waterfalls flowing water particles into the air b, trees, sweating out up to 1000 liters of water in a day. or sea forest fires, evaporating large amounts of moisture tune in to get the answer. and learn more about this phenomenon with the invisible river that flows through the sky starts march 23rd on d, w o. we test the way coffee, one hybrid discover an electric to 80 s l investigative, public transport role model and meet lebanon's patriotic tabby. now on red with
8:31 am
great wall motors away, coffee one is a modern and luxurious s u. v. that helps to fight for a place in the european cityscape. how good is it? and does it live up to its energetic name reb, put it to the test to find out. i folks welcome to ref. today i have a question for you. which popular hot drink is called like the cow we are testing today? maybe some of you already guessed it. this is the way coffee, one, a plugin hybrid which is luxurious and officer range, almost up to 150 kilometers fully electric. if way is telling us the truth or not, we're going to find out today. ah, the way coffee one is an all wheel drive hybrid. but let's dive right into the bit of this plug in hybrid that we find most interesting. the battery
8:32 am
so i'm driving right now. let's talk a little bit about the battery capacity. we got in this way coffee, one, to be precise. we got a 39.67 kilowatt hour battery in here. but for us to make it easier, we just say 40 right now. and why did they fit a 40 kilowatt hour battery into the way caufield? oh, why do they fitted like in a plug in hybrid? i mean, it's a really big sized battery if you compare it to different plug in hybrids. but of course, it's understandable for me because way wanted to give the customer the opportunity to drive really far on only electric. and it's in all electric mode that the way copy one manages to eke out a range of 146 kilometers. add to that a 5 star crash test rating, and it's clear that this machine might be a formidable rival to the mazda cx, 60, and the b,
8:33 am
w tick. wow. so the way copy one comes with a 2 liter 4 cylinder engine, which produces $150.00 kilowatt. in addition to that, we have one electric engine at the front and one electric engine at the bag. and so we get a total output of power $350.00 killer. despite the rather heavy weight, the coffee, one hits the turn in just 5 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 235 kilometers per hour. it's not just about the performance though, the way coffee is a real looker on the outside. this behemoth as a modern and expensive air. thanks to the generous use of chrome.
8:34 am
it's an impression that carries on inside to be comfortable seats. vega, leather and high quality materials which when combined with a roomy rare seats, give passengers the impression there, ensconced in a high end limousine. so when we talk about quality in the back, you can see we got different colors in the seats in front of us. we got different colors on the doors. we got an infinity sansa slim here on board. i mean everything feels and looks pretty high in quality. i would say, when you sit here, you feel like in the luxurious premium as u. v. and this is what way wants to offer you what's more for those worried about charging times, going from 0 to 80 percent charge takes around 50 minutes with a 50 kilowatt dc charger. so, what's my verdict for to day? i have to say way and great while motors didn't promise us too much. unfortunately,
8:35 am
i could drive only 116 kilometers with it fully electric because i only had 75 per cent of battery in the beginning. but if my math is correct, and if you multiply it like i did, then you get up to 160 kilometers of pure electric range. and i think it's really possible with that car. so all it all, i have to say the coffee one. convinced me with its driving behavior, with its electric range and with its quality in the inside and the outside. and i am excited to see how it will be received in the european markets. the way coffee one impresses with its electric range and quality, with prices starting at around 56000 euros in germany. but it's only available as a plug in hybrid and not as a pure e v, which is disappointing. this
8:36 am
is no ordinary mercedes. it's an electric retro model to 80 s l. c. rescued and lovingly restored in belgium. we strongly believe that we can build a car that is it to a certain extent, better than the original models. ah, ah, the die hard, better house. some of them heat us money, so automobiles specializes in turning mercedes, $1.00 oh, $7.00 series calls into no tale pie permission vehicles for a cleanup peach. for us it was very important that we stay close to the original car. so we didn't want to go to fast like the series include, scam such as the 280 f l 3 of the 350. i fell 4th to pay that me
8:37 am
our, our aim that we keep doubt that vintage classic fuel in the car. so for example, the steering wheel, we have upgraded it to electric's power steering ah, it was born from, from a business idea. i'm an entrepreneur and i thought, well, this could be an interesting car to build. and for me it's the combination of the passion for cars and specifically for mercedes course and the passion for the the ongoing energy transition. hey, there is a group of people that, that, that think that what we do is, is indeed check religion, that we should not do it ours. society is changing into a complete new direct direction. and what effect that household cars
8:38 am
if we want to keep them on the street re engineering it into an electric rich i'mma process requires a sit down and down body. every car starts like this, so completely bare shell ah course will be completely 100 percent restored. we have the whole car in 3 d so that we have every exact measurement. and from there we start developing each part that needs to go with the thing is that these cars on our build for a complete different brokers and a different drive train. so when we start adding new components does actually are not designed for this car. ah, the most complicated, toughest is fitting everything that we need to have in there. so we have
8:39 am
a better pagan front battery, pagan rear. and that's the biggest bulk and also the biggest weight that we're hitting ah, so we try to keep as much weight on both of the axis. so we use also the original mounting points, for example, of the engine. it's, it's a completely new way of, of constructing, ah, each of these parts that you see here is on the follow, for example, to shifter. but also now pretty simple things like on the cables that run underneath the car for the, for the high voltage. but also for the cooling lines. we use 3 d printing to make these flexible parts. and, and matching this together, we'll make a m, a fixation that the cables are not hanging in there or can touch anything.
