hi, so you miss. nothing about is on the w travel. i hope you enjoy the trip here as much as i did. what about you? what's your opinion? feel free to write your thoughts and the comments. it's really unbelievable. how do this con condos on the road? the did you know, electric vehicles, one flip like this, this and even this impact fee with the very 1st mass produced motor cars to gain popularity over the years. they range from practical includes the odd and downright bizarre join us as we delve into the history of the earliest eaves in the

weird and wonderful electric vehicles. the saw the light of the day before we got to be connected cars on you think again, over a 100 years ago, these had put an end to the cost of drawn cabbages. and along with it to meet the dodge cost of droppings, tvs prove more convenient than steam cars, and easier, cheaper and clean out to run the gas guzzling rifles. so why does the word abandon these once beloved machines? in the early 19 hundreds i see needed to be head trying to plus the rather than to crowd that a lot and fuel was more expensive than electricity. all the footwork and the people to see these until the american oil boom and the ford models, email electric vehicles, all fit paid is still. but over the course of history, the whole for battery powered mobility, never dade, and especially when the threat to for an oil crisis loomed ease, had a habit of holding up,

renewing the lease that they could solve the transport sec. this energy was as recently as a few years ago, electric vehicles will come to the machines at the future once that like sunday 12 to be the ideal way to meet you by commission people. but even though they become increasingly common manufacturers, energy companies and governments around the world are pushing to develop battery technology, charging and pressure of 2 and the policy. and even while the demetria does on as to whether or not it's truly can be the best way forward for the automotive future, it's easy to forget, but the ones for an intention to fall past the early days of the these were experimental to say the least opted all it was the 1800s, a time of scientific discovery, innovation and drafted progress, which saw the invention of modes of time for like the steam locomotive and the velocity feed. some credit for getting as moving electric 3 goes to engage and

increase them in vendor on yours is one year like the develop the light thing, magnetic fields pro to targeted as the world's 1st electric motor. in 1828. he use this to propeller model cars setting the stage for further automotive development, electricity in the mount computing cost dependency as the proposed power in the early automobile, and $1832.00 scottish and mentor all by the end defend developed what's considered the was 1st for the electric vehicle, it was essentially a cabbage provided by an electric motor. unfortunately, the de chargeable battery hadn't been invented at the time. and once the machine has moved forward and it's alicia, top speed of 12 kilometers an hour and exhausted the energy and it's patchy to, to back to needed to be thrown away and replaced with a new one. that's the most practical solution for that open roundabout and 18. 59 french cuz is this guest on sante, invented the each eligible battery

n e d. started making progress under the lend road. in 18. 84 englishmen, thomas parker began experimenting with to the diabetes. and and 1890 in the us. william morrison applied for the patent and electric gun heat booth a few years. and yet it caused quite a still in spots the imagination of various inventive like henry d, morris and federal asylum who built the electro bet. the 1st commercially viable electric car, they even made electric caps, which are created in cities like new york at the end of the century. believe it or not, these cabs are in almost uninterrupted thanks to that. and genius, manhood of battery swapping, that involve of cream and took all of 3 minutes. these were getting quicker to version chameleon r c became the 1st person in the way to break the 100 kilometers an hour bad. yeah . and his purpose with electricity is call slide, show me content finch. one, never content afterwards. easy. seemed unstoppable. in fact,

the 1st guy putting in push ahead and in building the echo loan a seat facing was an easy electric cars, was simply taking over the street. the things changed around 19 o. 8 more than more, more duties began rolling off. henry ford's assembly lines that along with the discovery of cheap crude oil in texas mid the i, c e attempting proposition. the final nail in the coffin was charles catchings, electric felt start though, which eliminated the inconvenience. so pen cranking a car say 1923. the model because tough with an easy did, which meant the tenant lizzie, as it had been nicknamed, was simply everywhere and had left the electric got eating, it's done. on the top, the model, the people called it a live and made jokes about it to

