ups in the bottom of the election is rejected by the people and these lumnick republic and cannot sell it to them about to. and with that now you're up to date here on dw news to stay with us if you can. i'm sarah kelly, and thanks for watching the can you see what old car tires have to do with you production? here's a hands on so really indeed much now on youtube. is this the end of the road for classic cars?

does the fight against climate change condemned these moving pieces of history to the great see must be fine. um, it's disrespectful and ignoring the way the reference for things built in the past is now simply tossed aside distribution. you only solution is to use to some positive fuse or are these seemingly in marshall machines and integral parts of a climate friendly future? we have to address this issue of sustainability that clearly is the same of interest as a future generation. kind of electric drive, train or a synthetic fuse, provide a solution i could imagine some nice markets and the old time is one of those things markets. but if you could indeed play a role the time, there is no progress without an understanding of the pasta. is driving

a classic car, a more sustainable than buying a new car. because pencil preservation rather than replacement they, i've rejection all the use and throw mentality to producing cars. has a major environmental impact building a modern e. v, for example, produces 26 tons of c o. 2 emissions by the time of classic could in this amount of pollutants, is owner could theoretically drive it for an average of 2000 kilometers a year for 46 years. but is this the final nail in the coffin for the classic car? of course they can survive easily to provided one understands what they really are . classic cars are witnesses, awesome ability that have survived the years and have shape or lifestyle more than anything else. and things are in motion in the classic car seen at the last meal. amelia, the traditional italian race for historic vehicles. mercedes entered cars that were powered by

a fuel synthetically produced c o. 2 new to appeal that can be used in conduction engines. i think there will be always or holes in the future uh, events or racist like the mil amelia because this is how the whole culture of our history of our heritage. so therefore, we also prove this, you know, we drove all our classic cars with synthetic fuel with use and proof that it is possible even at the long endurance race like the middle amelia, we drove over 2000 kilometers risk if fuels without any problem can save classic cars on the claimant. some politicians seem to like this idea as to it because shouldn't be filled with the fluids so that they have the ability to the use of the street in the

historic condition. and even critics seem to agree seeing if using classic cars positively and fuels are super expensive, super inefficient and they will not be an option for the mass market. but i could imagine some nice markets and the old time is one of those markets. but if you could indeed play a role mercedes less no stone unturned in their efforts to ensure their head start for you, cause we're claimant friendly at the middle, emilia, the mercedes, 300 esl from the 1950s was the company's for over 2 sides of the kilometers by a tanker carrying if you that the car needed you feel is the solution for classic cars because you always have to carry that. if you with you on road trips to a specific network of the few stations doesn't exist. and i don't think it will be built any time soon since they are a few more than just finish solution for our classic cars. it's a discussion that has been designed in europe at the political level for some time

should if use in combustion engine cars find a place in sustainable claimant, friendly mobility. the convinced that you the side, if you, it's all. so the filling station to the booby markets for the fuse. but of course, for a higher price, low to, to process they have would use 80 cure if use to go is h i f into the. so was the idea behind that lot about 2 sets of all cost is ever put, use us to to do our question. once to the liver, you fuse to their customers so that they can drive with the system or a cautious issue. just as a bed, while some people want to hold onto their traditions,

others are radically breaking with the creeds of the past. the traditional classic car riley miller, emilio and i also have an eco class, the middle, amelia creek, in which electric vehicles also compete. as a response to the global electrification of mobility classics are being converted into a powered cars. back in 2015, a german company called e cap. mobility began converging classic cars, tvs by putting electric drive trades and them which means and 1930 h d k. w suddenly feels very different to drive the audience. yes. ok. this car is now 80 years old and it's having another revival. one sits in the open, enjoying the scenery with out the noise. i don't believe that with a combat classic like this. i am likely to influence climate change. but this might take us all in the general populace that it's possible to change things if you want to. it's a super in the belgian company months. so automobiles specializes

in turning mercedes classics from the w $1.00 oh, $7.00 series made in the seventy's and eighty's and to modern electric cars. the for me it's a combination of the passion for cars and specifically for mercedes cars and the passion for the, the ongoing energy translation in. i'm back and lower sex me. carl hines, the couple still regularly motors through the streets. and here's mercedes benz victoria from 1894. it's is the oldest registered car in the world. and for him it's entirely unthinkable to convert this machine with a switch to electric power. the further that's as i would consider this, a huge scene. it's a demonstration of disrespect and ignorance of the way the reverence for things created in the past is now towards the side for and new technology is mixed in the

