Both in the commute we focus on Green Technology overall is to keep up the move in the field right. And also feature head to heads. And the latest launches. Pocket in this it would fall out of an exhibit of trust and smoke bill any stories from around the world thats a good. Business and welcome to breath. We come to this beautiful beach in denmark for a very special kind of speech challenge. S. U. V. S are struggling with their public image at the moment theyre seen as climate killers gas guzzlers and polluters but at the same time theyre more popular than ever among car buyers. And this is the muscle car among the s. U. V. S the 550. 00 horsepower. Porsche cayenne to pay its fuel consumption way more than 10 liters per 100 Kilometers Per Hour car tester jean is convinced it will beat all comers in a straight sand sprint. This Power Washing is all the idea of a posh. Just want the seats. Of the old 911. On the other side you might think about it if you need 550 horsepower and a lot of all ranks of holes but the good thing is everyone can decide for yourself. If youre going to thrash around a high powered s. U. V. So you need to come to a place like buy your strong denmarks west coast yes but they need to let you drive here of course the beaches are more crowded in summer have to beaches here in the municipal turlock see theres a couple of beaches further up north and on the islands of climate and failure and the reason we choose to do it is because we dont want to have big Parking Spaces in the nature of natural landscape behind the jews so we prefer to further the cause to drive on to the beach because then we dont have to have these big Parking Spaces in the landscape and we can keep the landscape as it is naturally intended and the 2nd of march is that elderly people handicapped people people with special needs they can get on to the beach as well so thats also an advantage and its perfect for our traction test ok guys we make a speed acceleration challenge now that we have to partially is just settle for the final but we have our other costs and they will fight against 2 routes and we have the audi electric car against the hybrid lexus and the diva boy gets a decent amount of rest and the rid of those groups will find the gaps and the last has got some caution and then we have an ok but what if you dont resolve this driving systems and assistants in the car so. Look for proof switch them off a letter to them like do them in and i would say you can do this too if you. Think its better to the let all the systems and the foreman well lets go got it all the other cars have to do battle only the porsche is already set for the final. This is the lexus r. X. For 58. 00 with full hybrid drive the fully electric out each on the full x. A 90 mile hybrid diesel and another diesel the montserrat live on tape. First up the volvo x c 90 the 1st real s. U. V. From the swedish carmaker our chester nico has just one issue with it. For a few days im driving the weeks in one station its very comfortable car a very nice to drive all the system systems possible then with the event the only thing i wanted to ball with the fabric seats in the car because when i thought up a premium s. U. V. Car thought the mode let us see its but this is a ploy everybody can decide for him or herself. To montserrat it has all the comforts but its not quite cutting edge says our italian tester fabio. What i really like about this car is the exterior and the interior especially this wonderful leather material its this beautiful blue paint job what i dont like about this is that some featureless should be standard in a car of this price but. As a doctor charging station had a display and a virtual corporate. Can the volvo mile hybrid take on the powerful monster running. To go are you ready for that youre just going to. Try to take their garbage pick your. Just to. Turn off. Bradleys standing. Go. To all those traction control gets at the advantage against the montserrat 8. Fabio what was d that but i think turning off the systems wasnt the best idea because a lot so the post was spinning at the start at the beginning and no was in mabel to get off of the mine quickly so. There was my big problem. And so the masa rugby is the 1st to leave the beach in production since 2016 go up on tape isnt high demand accounting for half of the italian Luxury Brands sales. Now its time for the out each trying to show what the v. W. Groups 1st all electric car can do are tester yok and was truly impressed. Im driving for just one a week does already tried and i have to say its a very comfortable a very silent and all the Digital Tools inside i dont want to go very quick the problem is surcharging infrastructure sometimes you have to raid one and. To get it for a bottom thats normal you have to think a little bit in the new but its possible its challenger the lexus also has an electric motor in a b 6 Combustion Engine tester kristoff says power is not the point here i have to confess im a lexus fan from the beginning on all this though these cars are not perfect. But its not good all these Entertainment SystemsNavigation Systems the handling on that is a. Man a hybrid drive is not made for german off the rack on the other side a lexus all of it speaks to the feeling of safety