You could think todays test car is a mini, but its not. Instead its b r, a funky kid. And on user a companion, thats what they call make a claims. And well pull that to the test right now. Walk them through the or a brand belongs to the chinese conglomerate. Great wall motors. When a child is old, is major car makers. We are a funky, cant deliver 127. 00 kilowatts of power and for a cause. It is rather small that fields around the sporty. So if you press the gas pedal, it goes off pretty fast. It has the ability to go from 0 to 100 miles an hour in a little more than 8 seconds. And the top speed is kept at 116 kilometers, which is more than enough to full every day driving, especially in the city of forest. But also all the german auto body, you could use that car because you have a lot of places. Well there is max of 130000. 00. So this car can handle that without a problem. The, the b r a funky cat is available with 2 different battery size as the entry level version 48 kilowatt hour. Busy and the bigger 163 kilowatt hours, that will give you a range of either 310 kilometers or 420. 00. Busy the big one, and that is quite some range for such a small car, especially if you plan to use it mainly in the city where small costs have the whole. Basically, that is more than enough to take you to your work place the whole week before you need to recharge the cost. Thats quite nice. The, the 1st thing that came to my mind when i saw the all funky cat is it some what looks like a mini the and the mini is also available in a purely electric version. And you wouldnt believe it. The mini is the cheaper car. It comes into the wrong 35700. 00 euros. Follow the base vague and in germany and this call or a funky kid starts at around 38900 euros and so quite a bit more the, the or still is the better call that may explain why. The many has a very small battery. We talking about around 36 kilowatt hours of usable energy, and that will give you a little more than 200 kilometers of range. And that is virtually nothing compared to the 310 kilometers you get in the entry level of. Busy of d r. So are on 100 kilometers more. That is quite a bit of usability that you gain with that car and dollar a funk. You can also have a lot of things that come as standards that you will not find in the meaning. The Standard Equipment use includes the leather seats, a 360. 00 degree camera, and a bunch of driver assistance systems. First thing you notice when you sit in the interior, the college does not have a start stop button. Instead it will light up once you get inside. And so you can then simply press the brake pedal, put it to the with this knob right here. Its a turning up now where the la costa dont have a start stop button. And once youre finished, you simply press p, get off the call, lock it, and then it will turn off. Instead, you could also press a button that is right here behind the Steering Wheel that shuts down the car as well, but there is no need for that. You can simply get out and close it. Now lets look at the interior. You have 2 screens, one with the in southern cluster and the other one is in full time and, and everything else. It is not that big. And as im sitting here right now, it is not that good to reach, but its touch operated. So height is a little small for touch operation, but dont worry, you can also use most of the functions with a Voice Assistant and that voice assistance is either operated by saying hello and then the name of the brand. I wont do it because it will then power on or you can give it your own name if you have a name that you always liked. You can. Busy grab it in and then you can say things like, mike, yes, on he can you open the window for me . Opening that does not only work with the pre record of things. So things that con, no, its some sort of of the official intelligence and this call will learn from what youre saying. And then it will be able to, for example, put on the climate are open the window. Busy without you saying, do this, ill do that, but simply by saying that your heart. But you need to be aware of the fact that if you choose a name, that sounds a little bit like something else. For example, youre talking about the strike. Once. Thats what happens. So choose a name that is not very common in the language youre using. The use screen set up comes standard or the Voice Assistant is not only work for things inside of the car. Hey mike, im listening open the trunk schoolteacher, which is pretty practical for example, in the winter when it will be dirty and you dont want to get your hands dirty, can use it or if you have hands full can use it as well. Talking about the trunk, it can fit up to 850. 00. A lead is with the receipts folded down. If you bring them back up, you left with 228 leaders, which is not exactly a huge s you can tell, but its good enough for you a week. The grocery shopping, the general driving impression in this car is pretty nice. It is silent in the interior. As i mentioned earlier, it also has a nice acceleration. Of course, its not a sports car, but you can go into car. So a little faster then with some of the cars. The thing i really like in this car is the suspension. It is a very good job of giving you a relax comfortable drive, and this is not a usual thing. You will find in cars in that small car segment. The a big i dont really like about the function code is the maximum charging speed and that is 60. Busy kilowatt now, considering that is a small car, it is only a mine, a drawback, because small cost, as i mentioned, the you will not want to use them regularly for Long Distance trips. So you will also not be in the need. All 3, charging your call fast, it will charge it at home at your wall box, ideally, or your workplace. And then you have the time because either you will be sleeping or you will be working. So thats no problem, but it would be better if it could judge. They will pass that because there are other costs and then segment that can do that with. For example, 100. 