corrupt the original machines in this give it somebody's cost. there are a powered classics still considered real classic cars for philip, but yeah, i mean, this is a question of faith. even though his b m. w was only built in the 19 seventy's to him removing the petrol engine would be sacrilege verified in buffalo. and you would take away the hots off the car in a b, m w. the engine has always been the focus be as the name bmw w suggested supervisor, someone told them back. and if you replace the motor, you would be got seeing the cause you would be taking away its heart and soul them a face. and that one flavor even in the face of potential driving body on the internal combustion engine, cars on the band. then i would say i'd just let the cost stand by the $10.00 and then it would just be a cultural asset or a piece of history. that stands still states that he does this in the very essence

of the vehicle is that it moves if it's simply stands in the museum, then a very important characteristic on the car is lost. it's important that these vehicles are preserved and remain visible and running conditional as the museum on wheels, so to speak, as well in this museums. it says i'm the museum on wheels concept. assigned a passionate, fun base all over the world. classic car event such as the cars odell against or the middle amelia, in italy, pebble beach in california or in goodwood, in england. attract, hoards of people and historic vehicles have long since become an investment piece is that you are treated like shares an electric motor and such a vehicle would result in a drastic dropping the price. the, the kaiser are no longer true to history buttons arbitrarily modified. if it's like, if you were to re touch a painting by the old mazda is for it to conform to modern taste. to meet the value of a classic car lies in the preservation of the original technology might only get another

taishan to buy cars with older technology face. other issues, the new amelia as original route has been modified in recent times because an increasing number of old times of driving bands and environmental, harmful combustion engine sheets, a problem that also concerns politicians. the future of classic cars is also important to the european parliament in process to reduce costs. and here you can tell them what product in terms of the so called did for us x religion was to reflect about definition, what is 2 or 3 colors. so this is really crucial and important because if you are asking for exemptions, a place to agree, could you have to be crystal clear? what does this to a good cause? what a bike is not all holy cause really has to be do surgery. he could

demonstrate least mobility, but only if it's really in this who's doing condition. there's still plenty of discussion when it comes to the question of what a real classic car, or indeed a real historic vehicle is in germany. any car that was 1st registered at least 30 years ago, is considered a classic car. but even on this roller coaster of the debates, members of the classic car seen remain optimistic. the price is like the mill, amelia will that will that be in the future? well, definitely for us. the classic cars on the road is our living heritage. the i see the classic ca, seen as a scene that has been consolidated and has a huge following you. um, hang on. not even knowing that the, the is the week of movement has all of the problem was the average age, the so we can move them in as really

a big challenge to interest. young people also lunas and silver still in england has focused precisely on this target group. the company converts classic purchased cars from the past into electric cars in order to inspire and environmentally conscious young generation. my daughter, she thinks it's something that go green, go green, make the palette green visa building cause and passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles for future generations. and that's why a rolls royce phantom sized from the early 19 sixty's, who's 8 cylinders once led to some environmental concerns. no light silently, an emission free for lanes in the english countryside. we have to address this issue of sustainability that clearly is the same of interest to future generation. we know that younger people, unless engaged with cause and in the way,

the previous generations, wherever and, you know, we're really proud to provide an answer for them and provide an offer for the loan, some preservation of the piece, furniture. but environmental awareness also comes at a hi, steve price, incredibly complex conversion of the car into an electric classic cost 705 years in heroes by the given the low mileage of less than 1500 kilometers per year on average. such a conversion would also be ecologically completely pointless. karl hines, the cops drive, says mercedes benz victoria into an uncertain future. an electric conversion would be ecological e pointless. an e feels are probably not an option either. the engine from $1894.00 only starts if you select with special lights, petrol, which is also available in pharmacies under the name wind. petro is one of the world's oldest cars in danger of being banned from the streets. find the. this is

a demonstration of disrespect and the rents that can potentially turn into madness and might wipe away a reverence for things that were created in the past. and that was $54.00 per gallon highs. declaration. the only solution is to use perhaps, or to some for us if use because in every which of this is well known of the mileage of the kilometers moved by storage vehicles. so this is not a major problem for the climate change situation. the i'm on the gun, so take a look at the entire chain from raw materials to vehicle product, sions, operation and disposal of. and then plastic costs represent long term products and therefore have a very favorable c o. 2 footprint to speed 0. slam the

classic cars still have a future. can our ocean most have cultural heritage stay in motion? with electricity, climate, friends, a fuse or even fossil fuels are, will be and motionless and museums and so you like being alone. well, listen not your never alone. they are lurking everywhere. checks and bed box mosquitoes, and full liens, worms and allegiance. all of them help for your life. but hold on a 2nd. some creatures do have our interests at heart, so don't take to your heels. and that way you also won't miss in good shape the.