list. These copper texts you work every day every hour on the one example you have that the lower dollar played a much lower than that at about cost that means it will take these are coming out and that its not going to be muddy all water on the. Road that really you know the type of hybrid drive versus any power the result is clear. The audi beats the lexus no argument right. Now normally i should have win because im the but that drive up the talk of the always so huge i had no chance. And so the lexus is the 2nd to leave the arena beaten by pure power. But for all the electro euphoria hybrids like this will still be around for a long time. Now its time for the semi final. Audi vs volvo who will get to face off against the porsche. Once again theres no doubt about the outcome power wins out once more. The audi 664. 00 newton metres of torque is simply impossible to match. The volvo is out but its mild hybrid has a future of its fuel consumption well under 10 liters per 100 kilometers. Modern diesel engines can be cleaner and more efficient as long as they are electrically assisted. And time for the final the big showdown on the beach and fires start on. Can they be out he overcome the 550. 00 horsepower force a turbo. An excellent start gives the cayenne a few metres lead which it holds on to until the finish line. More horsepower more torque and 400. 00 kilos later than the audi makes the difference. That the tron has met its match in the final. The 1st electric s. U. V. From audi is a 1st class touring vehicle but it would be a much better electric car if it didnt weigh 2. 00 tons its battery alone weighs 700. 00 kilos. So the winner is the Porsche Cayenne coupe a turbo but this incredibly good car has a breathtaking price while the other 4. 00 s. U. V. S cost around 100000 euros fully loaded this porsche comes in at a whopping one 180000. 00 euros at least in germany at that price how could it last done by a strong. What if all s. U. V. S were emission free they could run on hydrogen for example. Could places like this be the key to climate neutral mobility for decades scientists at this Research Plant in southwest germany have been seeking to unlock the potential of hydrogen from mercedes benz. Bigio c f cell germanys 1st mass produced Hydrogen Vehicle rev reporter Joachim Eggers went for a ride in it. You helped create this car didnt you. Yes in the development of hiding do any of the nuts or bolts have your name on them. Now i know but the soft. To tell us about the energy flow. In this view you can see the battery is at the back of the fuel cell system at the front if i step on the gas the most of the energy will come from the fuel cell you know. The feel cell generates the energy directly inside the car and runs on hydrogen could this be a viable solution for the global goal of 0 emissions driving. Mercedes research in this area goes back almost 30 years. In 1904 you dont build the need one delivery van the cargo area was taken up by the Hydrogen Fuel tank and generators. This is the drive train of the latest model together with the tanks containing the hydrogen. Christian more is proud hes in charge of developing the revolutionary technology that has so far cost him there more than a 1000000000. 00 euros. The amazing thing is that this car emits water in the form of steam or maybe droplets depending on the temperature plus a little heat. In other words the car is completely emissions free. And thats the point cutting and ultimately eliminating the Carbon Dioxide emissions produced by Combustion Engines of though Nuclear Options aside the energy obviously has to come from somewhere. Electricity from renewable sources could be used to create green Hydrogen Fuel in large quantities with minimal emissions but thats still a dream with a hefty price tag attached 1. 00 reason why dime there has only built around 100 c. F. Cells to date. What would it cost me. 799. 00 euros a month in leasing fees. And thats everything including. Not the answer i was expecting. And what if i wanted to buy that car how much would that cost me. We dont sell this car for various reasons. Youre not selling this car. No not even to you. Also why did you build it. We built it to help us gauge the market for fuel cells. Into a test the infrastructure and to increase awareness of the issue. With so few on the road which is a shame by the way the car has a range of more than 400 kilometers and its served by almost 80 hydrogen filling stations across germany putting the country 2nd only to japan a central figure in setting up that network. The cars take just 3 minutes to fully refuel all the way and then lift up the mine and thats all you have to do thats one of the most money. Gets going the hydrogen flows in their business and now you just push the start. Its the staff the test stores the test poles you can hear is the feeling punk checking how much is still in the tank and whether everythings properly sealed when it gets the all clear from the car and starts to fill it up can you hear that funny squeaking sound thats just the compressor nothing to worry about. But we have to find everythings fine its your bus i thought so were filling up with hydrogen where do you get it from the crucial question because hydrogen only makes sense if we