The neo brand is still pretty much on known in germany. But the chinese e. B juggernaut is planning. Its german launched by the end of 2022. Neil is coming to germany today. My 1st test drive in germany with the neo car. If you want to know more about the cost, the brand, the plans for the future stick around and with that, welcome to read. The e s 8 is neos biggest s u v. And while its not sold in germany, you might still spot it on the streets as its available in norway, a person in europe for the brand. The cool thing about neo carls, that is a parent once you get inside, is that a Little Finger looking at you, its name is no me. Its basically a Voice Recognition system, but its a way uter then it is another cause you will have a little fear. Lead is looking at you. Sometimes it will wink. And from time to time when its bored, it will do funny pain. While norway gets the yes, hate the smaller e s 7 s u b and the 87 and 85 sedan for the time being, it seems like its just the sedans and the e. S. 7. That will make it on to the german market. With design signed up for neo caused by the way east in munich, germany. We were there and had a quick chat with the chief designer. By the way, we can show you the sensor from the outside since its pretty secret. So youve got to believe its in munich. I mean we, we starting a new brand from scratch, right . So we have a lot of creative freedom. And its like starting with a clean sheet of paper, but at the end of the day we want to create and design beautiful cars for our users. So we really keep their, you know, experiences in mind in terms of how they want to feel when they see a neo. So we really want to create a perfect car in that its beautifully designed, intuitive, easy to use. And really embodies all the attributes of, from what our users want. Of course, the neal brand is a grand success. And its home country, china, the annual neo de contracts, thousands of owners and bands from across the country. Thats in part because neo has focused on building a Community Among its customers. Neil fan club, the cross china meet regularly go on trips and even organized charity events. And they stay in touch with the company for james to directly address any questions the owners might have neo doesnt view itself as an ordinary car maker. Thats plane to see what their latest venture leo houses, potential and current neo owners can meet, get advice on vehicles or simply grab a cup of coffee. There are more than 65. 00 leo houses in china already. And one in the norwegian capital oslo. We started sort of, to indulge in an exercise, trying to see if we could find what was really essential. We came up with this feeling that it was all about engagement and community. Its about a closeness and relationship to nature as well. Its about a celebration off local tastes and flavors with in germany. Now were, were good about to open neo houses. And these really embody also neos core Design Principles as well. So we really want a holistic experience for our users, so that the cars and every touch point for the users really feel like one red thread running between them. So the, for instance, the new houses, the way the furniture is the way youre greeted the experience is total experience. Really is something thats been driven by design. Ah, the design philosophy around neo was really based on our Company Brand values, which are honesty, care, vision, and action. And from that we actually developed our design dna, which is pure human progressive and sophisticated. E s h is roughly the size of a, b, m, w, x 5 or i x. But it aims to attract premium customers at an affordable price. The logo itself represents our brand philosophy of vision, the upper part being the sky, and the lower part being action sort of the road to that. So vision and action prices for yes, 8, start at around 50. 7000. 800 euros making it a good deal. Cheaper than the b m, w i x, which costs over 77000. 00. Thanks to its 400 kilowatt motor. The s 8 has plenty of power. Range varies between 375 and 500 kilometers. Depending on what size battery you opt for. Right now neil is struggling a little bit because all the audi is not really satisfied with the naming of this called the e s 8 because they say its too close to their ass aid. So the sporty is version of their flagship model. But to be honest, its like a different car. And also this car is in a completely different segment than also completely different type of car than the, as a by audio. And what i think is even more important, a name consisting of a ladder, and a number is not really something that you would call creative naming, so he can steal like 2 digits. I dont really know if you steve a name like i dont know to yodas, i go a bomb thing, then its different, but numbers letters. I dont see any problem. There are naming strategy is based on 3 digits and letters. So the 1st one, e, this represents for us experience and emotion because thats what our brand is built on. The 2nd letter represents the card type, so in this case s is for s u v. And the number designates the the hierarchy of the vehicle. In this case 8 being the biggest se the we have. So e s 8 of course, what sets the neo brand a part is it swap a will battery system. At a battery swap station, the customer can exchange an empty battery for a fully charged one. In a matter of minutes. In the future it will be possible to off for a bigger or smaller battery, depending on availability. With the battery as a service option, the battery remains the property of neo and is rented on a monthly basis. That simplifies swapping. And insurers, you always get the best possible battery if you want. You can also simply buy your battery. The 1st swamp station outside china was recently opened in oslo. Over the next few years, neil plans to build 1000. 