the mind we are here on the side. so all of the topics, i'm much up to you from couple fixed a new culture. and in 15 minutes, let's say together. parts of our community life on the server is now on the electric powered classics info task for say, these all new e class right now on rad the, the i, a and munich is being shaped more and more by china,

which is exactly why we send a reporter from our chinese service to give you a special perspective. live over here at the international motor show in unit one of your biggest. and i'm going to show you my top 5 highlight items. there's any, you know, i'm kind of the wallpaper in 5th place and my ranking of top moments from the i a now is what i think is one of the most remarkable cars here. so trace the world's 1st now bullet proof electric car finally sense you to sort of focused on to, you know, treat this car has one of the highest levels of safety possible. and that's the goal to be on the outside. it looks just like a regular b and w y $73.00 go format. so you seen the itc, the familiar with them, try it out on the plate. it's only when you look at the tire lift. as you said, you realize that there's something special here or fluid as well. so what means? oh, to tom saw something cool you found me and politic. sions are often accused of asking

people to make their lives more environmentally friendly. in some quotes, that's why they themselves drive around in large gas guzzling machines, out of nasal. daniel cheese, what, how much it, how much one or 2 we got to be engaged with that can change with this car and i'll do it. so what's the 1st, i'm fully electric bullet proof car available to german politicians. 20 and don't want him to do what i thought so. so i a took my personal number 4 more and then from the i a say who is last generation. so whole, you guys, so you go one vote in alliance of climate change after vessel to a few that have been causing quite a stir around the world. i, you know, being excited since what to do to change in order to prove that the i a is open to criticism. the organizers invited the group to have a stand at the show company. but the group decided not to protest here. they didn't want to be cooperative, find the show, the choosing, the calling you easy assemble. so what does that mean? they chose to protest in other places in the looking stage for don't incidentally

in germany it's the muted police who have taken the harshest action against the last generation. so sure on your page from the to do whatever. so highlight of the show for me is that there are almost more stanz showcase and bicycles and cars. your green mobility has arrived in germany and it's not just the mean except that where you get to see such bikes, isn't cri, you cannot see on the true. here you can see bikes like this to then this puts a on, this isn't true for germans, the bicycle is an important part of the switch to green mobility. and so you seem to, for some issues of a lot, maybe in the future, we don't need cars at least in cities because we'll have these things that we'll down to the so does that work? so the whole kind of, you know, the car you see behind me is the 2nd biggest surprise at the show. are socrates and

that's useful to us. and you can use development over round 10 months by 30 students from the university of ein to open another everybody, you know, and i'm gonna tell you, it runs forever. i never seem to visions of why you mentioned on because it uses the same concept to as lego, based on sales. hopefully it's out of all the parts that you can see on the outside on don't like the green body panels can be replaced with new ones as time goes by that susie and like swapping auto lego block, right. so i'm gonna assume this means the car can be refreshed repeatedly, which is why they say it's a car that can be driven forever, right? how you base the j one as what? the most remarkable thing for me is that there were no combustion engine. cars within the execution area. i mean it just electric cars design your cheapest way to go into the i a has received a lot of criticism in the past, especially from environmental groups, which is why this year only electric cars were permitted in the home. yeah. yeah,

is it you legendary combustion engine? cars like the latest portion, 911 here, presented to mark the 60, the anniversary of the iconic sports car were banished to the open space in downtown unit. the i a is transforming into more environmentally friendly mobility show. where is funding a gas guzzler has become quite rare. the this 1952 v w micro bus route through the streets of the time without emitting any pollutants, then still has its original body work, but is powered by an electric motor. classic car fan and face garcia is the commercial manager of f co, a company that for around $7700.00 euros converts old cars to green power videos that we wanted to continue enjoying old car that was on the roof. but given

environmental conditions and our quality of life, it didn't seem responsible to continue the combustion engine to pass the company through the still. the fact that most classics had been well maintained by their owners means their excellent candidates for an electric conversion which improve their longevity and performance. and the time we really took advantage of the engine mount, the engineering and the cars, geometry so that the cars performance was the same as it was. but the combustion engine was looking at the main challenge is adapting the existing structure. well, also guaranteeing that the new mechanism for work, but daniel, the mechanical engineer in charge of the design, is sure that this method can convert any classic into an electric vehicle. for the guys already to pay to every vehicle comes with a set of challenges. you're going to see that in general, it's possible to adapt any type of vehicle are we try to optimize power delivery

