the goal is to bring use a story behind the news. we rule about unbiased information for fremont. the . this is the new pizelle a 3008, appealing electric s u v. co pay. and it is by no means the 1st car of this type on

the market. so we have to compare it to its arrival. it's welcome to read the different versions of all the 3008. the 1st one that we're testing right now is a $210.00 horse power, $157.00 kilowatt electric engine with 527 kilometers of range. the same range is through for the all wheel drive version that has $320.00 horse power, $240.00 kilowatts of power. and then of course days the long range version, which has $230.00 horsepower, $170.00 kilowatts, and up to 700 kilometers of range the . so if you compare those driving numbers to, for example, a test model, why or be able to use id 5 pro performance. they are,

are all quite similar. you got the wrong 530 kilometers offer range. you have a price of their own, $50000.00 euros. the only thing is the test is way more powerful. so it's of course faster. they can go up to 217 kilometers an hour. why? the, as you always kept at $172.00, i was an hour and the vw at even $160.00. to be fair though, the difference in price is around $4000.00 euros more for the test, so that you have to pay for the additional power the, the general driving impression in the show a 3008 is quite good. it is very well insulated. you don't have a lot of wind noise in the interior, which gives you a pleasant ride comfort. if you compare that to test it is a little better i would say. but on the same level, about as being able to use id 5 the,

the suspension is nothing special. it does exactly what you would expect from an s q b. it is around the soft. so you have the car rolling a little bit into curves, but nothing too while so it's absolutely ok the the 3008 is the 1st car to be based on the new s t l, a medium platform from this the largest group. so 70 does the platform provide up to 700 kilometers is pure electric range due to a scalable architecture. it can also be used for different body types and sizes is call with a length of 4.54 matches and a width of 1.89 meters. the $3000.00 dates seen at the lower end of the full

electric, s easy to pace in this class. the interior of the potato, a 3008, looks are really good, high quality, nice materials. and i always like the steering wheel off off of your model, since it's simply so small, nicely to offer it gives you a good feeling. that part in the middle is not exactly what i would prefer, but it's still okay. i've seen worse. what i don't like is that high gloss black here. it's not touch operated. that's good. so you can't use them on the accidents because you have to actually press them. but you have quite a lot of high gloss black here in the center console in the middle. but then you have that beautiful, 21 inch wide screen display which has all the information that you need to operated . so in for payment system an instrument costa and $1.00 big screen that is not standard for the entry level version, the blue one,

it is to 10 inch these base. my they also connected with some sort of hide goes back. so it looks similar the, the thing i also really like is that this better right here, where you can place shortcuts. so you simply keep that pressed, then it will highlight and then you can choose on the screen here in the center. what ever function you would like to place it right down there that you can see right here we have illumination, you can choose from a few colors. we'll show you a picture of that during the night. they can see it better. i think it looks really good, but it can be a little bit distracting because you have reflections of that in the window. it's not that bright, so it's ok. but if you see it, then for a few minutes you can see it. the $3008.00 can be challenged with speeds of up to a $160.00 kilowatts. introduce the challenge. ha ha, silas sauce,

charging results and upwards of 250 kilometers of range. the thing that is not too good with the 3008 is the visibility to the rear. but that is not only a pure jo problem. it is all a cd co pays simply by the way they are built at the rear. the what is quite nice with the a 3008 is that it has pedals behind the steering wheel where you can choose the level of freight corporation, the different levels of possible. and with the highest level, you can basically use it for one pedal drive because the braking is quite strong. the only thing is, if you actually want to stop completely, then you have to apply the brakes at the end because the car will not stop on its own. on like for example baubles, x 30, all post to all the costs that have that function. i don't know why not all manufacturers do this because it is basically real one pedal drive. but

okay, now also enough manufacturers that don't have it where you need to apply the brakes at the end. the in markets that do have a few of the that are the cold, the heat pump in the car comes as standard. and that is a very good thing because you will save quite a lot of energy. if you compare that in the french market, for example, you have a water heater stand that they will use up to 7.5 kilowatts of energy to heat up. the water prices for the 3000 dates begin at just over 48000 years. the entry level model, the time up my a 3008 experience. it is a very solid car. that of course has its price. but if you compare it to

all those in that segment is me the cheap know very expensive. so it fits into that segment quite well in the end, it's always a choice. what you like in terms of design, be it on the interior on the exterior, and i have to say the equally 1008 looks way better then for example, a 95 for a test off. on the plus side, the $3000.00 to h is quite the inside and out. and the platform has the flexibility in terms of body style which makes the downside, like korea visibility and compromise suite space. seem mind vw go. one is the most successful cause in the world. extraordinary ordinary.

