6:30 am
they were united, an incredible story of loss and a desperate search for identity. adam anita, almost a fairy tale in 30 minutes on d. w. global ideas is on its way to bring you more conservation. how do we make cities greener? how can we protect habitants? we can make a difference global ideas, environmental series in global $3000.00 on d, w and online a day 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
6:31 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,
6:32 am
booking in this kia, 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 back of the kia and they've precisely what 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 adapted 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
6:33 am
a pretty impressive and we're going to find out by ourselves now. oh yeah, that walks forward. i mean, it's another 3.5 seconds. i think it's about 3.2 seconds as they tested. and that is really impressive for me for such a big and heavy s u v. 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 stage inverter that contributes to the machines quick response. for driving fast with the v 6 g t v on the racetrack it's really fun, but you should always drive it as well on the streets and therefore we are going
6:34 am
into stockholm. we are driving into sweden and we're going to have a look how this car drives in every day. behavior says g, t stands for grand theresa mo or grand tour. it should come as no surprise with 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 too gets key as 800 boat technology treatment. which means that at the fast charging station it's battery 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 holds, you don't 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
6:35 am
so narrow that the lane keeping assistant often just recognizes one lane. and so he just pushes you some times 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 to save energy. so what's the difference between the v 6 and the v 6 g t? yeah, the v 6 is a 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 feels like a different card 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
6:36 am
are talking about figures like from an posh tie, can s, for example, i mean, and it's double the price the tie can as, as double the price of the e v 6 g t. so why should you buy a tie? can s if the evie sakes 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 t is that 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 v 6 and i have to say, i really like it from the outside. i think it looks bardy, it looks good to me. and i really like the insight. i think it looks futuristic
6:37 am
with this to digital displace 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 of 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 even 6 anymore,
6:38 am
it's complete new car prices for the kia, easy, 6, 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 pd. read. there are various types of previous on the market . when most people talk about ease, they mean battery electric vehicles of b, e b, like this tesla, i'm driving a d v as a pulley electric vehicle, which has a battery where dos all that energy and this battery can be loaded again and again
6:39 am
by charging it now let's understand the common terms most b v driver says every day. so let's start with kilowatt hours. a german with a sausage. what a 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 meters going into the sausage is equal to that rate of what the energy is flowing into the battery. and that is what is called kilowatt 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,
6:40 am
you can charge us with an average of $3.50 kilowatt correct. now let's talk about m p s. this isn't a term that you are going to worry about at most external charging stations, but it doesn't matter if you're trying to charge your e v at horn. adrienne and black points. the amount of current going through the wire, of course and passed through an employer is a 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 an electric vehicle. otherwise, this is the consequence, a burnt socket all worse, but now on towards the force you to push. the current 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 model,
6:41 am
3 performance charge with $400.00 voice technology. but some e v manufacturer like he a portion audi, a switching to 800 word technology. twin able even faster charge thinking about charging e v. if you ever one now i 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, to more very important e v terms. so a, c and d. c charging this, for example is ac. charging a fee for alternating current is how energy is usually supplies. but dc or direct current is the energy that at least a took the key 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 changes it to direct current for the battery to store. but when you take the cable straight out of the charge,
6:42 am
you usually sending direct currents straight into the cost battery because a conversion happens within the external charge. so logically, this is usually much faster. i've just finished my charging had an ac charge with a type 2 cable. you wonder what type 2 cable is? stay tuned for next. how to 43. 4445. i was 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. a legend hasn't had sunny albania as proclivity for mosquitoes began in the 90s after the
6:43 am
communist bloc crumbled. as i discovered deb was only half the story, some secrets have just been very well kept. ref hunter for clues for that might explain albania mosquitoes obsession. ah, what better place to start than to capital? to run home to around 500000 people with and boasting and notorious mercy does clepsydra. ah, they are madly in love with the w $120.00 worth produce between the mid eighty's and the end of the ninety's. and eventually marketed as the eclipse. with slick old machines dead look, brand new tricks out in every respect and with more than
6:44 am
a few special features. ah oh, doesn't work if you if you do, doesn't traffic move? no, no, no. as it is impossible. again, there are 3 such clubs in albania, wood, 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 it's more unusable here in obeying of that it's made just for for fun. oh out and tells me these carts i usually and garages but went out they shine bright classical thing. i got the yes, they're covered and vaseline to make sure the tires don't look, use almost super doors from classical cars. sulisaga thing actually
6:45 am
with the club members on the streets. it's really hard to guess how many benson? they're on to ronna. so i decided to check for myself bound, make it 10 minutes, st. county at starting. now. ok. one hour. i'm lucky to get is 13453, and are all here, laces. driving. what's wrong here? oh, that's other than my read 40. now read. 40 what is it? 42 gun. 43444546 blunt from with 440. hey phil, the german number plates time is up now. is 100 streamers. here, just at this intersection here, 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
6:46 am
approximately 740000 registered vehicles in albania, 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 or market. it's just with the wrong 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 hodge, i ruled the country and the 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,
6:47 am
night life was back down the premises of envoy hodgen and his gang. i would only very few people knew is actually that his favorite go through the 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 mass. great. his luxury, german saloon, which no longer runs, 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. and this is like the original flag dis, mercy to 600 or a w 100 type. pullman was manufactured in 1966 that was custom made and personalized for roger. the price back down is equivalent to around $200000.00
6:48 am
euros. today. wasn't much 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, geological huh. 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 and a car in 17 years, mostly on trips out of town and to its vacation spots. after all this, mercedes was a stayed secret over thank upper doors. it's there. in fact, he didn't use the car very much of as if interest 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.