and we try to improve the vehicles functioning without effecting its aesthetics or originality. i've seen, i think the loading i meant the new tech integrated into the original vehicle providing the user with all the comforts of driving a modern vehicle. what's more, the electric energy that power is the car is stored in rechargeable batteries. the desk you put improves how many batteries we use. for example, have 3600 cycles. it is here. and what does that mean? if a car like this has a range of 200 kilometers on a single charge, that means we will have a useful battery life of about 700000 kilometers anymore chosen very close around 12 to 15 years of battery life. i don't know what that is. the electric motor ensures there are no tail pipe missions and hardly any noise to pluses for a city that suffers from the worst traffic to as in latin america. well,

the number of registered electric and hybrid vehicles in columbia has been on the rise in recent years. the country is still far away from fully transitioning to e. mobility. really does have a great limitation, is the countries infrastructure and yes, in that sense, it could become a more globalized industry or become more comfortable for the people who are going to buy the final product. went up to the facts and opinion shared by oman, oral sticky oil the day, especially with private vehicles. not all buildings or houses have the infrastructure to allow recharging something either to the city side. yeah. and the concerns about re charging these electric vehicles is making the transition process even slower. okay. and what else needs to happen of this young fellow? blessed the country and be a good time or bidding a lot on the energy transition which will allow for us it's going to typically in the case of the commitment is considerable. or today, many of the buses are electric and also operate with low emission engines,

which contributes a lot to de, contaminating the air. and i think what all is well, up or down what you see more or less could be nothing tonight. other structural aspects also slow down, easy adoption. they're only about 40 charging points for city of about 8000000 people. but i'm place has a more optimistic vision video case as well for them. i think this is a way of demonstrating we can also work hand in hand with governments within the photo. so what i mean, we've got a one car surely isn't going to make us big of an impact as other measures might to the people it goes us. but when it's no longer just one car, but $500.00 or a 1000, i mean, we will certainly have made a positive impact towards the habitability of our cities. i love you. tell me the address of vintage vehicles converted to electric. the classic designs of the past with clean energy of the present motoring into the future. cars

a car. other phenomenon with millions of unique stories. that could be in a german coffin. we need you guys wherever you are. however, up here flicked passionate is our module and your stories, our currency, somebody. oh yeah. we have fun cars from germany and the craziest place all across to this one here is it's all dictated from albania, that officially never exit route one, so sorry. and we try to figure out why we feel such a strong motional only with these machines just story 2 ideas caused by itself and millions and millions of use that. com. and most of all the fact that makes us better. this video made me add to my buckets. yep, that's true. all thing is love. so close to

watching. keep going. well, thank you for the question is now flash. if we go next, right to wherever your sentence your stories and your crazy card tuesday is. let's catch up soon, sunroof the mercedes for generations. it's been the benchmark for people around the world ripped as around. ringback with the 8 and the new world fair to say that and if they're just such a glass of a vehicle that embodies the severe it of the era in which it was made and with them . and which continues to be a source of inspiration for car designers. manufacturers and, and losing, so you'd have to have money and the mercedes benz e class of sleep, which in 3 decades has achieved massive success worldwide,

especially in the air of the car marketing. not, i mean, what's the secret to this success not to be from a civil war that nothing to do on the field today, we're in vienna to experience one of the latest and most powerful models in this category. and we're taking the e 400 e for matic, for a test drive, and trying to see how good the car is out if you might have to offer pre help. welcome us, mercedes, a german car brand with over 100 years of heritage, the vehicle that there's the 3 pointed stars, the very up hidden me, i've been destructible. and the e class is beloved all around the world. let me know that if we need to make them to see which of us doesn't know the vein to mercedes, 3 pointed star can be the very same star that finds itself on the grill of this especial car. the image of the e $400.00 informatics with the, the star is the symbol of strength of longevity. be also a symbol of trust in the car itself to keep them even after countless kilometers. and it's especially loved in the arab world. i've got yeah,

this is my treasure for the engine is very old. i have definitely at least 40 years old the today that was the credit runs. my name is mohammed bobo. i've been driving taxis in tennessee since 1954. when i come sold the up or dropped. medina, we took the best and most expensive to key. i've ever driven. was the mercedes 250 . there is a vehicle in markham before the state farm. entirely honest. i've never driven in mercedes before and it's exciting that my 1st experience driving one is in a new country now in new territory. you know, and in the newest mercedes model, i'm clear that it also means that this very exciting experience is about takes me straight onto the auto bond with the city of

