new kind of collaboration, pruning a living while having a life. mobile, flexible and customized new work. in 45 minutes on t w. they want to know what makes with the john love and banning thing away from that. but i'm not even have to watch my own car and everyone with later holes in every single day. getting. are you ready to meet the german can join me, rachel stuart on d. w. i full electric power at v. y. d. o. russell acceleration with the gulf too. and complete freedom flying with solar power that and more now on red

with this is the b y, d at o 3 a chinese purely electric car that does a lot of things differently. but does that make it a better car? we'll find out today. welcome to ref. mm hm. oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, b y d short for build your dreams is one of the largest who energy vehicle makers in the world. ah, theater 3 has are really cool feature that is that you can change the direction of that central touch dispatch if you don't like it,

like that is simply press that button and it will slip by 90 degrees and then it turns the picture just like a tablet that you would use at home, and i mean, have you seen any other color that works? i haven't, and i've seen a lot of car ah, for dinner or driving impression in the b y, d at o 3 ease. pretty smooth. you feel some bumps, but it's nothing that you would consider a disturbing fact. so it's quite a nice ride. the after 3 has a powerful 1. $150.00 kilowatt output makes the dash from 0 to 107.3 seconds and can reach at top speed of 160 kilometers per hour. the exterior of the atto 3 has a fresh, sporty design without being too futuristic. with

a length of 4.45 meters, it slots in somewhere between b w's id 3 and id for the interior of the b y d at o 3. at 1st glance a looks quite cool. pretty futuristic. the steering wheel fee, it's nice. it has some buttons from the most important functions as you're used to in most other cars. what take some getting used to though is the door opener, because it's right here and you have to pull it back like this to open the door. if you don't know it, you will spend a lot of time looking for it because it's nowhere down here. apart from that, you have these vans right here. those look quite futuristic as well. they are a little loud if you close them, but you will not off the uses, so it's ok down here you have some buttons for most important functions, for example, for parking assistance or the all to hold function. but the highlight in the interior is definitely that's

a huge touch screen right here that will give you navigation and of course, music's bonafide da be bloss radio. everything you need, the only thing i don't really like is the fact that you have to adjust the temperature via the touch screen as well. ah, one annoying thing on our test drive was that the lane assistance? which warns if you're about to leave your lane is a little too motivated. which means it sometimes warns you a little too early and narrow roads. ah, the thing that makes me you id car, so special are the batteries instead of lithium ion battery said i use in most other electric vehicles nowadays they use a lithium iron phosphate batteries. and those are the only ones right now that can pause in the name test, whether is a nail driven through the battery. this is done in the nail penetration lab of the b y, d subsidiary fin dreams,

which is responsible for battery production. the so called blade battery pack certainly deserves its name thanks to its long, flat shaped synthesis. the nail penetration tests simulate short circuits in batteries under extreme conditions as anal pierce's a battery for the purpose of analyzing his performance in a situation in the industry, the test is the most stringent battery safety tests and caught up with the man in charge his dr. chow lee. he prepares both the blade battery and an n. c. m. lithium battery pack for the test. as soon as the nail is driven through the n c m, batteries, outer shell, the battery starts to inflate and smoke and then it explodes and burns at temperatures above 500 degrees celsius. in contrast, the blade battery emits neither flames nor smoke and its surface temperature does not exceed 60 degrees celsius. this implies that e b's equipped with the blade battery would be far less susceptible to catching fire even and severely damaged with another test sees

a $46.00 ton fully loaded, heavy duty truck roll over the blade battery pack. surprisingly, the battery survives the test without leakage, deformation or smoke. in the final step of the test, the plate battery is reassembled and loaded into a b, y, d, han, e, b. and the vehicle still functions. but the blade batteries have even more advantages. so again, 1st of all, higher volumetric energy density, e p. thanks to structural innovation, your blade battery boasts arrays with a high level of integration entry or structural elements. this increases space utilization from 40 percent, in the case of conventional battery packs, to 60 percent, or even up to 75.6 percent raising volumetric energy density of $310.00 some watt hours per liter. a main advantage of the blade batteries is that, unlike regular lithium ion batteries, they do not require cobol, which is already