but what's so special about it? nothing. there is nothing exceptional. everything fits and i conic gym and call this remains to to itself 50 is spectacularly tension. i'm going in a golf in its various generations. was always recognisable as a gulf. i came by. we knew what you had, the, the ghost, the most successful german car hold time appeals to young and older like its times more than 35000000 bias world wide across schools that she'll come see if the senior doctor drew up to the clinic in a gulf the letter carrie drove one to work in the morning and then deliver it is

letters and another golf. no matter your social class or your job, it's just a normal car. mine is all to the gulf. this comb could the whole world from brazil to south africa in many places. it's become part of the national culture and survived political people getting up, but they do as an accessible to a lot of the old products. but then after that, then we got our free domain to is accessible to a new one. volkswagen means a lot to virginia and culture, especially for the goal models that we have here. and what's next to the gulf. best seated device safety by to about that on the sixty's. but these efforts because the challenge now is to continue the success story and also the you don't have to revolutionize everything if you think what's there isn't that bad. the,

the goal is in a way, a symbol of the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. the people's beloved receiving the size of using them go via the they, they did a good job. they, those that are loose mean cut designs. and this revolutionary style design that comes from it today with southern european slash to just to, to jot of broke all conventions in the early 19 seventy's to create a sensible come, come the door. include there still it's form architecture and technical and functional framework are like the harmonies of a hit song while calls are called the counselor. there will match notes that create a harmony when you put them together. you see a man, you're not moving

a. john doe, who is vice a designer of the century for creating unique and legendary vehicles for a wide variety of comic has was commissioned by volkswagen to develop a success the to the beat on team made it radically different from the perennial best seller angular instead of round front instead of rear wheel drive was the cold instead of at the gulf was smaller than the beach a little me outside much room yet on the inside stood up. the 2nd feature of the golf. i'll show you here a good email. it's sloping a pillar and the slope in good shape. while the belt line is lower, delta you bozza, so they are the facets of these notices, like those used to compose music. most of the brand may surprise those who look

at it with a harmony, as that's not perceived with the conscious mind. and so the people just feel that and people immediately felt the benefits of the com. vw, su, launched the gulf gti for drive. it seems like 240 since then, the goals has consistently being the best selling caught in germany, frequently in europe, and in some years, even worldwide. sex over. that's a big well yes, i believe that the gulf actually managed to bend the site guide of the industry into sheet metal to a proven technology that was very solve. i'd say that you could rely on you see it . so the, the last few months is for less than 20 the gulf is now and its 8th generation. a call that change the industry and even established a new vehicle category. the golf club. as it's called the goals,

there's no really change in 50 is the, it's not 60 students must have actually managed to change the golf very gradually, slowly and then evolution every way. so that's what a new generation is. very reminiscent into the old one. you know, you cannot see on the see on the customers have not been scared off by a completely new design or the installation noise design testing is that's why there is a very strong customer loyalty to this. cough because you knew what you had most of us might have to the best of, as he lives accost development can be found in the world's largest private goals collection in the austrian town of chicago. use if use a has brought together a 114 gulf ranging from the most unusual with sliding doors to the

fastest cubes. gti models the it's the go fans life. look at those days a gulf because it was the 1st vehicle where everything really was just right. i used to drive all brands, almost all brands. when i was young, the 1st time the golf really was the car you sat in and everything was just right. the perfect car as if it had been built for me. i just didn't know if it needs people to and the other many go funds phones clubs to cultivate the passion. i'm the owners of the 1st model series from the 19 seventy's gather at the meetings of one such great goals, original goals, one, but people from old walks of life come together here. there's him onto the globe. the senior doctor drove to the clinic in a gulf the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and delivered his letters and another girl now and the secretary and the factory drove a golf and the boss. his wife may have also had a golf as a private car. it's

a class this car under stated reliable, practical n, as in said, offers everything you still need to get from a to be today to the one on the right . even some gulf, one known as 2 volt that causing the former east germany. in 1978. volkswagen delivered 10000 goals that in exchange for seat metal teaching, oil and tires. it wasn't easy for people that to get the hands on the gulf sign hot . martinez got lucky because he'd registered with the also receipts for an east german con long before and so he was able to get to west gym and come that he could work on that and he's got the others i missed the interview at the time. i worked for an intern for the i guess, a test engineer who readings, but i wasn't to conrad in, so i approached it up domestically. i thought that i knew you have to get your hands on this car. so of course i gave up the lot. i had registered for 12 years earlier in order to get it a lot of goals. so all the rage. no,

certainly in east germany, but so incoming. it's too small and the foundation. so the goal since usually ask them in the balkans will laid back in the 19 seventy's. i'm remain in place today. then volkswagen produced the 1st gulf models made in. sorry, eva today the buzz me in capital as possible. the joint venture looks like a circle closer to the dream of every average. yugoslavian was to own a gulf. of course you had to wait for a gulf if you had the money for it to him. oh no, it's not on the wait was up to 6 months. i was able to save some money so that i could make my dream come true. it was a big deal for me as a young man, i'm cold. my generation will get what i'm talking about on such as on september to seconds, production facilities with knowledge he destroyed and supposed to be involved

