amc stoops up the baby pants with formula one technology the the eye clinic trip and the plastic tub ruled the road in company left east. germany is fine. this time with an electric car. we met the man whose debt to income with the new story is to stretch class and it probably is crushed to the try. b is a part of the history start and it's really payments and hasn't cult status on. so it's great to take it into an electric future too close to feeling. there's another, turn this on the hop cause. so it's hard core fancy it has to make that knocking sound and stink. otherwise, it's not

a try be it's not, is this guy, but of course this electric version has a couple of practical benefits. let me look to 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 a to use that is no a site business. he actually runs a cleaning company, which is where he and his team developed a try the conversion kids his own 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 what? well, i'm and disappointed to feed most the time the version is

a no frills affair in keeping with the trip on style to 12 months. but some things you just can't replicate driving and electric try be is an entirely different experience for the contents of a bio comparison while 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 drive is either do the conversion themselves or have that do it. the 1st step is to drop the vehicle address for a while. 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

spitted upfront in a turbulent tongue. it's all gone down. an awful 9th is fun. preventative, is it so now on this, we're ready to re bid it as an electric car. i have to find as an across to appreciate what electric traffic really means. it helps to look back at least, germany's beloved and hated automobile. a bunch of dates feel the trombone came from the state, carmakers ox and the thing and stick out and was built there until the end of this to let's get by with the 1st chubby road of the assembly line on november the 7th. 1957 bias typically face a 10 year wage and a price tag could equal to reuse wages. if somebody was made of plastic fiber accomplish it, residents to steal show today is the crappy, was sort of 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 to call became the companion of east germans for generations as well. the others can, it was used for everything, making out, making babies, people slept, and then we'll have camped out in them and covered the big distances in them. so as long as they had enough spare parts with that nbc outside style, i'm it 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 our time? dude, sometimes the alternators, discarded on the side of the auto body of this machine to the home logging. the most savvy tribute drive this always carried extra spark plugs and loans as a substitute sunbelt. the car itself weighs in the just on the 600 key. those it's lightweight, makes it ideal for electric conversion as it needs less. so it gets hit thing

on clips model. we fit a 12 kilowatt motors, which means it has the same output as the gasoline power turbine to be of. and it's really important for the vehicle licensing that we don't change the performance issues of funders. find up on these and fall nice comb with done to on tapes, but these are electric batteries understood we put in 30 or 60 depending on the range or those sessions district. i think about them. yeah, i mean is this how strict here we see the heart of every e v the battery pack and keeps police like the original chubby design and the t as best electric conversion kit is and then frills just the batteries charges m p 's books in the back on the mesa upfront research while i'm supposed to i'm, we wanted to retain the trip bonds, simplicity. so in other words, no complicated controls and electronics and exploding on it to come. there are some

different components in problem decide. for example, here we have the main monitor class injury band and classic car style. it has a battery display which currently shows 100 percent buys build. this particular d i, y converts each event is almost ready. once he us back gives the added pumps and general set up a check. before tossing it onto the official testing center. we're done now the car can go up to the inspectors and of them. unplugged and ready to roll. the only thing holding back elizabeth each probably is plus 3 range. in the old days try the drive is faced a different kind of limit to them move. thanks to the cold who have all live or kind to boy, they never really were

in weird and wonderful varieties in gemini today for the growing share of electric edison. disclose the misfortune that people make the wrong equation, that a simple car means low price of this i unfortunately not to initial prize that is because of the high quality lithium batteries we installed that are now standard in modern cars. you to obtain high in the install, and that's the cheapest price factor. of course, that's just not the front. the hub price convert into it costs 22000 euros for the d i. y kits for 27000 costs to have a comp converted by the city sex team. the exhaust take opinion of the cost is even lead to the grace of try be safari, easing violins, where tourists can cruise around the classic sites. so it'd be, uh, been jungle and now as cool, sarah electric edition, the,

fun of it. that's all i don't normally should. i be all, but it's like obviously we gotta do this. why don't we take, we take this little box, test my stuff. it's nice to have the mig, that's quite a combination of this lab. the visa see escape 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. we, i got an open group, nothing scapegoats. the and i've only been mix, you know, and i left about the in the is that's the, the hired the pieces. you've got the need some missing mental afternoon on monday. so i'll just all kind of, i know it was except say the names and as on this, as soon as he was the nicest thing, of course, these are no ordinary wheelchairs. the spectacular stunts need reinforced. and spring mounted chairs pick up the email and just move on and the slide on the items here with us as well. so if you're going to look up with the springer and his eyes

done, okay, scales on and what's on us. the visa has used a wheelchair since he was 21. when he fell down a flight of stairs, leading him with paraplegia by the side took a foot the on the 4 foot, the odd. even $15.00 is up to the funding to respond to the invoice. and also the, because she wasn't whatsoever was the one to accept multiplan ones. uh. and it just gave movies or the longest the coins defense. from that point john, that'll be devoted himself to skating. he's since won the world championship in 20142 german championships. and finish the 3rd and several events in the us was significantly flu shots for me. they've been all from the life that's of the vin of in the contest this send us the meaning of the models to it. and then video,

my bestest game within british organizations who run and village all that's is usually that's demonstration dealt with at the end of our competitions, are plenty worldwide most organized by the wheelchair motor across society, skaters from across germany. last to the berlin open. the 1st competitive event since the started the pen demik loose or 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 not finding christmas pretty kids in the worst of the item for battle. houghton print was an open, worst of it was because they understood it picks up picking on it turn. you'll see there's nothing on the must in the at us and the of i talk would have you come down and on it's off on the same bus must be buying 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 tom bussey and in that side all side and void one, does he have a good job on this? doesn't seem good on is what is on that office, which is part of 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

drama drama, post marketing would be the delta dental of your tar personal party, but i do not want to offer you some to them. yeah. probably by re, by the master. let them. yeah. first or you not see dog. i jump on you the more show you the or the

folding chairs, books, it, when it comes down to the swans or the alarm bells or more, it's just our 40 mazda did go to model and put them back on the, on your boat. the

loan the for the mirror for knowledge on, on by and you're in by the work you've got the frederick gilbert to you or she most of the, the job you guys are doing even though you don't have a drop press will be obtained by on our model, so to bumper big part of the cost now to do. baldwin

looked on good to go. no, just 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 and b class models are being discontinued from 2026. so from then 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 that luxury car strategy is the c 43,

a certified sports card 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 will likely have to fork out at least $44000.00 euros 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 tower. 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 performance looks very impressive with its 2 liter 4 cylinder engine,

generating 408 horsepower. that's quite an achievement for a paltry 4 cylinders, less impressive or the high c o 2 emissions at 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 see 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 is going to want to

involve and we wanted to make a highly efficient and 4 cylinder engine with an output of, in this case, 300 kilowatts into it. but with the agility of a larger units, either woodenville, i can head on his cost window, making 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. the fewer cylinders to lower displacements and, and extremely high output explain more 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 called 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 engine. it's pantano scaling the amazon to take the 100 and put them because on

the any drawbacks fans of loud engines will find the sound experience. a bit new to that. my dad from their enthusiasm for the powerful performance of the high output. it's also a complaint often made of an formula, one cars of a 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 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 an cheese. 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