a rare raw material. for the battery capacity of the at, oh great is are all and 60.5 kilowatt hours. and that will give you all 120 kilometers of her age. those are on the same amount that you have in all the cars. in that segment b, y, d invested around 1400000000 euros, and the fin dreams battery factory and cha ching, it. now produces an annual 20 gigawatt hours equivalent to around 200000 battery packs. there are rumors that the blade battery packs will power, other carmakers vehicles as well. one advantage is weight mm. according to b, y d, the battery sales account for 80 to 90 percent of the total weight of a blade battery pack. while in a conventional and c a battery pack, it's only around 60 percent. base current goes in at somewhere old $38.00. i was in euro's in germany and you will almost not find any other car

in that segment for that price. and especially with all the features you get in this car. during the euro and c a p crash test, the ada 3 received the full 5 out of 5 rating and 91 out of 100 points were passenger safety. as of now the at o 3 is based on 400 volts technology, like most of the other electric cars out there. but the platform that it's built on also supports $800.00 volt technology. and if this car becomes a success and the numbers allow it, they would also think about moving it in an 800 volt version. and that would then mean the car can be charged faster than it can be. now the display here is really small. it only has the most important information, so it's really minimalistic. and i think i like that

the at o 3 has a power output of $150.00 kilowatts and it can go up to 160 kilometers an hour. that is not exactly pass, but considering that you want to save energy, it's absolutely okay. and also considering at least where i live in the area in germany, you won't find a lot of space where you can go any faster than 130 kilometers an hour because either there is some traffic jam all down some road works. anything could be there, so $160.00 is more than enough with all and all the ada 3 is a nicely designed car that offers a lot of driving pleasure and some well thought out ideas such as the rotating touch display. the built in guitar in the door and of course the safe battery packs . the downside,

the door handle is counter intuitive. the climate control is touch base. and the lane assist is a little too enthusiastic. with this is that the fastest golf in bosnia and this is its driver from best life when i know dormant for know of argument that those will try to confirm the social net amendment of inch from to this last monday is perfect. i live in golf. yes. then at the one that's is my new

dad whips his car to ever fast track times. this beefy golf mark to is nick named v r. it's just recovered from an engine failure and the team has set up an important test strand. yahoo! what's a shot? more thought dice, what signs are going to ruin this ring? vod department, ms on an old dog w to suit so. so the more talk up with the show for the site, the nice bussey at the zone. dawn east. i see that the soviets are others. behold, will be the field hutton zone. the problem was all this, all this fall points avoid. dish english, one piston of fear. me de alotted loop you bought. so i thought, so i, boggy vendor we bought, swipe argued doesn't special. you bought 900 piss. it's that higher boost pressure that enables such monster power. the team wants to get the car back into record breaking shape. that means programmer is, neil skills are crucial. importance now. ah,

checking is every single kid checking parameters. ignition table feeling is it like last time? if he's here, we can drive the me before the final test, we visit our non in tune left. this is where the car mechanic lives out, his the w patch and leave and defects living in gold then known, lived in germany in the ninety's during the bosnian war in 2009, he opened an auto repair shop time for one last check before the test drive, the engine has been re mounted longitudinally after the water damage with a radiator placed outside the grill. for space reasons. one is go shooting in. oh crap, i'm ball hudson meeting tomorrow. i'll go there. most of i. yes. lane,

sorry. i wrote down from all the, the throttle body shop by that the kind how's that gonna go with the allison give all the construct. was there about complete, complete go for the sponsor for the week about i was or is this to be of home, this feeling for growth give leave. there is just one problem still with a fuel house. but of course, that's no big deal for these tuning. pros, ice and snow. we'll just for the irish we spoke recently, more thought evictions. adina has invested around $20000.00 euros in the gulf so far. pushing the car from 75 to over 800 horse power duct this. yeah, this is meant by being boston, molly, molly said about how it is for me out of gosh, device will be or i'm so i'll is it will be or your vote. i was, will be served before. do you want your call?