the pool, about the, including the adapter, driving on the autobahn from vienna. and here we enter the country side of the fee, the car work smoothly and safely with the tech, giving me precise warning signals and all curves and the streets. quoting difficult no matter how narrow they may be, what i show it, i'm kind of familiar. as i said, we're in vienna at around lake noisy and it's summer, mid summer and we had a very, very hot test day, almost air of conditions. maybe we shouldn't have switched off the air conditioning favor of engine noise because the ac actually works really well. a lot of the sweat pouring off my forehead is probably clearly visible in this picture, but it's always feeling reports. we're at the mercy of the camera and he had a buddy of the so let's venture across

a near on charter territory to get a better idea of this e class hybrid the. and of course, let's have fun driving the miles of corn field surrounded by monstrous windmills. the kind of notice that the as well as the test driving this car was an all of the landscape. we drove through to landscape where greenery meets technology and clean engineering goes on something that's reflected in the car itself. but you also produces clean energy and consumes it in the bid to be more environmentally friendly mobile. now this plug in hybrid mercedes achieves a range of around 100 kilometers with its electric motor without having to switch to its 2 liter combustion engine. but more of that later and the fear,

the fear that it was sitting in this car for the 1st time brought back memories of my early childhood and youth case. i knew that and how my friends and i would invite to sit next to the driver as if it was some sort of honor or privilege. but it seems that childhood dream is coming true and i'll be at a bit late. but even at this time, i'm right behind the wheel of this very luxurious cargo alpha, the. here's the money behind the if this car hasn't woken many memories and especially memories of my childhood memories of my grandfather of when he would take me on trips as a small child, well visiting his friends of the car. and it's gonna be up until the tax season to commute and they were off in the same category of cars. because then i also remember many trips on board most vehicle with friends and fellow students from the region where i grew out at the kind of for the bundle feet and specifically trips

and the middle class on or the e class mercedes that he's an enter. yeah. a little more towards the thought. oh, it's a minute. sure. and i'm sure millions of people around the world feel the same way i do. mercedes is a global phenomena. the class alone has sold over 16000000 units since 1947. this makes this model series the most successful mercedes of all time present the guy, minnesota. what's the secret to this monumental success like so folks guides the secret of our successes that we have reinvented ourselves again and again with which we cover a large number of different customers, whether they want something sporty or elegant, or modern. define what they want in the class, you know fit. how does mercedes wants to position itself in the arrow market as a sustainable brand? as a luxury oriented brand or a manufacturer of strong engines? it's cut out in 2023. will have a car on the market that will have everything up in from

a 4 cylinder. petro and diesel is, and a $600.00 or petro and diesel. we will also have hybrid plugins. and i also think maybe it could be something for the air of region, a bridge at some point into the electric world, for example, this plugin hybrid that they see it only thing that's the bottom of this car that i'm driving today can be charged for being a matter of course that can be re fueled with the regular fuel on the right hand side look forward to. but it can also be charged with electricity from fast charging stations using this port on the left side of the in europe or in the arrow bridge. or in areas where there are no fast charging stations, not collecting this household adapter, can also be used to charge the car at home, trying to figure out a few minutes. and of course, digital communication is also important. the mercedes benz user interface is intuitive, but sometimes overwhelming with every conceivable app on it and $27.00 languages on offer alone. mercedes? yes please. what's the temperature outside holidays

right now it's sunny with a temperature of $28.00 degrees celsius. why should you mean that i shall see how we feel good. thanks, mercedes. sure. good. thanks. mercedes benz, i have the show, grandmother said, is that the you know, things needed well are whether expert is pretty chatty. not having the feel, mercedes. let me tell you what arabic dialects. how can you speak? i love the german national team though, even though i used to print to sports well if we could get that up and clearly there's room for improvement. but what's the navigation system like up are away as jerusalem mercedes or to show the guidance is not yet activated. the young as

so thanks mercedes benz. that's just normal bobby i will. okay. then at least it was fun to try it out naturally. we don't really want to drive all the way to jerusalem. instead, we want to really go deeper into the 4 hundreds driving dynamics and put its quality in check under the microscope. and then the water as you mean it was great, is that the rear wheels and then also turn along with the front wheels. thanks. the mercedes rear axle steering for the low speeds up to 4 and a half degrees warner. and at higher speeds they move up to 2 and a half degrees advocate. that's the people who haven't tried this out yet. who will be very impressed with the system as was the case with me. agility and comfort. the rear axle steering is a merc, trademark and kennedy, and also financially if i had to describe this car in 3 words or accurately describe my 1st impression of it, i would say it's classic, sporty, and intelligently what vecchio?

