'all why it's this boundless freedom that you seem to feel. it's beautiful to take time and enjoy nature with a lot, especially on such an old motorcycle with yet, and also enjoys taking a seat on the side car and allowing his mechanic to get behind the handle of the view of the feeling that comes over you is that of pure excitement or the very 1st time i have a road such a vintage bike with a side car was the spark that made me say, ok, i'm going to buy an old bike like this. and then gradually it grew into the collector's mania. and in 3 months, totaling of a 2000 square meters in orbit and central germany, yoga and keeps more than $200.00 motorcycles from several areas. with no shortage
8:53 pm
of dedication, he makes sure that each and every one of them stays roadworthy. his collection valued at no less than 7 figures is one of a kind. it is, i know it's an addiction that doesn't afflict your health as much as your wallet. or oh but yes, it's an addiction and it's a passion i. so and part of the joy of collecting that is that not everything always works right away. but then your joy is all the greater when it eventually all comes together nicely. on folks in this 1912 harley davidson is one of his favorite bikes. it once belong to american movies does steve mcqueen mcqueen apparently and steve mcqueen had a fascination of for the color rid of film and painted the entire motorcycle riddle, the atlanta wide and loving attention to detail. we carefully removed the paint and
8:54 pm
brought out the original potato, not potty, not on into this august. unfortunately, upon this 993 indian is likely the only one still in existence in europe. next to it stands. another rarity, the oldest motorcycle ever made by b. m. w this isn't here. this here is the origin of b, m, w. motorcycles. will the are 32 that b m w built in 1923. the pride of his connection can be found in the whole 4 side con motorcycles. many of the bikes on display here have long been out of production . at one time cycles, we used for every conceivable purpose, even transporting prisoners with the i'm, it's who my ambition is to try and bring forgotten vehicle. get back into the spotlight, talk of so yet an author rolls out his rare side col, machines at races and festivals. he organizes himself,
8:55 pm
some are good century old or more and he even has plans to re establish side cars in motor sports. your guns latest treasure is a unique set of wheels built by german race. again tamisha in the 1980s. i mama's mccall. i have to like the motorcycle of ursula teeth. this one here is technically incredibly innovative. dunham ended up in the end. this combination of factors and all that gives it an emotional value eyes. you can discuss the price, but not with me hope or doesn't. i hope that i never come when i'm forced to sell anything that would be really painful. every new addition to his collection is given a thorough check up and then put through its paces is under the guise though, it's the kind of excitement and joy a child feels when a new toy arrives or you know what's coming and you can hardly wait until it's there is that counseling i can hardly wait to start it up to hear it rattling away
8:56 pm
and inhaled the fumes. that's the smell of a vintage motorbike. ah, for most of his classic bikes you're going to buddha has a license limited to test drive. and as long as he can afford it, he'll carry on collecting and writing vintage and classic bikes that might otherwise gather dust and the museum with on that note. happy mentoring. and see you next time on ref. ah ah, with ah.
