up to several completely different. design and. together with its external appearance. of the body it is one of a kind worldwide heart is the engine the result of cooperation between engineers. companies which has a volume of three point six liters the maximum. hundred twenty horsepower and it weights in it only eleven hundred kilos the basic prize of a one hundred thousand euros. just behind the project. in the recent presentation of the car at the sixty third international out of the frankfurt i ate two thousand and nine.
9:03 pm
talk his car making. the head of the model projects we are making cars. presidents where making an attempt to create so i actually know we have created a car which would brought to make a presentation at the sixty third international motor show in front. of you so we can write. do you think. they receive you. can say that i was expecting a warm welcome. oh my expectations it's not that i came here to shamelessly advertise my campaign. by
9:04 pm
a huge number of articles both russian and foreign are jewels the german magazine mailed it to beat. i know about it so where are they all sickles nation i mean your own impression how did you feel there is that they like your project which i know you wanted to have so was it was an. official well first of all what do you mean by a sensation at the level of the first three to the space in europe though of course that was not our plans but it was big news of course all of the world's major car makers knew that we were designing a new car but nobody could predict that it would bring a performance ready cars or front for it's not a prototype or a plastic model car with the doors that you cannot do it i brought a performance ready car because i get inside and off you go that's what's really came as a surprise. designers work and it's quality were praised. and the huge number of new partners so we have to tame there is the same sort of orders
9:05 pm
. you mentioned the build magazine and the all to go right and this is the german call magazines reactions from. the motor show. and ferrari have a worthy alternative. i hope you understand that. we won't win the rivalry with porsche and ferrari nationally but can you explain. this alternative mania we. see still i will try to explain it briefly. i've come to car make things work for because i spent almost twenty. eighteen years of my life motor racing and eight of them abroad at least the i worked for four years. before i was a champion and the rest of time i spend with british. computer that's why i have a clear picture of what a car is. as you know her. a.g.t.
9:06 pm
serious formula one car making it is it's best the latest car making technology first appears there and then in a few years but its reach is the way many car manufacturers would do. for car racing i never. had that feeling all the door to a secret lab or which already been open for a short while but they're always closed many thousands then they open for a while to the general public and then bang they close again you go to their boat yes yes that's the way it is. and when you work with their racing team with about sixty talk of engineers employees working h one ten technology begin with you start to understand how the car world and the car business works. but you also realize that our car customers today unfortunately have a very low level of access to the results. of what i mean is that the cars that are generally available today in showrooms some will even the best of them would. just
9:07 pm
fifteen or twenty percent of the technology that could be implemented it will really need to know we need to have are implementing to acknowledge it is a company by huge difficulties down the example of the vase shows that we too well she was. enormous car manufacturing concerns are too bulky to respond to the markets quickly let's take a loss of time and money to develop and launch new models. in reality the situation is quite different today for example the harmony of factors that produce and sell engines drives mufflers nuts and bolts and so on. day anyone can come to a spare parts shop and buy enough parts to assemble a car we wouldn't be. so this is the very principle that we base our concept on and besides i decided to make a platform issue that would. allow having to change and nobody shall see me in the
9:08 pm
. dream fly into space and most young men dream of building a car on their own. people consider the total ignorance when you said you were serious about building a russian super cool. didn't people try to send you to a psychotic trust when you said you'd make a lamborghini rivaling call. were you didn't they say you were mad when you know nobody called me crazy much attention to my idea either they told you a crazy so there was no need to react to it for me. well yes actually the image of them can now is that of a loony doing things that few normal people would do been a sort of a jack of all trades doing this and that and whatnot but my idea might look silly but still need to have a certain understanding of the processes it's quite feasible in reality is that unfortunately our country now has a huge shortage of qualified personnel. who do know the car making industry very
9:09 pm
hard to find especially given the way we are building our cars. is quite an advanced method because i allowed myself to develop everything in computers because it's the usual way is to build a prototype. which is then tried and tortured for a long time and serial production only begins after all of the walls have been ironed out and the prototypes are on our way with fake small box with a computer computer of course we need young people to know all that's madly complex computer software and so on. it is said to develop your computer this comes home they will say is the road surface like you know it is it smoothly has a. whole serious of misconception of you when you quite a bunch might notice that the automobile manufacturing industry targets it that the average customer. we have to maybe has reached such
9:10 pm
