and it says stop some one, move bangladesh, it goes, facing the country to the getting pushed back even from their own family. shows on the slicing social loans. seeking this self determined douglas from drudgery and abuse the oldest fist on d. w. the today on rid of the photo and mobility show, the iconic try me, gets a new electric lease on life wheelchair ride. as you've never seen before. the albany, a taxi that's still going strong after a 1000000 miles on the road. and

amc stoops up the baby pants with formula one technology. c the, the eye clinic trip and the plastic tub ruled the road incoming left east. germany is fine. this time with an electric car. we met the man who debt to think of with the new story is to stretch class discussions to the trump. he is a part of the history start and it's really famous and hasn't called status. so it's great to take it into an electric future, too close to feeling better than others and turn this off the top cause. so it's hard. core fans say it has to make that knocking sound and stink, otherwise it's not a trophy is not,

is this guy. but of course this electric version has a couple of practical benefits. let me look for and see the search for the guns. i am driving the whole time in 3rd gear and you know, because i don't need to really accelerate. it makes it feel a bit like an automatic the what began as a hobby from that to us. that is no us site business. the actually runs a cleaning company, which is where he and his team developed a trap. the conversion kit. keep us on go ahead, bite wings is i, we never wanted to come up with some kind of makes ship solution by it or what it was for the commercial market, which meant providing a version that was easy to use and performed well on the road. yeah, and, and kept the customer satisfied. go ahead. well, i'm and disappointed to feed most the time, the version is

a no frills affair in keeping with the turbine style the 12 month. but some things you just can't replicate driving. and electric truby is an entirely different experience for the contents of a bio comparison when we're doing 70 and the noise you hear is more of the transmission than the car itself. the electric because it is possible with an each event will not stop it out as a prototype in 2012 is now extended. packaged drivers can either do the conversion themselves or have that do it. the 1st step is to got the vehicle address. now it's ready for the electric power train and keeps all the gasoline engine parts no longer needed, have been removed and seen out and shuttle out of the engine and attachments and the exhaustive, your original ignition. they're all gone it and the fuel tank. and that's actually fitted upfront in a gervantes tongues. it's all gone down in an awful 9th. it's fun. preventive is it

. so now we're ready to reboot it as an electric car up to fine. and it costs to appreciate what electric travel really means. it helps to look back at these gemini, beloved, and hated or so my bill. a bunch of dates, feel that your bond came from the state carmakers ox in the ring, and stick out and was built there until the end of this to let's skip out. to post chevy road of the assembly line on november the 7th. 1957 via is typically face a 10 year weights and the price tag could equal to reuse wages. if somebody was made of plastic, find the composite resin due to steel shortages. the crappy was so a manifestation of the shortages. it typified east germany's economy in gem and trip on its means companion or satellites. inspired by the soviet sputnik, the world's 1st artificial satellite launched into open that same yeah,

sure. and to try be the call became the companion of east demons for generations as well. the others could meet was used for everything, making out, making babies, people slept, and then off, camped out in them and covered in big distances in them. so as long as they had enough spare parts with them, nbc, i was outside of them and made out of the wheel when people came back from a trip. the 1st question was not how was the vacation, but did the car hold though? i did sometimes see alternators discard it on the side of the auto body of this machine to the home logging. the most savvy tribe, the drive is always carried extra spark plugs and loans as a substitute. sun belt, the car itself weighs in a just on the $600.00 key, those it's lightweight, makes it ideal for electric conversion as it needs less. so it gets hit me saying

the eclipse model. we split a 12 kilowatt motors, which means it has the same output as the gasoline power turbine to diesel. and it's really important for the vehicle licensing that we don't change the performance. you should have fun response of these before i ask whom we've done to on tips, but these are electric batteries. we put in 30 or 60 depending on the range of those sessions district. i think about them. i mean is this helps recruit here. we see the heart of every e v. the battery pack and keeps police like the original chevy design, mathias best electric conversion kit is and then frills, just the batteries, charges m p. 's books in the back and the mesa about from research while i'm supposed to i'm, we wanted to retain the trip on simplicity. so in other words, no complicated controls and electronics and exploding on it to come. there are some

