8:30 am
revised spits, thanks to music. ah, he was the nazi's favorite conductor. he is morally degenerate to musicians under the swastika, a documentary about the sounds of power, inspiring story about survival of the home and go get the tennis. i was the only one what lies and look music in nazi germany. watch now on youtube. d. w documentary. oh, today on read the auto and mobility show the key, b, 6, gd, test it b. b terms explained. an albanian obsession with the 3 pointed star. with
8:31 am
the key i. e v 6 is one impressive electric vehicle, which is why when it's 40 or sibling, the v 6 g t was announced. there were plenty of expectations rad louis capital, put it through its paces on road and track in sweden. hi guys. welcome to rec. today i'm here with kyo with the new e, b 6, g t. this is the fastest kia ever built and how it drives we're going to find out today, like the high and ionic 5 and the regular e v 6. the d t version is also built on higher dies electric, global modular platform ha, booking in this kia,
8:32 am
because when you hit the exhilarated get instant power and punch, as you beg in the seed, which is really fun. the other thing i really like about the e v 6, g, g t, is that you can drive pretty solid and corners because they stiffened up the bag of the kia and they precisely a changed the steering on the front. xle. so you get a lot of grip and corners, which is pretty nice and the big s u v like this. but it doesn't even feel as heavy as it is. the v 6 g t weighs 2.2 tons. but it's adapt a chassis, active role stabilization and a ground clearance reduced by 5 millimeters and sure that it is good on the road. it comes powered by a 77.4 kilowatt hour battery with 424 kilometers of range. you get everything in full, a take 3.5 seconds from 0 to 100 and the tops bit of 260 kilometers
8:33 am
a pretty impressive and we're going to find out by ourselves now. whoa, yeah, that walks forward. i mean, it's under 3.5 seconds. i think it's about 3.2 seconds as they tested. and that's really impressive for me, for such a big and heavy se of he like the v 6, g t b, b 6, g t is powered by 2 electric motors. a 160 kilowatt motor in front, and a brand new 270 kilowatt motor at the rear, which he uses a to stay to inverter. that contributes to the machines quick response. for driving fast with the v 6 t t he on the race track, it's really fun, but you should always drive it as well on the streets. and therefore we are going into stockholm. we are driving into sweden and we're going to have
8:34 am
a look how this car drives it every day. behavior sees g t stands for ground to res mo, or grand tour. it should come as no surprise for the easy 6 g t allowance for comfort and performance and plenty, even on long distance drives and helping things along is the fact that it to gets key as 800 volt technology treatment. which means that at fast charging stations, it's better we can go from 10 to 80 percent in just 10 minutes. so let's talk about the general driving impression. and after say the kia evie 6 t t really drives comfortable and relaxing. he on the streets. you don't even feel whole, sit on even feel bombs and it's really relaxing to drive here in sweden. the only down point for me here is that these streets are so narrow and these lanes are so
8:35 am
narrow that the lane keeping assistant often just recognizes one lane. and so he just pushes you sometimes in one direction, which doesn't feel so good. as far as energy recovery goes, this kia comes with a multi stage recuperation option. we're up to $150.00 kilowatts can be recovered. it also has one pedal mode which help save energy. so what's the difference between the e v 6 and the v 6 g t? yeah, the v 6 is the whole different car. i would say here change the suspension here. they changed the brakes. they upgraded the power, they changed quite a lot in here. so the car feels less feels like a different car to me and it's got some impressive performance figures. we're talking about numbers like 3.5 seconds from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour. we
8:36 am
are talking about figures like from a posh tie, can s, for example, i mean, and it's double the price. the tie can estimate the price of the e v $60.00 t. so why should you buy a tie? can s if the evie 6 g t has the same figures are almost the same figures as this car. i mean, i don't see the reason any more because i get a lot of driving pleasure and a lot of fun driving this car right now. so why shouldn't i save my money there and go for the v 6 g teens debt? and while this car might not be as pretty as a fortune or ref, tester was still impressed. so let's talk about the design of the e, b 6 and i have to say i really like it from the outside. i think looks bardy, it looks good to me and i really like the inside. i think it looks futuristic with
8:37 am
