the left side of the community life on the surface is now on the on the left side of the i'd say, well let's find those the, this is the all new audi, each one g t prototype, a call that is set to come on to the market in 2024. so it's still in the early stages of development, and we are among

a few lucky wants to get the test drive test right now. welcome to read. journalists from around the world were invited to the deserts in oman. to take a look at the current state of the tron development, we decided to bring this current and develop very early development stage, which was this prototype drive here to, to off the list. how about the chiral? how is the behavior of the car and how the car fused to evaluate the feedback also under the seo and this is what the test drive is all about. the list with a different aspect that we should take a look at. well, for ability driving dynamics shots, the steering and many more, all of these can be graded from one to 61 being the best and 6, the worse. then after was audi, we'll take

a look at what we have rated the car and check whether and how they can improve it . and maybe you can even leave some comments. for example, i heard a strange noise at 80 kilometers an hour. maybe you should check that all of this is taken into account of when developing the new e strong g t. the but general driving impression in the g p is very nice. you have a call that is very well suited for long distance trips. it is quite silent then here it is very comfortable. and if you switch to dynamic mode, then it gets a completely different call that will give you almost anything you want. in terms of dynamic driving facts. since there's always room for improvement, we rated the car a solid to the acceleration is crazy. and also the way it handle its inc. curtis is

really, really good. a car in that price segment, or he cannot afford all any other comment. he cannot afford to make mistakes and they did definitely not making any mistakes. this call be it's very good despite the fact that it's not yet completely finished. the sound proofing in the interior is good, but also has room for improvement. so we give it another sound like to think that has all will be in touch team, then you each one g t. if the steering it has been made more direct, that means if you're driving do occur can need this turning off the steering wheel . that way is it sporty? a and of course also the re a wheel steering adds to that nimble speeding off the call. the precision of the steering is excellence and we give it a one while the steering feedback is a little too soft. so it only gets a to from what we can already see, the new e from g t is again, a real beauty. a hand is kept some features from its predecessor

a thing we can talk about because it's open and you can look at it is the steering wheel is flat at the top and at the bottom to give you that extra spalding, this looks quite nice with the center pause here and the audi logo in to the as it is with on you, all the cost looks quite good. and if you can see the buttons here are illuminated . that's because they are partially touched, operated, but not everything is you can use touch operations for sliding, for example, to adjust the volume or to search while the next previous station or the track. but if you want to use one of the, all the functions and that is also true for those, you need to press and then you will hear a clicking sound. so it's not completely touch, just listen to this. and this is what you hear, the feedback you get,

and then you will be sure that you didn't operate anything. you didn't want to end . to be honest, it looks quite nice, even though this is high gloss black, so it's quite susceptible for fingerprints. but the way it looks like the venue each round g t is equipped with active air suspension as you can see right here. next to me, this is the technology under the hood working the car is moving and the idea behind it is if you break, for example, the car will lean forward and that way the suspension will work against it. and also while accelerating it will work against it. at the back and that also works for driving into curves. so drive into right car, the car was normally lean to the left side and the technology can get the car to be straight or even to lean into the curb. and then will of course, make the call more dynamic. the amount of leveling can be adjusted with the drive

programs and can also be deactivated then that the car will always try to keep itself in level. so at 0 and if you activate those features, it. busy actively work even more against you're breaking or you accelerating part. i just need to go fast and that is not exactly for everybody. you can definitely p, p the difference the while driving you can choose between different dr. load efficiency come for a dynamic and the also to r as low as that. you can adjust to your liking in the standard configuration. the call will always start in comfort. and you can also adjust that. and this is where the active suspension comes into working. so the active curve tilting and the acceleration and braking conference can be activated or the activated in that mode