good evening. hi, dollars tools. i bought some for being up to stories about stuff with non specialty is the quarter mile sprint or will be a ring salon. the wife knows that of he's working with annoying, come on the right, the slides with dom icon, the legal tool. so if you're going to buy your fault, that's why it will be the best to say this week is really the most recent, initial for me, with and special used parts are of course not thrown away by the treasury with the stair broke the annoyance. why your father go condition he's reco

ah, for adam and many other policy and a v w is to go to car. adam has a long relationship with german cars. my out of the road to try the scenes without going to try, right. as i understand my last hug doing tells me, see this fall, we believe i have the money, i believe will allow vide, though, just one to follow. to get with us this being off, we are for him. i'm here for because he was coughing and just this week of mission i should call them and then i don't for the fear my job. i did talk to clinton buns issue, but the fear minute for the call from this being used as well as give li between for me it's time to head for the test track, an old air field, the testing doc out the

sizes. so i thought by the local, i've been asking these games or something, i guess the if you're going to tell her that they cannot she. mr. scott, it's an affair this to me or anyone's under the fits. these are somebody who might, these, who went out this i thought was it was the, the thing is to be stuff out. all those give out. mm hm. all is set for the dress rehearsal. then in 2 seconds, i'm flying from 0 to 100 kilometers an hour and just keeps on going in

with your so i'm still here with the successful test drive bodes well for even more new records for our non and his goal for to from policy. i'm with

with my body shop that next. so here with high yeah, now it was on you got it. so do you like to me more than one. was funny in almost didn't and then suddenly you must live on the fun to shake them. one thing for tunes and if on that thing and got the didn't what did is aneesha not got young?

was he thought none the less you were not the ration that you found done. she funding in relation to the relation of the tree or in i was a physical on the she will not be happy when that is my new day 51913 . it's a

lot more fun. i don't i don't want him to write him a restructured image then reason in fact like you right. when you get along? yeah. me mom i did i yes. my friends are last last i love to be in the same. if

not, you're saying that yes, you know, hold on just 11 and we none of what you love. one of the ones that are nice in use of you must come in and see what the weather bug you do you want? it didn't sound like she said yes,

she knew she was with the me a it's my dream to travel as far as i want without polluting our planet. and i feel like we're on our way there. it's wonderful. human jump up, teeth was a lay has been in the air for 5 hours, and he's covered 220 kilometers. word of it up

to leslie is on the 15th leg of his air. born to it. if hans his landing in co. yay! in the south of the country, the tourist intended to promote his project wings for the planet with what, what a flight rochard rode. the adventurer and engineer quit his job to focus exclusively on his solar powered glider wherever he goes. his invention draws curious onlookers who want to know how it works with my glider takes off on its own with this propeller. it may seem small, but it's a meter across in diameter. it's powered by batteries and they're charged by the solar cells on the wings. normally, but this is laura or charlotte burleson does. of course we do. it was the lay spend for 3 years working on the glider and put all his savings into the price of tiber.

i'm chris will make on franklin. i'm impressed central. it's very smooth. he completely integrated the solar cells into the wilderness shanella, i'm an engineer and pilot and i have an idea how much work went into this. it's fantastic and it makes you dream familiar. some feel of a dream of climate friendly flight without emitting a single gram of c o 2, both ordered though it's already happening so so you can fly law on because his preparing for the next leg of the term, the blur for what its role to swearing either i'll fly to more police to peek. so lou or overflow hoggard, baseball was not the engineer loves nature and technology. he used to work, designing underwater robots. once near the south pole. he watched a young albatross in flight before confessed. leave a little with with albatrosses in flight. are fabulous. some of the news they inspired me. as i said,

i wanted to fly like them one day and we'll go to come. so it's basically, ah, this year wasn't a, is touring france by air more than 2000 kilometers. it's how he imagines the future of travel or to him now 7000 feet above most ami show. many in the aeronautics industry think he's nuts. there was the day is convinced, even jumbo jets will one day fly powered by the sun alone emission free z if girl boy, of course it's hard to imagine a boeing or airbus with solar cells to video. but modern photovoltaic cells will harness just 20 percent of the energy in 10 to 20 years ago. it might be 40 or 60 percent on if you just the but that good lanes might be traveling just 400 kilometers an hour instead of $800.00. but that's enough for domestic flight ios manon is ms. recipient, is sheila phil during takeoff incl? yay! it was a late demonstrates his invention. conventional glide is need a winch or

a motorized plane to start at a loss of entity. but he was in there and makes it happen to be on his own. my dad, we were my toe to false is almost over for the aviation pioneers, already planning his tour of europe to get even more people on board with the dream of flying with the power of the sun. so out a good flight and see you next time on rev ah, with

working while on the road. oh, we need a laptop and a reliable internet connection that's staying home and still being part of a t all isn't annoyed as a new kind of collaboration. bruning