00 more of the swap stations in europe. Of course, its also possible to charge the vehicles normally at a wal box or public charging station. Driving in the o if cool, i mean the idea i really like it. And the only problem right now is we dont have to wait, wait until neil comes on to the german markets. Wait until there are enough swap stations and wait until the hour, the neo houses. But im pretty sure once all of this is done, neil is going to have a Great Success here. Neo hasnt yet officially announced when exactly its models will hit the german market. But the 1st will definitely be the e t 7 sedan in 2022. Equipped with 2 electric motors handle pack 480 kilowatts of power. Different battery sizes will provide ranges of 500 to a 1000 kilometers, making the car arrival to the tesla model less. And portia ticonda, while we dont yet know the german prices in china, the 87. 00 cost the equivalent of 48000. 00 euros, plus 150. 00 euros a month for seeing the battery. Ah walter own and 1st passengers of the day on his 2 youngest children, he is a bike taxi driver in ginger, some 90 kilometers east of uganda as capital kampala. A few months ago, he traded in his old bike taxi for an afro crazy any by develop for the african market. And hes been attracting a lot of attention. You can see them was in i let me good a bit in the go design because if youre using follow another using my whole seat as well. The customer i 3 cru. See, is the brainchild of york and passion, a former teacher from northern germany. More than 10 years ago, as he was travelling across africa, he began thinking about how transportation on the continent could become more sustainable. Many in africa ride motor bikes, which are expensive and polluting tickets. Vincent fuselage, unlike africa, has lots of Solar Energy Units and huge mobility up to europe has lots of e bikes thats left. So why not combine a bikes with africas solar energy to make a cargo bike and far that, that could really help solve mobility problems on the continent . I do them for movie typical dream of continent. To help turn his idea into reality. Youre going teamed up with an e pike specialist from germany. Together they designed the 1st prototype and realized the bikes would need to be adapted to the needs of african customers, including the local Road Conditions. To stand, ive shown that was a pretty big challenge when it came to designing the bike. Like montague, the Road Conditions arent necessarily like what a bike riders are used to here, but would either splice and some of the buy components that the industry tends to rely on might be available in general. Its like in they mostly call from come muslims optics, more spokes in the wheels and a reinforced frame, styled in the look of a more expensive motorbike. The affray crazy was designed to be robust and appeal to its clientele, and its 600. 00 euros. Its quite a bit more affordable than most di bikes. The project also includes a micro Credit System to help People Finance the purchase. Passions partner in berlin, belongs to shiro cycles, one of the Worlds Largest bicycle manufacturers. The Indian Company can draw on huge economies of scale to produce the affray cruces at a Competitive Price for a hero. Its an idea that makes sense and gets them a new foothold in the huge african market. The 1st 100 after he cruces went into operation in uganda in 2022 as e by taxis e bike ambulances and water delivery bikes at fabio. The n g o based and ginger thats coordinating the app recruiting project. The 1st batch of e bikes already attracted a lot of interest. Fuel costs have also risen sharply in uganda as all over the world, which has helped to make e mobility more appealing. This comes as i know, tentative as that trends what a mobility tentative that to people can use instead of motorized transport lay cars like motorcycle is the fact that it is functional. It is able to carry 100 kilograms of of cargo. So it is function, it is very fast. It is of course 5, fabio runs Small Service points to handle maintenance, and to swap out the solar powered batteries. Mechanic, Joshua Ma Gaia joined the project early on, and now has a permanent position. He sees a Bright Future in the technology. I run stuffed up to auction and they want to skew my fellow friends and young people dont dare. I wanted to get them on how to repay up bags. And howd you bet you base walter own and comes here to swap his batteries when business is brisk, he is here twice a day on days when he cant make it, hes out of luck. So ordered redundancy. One thing maybe, if the battery is not there so you can of red losing light with no light. So you have to still viewing the fabio team are in regular contact with technical designers, and berlin showed the bicycle lights get a separate battery. Does the frame need any updates . The 2 teens are working on refining the next generation of africa. Cruces yoga. Passion is hoping for more support from another angio called atmosphere. Its business model. Air travelers make a voluntary donation based on their emissions. Those contributions then help fund green projects around the world. A free cruise is hoping to become one of them. So now the analysts are studying how some of the bikes are being used to best living. There are gps modules that allow us to see how many kilometers the bike travel on and carry out surveys to see how people use the bike tanks. Hodges as part of what chroma transportation did it replace units . Would they have gone by motorbike, by car, or on foot . What a lot of using that data we can determine how much c o 2 emissions were actually savers to try to apply on found on this. Even though that process takes time. The next 640 every crews e bikes are in production. In india, theyll be headed to togo, panini, or kena, faso, tanzania, and other countries. Its hope to eventually produce some components in uganda. Ah, juerg and passion is happy that his affray crazy project is taking off. And for walter own and, and his family, the bikes have made a huge improvement to their day to day lives and future prospects. If you want more rev, check out our youtube channel.