. the active suspension does a fantastic job. so we give it a perfect one. of course, if you choose the dynamic mode, not only will the cards celebrate fasta, but it will also give you some sound feedback on that. of course, it's not to be 8 or anything, but still a quite interesting sound that will help you match what you feel with what you hear . this sound is not for everybody. and as the levers we can only give it a mediocre 3. driving the new audi, each one g t was a real blast. the cars fast the car is nimble. and that despite the fact that it's still in the early development, so you can really feel the adaptive suspends and doing its work. and i'm really excited to see the finished product and maybe you knows some of my feedback will make it into the final cost. to sum up c r e tron, z t's active suspension,

steering precision, driving dynamics and operability of the accelerator were top notch with interior acoustics, steering feedback, and most other features, learning a solid to only the sound detained us, still acceptable. 3 audi has not yet released any of the cars, technical data or price. the more and more people want to fly. the industry measures of this in passenger kilometers, like distances, times people on board. and that adds up to a lot. since 2012 passengers have logged over 5.7 trillion kilometers in the air, and the trend is increasing only during the pandemic. was there any noticeable decline? but forecasts predict strong growth by 2041. humans will that flown over 20 trillion passenger kilometers. china is going to become and this is the largest and

transport market before the end of this decade. and what that means for china or line is it is going to be something like $1200000000.00 extra passenger jr. and these per year to from and within china, in 2014 compared with where we were in $29.00 saying air traffic is growing throughout asia, including in up and coming to india. the, you know, usually have 300000000 indians to are now classified as middle class. that is a shock because one of the criteria for being middle class and the global economy means that conceivably, you might fly. maybe even, you know, once every couple of years, that's extraordinary. due to this increasing demand for air travel, airports throughout the country are being modernized or newly built air india. he's

getting itself ready from new uniforms and new connections to order a 470 new boeing and airbus aircraft. the big truck into your traffic had been going through other people's airlines in the you know, where it's, frankly, were any good. but that has changed. and here india is now under new ownership, indigo. very good. everyone is expanding to international routes and all of them are ordering plans and hoping to get them soon. mobile demand for aircraft is increasing rapidly. wherever lines are expected to meet almost 41000 more aircraft by 2040 to boeing's and air buses. water books are already pretty filled up for the next decade. that's also an opportunity for new

competitors. chinese aircraft manufacturers wants to take advantage of this and know, developing new aircraft they've got the testing to it's a pretty good market. even if the, even of growth is slowing, a lot of government resources, the only thing they could do to screw up this formula is to do what they're doing. their strategy towards developing an airline industry. and airliner industry is kind of all wrong. they were demanding technology transfer with no intellectual property protection. the aircraft manufactured by chinese aviation companies are based on outdated western technologies, which has been updated in china. however, this has only been moderately successful so far. so their 1st production jet, the or j 21 was arguably the worst you had ever built as a consequence. and they're taking exactly the same approach with the c 919,

maybe the next time they'll get it right. but there are so many problems with this . the c 919 was tended to be a potential competitor to western manufacturers such as boeing and airbus. it was recently unveiled at this single port international aviation conference via crypt concurrently only be used in mainland china and international approvals has still not been secured. every airline would be delighted to have another manufacturer, especially those in asia. isaac pacific, we think, is going to be the fastest growing region the next 20 years. the population trends in asia suggests the young growing ending increasingly wealthy middle class. and it wants to see the world. it promises to be a gigantic growth market for the entire aviation industry. cars, cars,

a global phenomenon with millions of unique stories. that could be in a german coffin. we need you guys wherever you are. however, up here flickering. passion is our module and your stories. our currency, somebody, a refund comes from gemini and the craziest place all across to your stories you ideas come with the question is now flash next, right to wherever your sentence your stories and your crazy car into the let's catch up soon on ref. the just the 35 percent of the world's population drives in the left side of the road like i did for most of my life in india. of course this,

the people are driving on the right hand side is wrong. why is this on which side of the road has people historically driven? how did the legs of napoleon and hitler play a part in getting people to switch sites with campbells that really prevent focused on from making the change? and which side of civil jelly is safe to drive on? jab builds into the history of list tonight's and drones. driving say that's one of the 1st things i needed to come to terms with when i moved the country for 2 years ago. which got me thinking why to some countries drive on the left side of the road and others on the right side who got to decide this. and what did the engines romans have to do with it all? well, let's find those driving type seem pretty fix. don't the most if you're in north america drive on the right side, the road by the britain and its former colonies like india focused on history on new zealand, south africa, hong kong single, the list goes on to drive on the list. and while it seems like all the respective