this 2 digital displays right here and the infotainment with a quick touch response. i really like it. and the i toggle symbols which you can change though you can operate while driving what you need. the 60 t can seems an average to 20.6 kilowatt hours. however, this consumption value increases significantly. if you want to have a lot of fun in the kia, my car tester today, which means the harder you are on the accelerator, the faster the range drops. but in a machine this big on fine, it's pretty hard to resist matching the pedal. so guys, now my final verdict to the kia e v 6 g t. i think it's a really fun car to drive. it's so powerful, but in the same way relaxing. and i think it's a good way kia got this e v 6 g t. now, because it's not easy fix anymore, it's complete new car prices for the kia, $86.00
8:38 am
t t start at around $70000.00 euros in germany. worth it if you're looking to go electric and want to have a bit of fun behind the wheel. but keep in mind, a heavy right foot might see that range drop quickly. if you're not careful today, we're going to tell you exactly how to get your e terms, right? there's a lot of confusing information about electron mobility out there. so maybe you heard about m pairs, loyalty rewards kilowatt hour, whatever we want to give you the details you need to know to be fully red. there are various types of freebies on the market to provide when most people talk about ease. they mean battery electric beakers of b, e b like this tesla, i'm driving a d v as a pulley elected v good, which has a battery where dos all that energy in this battery can be loaded again and again
8:39 am
by charging it. now let's understand the common terms most b b driver says every day. so let's start with kilowatt hours. a german with a sausage. what the stereotype. so imagine this is your e v battery. the amount of need in that sausage is equal to the amount of energy stored in the battery. so this is considered kilowatt hours. for example, the tesla comes with a 77 kilowatt hour battery. now let's talk about kilowatts. so when you look at the sausage, the meet needs to go into the casing, the rate of what the meat is going into. the sausage is equal to the rate of what the energy is flowing into the battery. and that is what is called kilowatts in germany. you're most likely to find 11 kilowatt charges in cities in smaller towns or the countryside. you find up to 50 kilowatt charges, and on highways,
8:40 am
you'll find charges with an average of $3.50 kilowatts. now let's talk about m p s . this isn't a term that you're going to worry about it most external charging stations, but it doesn't matter if you're trying to charge your e v at home, or a drain and plucked once the amount of current going through the wire across and passed through an employer is the unit of measure of electric current, and you need to know how many empath lang can take to prevent damaging the line or the device in this case and electric vehicles. otherwise, this is the consequence. a burnt socket all worse, but now on towards the force you to push. the current as quote was actually the thick of the cable. the more was the more empath possibly voice have an influence on charging speed, a lot of ease, including the tesla motors, we performance charge with $400.00 voice technology. but some edi manufacturers
8:41 am
like kia portion, audi, a switching to 800 word technology. twin ab, even fast attract, thinking about charging evie if you ever one now why sometimes people take out their very own cable and plug it into the charger or sometimes they pull out the cable from the charger and into the car. is related to 2 more very important e v terms. so a, c and d. c charging this, for example is ac charging a fee for alternating current as how energy is usually supplies. but dc or direct current is the energy that at least a took the keys capable of taking. so usually when you take a table out of your car and plug it into a charger, what you're doing is taking alternating current and sending it into the car where the cars convert that changes it to direct current for the battery to stop. but when you take the cable straight out of the charger, you usually sending direct currents straight into the cost battery because
8:42 am
a conversion happens within the external charge. so logically, this is usually much fasfa. i've just finished my charging, had an ac charge out with a type 2 cable. you wonder what type 2 cable is? stay tuned for next. how 2? 434445 times up now is 103 mercy. with just at this intersection here. i travel to albania and looked high and low for and since as to why it has more messy, dispenses per capita than anywhere else. ah, a legend has a dead sunny albania proclivity for mosquitoes began in the ninety's after the communist bloc crumbled. as i discovered deb was only half the story,
8:43 am
some secrets have just been very well kept. ref hunter for clues for that might explain, albania is mess seated, obsession. ah, what better place to start than the capital toronto home to around 500000 people with and boasting a notorious mercy this collapses. ah, they are madly in love with the w $120.00 worth produce between the mid eighties and the end of the ninety's. and eventually marketed as the eclipse with slick old machines dead look, brand new, tricked out in every respect. and with more than a few special features. ah,
