for detail at this point to be find it here. repos every weekend on d w. the, i don't think anyone had ever thought that the once in a century transformation of the auto industry would be a straight line. the definitely is common. you factor a month with us, very well known for it's around the small and compact cost months to, to $3.00, cx, 30, and so on. and when they brought out the cx, 60, everyone was quite surprised,

and now they taking it a step further, the cx, 80. that's the model right next to me. and almost 5 me to long s u v, and we'll up to 7 seats. and what else has got to offer it? we'll check it out right now. welcome to read the cx. ac is based on the sco active, multi solution, scalable architect, chest the vehicles with long it you know, engine layouts and with bits. 3 rows of seats is the largest and most spacious vehicle in masters, european product range. when it comes to drive drains, you can choose between the plugin hybrid and the diesel version. we're testing the plugin hybrids right here. it has a system output of $327.00 horsepower. while the diesel will have $250.00 for the purely electric arrange for the plugin hybrid is around 60 kilometers, which is not exactly that high. if you compare that to most of the plugin hybrids on the mock, because nowadays they will have around 100 kilometers

a purely electric range. about 60 kilometers is still better than nothing. the, the top speed of the plug in the hybrid version is 195 kilometers an hour, while the diesel version will take you up to 219 kilometers an hour. the, the general driving impression in the cx 80 is really good. exactly. what you would expect in raw, the big, luxurious s u, v 8 is silent on the interior. it is very soft and comfortable when it comes to suspension. of course, it is not exactly sporty, but i don't think amounts of idea was to create as for the s u. v. so that's absolutely ok. cx. ac schools with extensive stands that equipments the info

attainment system, l. e. d. headlights. to start to assist emergency brake assist. layton changes this tire pressure monitoring system and lights and rein senses. just some examples. the interior of my cars is always very appealing to me. you have very high quality, everything looks and touches really good advice each of the cx, 80 has asked to drive a personalization system that will recognize you with a camera. so the moment you take a seat, it will see uh, it's a manual and then it will adjust the seating position. the steering wheel, your side view mirrors, but also the climate control and the sound system. if you set your preferences and then you won't have to do that again, the moment you getting the call, it will see it's you and then adjust everything. and that's pretty nice.

as you would expect from an s u v, that is almost 5 meter in length. there is a lot of space head room is okay. leg room is also absolutely okay. the seats, uh comfortable. you have a nice cop holder right here with a little table that you can full way if you don't need it, by the way, the cx, 80 stand, the comes as a 7 seater. those 6 seats, configurations that we have right here is off to know from the higher trim levels. so if you want it, you can choose it and it doesn't cost extra in the higher levels. of course, all you can keep the 7 seats if you need them, the pots on that can adjust the bag, rest of the seats to be a little more to the back. give you more of a relaxed feeling. of course you will have to be sure that that's the one behind you, otherwise it will hurt the nice pass. expect

that the car is big, but not that big. so right back here it is suitable for smaller children. but for people that uh, i'd say bigger than one meters. 60, that's nothing you would want to be sitting in for more than a 100 kilometers. i adjusted the seat in front so i could sit there still good. not ideally by good, and that's what i'm left with. there's almost no like room left. of course you half your legs, raw, the fold it together. the head room is ok, but as i said, this is not for tall people. it's for short ones or 4 children. the price is for the premium s t v stuff. it's 55300 year rise to the 2nd hybrids. and just over 59000 zeroes, so the diesel,

the just as most of the modern cars, the cx, 80 peaches, a huge array of driver assistance systems. and what that means is, if you drive too fast, or if you drive over the line or do anything else that the car does, like, you will be greeted with a beeping sound. they want you about that that can be quite annoying. but mazda has a very nice solution to that, because right next to the steering wheel, you will find the little button that has a little car and it with a circle around it. we're presenting the driver assistance systems and a small speaker that is barred. so what the button does, this is news of the system, the systems by just pressing it and then everything will be peacefully silent. if you press the button again, the sounds are re enabled and the car is again able to warn you and not just by

visual master office, the new cx, ac in 5 different equipment levels or grades. full variance come equipped with an 8 speed, automatic transmission. and all wheel drive it's talking about the average consumption, the plugin hybrid is rated at 1.6 meters for 100 kilometers and of course electric energy. and once the battery is empty it will climb up to $8.00. lita. so it's not exactly made for long distance trips, while the diesel on the other hand is ray that that's 5.75.8 need is but 100 kilometers according to w l t p. and that makes it very suitable for long distance trip. the new trailer hitch view makes it easier to hook up a trailer by displaying it on the central 12.3 inch, infotainment touch screen. coming up my cx, 80 experience, i have to say the car is really comfortable. everything is of very high quality. the craftsmanship in the interior is very nice and considering the entry level