Ill just some of the exciting content waiting for you. Subscribe to us at youtube slash d w. Read. And youll always be up to speed thinking about the like the mobility. The 1st thing which comes into peoples mind is range. Anxiety. Im telling you dont be worried to day rep is going to tell you how to charge your e v. Absolutely. Anyone. Class blacks and cables that i use for a very free e, v x p. As in germany lets start with what you can do at home. So this is a stand at home plaque. If you are like me at your brothers place and your cause empty, then you can chart an enormous own socket while it buries in different parts of the world in germany, a stan at home so could usually support up to 3. 7. Keeta was 230 voice and 16 m power. But getting a put charge from a home socket requires some amount of patients where we are charging right now with this, you know what . That means. It takes certain hours to charge from 60 to a 100 percent. And that causes a long time. And its not exactly very free. So i put it in in a 10 impair home focus. But as you can see, its delivering certain impair. That is actually dangerous because it could cause the lion or wyatt, but in some costs, you have the option to change the m p s, which will help you to save your wire. So they are always 2 sides to the story. If youre not confident about the wiring, then of course just use it for emergency and just charge as much as necessary to come to the next. A y box is a charge out what you would install at home. So i personally dont have a web ex, but thats the reason why we came to this message dealership to show you what awoke why boxes, usually the never power between 3. 7 and 22 kilowatts and you need a certified electrician to install one, which is often quite expensive, but it can potentially combine, convince was comparatively got charge, which is a big place for this. No say this why box here is charging mice has low with 11 people, which means its going to take approximately one hour 25 minutes to go from 60 percent to the 80 percent charging limit ive set which isnt too bad. They are also remote charging options in industrial areas. This is an industrial block. There are 2 types of these red flags across europe. At 16 m power plants that can deliver up to 11 kilowatts and as 30 to end up like that can deliver up to 22 q. So actually that is what you need when you on a remote area where you have no other opportunity to charge. But what about when you are re and truly in the middle of nowhere . These are camping blacks, which are to see blacks. Youd use it campsite in europe. Here they are usually a standardized blue color. Theres a smaller, 16 m power plaque and the bigger 32. 00 impact. The advantage of these blacks is that they didnt live up to 3. 7 kilowatts of energy, very consistent so that i have tried on my own and it works. So you can rely on the electricity pushed into your car. This is a cable. What you get from a manufactor when you buy an even. So that is actually a type 2 cable in how many type 2 cables, usually transfer rate up to 43 kilowatts. But it depends on what your specific, if you can take and what the public charges that you have plotted into can deliver. For example, charging my tesla, 77 kilowatt hour battery from 0 to 100. 00 at an 11 kilowatt charges takes 7 hours. If you live in a city and dont have your own charging set up at home, chances are that this is a game that you are likely to rely on the most. So that is actually the whole set up. Im traveling with to avoid range anxiety. And just to calm you down, i have all of these kaylas because im constantly on the go driving all across europe and any be. Chances are that if youd just drive from home to work and back, you wont need to rely on anything other than public charges. Some of which have own claxon, kayla. These are the ones i encounter and jenny, this is an ac type, 2 cable at the public charger, which is a rare fight. But if you managed to lose your own type to cable, you could use the supply power rate of up to 43 q us this is actually more plaque, which was developed in japan back in 2010. The arent very common in europe, but a still used to touch sammys. They support rep at the c charging and in germany they usually go up to 150. 00 killer. And this is a c, c s a combined charging pluck, which has 2 d. C. Contact at the bottom, allowing for fast charging. Its a most common rep, a charging block across germany, allowing charging speeds up to 350. 00 killer was, although occasionally even higher. Of course, since i drive the tesla ought to have the advantage of his less supercharger network, which also uses the c. C. S. Blacken your. But did you know constantly past charging your car isnt good for the better. But more about that in our next video, where i will tell you how to treat your e v battery right. I will no one i do think with the quoted make the job with coaches to drive yourself in to play with it or not with my initial its not you dont get when i got it. I buy so many. Okay. Job. No job.