8:44 am
oh, doesn't work if you, if you do that than traffic move? no, no, no. as it is impossible, a good there are 3 such clubs and albania with well over a 100 members who travel to meet from all over the country. wide this model because it looks cool. oh wow. yeah, it looks cool and the it's the more unusable here in obeying of that is made just for for fun road alton tells me these cars are usually and garages, but when out they shine brighter, classical thing it is. yes, they're covered and vaseline to make sure the tires don't look, use almost the proportional, classical car, sulisaga thing actually with the club members on the streets, it's really hard to guess how many bend sister on to ronna. so i decided to check
8:45 am
for myself. bound make it 10 minutes. st. county at starting. now. ok. one hour. i'm lucky to get it 13453. and are all here. laces. driving for one year. both of them are there's a my long read 40. now read 40. what is the 40 through god? 43444546. that blunt from would be $440.00. a field of german number plates. time is up now is $100.00 dreamers citizens, just a distant. i would say it's not that actually time to figure out exactly how many mosquitoes cars, really ply the streets of albania. so i visit the vehicle registration department and to run up. they definitely know the numbers. i'm often there approximately 740000 registered vehicles and albania,
8:46 am
of which 212000 are benches in terms of percentage that's approximately 29 to 30 percent, which is the share that mercedes benz has in the albanian car market. when this shipping around every 3rd car on albanian streets as a mosquitoes most a 2nd hand folded and 10 years. but our been says this large market share is dwindling. in part because to combat air pollution, albania has bent the import of cars that are older than 10 years and don't meet europe for standards. but with so many more citizens dotting albania streets, i asked myself where it all began. let's deep dive into albanian history. to a time when dictator and the hall general to country and to best place to explore a communist history. and to rana is the central block for neighborhood. what is now home to entertainment, tourism. and of course night life was back down. the premises of envoy. ha josh and
8:47 am
his gang by what only very few people knew is actually that his favorite ghost car was a german class. albanians were bent from using private cars . and, and the ha wanted to be seen as a man of the people, which we now know was an elaborate mess. great. his luxury german saloon, which no longer on this is now parked in an old garage in toronto. i'm meeting with amelia pony, who today watches over one of the dictators best kept secrets. ah, this is like the original flag. dis mercy to 600 or a w 100 ty pullman was manufactured in 1966 that was custom made and personalized for roger. the price back down is equivalent to around $200000.00 euros. today
8:48 am
wasn't not in the museum. no, thank you. it's important and it would be great if there was a museum for such vehicles here. nature for vehicles that belong to the personalities of the past, be allowed to come. it would also be beneficial in terms of maintaining the machines because without proper cars storage, the condition of such cars simply deteriorates. furthermore, hodge only covered about 7000 kilometers in the car in 17 years, mostly on trips out of town and to its vacation spots. after all this, mercedes was a state secret over thank upper doors, et cetera. in fact, he didn't use the car very much of as it is just because he was smart and knew that it was too stark, a contrast to the lives of the people who were at the time, extremely poor that they would notice that's my he always walked from his villa to his office and this car was hardly ever seen by the common people at the time.
8:49 am
hopefully to not go. to get a full picture, we need to look at the history of albania. after world war 2 and the whole j ruled socialist albania, for 40 years, leading his people with an iron fist and isolating the country from his allies. he broke with his comrades and moscow, and dan would communist china after the death of german mouth. later, the increasingly paranoid dictator covered albania with hundreds of thousands of bunkers. many people ended up in labor camps, and albanians suffered extreme poverty and hunger under his leadership. there is a lot of is to me, in the car to say the least. how is it for you as, as of indian ish? i mean, it's an unusual feeling i'm endorsed you when you know that you're sitting exactly where a former head of state, a dictator sat at the back. that's a bit strange of course, dean. it's a dismay. this luxury car was not the only one used by hodges party and albania.