buy it on the 19 puppies, electric vehicles will for all intents and purposes, then of course the, with a few exceptions like in england where electric moves. so it's continued to be the norm from the time they were invented until it on the 1980s. and although the 1st and these had seemingly disappeared from the face of po to go through the presidency and mentioned that to route and significant machines like this one, the pleasure of b o, b or to a new to the view which translates to like city car this many cab yearly would staggered seating was possibly the world's 1st electric, my ciocca v. there is quite a few eyebrows when it was 1st announced, since new friends call me because at the time we're considering electric propulsion . but with parts of france, i'm the gentleman occupation. v was pleasures clever way of side. stepping the fuse restriction imposed on french civilians. the v o. these

were mainly used by postal workers in deltas, but after just 377 units booked and used the nazis band because you the a few years later post while japan was suffering from a to the shortage of oil, food running automobiles and electricity, which was cheap and $24.00 seems like a good idea. so the tool to electric automobile company came up with this. the tama between 1947 and 51. thomas could be seen playing depends rhodes, primarily s taxis. and the fact that the tools to electric automobile company eventually mocked into prints automotive, which in turn became dot to miss on means that long before the lead, nissan had a successful in the form of the tom, uh, the, across the phone with them to boot is heading down to a complete call it and one of the 1st, the visa, nearly 2 decades,

the told promise just happened to be both by an electricity company, but on both the quotes and the company that manufactured vaccine clean as in 1959. the henny motor company owned by the national union electric company, which also owned utica williams, created an e b, called the hennie kilowatt. taking the shell in underpinnings from the i know don't seem the police because he a engine with an electric motor and stored the batch cheese under the hood. national union, electric was keen to manufacture ease because they also produce the excite batteries which followed these cars. but no storage basement the, these one fairly practical and the way expensive. 2 of the $100.00 kilowatts boot is reportedly on the $47.00, whatever fluid mostly the other electric companies. so hoops the honey killer. what would become the next big, easy work? trust pretty quickly. the

then came the 1st problem, any attempt in decades by an american comic or general motors intellectual there in 1964, jim book, a chevy carver, and fitted it with a back to back. 2 years later, they went back to the drawing board using a 1966 month hot off model to come up with the electro. bear to the car, had an induction motor this year and a battery pack upfront. and was by far the coolest looking the manufactured upon to land. the drawback was the battery was extremely heavy and needed to be placed between the 651-2500 kilometer mark. which meant that the call was effectively a non starter. the gm also try the hand is moving and electrified ship it called the electro bed in the least 19 seventies . they were confident that the battery technology had significantly improved by then. this is isaac nichol oxide back which has about $2.00 to $2.00 and

a half times the energy storage capability of the letter acid batteries, which were formerly the only ones available. so this really is a, is the breakthrough that makes possible and electric car like this. but this by testing model to go back to you can see the electrolytic simply the on its promises of the experimental american. each of these are fed and i'm through general electric data. and for this computer prototype with perhaps a genuine load as easy from that era that can be computed, something of a success wasn't even an even the most if it's more going on the surface of fear balloon moving vehicles. a lot of bees will battery powered 4 wheelers use during the last 3 apollo emissions joined the efforts by boeing and general motors. the 1st and r b was deployed on july 31st 1971 during the apollo 15 mission

to be able to help estimates couple moving out. so if it's during the expedition asked to know if you do fun and even fit the unofficial land speed record when he hit 18 kilometers an hour in one of us bands and on the moon on the apollo missions 1516 and 17, where the domain to this, the company is across the atlantic were keen not to be left behind in 1966 and fewer automotive in england produced a 120. it has an electric cause of which 65 for use by the u. k. is electricity council. people took to them on average, so you get to a range of about 40 miles to the side of the purposes and we took up so to focus on and reduce engineer alistair cartridge, develop in a recall. the cock is close to in 1967 in colorado was so confident,

as with the way forward. he even told the daily mail that he believed $250000.00 such cause would be on british roads within 5 short. he is, and these one the only examples at the produced by the corporation as long braids headquarters, they don't intend to be left behind in conjunction with a battery for them, it's planned to build an electric town call within 2 years. that's what these prod, designer like, is it going, it is working with an oil crisis looming. p a is the future of fuel shortages lead several countries to start making concerted efforts to divide these until 1950. the united states could supply the energy need, but in less than 25 years, we found ourselves in trouble. so the us congress passed the electric hybrid be good research and development and demonstration act of 1976. but long before that