price of on the $56000.00 euros, that is a very good offer, especially if you compare that's to all the costs in that segment. for example, bmw w, x 7 or mercy, this g l e that start at 9205000 euro, which is almost double the price. and to me that doesn't make any sense. i mean, you can get a lot of extra isn't that cost to make you feel almost the same and then you will still have a lot of money left. and what's even better bots always give 6 years or 150000 kilometers of warranty. and you won't find that with bmw, mercedes, and all the mazda cx. ac is a spacious, high quality fcc, with a lot of standard equipment at every its level price. on the downside, the purity electric range is no great and fuel consumption with the factory mt is well the high semester is not as high quality as a bmw, mercedes. but in terms of bang po box, it beats both of those gem and caused by

a mile thing to electric vehicles are taking over well think again, internal combustion engines, the employees to make a roaring combat. so these are still grabbing the headlines. the electric cars are having a moment to the demand for electric vehicles as booming worldwide sales of electric vehicles are projected to boot over the next few years. so why or drivers and carmakers doubling down on icy ease despite the climate crisis, the world is waking up and change is coming, whether you like it or not. fueled by a modern day gold rush companies and government ford billions into the market, driven by grand promises of a clean or green or future. but now as the sales plateau, some of the industries biggest players are retreating from their vicious promises.

your biggest comic or volkswagen is considering closing factories for the 1st time and it's history electric vehicles from china or cutting into its market share and high energy costs make manufacturing in germany uncompetitive because the, the big party that this industry has enjoyed and from which a german manufacturers long benefited is over. so and i don't think anyone ever thought that the ones in a sensory transformation of the industry would be a straight line and there will be peaks and troughs. but it's not just a german problem. other european carmakers pay similar headaches, like reno numbers. the truth is, we are not yet on the right trajectory to achieve 100 percent electric cars by 2035

. if customers don't follow us, we're all responsible. we need to cut costs. the global use share in terms of sales, slowing down and customer adoption rate, not as high as expected just a few years ago. the results forward is axing its electric 3 ro, s u, v, and domain and next gen pickup plus it's committing to future gas and diesel models, citing a lack of consumer interest and fully electric cars for a sudden shift cast doubt on the sustainability and the immediacy of the revolution are we witnessing a retreat from overly optimistic promises? is the widespread adoption of electric car is truly feasible or a dream too far? the welcome to the electric car, the future spot where the gasoline producers of america i

did go very, very switching to eaves aims to cut carbon footprints, reduce reliance on limited resources and fight the climate crisis. the vision was clear, electric vehicles would be the ultimate solution to our environmental waters. in greenville was born out of this message tested to protect tele plants, take the electric vehicles section. it is a crucial industry for the clean economies with a huge potential in your major players like the us, china mg. you have implemented laws and incentives to boost tv adoption aiming to phase out. i see vehicles by 2035. but this transformation isn't merely a technological shift. it's a complex dance involving geo politics. economics and infrastructure electric will

be, has a very high probability to become the main floor for boston. and if you miss this window of opportunity out of by sticking too much on the old them, that might be coming next. the central problem even before the lock for the launch chimes of the industry. the tv's look to have a bright future world wide sales just kept growing until 2024. when they started to stagnate, plug in hybrids. and dicey e saw a resurgence. big car brands read the writing on the wall and began walking back there and vicious as targets in germany knew the registrations are set to fall for the 1st time by just under 14 percent and 2024.

that's mainly because subsidies and tax breaks were rolled back. these play a direct role in e v adoption, the recent decline in e v could safe sales months over months. certainly has been influenced by the main site, just the reduction of government subsidy, easy money market. because they made the products very attractive, not only a fund that helps because, but also from a psychologically sick in the old quote and door 10 to the new movie in europe or in germany. we're seeing that plans for e v. 's are being scaled back or slowed down repeatedly. so the order, of course, this is also related to the current slow down in sales, or since you know, one on sold car standing around on your parking lot, this one mercedes, my taste, if i put the condition of to bolster shifting tvs isn't as straightforward as it see, there are 2 major hurdles for e v adoption. the prices are,

are a little bit high for ease in, and people are choosing to deal with that in the marketplace. you know, they're choosing other, you know, other solution. the product offerings are out stripping the t v, charging infrastructure available. but it's not all doom and gloom projections suggested eas could make up 50 percent of global passenger car sales by 2035 and 70 percent. by 2040. however, i see vehicles won't disappear overnight, they're long vive cycles means they'll be on the roads for decades to come. while the likes of canada, south korea in the us sit and fishes target phase out, ice east. the us and china have yet to commit to specific timelines. the despite initiatives like to

buy it and administrations funding for the infrastructure. the reality is that building the systems takes time in europe. countries like germany and a u. k. have modified their the mandates due to political changes highlighting the complexities of this transition. china, on the other hand, is aggressively pushing for e v adoption. leveraging it's huge manufacturing capacities and state assistance. is a situation in china. s great deal east greatly influencing the roads, comma, because it's a demonstrate that on one end of uh for how many applications electric vehicles um now up probably 24 consumers for legacy carmakers jeep. chinese eves had been a wake up call in the us, and europe, governments are sending off chinese in boards with terrorists. but in these 2 mass

markets, that's making affordable, leaves less affordable, putting another didn't any, the adoption can you look at china, which is the world's largest current market, and they've been going gang busters on these as well. and so you look at these 2 markets that are going to need these, and then you look at the us market and say, well, okay, if we're going to be competitive in that space, we need to be looking at tvs as well. the terrorists are seen as protecting traditional automakers who's these are big and pricey. most offer no entry level electric cars for under $20000.00 euros. unlike their chinese competitors, the governments around the world are tightening fuel economy standards and setting ambitious targets for the adoption. by 2031. automakers in the us most ensure their fleets, average 50.4 miles per gallon. up from the 49 miles per gallon required by