8:50 am
they bought 7 receipts. benson at a time, all $280.00 s. the else plots. hodges 600. saddam. i wonder if this car could be the very 1st mosquitoes in albania. oh, thank you. i think this car is the 1st point of reference for albanians and the mercedes benz brand, from the looks to the idea that it was used by the former dictator and was considered the most important safest and most valuable car of the time. of course it was an absolutely secret car until the ninety's. so he looked for the beginnings of mercedes and albania. i think the origins are right here. she thought of offensive, and they said would be good for lisa. now that i tracked down a small but important piece of the puzzle i carried on my quest to find out exactly what a tree pointed star rules albanian streets in
8:51 am
order to leave to run off, i need to get myself a car, which is how i came into contact with l must pepper humanely renzo at mercedes cars and says the brand is so popular here because the roads were demanding and used to be particularly bad. that the vivid mercedes fits perfectly with albanian roads. it's suitable for both off road and asphalt little mercedes as suitable for all road surfaces and albania. we for him, german cars, a good business, the car we ran cost 80 years a day, but already has over 200000 kilometers on the clock. so it's long since paid for itself. no wonder i must relies on receipt us. but where does he get them from? from folder from dusseldorf. esa cologne often is very good. i
8:52 am
disabled and you drove yourself? yes. oh yes. it's 2200 kilometer dusseldorf, albania. again, last year, i know the roads between germany and albania, better than here, between tarana and sheronda. i. both. our next stop is near the seaside resort of doris, with its picturesque beaches and albanians main port. oh, oh. oh oh, i mean dot m a 22 year old who loves vintage cars and is a mechanic in a place that some old bains column or cedar city. she act together with his father hassan, he runs a workshop only for cars with a star. from what year is the car a night? it is so well. 1987 hamilton. what looks good there. 2.5 lela
8:53 am
l. demonica issue or yours. yours is side ah and live the broom despair pots waiting to be to put to use in the next classic car restoration. and right next door is the workshop where they run their family business. business the good place here. so all the tool assembly here, you have all the, i like this. it's like a treasure here for mercy. this hudson has almost 40 years of experience as a mechanic and he let his son follow in his footsteps. at an early age. he's convinced that it's the quality of german cars, which made the brand so popular in albania, as well as if you look at that symbol, the messages i can drive around the world 3 times and i'm still a bens, otherwise there's no such thing as you drive around the world 3 times and everything is still there. there you go with them. and if the cars break down on him says it's always cheap to repair them in albania,
8:54 am
the desired or whatever. so parts are more cheaper than now. their cars live and find. sol below budget little people, mercedes old, 1000001 s plus plus the other. got the agree easy to maintain and robust, especially on demanding roads. these were ones to main arguments for buying mosquitoes in albania. but that's also changing in the country. so we drive to lake, always one of europe's oldest and deepest lakes in lin, when people survive on tourism and fishing, it's now almost a luxury to drive such big cars because they can afford less unless they tell me that mobiles of all of those little foggy schools will know the goals were there was wrong with my nurse. okay. closed while they were. thank you for watching me
8:55 am
harvey. oh no, no. no, no. that was god. boy who has met him. teach mccoy if you were discussing scores. minutes has been lost while they stay yet so mir sewland. ha! but as long as the wheels of their benson is still turned, they say they'll stick with them. the german brown still makes them proud and happy . inter ana for a w $124.00 fans. it's not so much about the money as it is about the details. dash, as he called himself, listened to. okay. but brings his car back to his native albania, to have it restored. because here they still take care of old cars like his they know these cars that they pay attention to detail when they deal with these college every day in the u. k. they don't want to see this cause any more. he's an old codger scrubbing to find somebody that still got the enthusiasm that's impossible
8:56 am
over there. now, all you get the people that do the job for a live in and is just wet. and my impression after this trip, certainly there are still many in albania who are crazy about the german cars. but more and more people are turning away from them and looking fall, turn a tips and cheapest solutions. and so the image on albanian rhodes that has been shaped by mercedes until now is likely to change to more car enthusiasts and automotive obsession. next time on red. ah, with
8:57 am
ah. with longing for the day. because it shows us have favorite travel destinations in gemini. and i know from the longest speech to the enchanting sly. i'm higher up in the bavaria now. because
8:58 am
sunday we will pack our bags again in 30 minutes on d, w. ah, the beijing spring of the late 19 seventies was a brief period of liberalization. and chinese artists seized the moment in a wall in the heart of the city, set the scene for a democratic movement. and communist on forties indulged them at 1st. bating spring in 75 minutes on d w. remembering benjamin farrah, our film on the dw documentary youtube cat. he was the chief prosecutor at the nuremberg trials. thanks to him. nazi mass murderers were taken to court after the end of the 2nd world. a man tireless in his efforts to stand up for
8:59 am
justice around the world. benjamin fair. and now on d. w. guardians of truth, my name is john dinner and i have paid almost every price of being a journalist in a country like turkey. taking all the powers that be they risk everything they want to kill me and they try many times. john dunder asked activists, journalists and politicians, living in exile to which and what drives them. it's too much on my shoulders, but i have to hold this weight because i'm responsible for the future. all country for the people far behind the boss, the courageous effort against corruption and political crimes.
9:00 am
in our series, guardians of truth and watch no on youtube, d. w. documentary ah ah this is dw news lie from berlin as ramadan and a fragile truce begins in sudan. witnesses say there is no let up in the fighting. more than 400 people have now been killed as the army battles paramilitary arrivals . also on the show a major donor conference in germany.