and now for the older generation, the father of the grandfather and the great grandfather of the class, much i don't know of christine, perhaps closer to heaven for old car lovers and procures must have been yeah, ma as 170 market. the beginning of the production of the class of cars from the german comic or the that there are other cars and like this model been that have had great success around the world. i think i have the vision, but there's another model there's, it has to be the opposite. this 11 for like, sold in record numbers in the arrow bro. well, me up for auto body shop that we have to go for the ottoman obviously. in fact, you see there are a few taxi's on the error world that if managed to clock more than 1000000 kilometers, i mean you can, you imagine that i can have, it will come when i open my help up getting get a horse. there are several model exposure to them, but this model is especially important to move those beyond what some it was with this model in the year 1993 that mercedes officially use the class name. that's me,

me. yes. and so much of the ends this model now is the latest a fucking why should, in years of development, the heritage that culminates in this new 2024 model have the 30th and i was, i'm, is that a point and now we're going to test drive this powerful model for you, the mercedes, w 124, and the 4 of them. and if i can, especially if i was a little worried when i've been asked to try my hand to driving old machines, especially those without automatic transmission. and i'll click on the initial aspect, but this car box, so w 124 deals and wonderful to drive. you mean it looks simply beautiful, actually on the shoulder. it also looks just like the cars people, my generation are used to be thought without a. i don't want them to the ged, but it doesn't about to be here. so you're on after just

a few minutes behind the wheel and i don't know. i have to say that for i machine built 30 years ago, um and it drives exactly like a modern car, you know, look about. so it's fair to say that it's ahead of its time would be a little close. it's for this reason that i believe a cheap, high level of success around the world, including an error countries where you have to give you how to a lot of them. mean, if you do it at on the island since driving the classic is so much fun, i find myself asking whether the newer models also have what it takes to some day become classics. is spinning. but i am convinced that it will continue to be successful in the future and also that there will be classic vehicles in the future . but i think that the know how that is needed will change this. know how it has been new, destroyed, and then you need fewer people who are familiar with the sheet metal work. how far you need someone who is familiar with software to be able to continue driving and fight this vehicle as a class. and then the, the vital, especially if you had

a choice between all of these cars that we see here for the class. that's it. and what would be your pick things, auto sleep i live in saint cloud. i love all of our classics. and i would say i loved each of them for different reasons. i loved the rottenness of this car and i loved the elegance of the tale fans. i loved the dark green color of the w 114, and then doing good, glean window. but then if i were to drive one, i would say the pontoon and told him about that because it's like a mixture of a classic vintage car with a steering mount, a gear shift. obviously a big move, for example, that requires a 10th of driving, and at the same time you can cruise along without having to concentrate too much. well any, i mean i would choose the pontoon and then on and you choose it over the new 2024 model knowing whatever sponsored. fantastic. it's crazy that well, you're speaking to the spokes person for mercedes benz classic. so i will always choose the classic vehicle because i have an affinity to them. but i have also driven the new e class and i have to say it is an impressive vehicle,

but my heart beats for the classroom by the helps. like for the classic the just and then just ask for the reason for the success of how well the to meet the answer is clear. when i look at their pioneering mentality in the, your site that prevail, that mercedes back in the day that the kind of tell you that and the funny i, i wonder whether this success story can continue as well. and kind of, it's hard for me to say, so that was because mercedes has begun to focus on the elements of the luxury, the non luxury model, this one which i believe cater to a specific group of people any but a look if you haven't got those let them know we'll have it on, on those sort of kind of a homo. what would that a study? and then also when we think of the rape and region on the lines or even more complicated, one does not in a sense, it has a variety of terrain, but as demanding put up in the cost of the car plays

a very simple difficult role abilities. and a lot of these models are priced upwards of 55000 barrels, lob the old and more human. a going to have been with that before the 15th of july and medicaid, the sustainable mobility and more next time on rev the,