different components. the problem is how, for example, here we have the main monitor class engine. we've been in classic in the car style . it has a battery display which currently shows 100 percent buys build. this particular d i y converted to a band is almost ready mathias bag gives the added pumps and general set up a check before passing it on to the official testing center. well done, good. now the car can go up to the inspectors and have them unplug and ready to roll. the only thing holding back, elizabeth each probably is about 3 range. in the old days try the drive is faced a different kind of limit to them. thanks to the cold who have a live or die and 2 boys, they never really were assume the freedom hyatt,

the lowest notes, freedom came in 1989 when the wall came down and on the properties drove across into the west noise and all that was freedom always of fi, really they were assembled, business management, centralized economy, and material shortages monitor. they'll trust the food if the will meant the end of the try. me to that which he is among the workers at the section ring factory. as the last of the 3000000 units rolled off, the production line in 1991 treviss would become increasingly red in the unified gemini, be full, then no sound. you come back up on its way to increase your data. now got a passionate fan base. i was gonna suggest, and there are even considered a financial investment as to how to unlock it. they've practically become vintage model. i find lots of fans or fixing them up to look better than when 1st built out . i should know. so that definitely gets the emotions going. i think trust them with children are feeling fine. there are still around associate thousands treviss

in weird and wonderful varieties in germany today with a growing share of electric disclose the misfortune that people make the wrong equation that a simple car means low price of this. i was unfortunately not to be initial prize. that is because of the high quality lithium batteries we installed that are now standard in modern cars. you to impact seen high and the strong, and that's the cheapest price factor, of course. but that's just not the frontier hub price coming into it costs 22000 euros to the d. i. y kits 27000 cups to have a cock invented by the city. 16. the exhaust tick opinion of the causes even led to the grace of try b, safari, ease in violins with tourists. can cruise around the classic sites of the oven jungle now as cool. sarah electric addition to the

it's like god is do we gotta do this? why don't we take we take this little box test my stuff. well, it's nice to have the mig, that's quite a combination. obviously. lab visa seascape forwarding is folks of lifestyle and of sports and encourages others to try it, offering workshops and towards across through many months here in berlin, where ski photos show off their skills. very, i got an open group, nothing scapegoats. the and i've only been mix, you know, and i looked as though people in the is that's, do they hired the thieves? was you out there and i need some of this, a mental stuff. none on my job as well. kind of, i know it was 60, i've seen a names and as on is actually going to give us the nicest thing. of course, these are no ordinary wheelchairs, spectacular stands need reinforced, and spring mounted chairs like, i think i must move on in the 500 items here. but if you think about what you're

going to do is look up with the springer and he's like done, okay, scales on and what's on us. the pizza has used the wheelchair since he was 21. when he fell down a flight of stairs, leading him with paraplegia by the side, put the on the 4 foot, the on his own side is up to the funding to a spot to buy in the us. and also the because she doesn't whatsoever. the superbowl . she's the ones that have multiple ones uh and it just gave movies or the longest, the coins defense. from that point on that we've developed it himself to skating. he since won the world championship in $2142.00 german championships and finished 3rd and several events in the us was a significantly flu shot for me. that would also be my thought to the, to the vin, of in the condo. so just send us the munitions, the model, sort of the video, my bestest game. when british organizations run and village all that's is really,

that's demonstration dealt with. yeah. to and they were a competition so plenty worldwide, most organized by the wheelchair motor across society, skaters from across germany plus to the berlin open the 1st competitive event since the started the pens at mac level. so it was a member of the jury. after all, as a multiple champions, he's a role model for young people and not just when it comes to performing that's fine and christmas pretty kids in wasted us. the items for middle hon credit was an open, worst of it was because they understood it picks up cuz i'm going to turn the, you'll see there's nothing. i'm hoping you must in that us of the of i talk whenever you come down and on. it's off on the same bus must be about it, a ton of nice. the wheelchair skating is classified as an extreme sport. hardly anyone leads the whole without freezes, but to guard against more serious injuries,

especially to the head and neck. everyone wears how miss san protective gear that way, even the youngest can convert their dedication and motivation into results in time with you in that side all side and void one. does he have a good job on this? doesn't seem good on is what does on that office? what is, what is the vision has the sun set. so for berlin, there's a sense of community inclusion and accomplishment amongst all the wheelchair skaters that the events living proof of the power of the mind to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. the

postmark cannot be the delta dental of your char personal party, but do not do our office so to them. yeah. probably by re, by the master. let them. yeah. first or you not see dog. i don't mind you the name of the

book here. so you won't be able to come up with your support there. so just hold on to just search for w boss. interested in the dental office to get the opinion that meant a very good one . yeah, most of the people go to bed from the law office of

folding chairs, books it when it comes down to the swans or the alarm bells or it's just uh, 40 boxes, you go to model and put them back on the phone, your phone, the

loaner margie the the yeah. show me a phone on the phone number and you're in by the defector gilbert to you. for sure . most of the, the job. do you guys are doing, even though you don't have a drop, this will be up to him by on or a month. so to the big part of the call?