rules are set in stone, you will be surprised to know that as recently as 2009 countries with do changing the mind. yes, it's 6 pm on september 7th, 2009 in the tiny island nation of some more voice crackled over the video, telling people to stop debbie, who goes wherever they will. it was the country's police. mr. you repeat it to you? yeah, for 5 pc reading people for the country is big switch from the right to the left side of the road. the reason the government warranted to adopt the same driving standards as the islands near this neighbors was freely a n u z lynn, because it would make importing vehicles into the country, easier for some ones who would then also have access to cheapest 2nd hand cards. believe i don't know if the transition went smoothly, they would, no accidents reported during the switch over which was regulated by the police. the

only 0 complication was that the someone's hadn't figured out what to do with their buses, which still had doors that opened on the right hand side. which meant that for the why the to the switch, someone's was stepping off the buses into the middle of the street. something that eventually resulted but long before the people of some more i began to debate which side of the road to drive on the engine romans had already picked sides. c, somewhere between inventing concrete and aqueduct did also gone in boots. the very 1st druids, and along with this they decided which side of the road people ought to be on. and according to them, it was best to keep lift. it turns out that were 2 reasons for this. first, back in ancient room, people travelled on horseback, since most people are right and dominant said mount the horses from the left side, and they'd use their right hands to we did this. words should be made to baffle enemies along the way. which meant it was easier to stick to the left side of the road and, and chad you kids would use their lift,

tends to hold the dns to the horses using that domain in july it tends to with best thieves all their rivals on the check. it's also said the poor boniface, the issue, the people edicts in 1380 stating all the drums traveling to rome or to stick to the list. although there doesn't appear to be any hard evidence of please. in fact, peter can get or put up a book called if you look through it seems to have uncovered evidence to the quantity. at any rate, the change of keeping lift spread across the entire roman empire, which extended over half of the yard and further to feed. and that's how traffic running on the list became. the no documented evidence of left side traffic exists in britain wade and the 18th century. the london bridge act required traffic over the teams to keep list. and in the 19th century, the hi we activate in 35 made driving on the left side of the road. nationwide low this into and meant the british colonies around the world are the same standards.

so it's driving on the left side of the road was the knob when and why did people begin to switch over? well, a bad into it has something to do with the resolutions and one thing to break with the past. it speculated that the americans 1st switch to using the right side of the road after the war of independence. it was a way of breaking with the colonial past and an attempt to denounce established conventions, but the 1st documented evidence of american drawer traffic being asked to keep right within the 1792 pennsylvania statute. with a ton psych or toy road being moved from lancaster to philadelphia, the statute required on traffic to keep to the right to fit the bike. but even before this, american traffic had slowly been shifting to the dates. thanks to the conestoga wagons. these huge, either uniquely shaped cabbages were off employed by 24 or 6 horses, in order to control them. by the way, you would sit under your left pause,

allowing his right hand to do most of the work with the whip, which also meant that keeping the night aloud for better visibility of february the head. since the day that would be able to judge oncoming traffic. that would cost to the list. and while people began switching sides and the new was winds of change were blowing across the order to it, speculated the defend chevy use. and had a similar effect on trans as the american board of independence had in the usa. in a be to break which additions defense rejected to keep the left decree that had been imposed on them extensively by the church. but there is another purity, the apple plastic drove in cabbages that would keep left forcing the peasants onto the right side of the street off to the us and it was safer for the ditch to fall in line by switching to the right side of the street that's avoiding standing up too much and potentially being sent to the gear team. and there's another priority to it has to do with the little man in

