motors in the front work as engines to power the front wheels in the bucket the motors are built into the wheels themselves. this is truly rare right now nobody else can demonstrate this to the car moves with all four wheels and every wheel is controlled independently depending on the traction. but if it slippery power is reduced if the speed is too low power is increased this is said to depart from all other types. of secondly the in wheel motor frees up a lot of space inside the car so a lot of electrical energy is stored in the small space of the lithium ion batteries but. a regular car would go forty kilometers with his battery stuck with the sort of killing that the. ration system built in here as well so the car can go seventy kilometers but all the braking energy first goes to the capacitor and then is used on the car's movement. of. the inspiration for the system came from designers of moscow's only reusable spacecraft and developing the countless new engineering solutions were found but at the time it just wasn't possible to apply those in civilian sectors but now nearly twen

you know, it's funny that you talk about an engineer saving ford motor company.i remember the first time i ever interviewed alan at any length was about six weeks after he started, and he came to downtown detroit to meet with us at the detroit news. and i'll never forget as we were walking out after the interview, he said let me tell you something, he said, engineers are the source of all value creation in this company. the bean counters don't create anything. got to keep that in mind. [laughter] i remember he was talking about how he was going to empower engineers which i'm sure you've experienced firsthand. um, but, you know, those are good questions. i mean, he is one of the highest-paid executives, he is the highest-paid executive in the auto industry, and i've asked him about that, you know? he believes that it's a testament to his value that he's contributed to the company. on the other hand, you know, a lot of people lost their jobs over this period of restructuring, as you know, and, you know, i think it's hard for some of those people to see him making s

but the police helped the man take the motor bike. and at one point he's here talking to two police and then he walks away and he comes back with two other gentlemen. >> well, maybe this guy is like a crazy smooth-talker and convinced the police this bike was his and he had somehow lost the keys somewhere and he needed help getting it home. >> maybe he graduated from crazy smooth talker school. >> well, sten,ere's the way out of the situation and then came back holding hands with one guy, inexplicably and another guy. and officials say this is under investigation. police say the stolen bike was recovered, but they're keeping it while they figure out what exactly went down in this whole investigation. >> so here's the thing. if the guy truly is a crazy smooth talking, who knows what he said? he could have said anything. >>> a couple of elephants hanging out in the river, and -- >> keep your eyes on the trunk of the elephant on the left-hand side of your screen. >> no way. >> yes, way. see what chases the elephants to dry ground. here w

our engineers realized that they can try and make a compact motor. today it would in a twenty inch wheel. we can fit an electric engine bus that it's addictive each t.v. gets in the fridge during acceleration can increase power up to fifty kilowatts that is going to be deceptive according to tampa engineers and that's a one and a half times more than any other similar in wheel mode on the market the secret to this lies in two sets of opposing magnets that was around a stationary coil which offers more pushing power than the traditional set up of one electromagnetic field and so when you combine all four wheel motors in addition to the direct application of power you get a fully electric vehicle with plenty of get up and go but like with all green machines the proof of the pudding is really in the battery. here tim squeezes the same performance from a smaller power pack by using what's called a super capacitor it more efficiently stores and releases energy and since batteries make up around seventy percent of an electric vehicles cost any reduction he

motors are inserted directly inside the wheels. it's called in-wheel motor technology.ince the power efficiency increases with this technology, the vehicles can achieve a mileage rate 30% more than existing electric cars. sim-wil was developed by thin drive corporation, a venture capital company. this professor has been leading the project. the firm is choosing multicompany collaboration instead of in-house development. they say that this is a more efficient way to promote the industry. thin drive could spark a trend. the vehicle's extended mileage goes beyond in-wheel motors. technologies from a range of industries are being used. chemical companies and parts manufacturers have helped reduce the weight of the vehicle. >> translator: it's a completely new principle. everything is ground breaking. until now, it was the norm to make cars from steel. but on top of that, i think we're going to see more new materials being used. >> reporter: the chemical company dupont japan saw it as a good chance to enter the ev industry. one of their special films is being used in the ind

there was no possibility of that happening with general motors and chrysler.o your other question about spending and government spending -- yes, i believe that government spending and all the actions taken by president bush and president obama were instrumental in preventing a far deeper recession and economic collapse. >> it is interesting -- there is a tradition as the was in europe, that the american model might be one that helps europe, which has had a harder time getting out of the doldrums? >> yes, that is a much bigger subject. is hard to draw an immediate parallel between what we have seen in your today and the u.s. i will say that the politics to this day in the united states -- when it comes to the issue of the bailout -- the issue really is a bailout for wall street. and the perception remains in the middle of the country that wall street got lots more money than any other economy sector. i think that is the fundamental issue democrats and republicans are having to fight over. >> thank you very much indeed. that is all we have time for on "newsnight

the government needs to do today in my opinion, not try to pick winners and losers among general motors or ford or whatever the case may be, but to provide the incentives for the private sector to build vehicles and help drive the cost of the battery down and increase the range so that for light duty vehicles, there is an alternative to fossil fuels. it's not going to replace it. plenty of internal combustion engines are going to be built for a long time. so i think that's different than picking a winner and it's certainly not the same as the government putting money into solyndra or putting money into solar or what have you. that is worth an environmental issue. we have lots of power generating fuels in the united states. we have coal. we have natural gas. we have geothermal. we have -- we have certainly solar and wind, but they're a tiny fraction. we have nuclear and so forth, so we don't have to pick a winner or loser of the power sector, which is the primary propulsion capability, which i think and bob lutz has forgotten more about this than i'll ever know, but i think that the traj