in germany, old fellows already regions fugette cards in the electro, gd, at hawk. i'm home and them. but you had already displayed this list. electric. got the 1972 new and they call them fix to the end of you. 16 o. 2, these were used to fatty people around and to support jack and putin met aton events comically you because every inch was just a bit longer than a full marathon distance after which it needed a new battery. the volkswagen was added to testing a bakshi powered micro bus o bully, back in 1972. the electro bus was the green toyota fe department of future research, and like the ton of the century, electro best also featured batch e swapping the boston from both float implemented regenerative braking in the machine to do an actual electric the, the bus b i, the buzz only hit the market for 2 years later,

the the vida usernames, to combat the fuel crisis of the seventy's even extended to the most popular model . in fact, this was the electro goes from 1976. vw engineers base 20 of them and drove them around booth, spoke for 10 years, gathering data and how they could improve back to tech for electric cars. the, let's see that. okay, and that's not a fuel filter. kinetic socket. this car runs on electricity, electricity from the batteries apple products, and then they're charged via this socket. here. what is this? the new versions included the gulf one cities, trauma in 1981. the goal is to see the stroma in 1985. and the goal, 3 cities, trauma and $93.00. but it wasn't until the 2014 the beat up. you begin to see the system to the eighty's again with the eagles.

that flash forward to the ninety's when it ends when being made to bring ease into the present or judging by the design of this machine. the future american call me cuz we're undergoing pressure from california to sell a certain percentage of 0 emission vehicles if they wanted to do business in the states. so gm booth and fluid the e v one from $96.00 to $99.00. now. so you know, something of cause callbacks and rumors about the gym sabotage, the easy ones, kansas in order to keep selling. i see ease jump ahead to 2012 and silicon valley was taken over with testimony, so it's still becoming the best selling american made easy, but it was a brand little car that will discount until then. the c ping vanguard city can see by bought beaumont around 4500 of these cheese wedges, on wheels with only between 19741977. a change in ownership meant it was eventually the brand of the commune. talk are and also came in along the commute of end

variant. it signaled the salt of the people wanted to drive at the time. and it was we ahead of the electric ford, recycled flight, the old pedal, roxy. or some, i truly know this desire for small tactical electric cars made its presence voted on the wood and the 2000 in india, the v vi electric car company sold the viva and even exported it to the u. k. as the g with the and the, nor we split on by some stop equal heroes, aha, know regions to, into, to domestic models, the body and the pink city. much like this picture to a 4 or 5 is none of these little machines took the test of time, but they kept the spark of the dream. a light to the electric vehicles have gone down to the main stream and come in all manner of conventional shapes. and sizes, so you might not be the most common machines on the road. feel still

a bond this whether or not they can be truly inconvenient and the duty is to load as to whether or not they're likely to save the planet. but even as manufacturers flip flop about whether or not they've going for the electric, one thing we can all of the on is the end of the cookie. electric vehicle is gone. and it's a downright shame that we won't see any of these unusual machines brightening up, society escaped as the more to the loan, the machines like the cruelty, bizarre corbin's paddle, which quite frankly looked like a giant to are the same class sci fi, which was like a tiny electrical card or an accident waiting to happen, or fails twin concept which let you swap the combustion engine at the back, put a battery powered you cause some of these machines went on status, and they didn't do arden and practically to use. but if they hadn't been invented, we might not be able to drive it around in modern eighty's to date our look back at the who's she is eaves with a mixture of admiration and amusement. after all,

the weird and wonderful arguably do have it only to play in the course of innovation. the car's car, cars, other phenomenon with millions of unique stories. that could be in a german coffin. we need you guys wherever you are. however, up here what the question is now, where should we go? right to wherever you are and send us your stories and your crazy car into the let's catch up soon. on the they ask you to navigate any so special ed tons, people greet with them. i am very pleased to announce that