6:49 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 general 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 history in the car to say the least. how is it for you as, as all, bingham ish fact, dean, it's an unusual feeling dumb endorse you. when you know that you're sitting exactly where a former head of state, a dictator sat, that's
6:50 am
a bit strange of corresponding, it'll dismay. this luxury car was not the only one used by whole just party and albania. 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 man, let me take 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 at the time. of course it was an absolutely secret car until the ninety's. so if you look 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
6:51 am
what a tree pointed star rules albanian streets in order to leave to run off, i need to get myself a car, which is how i came into contact with almost peppa humanely renshaw, mercedes cars and says the brand is so popular here because the roads were demanding and used to be particularly bad. at the event. mercedes fits perfectly without banyon roads. it's suitable for both off road and asphalt 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 kilometer on the clock. so it's long since paid for it, so no wonder how much relies on receipt us. but where does it get them from?
6:52 am
from the, from her from dusseldorf, esa cologne often is very good. i is labeled. and you drove yourself? yeah. oh yes, 2200 kilometer too. so doff albania again. last year. yeah, i know the roads between germany and albania, better than here, between tarana and sir randa. i brought our next stop is near the seaside resort of doris, with its picturesque beaches and albanians main port. oh, oh oh oh, i meet on m a 22 year old who loves vintage cars and is a mechanic in a place that somehow bains column or cedar city and she act together with his father hassan. he runs a workshop only for cars, but to start from what year is the car a 1987. well, 1987. hamilton. what looks good there. 2.5 lela. l
6:53 am
demonica finishing for years. yeah. years his eyes. ah, and love the brill despair pods. waiting to be to put to use in the next classic car restoration. and right next door is the workshop. what a run dev family business does. the sticker plays 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 you want. if you look at that symbol, the message is i can drive around the world 3 times and i'm still a bens the young. otherwise there's no such thing as you drive around the world 3 times and everything is still there. there you go with them.
6:54 am
and if the cars break down on him says it's always cheap to repair them. in albania, do desire everywhere. so parts are more cheaper than now. their cars live and find sol below budget little people, mercedes, old, one man, one s plus plus the other. got to 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 and the countryside we drive to lake, always one of europe's oldest and deepest lakes in lin, where people survive on tourism and fishing. it's now almost to 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,
6:55 am
closed while they were. thank you for watching. movie heavy. oh no, no, no, no, that was god boy who has met and sees montoya, one of your discovered scores. minutes has been lost while they stay yet so mir through them. ha 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 anna 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 cause 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 mind an old codger. scrap it to find somebody that still got the enthusiasm that's impossible
6:56 am
over there. now all you get the people that do the job for a living and is just wet and my impression after the strip. 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
6:57 am
ah ah, with who oh the jewish twins, adam anita, was separated by the nazis and poland at the age of 3. they survived and never stopped searching for each other. more than 50 years later, they were united with an incredible story of loss and the desperate search for
6:58 am
identity. adam anita, almost a fairy tale me coming up on d. w. let's when towel o bell. mary, you set hands old into luxury, a radical sustainability concept, create unique pieces using old clothes to become an international trend. your romance. 90 minutes on d. w. o . trio taking on nigerian trafficking that works a lot to finish with the when it comes to trafficking nigerian women feel sick. so
6:59 am
they're always saying the same thing about you get to go without having to pay thing it obviously that's all align elementary. a clumsy ash and any succeed in restoring this young girls ability to treat. and it's something that really is price management that gives me known to what i do. the trio combating, sheeting dealings starts april 29th on d. w. o. time once again. ah, for a green update it's magic, it's the kind of magic a because this orchestra called the brain continuously adapt itself. and so we ask a few astute questions. are we smarter swarms or usa
7:00 am
glue? wouldn't causes monster waves. how powerful or your thoughts? however, we can control i 5, which makes us very power came. we have to learn a lot and we do that through play. questions about life, the universe, and the kind of like a superpower. our series of 40 to the answers almost everything. this week on d, w b o . s d w news, and these are our top stories. sedans, army says it is facilitating the evacuations of foreign nationals from the capital hall tomb. more than a 150 people have already arrived in saudi arabia by ship.