00 kilowatt of the are a funky kids. Also comes with different drive modes, but what i find rob, strange is that the box and for it is found right here, the left on the Steering Wheel way, usually found the light on all the cars. And if you press it, you will get the acoustic feet back and you can change between 4 modes. Basically, 3 modes that is explored equal and normal. You can also put it into also then the call would choose the appropriate knowledge for your style of driving. Further assistance is provided by blind spot assist, traffic gym assist lane, keeping aid and more. All of these come at a standard or a put a lot of effort in this car. And you can also see that by the result theyve got in the euro and cap trash test because it was one of the best vehicles in the small vehicle segment that has ever been tested. The, the r a funky cad is definitely a funky car, especially with its unique and new features. For example, the Voice Assistant, i really liked it. Its learning. Its customizable, its pretty cool. The design is quite cute. Not exactly what i would buy for myself, but im quite sure this car will find a lot of friends just like the mini did. The only thing im a little concerned about is the price tag, because as a chinese manufacturer are coming to a market that already has a lot of other costs in that segment. And then having a call that is a little more expensive, might alienate people before they realize that there is quite a lot in this call that you get for the money on all the, for the cat is very Good Alternative to the courage. Many electric, smart voice assistance, a decent range and adequate space. You need to make it a suitable everyday can. And on the downside, the charges slowly has limited trunk space and a fairly high price. The up to move in a 1000000 kilometer is this. The citys tax, the 11 is for the unbreakable. Im the oldest cab driver around here. I would say i have driven here since around 1955. The mercedes w 110 is 60 years old and its driver omar is going strong at 89. The legend is always on the move in the lowest lab and then the we jumped in for a ride with a veteran cab driver and is the machine well, the good, well is even the more moses along it initially pays no one this to home get him i learn how to drive the the around here. Everyone loves me. Truth is everyone loves each other here the cities together, the festival. And they said, oh more and i, when you are the king of the districts, thats how it was said. Somebody might have to be i can say that i loved everybody and Everybody Loves me by gods grace to add up when i was 21 and 1955, i got my drivers license and then started working as a taxi driver. We have at the 1st here in the region that i moved and then further away rather, and shes not happy with that stuff that im moving very well and weve travelled everywhere and the customers often came up to me and asked me, will you drive me to assemble going back to this area, is that the ones that that i always say yes. Go on the, let me. It isnt just a mom whos traveled far and wide, so 2 houses, necessities. The w 110 built between 196168 was particularly popular with cabbies because of its reliability, comfort and lots trunk. Easy to recognize thanks to its short tail, sends an image to american costs of the 60s of if thats yeah. Hey, let me know if this car is my sweetheart. I have a sometimes the engine is very old. Ive got a lot of ways that i have at least 40 years old. And that is avenue and that the i bought it runs a route and then how many kilometers has it run . And i was in turkey with it. I went as far as the symbol they look like that what this car is all original i that i havent changed the thing to them. It simply runs. Its a wonderful car. This my original upholstery, i left it as it was. You guys have the had the, these are tools and the spare parts in case something happens when i draw it as low as about. My names jen rogers, i of course i need them the matter of having them so that im independent is own was and human that the fizzy both the car in 1975 pix names, only thing is original except for replacement hood ornaments. I for the mercedes and the because ive tried and ive tested it read through, i tried a toyota which is also good to you when a good fit. I used to have a toyota precedent, but that didnt stick with me to lie right. The but i just never so this machine is not, its simply not for sale or i know nobody is selling this car. Whats more important cars or women . Why its absolutely clear. I know have that for me, is the car i feel good in here and everything just for you as a right fit for you. And thats why i lauras been on lebanese rides for decades. He knows and looked at the back of his hand. And then, and thats not all that youre seeing is quite often here, that the way that the monthly operability should learn how to drive up front of the bad weather. I guess thats why the car was acting up the, the tanks empty. Its like this. They all around 40000 registered taxi drivers and 11 and many without drivers licenses. 0 blackening the severe economic crisis and the high cost of field in the country, the food was refilled. This societies is on the moves again. The was the very good the i love that i mean the color of the older, its been 10 years since omar, especially, we tell it he still drive his taxi and people still one to ride within the, in the streets of lebanon on special, but tough to rain but go no problem, let me know and i will have people dont care on track me down. Theres an accident, nobody cares. And thats why thats why you need solid, strong cars, like the old classic cars allowed as otherwise you wont be able to handle the bad roads. High levels of you live at the omar and his necessities. Thats an adaptive challenge to legends from back to 11 and much made in heaven and from the cold the king of kings the.