well, to do. baldwin looked on good to go. no, just one more. the to the this is a m g, 's, new c 43, a 480 horse power c class. mercedes is seeking to establish itself as a more exclusive luxury brand. and the entry level a and b class models are being discontinued from 2026. so from that on the c class will revert to being the brands smallest model. but how does the suit up see class available as a sedan or where i can fit into then luxury car strategy is the c 43, a certified sports car or more in

a market cargo carrier. its predecessor was the 190 sedan, launched in 1982 and tapped the baby bins in the us due to its 4.4 meter length. the 190 and its successors were successful contenders and the german touring car championships before withdrawing in 2018. the a m g based model at the time, the 190 e with a 2.5 liter costs were the engine, was limited to just 500 units today and original condition evolution or evo to sales 430-0000 euro. the one ninety's era as the smallest merc was ended in 1997 by this curious looking sub compact with some critics questioning its mercedes credentials. it was the birth of the a class. the, however, the car makers venture into the less lucrative and less glamorous sub compact

segments is set to end after almost 3 decades. from 2026. anyone looking for a low price, mercedes, we'll likely have to fork out at least $44000.00 euro based on today's prices. for the c $182.00, a while mercedes promises luxury on 4 wheels, it's a empties job to provide exclusive visuals and power. the range of options fashioning the desired look. and they've added race car engineering to give the 4 cylinder engine the right kind of performance. the on paper, the c $43.00, it's performance. looks very impressive with it's 2 liter 4 cylinder engine

generating 408 force power. that's quite an achievement for a paltry 4 cylinders, less impressive or the high c o 2 emissions said more than double the 2022 in the standard. the, with the cars loose function drivers have 500 newton meters of the torque available . that rockets the c 43 to 100 kilometers and now we're in 4.6 seconds. not bad for a 4 cylinder unit. the blue secret behind that surprising power is a little electric turbo assistance courtesy of formula one the i was gonna say to

want to involve it, we want it to make a highly efficient and 4 cylinder engine with an output of, in this case, $300.00 kilowatts indian part, but with the agility of a larger units of development. oh, i can do that on his cost, which will make more to us dollars. we look to our colleagues from formula, want to be homeless and they'd faced the very same conflict at the start of the hybrid era and start the fewer cylinders to lower displacement and, and extremely high output. explain where lives. the classic turbo charger needs exhaust energy that the turbine wheel transmits to the compressor and then gradually builds us with the lines. but depending on the size can lead to a delay. cold turbo lag, the like. this is where the motor comes in. come to instead of waiting for the exhaust gas energy or you can use it for instantaneous boost pressure a lot at work and you get feedback from the regular engine a lot sooner. um, which gives you a far more spontaneous and very linear response to the entire engineering pantano scale in the office on a 120. because on the

any drawbacks fans of loud engines will find the sound experience a bit new to that's my deaf and their enthusiasm for the powerful performance of the high output. it's also a complaint often made about the formula, one cars of the hybrid era. the c $43.00 is fuel economy is also nothing to get excited about. although careful drivers could squeeze 9 leaders per 100 kilometers out of it, which looks good compared to other high powered cars. the this 40 station wagon can accommodate between 460 and 1480 leaders of cargo. in line with an m g tradition, the black with hands of red interior is 40 looking. the seats have been reworked for better lateral support and stability,

including on longer journeys. the steering wheel has an excessive array of controls . perhaps a m g. fans will like the high tech look, but it seems to be an acquired taste. to sum up, the new see class is a comfortable mid size end of this think least 41. thanks to am jeez 43 engine and both styling but prices for this new baby bens are steep starting at some 73000 euros in germany. we've reached the end of the road for now. see you next time on risk the