a blue jacket who had enrollments amounts of influence in crohn's and your to, to before he saw l by that is it's often said that napoleon himself was left handed. so that's the hand with which he'd viewed his sword, therefore, preferred riding on the right side of the road, which he in throne forced on the rest of the french empire as his armies march 2 yards and eventually parts of africa and north america. they took the key pride with them, was finally suspended north america sconces keeping right the advent of the lord. okay. given that keeping j toys ready become the norm in the us. it's no surprise the when the 1st phone model, the droid off. henry ford's assembly line it had the steering wheels placed on the left, which naturally meant it was easier to drive and the guy simply to the drivers could see better. just not to see us up in canada, some provinces to open the lift,

but other to a one day depending on whether they used to be british or french calling in between routes will be to connect to canada. would be us keels interviewed to the decision was made the switch today the day. incidentally, this was the same side of the little bit, tied you and put back the 2 largest provinces in the country already used. vancouver was the last city in canada to make the switch at 6 in on the 1st of january, 1922. back in your keeping right was gaining popularity. germany officially adopted driving on that side and 19 pen as he played against friends in europe. he began to impose all right and several of the head of trees like austria entered the dock you hungry, which on till then had persisted in driving on the left finally made the switch in 1941 eventually the full country in continental yard. if the drove on the list was sweden, which brings us to diagnose it, or rather chaslek on logan,

and which translates to diet and traffic. so your organization quite the tongue twister and possibly be as complicated the pronounced as it was to execute. in 1967, the swedes decided that a switch to driving on the right side of the road would benefit them since it would be across the board of traffic complications within notice neighbors, finland, n or we, since the country already used left hand drive cars, which could lead the quite sensibly drive on the right side of the road. and since the number of cars was expected to substantially increase over the next 2 years, they settled on the date for the switch. sweden had an executive campaign to make sure the drivers wouldn't forget that they were meant to swap sides. the dog and each logo was amazing, doing everything from bikini bottoms to wife runs. and so there was even a contest with pop band competed to make a song about the switch, the winning entry, a song called to the to who the swenson. ok,

you spend the night swinson performed by the tales. does the part of the process with motor this accident fee that will major logistical challenges because everything from road signs to bus stops needed to be swapped. the operation costs sweden, a whopping 120000000 swedish krona. that's roughly 160000000, your goal is to date and the country was left with the surplus buses with doors that opened out on the left side, which the eventually shipped to kenya and focused on speaking of pakistan. it's been suggested that the country also considered switching from driving on the left to the right to be could the colonial past. unfortunately, at the time a lot of state goods were moved using camels, which had all been changed to walk on the left side of the road. it has been

a ledge. the g training obstinate can move to go on the right side of the road was to begin ask and so plans for the switch for a band and the bid is bare the side of the road that's better and safer to drive on and is the left or the right side of the road, the actual right side for 2020 study hypothesize that there was a link between hosts if left tend or right hand traffic was. and you to pick the logical factors like which can you prefer, which of your eyes is dominant and which side of the brain you use more? the study, analyze existing accident quotes to try and find which side of the road is felicia for and was 50 years or so ago. there was some evidence that countries with lift pen traffic supported fuel road accidents. the study eventually didn't deliver consumers of results. instead it said because of split into the right hand and right i dominance driving on the left could possibly be safer. nonetheless,

it's certainly not the most popular choice. lloyd over of course the has been other countries and dedicated underwood switch, driving sides over the years. japan drives from the left side of the road, but after world war to canada was on the american control and to switch to driving on the drive. in contrast to the rest of the country, it was only in 1978 and what was called the 7 put the change over that attributed to driving on the left. iceland, ideas here early on human and kinda all switch driving. so i did various points in time to but perhaps the quick youth which has them all happened in myanmar. on 6th december 1917 young myers been still quite boma switched from driving them to miss side to the day because the country's lead a ginger may win since you've exceeded. but since they don't need driven drive time drive cars until then they simply move them over to the right side of the road. a practice which continues to be in modern day. me and my possibly the only country

in the world right and drive cause will cecily drive on the right side of the road . unusual to say the least and more automotive tales. next time on the,