a level and that's going any new car the chinese korean or german or we have them is equally good for the consumer. it's true the best car is a new call by at the best car is a new car. so they are old perfectly fine for the russian road i see. a lot about our roads being bad but it's not only russia there are plenty of bad roads all around the world but i like to say. one more thing just to explain a sports car means big power and if you are a full engine in the first place. then is the metal allies which have to endure quite a lot if you know. say it lead in the road is nothing for a horse. it's no problem for a porsche to run over pits. you have to know it's no problem for the called look at all the people who ride in it you must know yourself you get a kick about your part of the it's not very comfortable to there i don't think well
9:11 pm
i'd really come to know there's a specialist company in moscow that. makes the hire post a question here right but i'd like to say another thing that a sports car even if you drive an ideally smooth road like in germany a car is the kind of car which requires. not very comfortable and i'm talking about all car projects by trying to make this a special on the steering system in the level of driving comfortable so to say when i was thinking of the modern drive a little we in russia but also in the west i tried to make it comfortable i didn't want our customers to feel as if they paid a lot of cash for go carts and they are having a miserable time and she. is the steering wheel on the right you have the picture wrong here in fact it was so small but just as the steering wheel was on the right in fact. is mirrored developing a model with the steering wheel on the rights. that's naturally for anyone to use
9:12 pm
and that everything in a car i mean everything is russian made is it didn't borrow anything i don't mean the parts and components i mean the design and everything it's like you've invented your own bicycle all from scratch. i have good news for you but it's the creation process was quite painful. the point that's. that we are still getting at soul ships in the car buying high tech very high tech manufacturing machinery because a huge amounts of things because that's had to give up the idea of using third party suppliers because it makes it more complicated with customs and so on i mean in a nutshell this car is eighty five percent genuinely made in russia and if i get it right there was no animal testing in the process none of it says. spotlight will be back shortly we will continue this interview in less than a minute breaks out stay with.
9:13 pm
hungry for the full story we've got it first the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers on. every month we give you the future we help you understand how to get there and what to bring the best in science and technology from across russia and around the world join us technology update on r g. one of the key elements of democracy which is so uncomfortable for me afford. who pays for the news. how dependent business independent media. and who is behind the t.v. story. georgian media fiction and reality. t.v. . i. just
9:15 pm
welcome back the spotlight i'm going to have and just a reminder that i guess today is nikolaj familiar well known russian musician action and racer who is also the brains behind the modern sports car project. talking about your cost of washing away mushy you mention something revolutionary and say you took what it looked at its issues interchangeable call me in the. minds of those watch brands you know where you might look different styles to go along with your outfits. in the military as far as i know such watches are not for populist even among those who really like to match their clothes and accessories can you point to why this idea. is a kind of a gadget. i'll explain clearly it's not that simple. so i wouldn't simplifies when i say that you can own several car bodies for one platform yes indeed so but it is. doesn't mean you buy a car which looks like
9:16 pm
a cardboard box or something and no you get a real absolutely or real complete car. with a huge range of features. carbon fiber. but i can say that when you batch of cars is made of thing you material. new material brain your revolutionary material is a leader in the advanced technologies system it's not pure carbon anymore no technology it's polyurethane and it's very serious large scope i can see that there is a lot of work in this area in a way in russia and interchangeable comedy explain why and how to do it ok let's take a look here we can see the car model called the two isn't yours. of the same platform i'm sure that if you buy this model you'll be happy with it and you'll use it for a long time. and you won't come back to us saying it's you know take this car body off and give me a different one instead of merely saying that this platform now take
9:17 pm
a look at it so we see the difference this is how this model looks and the wax and read the one you saw earlier has a completely different bloke going to the platform is one in the same consider is german a car if it's serious six seven or eight seed you always see the same car right so it is easy to see it's just the same car but in our case it's a completely different car don't quite understand the. different abilities on the car the client as i said the plan of course. i won't be able to swap the bodies my so no you won't if i come to you you'll change it to me of course we will. take some time and money. less than buying a new car. but it's affordable. as you can have different styles for cost in the morning and then they have one so that's how it sounds in the newspapers like it's a gadget well it's not like that a car or something more serious you know. there is one more thing about this car
9:18 pm
that i am proud of it's the cars multimedia system that nobody else has got is good for video cameras sky if you're conferencing internets why max you name it. it's essential i think doesn't detract from driving. is essential to be able to obtain information on the way for example you're on your way and you don't know where traffic jams are when you understand. most. visual systems that television and so on is an. immediate no doubt about that of course but then the passenger can still do a lot of thing was by the way speaking of driving safety our cars not only have the welcome message but also navigation per meter is projected on the windshield. just like the head up display system in russian fighter jets really are right only better. than the information on the uniform and i'm sure
9:19 pm