today i will drive the greenest car i have ever driven in my whole life. at least in terms of exterior color. ladies and gentlemen, the number of the event of the s v j the event to s b j was built for an excessive drive is limited to just 900 units the call sold out very quickly. that gets resigned. the will of one is nearly impossible, which is why i read the test match. i was thrilled to put it through its paces at low speeds in the 15th, you're really recognized that this car grieves to be driven the on the track or at least outside of the city. it's not made for low speeds. it's really made for highest speeds, driving on the motorway on the race track. wherever you can send, wherever you are, allow us to drive the the 6.5 liter engine,

which delivers 566 kilowatts of power helps the s b j hit the ton 2.8 seconds. it takes 8.6 seconds to get to the $200.00 monk and 20 full seconds to cross 300 kilometers an hour. the calls top speed assembled phone cuz number just north of 350 kilometers per hour. this event that the s b j you really, you bet it's 6 to the rows because of the i already and i make optimization. 40 percent more downforce on this event, the f c j s on the regular events side door. and you never have the feeling that the car is not controllable. you can go through curves at such the highest speed. that's the best thing to get 6 at the drive and you don't you uncomfortable with this? it's really unbelievable. how do this con condos on the road?

and it doesn't make any difference that you're driving to. it's just impressive what this 6 and a half liter v 12 pushes to the wheels with odds to the air compressor naturally aspirated engine. that's incredible. of co c event to do as c, j could well be amongst the last of a dying breed with navigating also considering going the hybrids and electric made savings in order to meet e u emission regulation. as you probably know, for example, from one of the most iconic lamborghini motors, the coon touch, the dos of these cars don't necessarily open the way they do with other costs. but

with the event, i don't have the doors open like this. this is quite good when you're in a narrow parking lot about you have to take care that the ceiling is high enough so you don't damage the door. at 4.9 meters loan 2.2 meters wide and just a for me to high the s b j looks every inch aloud. the gainey built the speed aging . it's driving dynamics. the a l. a 2 point oh arrow dynamic system which activity varies. the aerodynamic load, depending on the dynamic conditions, the use of electronic got to a to is, makes the system 80 percent lighter than comparable hydraulic systems. the s b j's impressive interior to, with high quality materials. an excellent workmanship is something you should be able to expect in this price range the on the same

stuff, a good lateral support idea while i'm driving fast, but company adjusted beyond the set point s b, i vento de s, b j is more or less the last lamborghini with a naturally aspirated 6 and a half feet to the 12 engine without any toppings. probably you all want to see what's underneath this bond to. that's him for that. i need a little help because it's too heavy to do it on your own. oh and it's hot to get better. i'm not getting her to isn't this beautiful, this re 12 engine and it's so hot. i'm sure you could try and add on that the event to to s b j is equipped with an all wheel drive

system. it will say features 4 wheel steering that takes the hunting of this week. this bolts cost to the next level, but there is one cost of the power train that's in the, to outdated. equipped with a 7 speed, all 2 methods. gearbox was one collage. this takes a little bit of getting used to this because nowadays most cause our that's transmission which shift faster than this one. and especially when it shifts in a carpet church gets in advance of the med take one, the with the slippery that being said, the s b j is a call that same driving and ccf see might be willing to put up with this little it'd be a single face, especially given the to know tackling the tama cat to re fix the, the

the most complicated thing is when driving the event a door s v j is probably getting in and out of the car. but there are also some other things that you have to get used to, for example, the automatic gearbox with only one clutch. so it's a little bit tricky to drive on slippery roads. we didn't have today, fortunately, and at some point it feels as if the car is already some years old, which it actually is. that's why it is built anymore. it was limited to $900.00 pieces. driving with this very special edition of the event adobe event, the s a v j is definitely something i can talk about with my friends and colleagues for a very, very long the incredible sound power on that, as well as the tracing dynamics make the event to do s b, j stand down, but the high fuel consumption on the enormous price tag used s b j is currently

cost close to a 1000000 years of definite downsides to this machine. the said more automotive tales. next time on read the