between 1992 and 95 goals. production was discontinued, but people's in c o z. as in, for the german call has the volume, the same email address is i'm most most useful and i the whole, the emotions about that see years for with about survival. and often that was the tendency for the people to feel themselves. again, like the normal people, again that some like in south africa to the gulf has survived a change in political systems and is now part of the country's culture. like a witness to history, it joined the long journey of the black population from the oppression of, of pol, tied to the present day. the reading of. but the doors in accessible to

a lot of the bill probably is maybe to still expensive. those ones who as a compressed but then after then we got our freedom. i think i think it became accessible to yeah, to almost everyone a very special gulf model was even built in south africa because the gulf to which replace the one in 1994 was too complex and expensive for south africa. the gulf one simply continued to be built, that in a slightly modified form under the name city gulf. this is the my 2007 see to glue it was a base motors and that's how it looks from your site. i can go outside and show you the old site as went from the m k one to the c 2 glove. this is how you differentiate them, just letting you so the that's how you differentiate those. c,

a m k one doesn't have a deadline, but this, the 2 goes have the when production of the city goes was finally discontinued in 2009. the whole country bid farewell to this favorite. com with emotional outgoing the i think you don't remember the day you saw a belfry paid will never die because there's people who look up the them, it will live for a. i'm going to save one for my son. he's built 2 years old. yeah. so you'll find it maybe when he's 18 or printing london using cars, paid the low. so whatever is owned by they use loading tests, they about 2 bits for myself. the, the brazilians got a specially built model. the vw go, one of the country's most popular calls between 19802022. although it had the audi 80 and vw passat dna,

it came with body style is reminiscent of the polo and gulf wagon means a lot to bridge union culture, especially for like the goal models that we have here. the created goal to be a cheaper car for families from our simpler people, which is the base off of the birds you know, and even in from people take the hassle off to the gulf. a special exhibition at the restroom. the bill classic co show in paris commemorates the gulf history. probably the only foreign call this has ever managed to seriously compete with the french like whole favorites. which is a car from abroad that left its mark on the french you were suddenly driving a car that was incredibly young. set you onto a cd for example. was a comfortable french car, but none of our cars had that dynamism. something. wow. so i mean, if i do not need you to the,

the gulf really is more than just to come go stands for a way of life. who am i, the profession of faith, the money you live with it, identify with it. so in a way the expression generation golf makes sense of to 50 low me is the days of the go flip tonight. they would numbers as volkswagen proposed for a new age of mobility. electro mobility with the development of the id model series . but doesn't count the gulf out just yet. i just wanted to see god that has now been a change in product strategy, a volkswagen, the id 3, which has positioned in the same vehicle. klaus as the gulf was unable to build on the goals success because based on and now volkswagen is going the other way and taking these well known performance characteristics of the goals and transforming

them into electric mobility community in india, electron mobility, once the i know is to build on it side clinic history and continue the success story with an electric car onto that focused on the ultimate, i'm elect will all to live at this time. and this is what it could look like. the goals 9 with the electric drive, which will be launched the earliest in 2026. the goal is in the way, a symbol of the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. we are changing over to new engines, namely the electric engines. they're completely different parameters and stay in the car, maintains exactly the same shape as before. so when vito became goals, changing the engine, the change also the shape. now 50 is of to the 1st goals. i believe we have to understand that the way we use cause it's a scholarly change. and so it's

a quarter of a tragedy that's without us as we keep the goals forever the we by the goal because of the meaning of it. and then a new word, which is the one we are approaching, that shouldn't be new meanings. could it be times that you'll get to to joe to roger at key redesign? vw use best selling model doesn't b, w need a little revolution. every 50 is likely the italian. no. any works but chinese comp make has and it has collaboration with volkswagen in 2015 in design. it's not democratic. you understand how people deal. i didn't have the freedom to propose the things i wanted to do when i agreed to join that large corporate group. the result i'm, they go on, they put up, they don't have any courage because they're the men in charge and they don't want

to put their positions of power at risk or thrown. they don't take risks, they do things more or less the same as ever in order to avoid risk because they don't have any vision. but you saw the, the vision is what led georgette to job to, to create, to milestones and automotive design. you always have lived and built a career out of my absolute freedom because when i made my 1st cars, i had incredible freedom to do the best time during the day dw, go a symbol of freedom and creativity in college design because everyone which people and young all over the world have embrace in the call that just become the flagship of the gym and automotive industry. it's tom,