8:40 am
ah, what's the magic? i think it's, it's the combination of a design and build quality. truen heights austin vint, canada homeowner shift dialing on an optimality sneaks in the mail commodity maps he dispense peak of iep swung that after his l diamond at frontier is ill wont even that frontier ill, diesel copy him twice its a bit 9 with math and comport. and figure high and in terms of design, when the car came out, it was deemed to be quite a large car. i think it, it prove itself so much that it was sold for over 18 years. and the best year that the car was sold was in 1986 murphy has been specked as poor blamed as isha had and ever to not lose that material in tyler i can test the poor fashion on
8:41 am
twitter shop. teacher has resulted of you that the teacher had sustained india. i'd have picked up it. so that proves that the design is very timeless and it's, it's also starting to grow on, on the current market. with a car designed in, in the late sixty's is still appealing to public in the late eighty's at that that's something that, that's pretty unique. and only a couple score us can, can say that ah, ah, client decides what we, what we built and together with them we designed as in this case we regularly set together look at fabric samples and, and in the end we combine everything in terms of the the alcantara in the,
8:42 am
the roof today, due to fabrics and the letter. ah, so in this call, we have a $22.00 kilowatt charger, which basically means that we can charge the full car in 2 hours at most high power am. but you can also use a normal with normal socket to charge a car. this is a car that you go driving in the morning and you have a range of about 300 kilometers. ah, d l c was put through its paces alongside a full meal, a full car as a secret zelda in belgium. things that we'd 1000 this is simple range. a simple how to car behaves are on
8:43 am
a track. obviously you go more to the, to the limit of a car. ah, i think we, we deliver a complete different driving experience ah, than a classic car. and so did the smell of fuel and oil is something that we cannot find out what it would be strange to out and also the sound, da, da, da, da, da, da combustion i in late. so you have to enjoy the fact that this scar doesn't make done much young so to complete restoration ever thing done. our asking price data starts at
8:44 am
$3169.00. thousands are excluding via d is, is not high, but obviously what is value? i think this scar on the current market place and the growing marketplace in future will keep its value with picket the dash what? but there were no ticket barriers. it took me awhile to realize that public transport jamie was not in fact free. when i 1st moved here, i was pretty overwhelmed by the whole system. do i take the underground, the subway, the drown the bus, or even the ferry, or a combination of all of them? how does public transport in germany actually work? and how important is it for a daily life here?
8:45 am
well, let find out. germany is definitely more famous for its cars than its public transport . mercedes, b, n, w, r portia or old, globally popular german car, bronze. but the number of people using public transport here is rapidly increasing, especially in cities. all right, let's jump in with a brief explanation about how the public transport system here actually works. we have a subway system, an undergrad system, and trams and buses that drive on the street. they differ in speed and rail network . the lack of ticket barriers here is confusing as a system of trust, but don't be a fool. inspectors do occasionally walk around the train to make sure that you've got a ticket and it's 60 fine. and he doing so not worth it. you can buy tickets through an app on your phone or in most stations around the city because they're ticket machines everywhere. it's different depending on which region you're traveling in in germany, a poorest ab too easy for it to be the same everywhere. don't forget to stop your
8:46 am
ticket. otherwise it's not valid. there are different types of tickets depending on the zone. the number of people and the stop you're traveling to, for example, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. okay, easy. what types of transport? there are also berries. most people i know in berlin don't have a car because it's so easy to travel by train, track our bus. plus, if you're driving, you often get stuck in traffic. there are never enough parking spaces and let's be honest, it's not great for the environment. public transport is also the greenest way of moving along. besides your bike, even buses are not being converted to electric. emissions from the transportation sector have been growing over the past. they're here as compared to other sectors, mainly by the usage of cars. because of the climate crisis, attention is increasing and accessible. transport solutions are emerging slow. it's huge to use public transport and you can use it everywhere every time. this is
8:47 am
stephane, carsten, future ologist. how important is public transport for a german culture? well, 1st of all, the comments so other transportation is trying hard and is fighting with the full extent to get more and people nowadays and then public transportation is inclusive. it's sosa and it's sustainable. the idea of the european city to be around in public space and not talking your private car. here for 23 hours. the city is about sitting and copies and dresser and, and talk to each other and debate the, the great, the courses of our times. at public transportation is the enabler for the that may be what we can expect to see in the future that this kind of introduction of different types of modes of transport. people are trying to integrate new mode of
8:48 am
transport into what is public transportation. if you, if you take this good idea, for example, this, this part of public transportation today, this is something that is happening right now. i'm very optimistic about the future of public transportation because it gets more modern. these words will help you navigate transport in germany, heenan as that, so i can rail replacement service. you'll hear this pretty often in germany. every time a train is broken or is being replaced by buffet, as short as simply done after local public transport kinda kit right. plus it's much easier to say now it's time to meet the chanel, those who keep the whole bus li system moving. i'm thinking quite a shirley jones who drives trains in berlin and she loves it. southland court and holland during the tunnel for the 1st time was a great experience. highly. this dog hold the lights everywhere, the signals,
8:49 am
the sounds of the trains and it's a great feeling to sit on the tressel and drive through the tunnel at 70 kilometers . and our, our top speed is a really great feeling. the staff is that the most annoying thing is passengers holding doors open and when it says started back alleys, it means it when people come running up and the doors close, i don't know because i bite them. we have a scheduled a cape and we dr. as might have to go to the bathroom at the terminus that on those a minutes, we'd be missing them. you mean you were on fear of on them, but with trains every 4 minutes? if i'm honest, mostly we're not on time. and so we can't wait to come and lead on this model. there you have it? public transport in germany. it certainly makes my life here in berlin. more convenient and more from that said, it's nice to see how it brings everyone out here together.