generated from a renewable source and without c o 2 emissions so its a way done i guess was that you just have to unlatch it. Yeah well right and now pull it out. Easy right put it back in its holder and youve completed your 1st hydrogen refueling tanks can hold 5 kilos of hydrogen at 9 euros 50 a kilo enough to take you 400 kilometers. What does it feel like get there well. Have fantastic its so light and so silent to acceleration is instead. The power goes straight to the axles which you notice its a lot of fun to drive. It also smooth a bit like flying. Do you have to be tech savvy to drive this car now thankfully thats also true with the current Market Leader toyota is me right there didnt build this doll explains how the Hydrogen Cars work. Doesnt even have an exhaust its barely visible its a little plastic water pipe used this is where the steam exits and you can see theres a bit of water on it. The car takes an oxygen from the air through the compressor at the front. For oxygen oxygen you know exactly the oxygen into the fuel cell where its combined with h. To fly. Hydrogen. Yes and in the fuel cell the molecules can join. The marriage of hydrogen with oxygen releases electricity. And this charge is passed on. The resulting Energy Powers an electric motor which drives the car. Toyota has sold 10000 memorised since its launch in 2014 the japanese car giant wants to increase Production Capacity and bring the price down considerably. What it cost me the list price is 78600. 00 euros base price all the extras are standard. And guess what government subsidies and buyer incentive bonuses effectively slashed the price of the mirai in japan by almost 50000. 00 euros. And is leading the way when it comes to helping Hydrogen Technology take off there are even plans to put a Hydrogen Powered rover on the moon. Just so happens to mean future and the japanese evidently see hydrogen as the fuel of tomorrow on earth and further afield. Back in Germany Research and development is by comparison still out in the cold but dont forget its not the road you take its getting there that counts and greater political commitment would shortly. What. I am told. Theres a brand new golf beat 845 years his speedo be ready to go into brand this is the new golf in the race and the question is is this going to be the last go for ever because the full electric i do 3 is going to be on market soon and the next question will the idea 3 replace the new growth. A gold is a compact car and a pound of its own class to go through and it was growing from generation to generation it started with we 70 and the new one for me to us and 28 centimeters. Really have a german can tell a story about a focus wagon both as a 1st car or as a student car i once owned a go through music and i thought it was a race car because i imagine the car was going 190 k. P. H. The speedometer was not so accurate it was oscillating from 142198 all the time and i realized the car was not so fast one and also because all it took me on the algebra. A lot of time passed and the post goal in 1974 in 45 years volkswagen sold more than 35000000 units worldwide this is a big history. The latest comes with diesel gasoline hybrid and compressed natural gas engines but no pure and. And on the outside for better or worse it still looks like a draw of the revolution takes place inside because the new growth is totally digital which means there are hardly any switches and everything can be operated by touch or by Voice Control this is contemporary and its working hello folks. What would you like to do i am cold. That problem gets warmer at the front left shortly. The 2nd revolution and the engines the mouth can sail which means engine and drive train decoupled this serves fuel and when it comes back to combustion mode you dont notice that i think its clever and i like that. An entry model golf with a car to excommunication costs 27000. 00 euros but youll have to pay a bit more for a fancy extra and same digital options such as the adaptive lighting system i. Q. Lights so the question remains should folks when i can finally let go of the gulf. When the id 3 will be a state of the art all electric redesign and the girlfriend feels out of step with the zeitgeist well the gulf is a survivor its got a wide array of fuel efficient engines and electric charging is still a problem in most countries the gulf has always been best and its segment since 45 years ago still the question just a new full electric are you 3 going to replace them gold well its going to replace the new gold but there are still a lot of regions where theres not enough charging stations and this is the reason why theres still a need for golf with a Combustion Engine. But for how much longer. Lets look at another survivor and mercedes one plying the streets of one go do book enough in our series about taxi drivers around the world. That have. Them up by google they supply. To get it thats the big kid being in. It thats huge thats a lot like going to be like everything is the way it is. For the long. Summer im going to use all 3. Of the.

Half of the other things you could pay for and when you really. Saw many things come to me possible. To implement got plus i got things i mean. Some people meant some people meant enough to them and.