he knows you're an avid racer he. says that the car is well suited. but also for comfortable driving. are important since. used to buy porsches and. they realized it is difficult to drive in moscow. to ferrari's realized they were not as good from moscow either. because they are very comfortable that expensive and generally good alternative did you mean by saying your car is good for driving what is the most fundamental. of course we are different from ben play because our car has different dimensions a different height and it's like three times faster than the bentley to allegedly have to get over with teach him how much does it take to get to one hundred that depends on the specific issue order we can develop three point two seconds two hundred we're not making such a car now but we can do it. and how quick is the basic the entry level car
9:20 pm
will go to one hundred kilometers in four and a half seconds. yes four and a half seconds to hundred fifty however my objective was imagine a car named lamborghini which is quite difficult to sit in and quite tricky to drive for a whole number of reasons. it's almost a racing car. our car you can sit comfortably while still a sports car it's comfortable and easy to drive but when you feel like doing some traffic watch racing you'll have to concentrate and but if you're going to traffic jams you will have no problems that whole bit just as it's lazy when you're not in the ferarri that's for sure things. will drive right of course. great comfortable and generally excellent and even smile every time you mention has . been accused of
9:21 pm
a now. well that's only for now. as for my car actually this very car is currently undergoing testing on a test range. i also have access to two other cars as all the rest have already been sold and belong to the clients. and they are in final production sure you know . how many cars if you build seventy seventy you have sold fourteen so far. we have built a total of twenty one cars seventeen is the number of cars sold down payments have been received for them and their production is seventy percent complete now. there are three cars and your design room already and you can drive them well in fact the rough five ready made cars. you can say. we need two of them do not move we do not touch them the are used as a museum exhibit while the other three are you. used by the way the widespread. is
9:22 pm
on its way from france. and it's a huge it's just coming to moscow very soon even and they can be seen in moscow. being tested or they simply being driven around the city. does it mean that these cars are not easy to drive in the city that no one can do it is to drive to work they are being tested. you know that's not the truth but i would drive them when i go to work with pleasure i will be driving one in the screening in the summer and in the autumn and i will give you a try as well if you like i think you will see that you can drive it to work as well here the problem may not be the driving itself but you should understand that it's a big car you see it's a big beautiful speedy car driving into work to an electronics market and meet in a may not be appropriate i mean it's going as for me i used to work clothes do not shift on sunday and finish on monday so that's fine with me gravy traffic's not
9:23 pm
have it this time the car is very light it weighs around eight hundred kilos doesn't it. would be safe is this lot of time paul phone call you know. we're going to. your cell and it's a people right i mean come on people rather than racing. you should understand that a car is your method to be used to get a license plates only after and complicated certification process this process is very complex there is both russian and european certification seriously tested. as this. yes including crash tests. this is a long and complicated process will have some minor things to think of course but on the whole with all the airbags everything has gone through all the tests right sure if you could so significances your own to rule for today our car matches the euro five standard euro fars this it sure has taken. gas emissions
9:24 pm
a cold. one hundred ninety six rams it's. produced such calls from a commercial point of view you are selling something already. yes yes yes here's what i've got to say about it as far as i'm concerned if we sell about one hundred or one hundred fifty of these cars per year it will be a great result because as far as marketing approach is concerned we are following in the footsteps of porsche produce a sports car of the very beautiful and with a different modifications present an s.u.v. a crossover a very large in size on the same base that not a soul like in that store of the replaceable body you don't know the cars will have different bodies and basis we don't have a large platform almost the same size as like you seven. and it also be fast the doubt about that well you sure know about that as he would be that the porsche makes for a high end at what they're after that's the foremost we use in our production. but
9:25 pm
there was a major mistake in the market in approaching surely didn't think of anything to say with a new claim it to be the fastest s.u.v. ever nation which is similarly the fastest s.u.v. ever it's like say in the driest why is it necessary to have an s.u.v. that's fast. our car will be within the range of a general understanding. at least that's how i define its term goals and which of them would be i don't think the crossover should be mega fast. this should be a car that can do a lot. of presents all the latest power train achievements. as well as the latest security achievements for the inside of the car. there's a huge multimedia system that's been developed by our programmers a great number of surprises. almost to live in use even this is not a family. you know it will be produced in several modifications
9:26 pm
the whole family will be no doubt comfortable in this car and excited to be in one so i can tell you that the back of this car will install the multimedia systems in that especially for children gameboy is just going to be there in the next box thank you very much for being with us and just to remind that my guest in the studio today was. a well known russian rock musician actor and racer who is also the ideology behind the matter who sat on a patch and that's it for now from all of us here will be back tomorrow with more comments on what's going on in and outside russia until then stay and take.