2026 the meeting. those goals will require that 35 to 56 percent of the vehicle sold be fully electric by 2030 to put such policies change with each new administration the i think you could see some of those policies were reversed or change like the the regulations could change which might slow down the transition from ice tvs so the automakers would be required to sell all fewer eaves to offset the ice vehicles. the legacy automotive brand, such as mercedes, gm and volkswagen for struggling to break with old value. and we think their

business model, they're developing new strategies and response to market dynamics and consumer preferences. that is where it's a good position to be in where your factor is can be able to both be these, but also high tech, electrified combustion vehicles. so we have the flexibility in our production system, but we're also reading the next generation of vehicles. mercedes and p w. s. put the brakes on their plans to be fully electric by 2030, reflecting a broader industry trend. the strategic pause allows them to further refine their i c. e models, while keeping an eye on consumer attitudes towards eaves. if you're a well run company, you try to match supply with demand overbuild leaves and there isn't the supply for them. they sit down the lots and lots of reasons. you see the electric plug that

speeds that would take us from point a to the future. dictated by that speed between consumer. volkswagen has earmarked tens of billions of bureaus for the development of internal combustion engines. this shift is driven by consumer hesitancy towards eaves, their high cost concerns overcharging, infrastructure and range anxiety. some models lots to adding to v w as was our weaker sales in china. there, the brand is seen as old school entertainment and fund designs are lacking. so the car maker is slashing production and it's 1st on the plant, yvonne where the load started right now we've gone from being an import and load started to an important size. my graph that stick all plant in sacks and he has produced electric cars exclusively since 2020 b, w invest, and 1200000000 euros to convert the factory fixed. technically you were in

a position to build 360000 units a year. currently, your output is around 240000 and that means one 3rd fewer cars are leaving the factory and entire shift has been eliminated. among the employees, concern is spreading. the brands are balancing their push for each of these with continued investment in i. c. e and hybrid technology still, if they missed the gold rush, that's the new e v market. they may never recover. i don't think that we have many years away. we have the not only half price barre fee between i see a better electric cost. but in the next 2 community even becomes cheaper. ford is also a hedging, it's bad. instead of the these, this plant in canada will build f series super duty pickups. ford is spending $2300000000.00 to install assembly and integrated stamping operations. edits

complex in oakville, ontario, the toyota, toyota, toyota, toyota, toyota. the world's biggest car company has adopted a cautious approach to known for its hybrids. toyota only recently entered the market with an easy for ex, which had one of the worst they used imaginable. find the goals so it's a toyota. many of the companies see the hybrid is an interim or a transitory solution. but it doesn't look like toyota will be abandoning internal combustion engines any time soon. they see the future as being i c e plus electric, along with mazda in subaru, toyota calls this. a multi pathway approach focuses on refining. i see.

so they can be used with electric motors and if used for carbon neutrality. because toyota is a full line in global company, we cannot leave anybody behind. that is the determination we have in that sense we have this approach called multi passed away, and we have to take it toyota is focusing on maintaining a range of power, train options to meet varying consumer needs. for decades, toyota corolla has been one of the world's best selling cards as the these gain traction in developed countries. list industrialized regions still rely heavily on icy vehicles due to cost and infrastructure constrain. toyota has that big on hybrid and i see technology an approach that works for them, at least for now. the

trap. have you ever seen the but the big danger is that you overestimate the potentially in this i would say, very ripe as much you what the chronology and that you forget to invest in the future will have to wait to see of toyota's gamble pays off in the long run, the, the future of internal combustion engines isn't a simple narrative of obsolescence, despise the global push towards electrification. ice, the vehicles will remain relevant, especially in regions with slower e v, adoption, rice, the loan life cycles, advice the vehicles mean they'll be on the road for decades. as ongoing. technological advances are making these engines more efficient and powerful. the

industry is moving towards a diversified approach to portfolio balancing the benefits of the these with the continued development of i, c, e, and hybrid technologies. what you're seeing now is a slight, didn't right on the road to the electrical ability because to whomever you're talking, the industry in the medium to that pass towards a sustainable will be the will in many, many, many use cases be an electric. what we should involve, we cannot stuff progress of clicking on it. okay. so and, and electric cars will be, you know, some of them technology in europe. so we'll, electric vehicles really kill the internal combustion car. the answer is a soft. no, but the shift the, this is inevitable driven by environmental imperatives and technological advances. so as we've seen, i've seen the vehicles will keep running strong, particularly in regions with slower ag adoption rates. yet carmakers slow to

switch gears and this ever changing markets could find themselves stranded by the roadside and out of gas and more automotive tales next time on risk. the the, the
