as they are peers and rivals with one daring gold to help smart nature, the more likes watching on youtube dw documentary, the this is the new pizelle, a 3008, appealing electric s u v. co pay. and it is by no means the 1st car of this type on

the market. so we have to compare it to its arrival. it's welcome to read the different versions for the 3008. the 1st one that we're testing right now is a $210.00 horsepower. $157.00 kilowatt electric engine with 527 kilometers of range. the same range is through for the all wheel drive version that has $320.00 horse power, $240.00 kilowatts of power. and then of course days the long range version, which has $230.00 horsepower, $170.00 kilowatts, and up to 700 kilometers of range. so if you compare those driving numbers to, for example, a test model, why or be able to use id 5 pro performance. they are all quite similar. you got the

wrong 530 kilometers offer range. you have a prize of their own 50000 euros. the only thing is the test is way more powerful. so it's of course faster they can go up to 217 kilometers an hour. why a p u always kept at 170. what as an hour and the vw at even $160.00, to be fair though, the difference in price is around $4000.00 euros more for the test so that you have to pay for the additional power. the, the general driving impression in the visual a 3008 is quite good. it is very well insulated. you don't have a lot of wind noise in the interior, which gives you a pleasant ride comfort. if you compare that to test it is a little better i would say, but on the same level about as being able to use id 5 the,

the suspension is nothing special. it does exactly what you would expect from an s u b. it is around the soft, so you have the car rolling a little bit into curves, but nothing too wild, so it's absolutely ok the the 3008 is the 1st car to be based on the new s t l, a medium platform from this the largest group, so 70 does the platform provide up to 700 kind of messes and pure electric range due to a scalable architecture. it can also be used for different body types and sizes of call with a length of 4.5 full matches and a width of one in point 89 meters. the $3000.00 dates not seen at the lower end of

the own. electric s u, v. q pays in this class. the interior of the patrol, a 3008 looks are really good, high quality, nice materials. and i always like the steering wheel off off of your model since it's simply so small, nicely to offer, it gives you a good feeling. the best part in the middle is not exactly what i would prefer, but it's still okay. i've seen worse. what i don't like is that high gloss black here. it's not touch operated. that's good. so you can't use them on the accidents because you have to actually press them. but you have quite a lot of high gloss black here in the center console in the middle. but then you have that beautiful, 21 inch wide screen display which has all the information that you need to offer. busy so in for payment system, an instrument costa in $1.00 big screen that is not standard for the entry level

version. the one it is to attend introduce base by they also connected with some sort of high goes back. so it looks similar the thing i also really like it is that this but right here where you can place shortcuts. so you simply keep that pressed, then it will highlight and then you can choose on the screen here in the center. what ever function you would like to place it right down there that you can see right here we have illumination, you can choose from a few colors. we'll show you a picture of that during the night. they can see it better. i think it looks really good, but it can be a little bit distracting because you have reflections of that in the window. it's not that bright, so it's ok. but if you see it, then for a few minutes you can see it. the $3008.00 can be challenged with speeds of up to

a $160.00 kilowatts of dc. challenge. u haul filed with false charging results and upwards of 250 kilometers of range. the thing that is not too good with the 3008 is the visibility to the rear. that is not only a pure jo problem, it is fall a cd co pays simply by the way they are built at the rear. the the what is quite nice with the e. 3008 is that it has pedals behind the steering wheel where you can choose the level of freight corporation, the different levels of possible. and with the highest level you can basically use it for one pedal drive because the breaking is quite strong. the only thing is, if you actually want to stop completely, then you have to apply the brakes at the end because the car will not stop on its own. on like for example baubles, x 30, all post to all the costs that have that function. i don't know why not all manufacturers do this because it is basically real one pedal drive. but

okay, now also enough manufacturers that don't have it where you need to apply the brakes at the end. the in markets that do have a few months a year that are either cold, the heat pump in the car comes as standard. and that is a very good thing because you will save quite that all up energy. if you compare that in the french market, for example, you have a water heater stand that they will use up to $7.00 kilowatts of energy to heat up the water prices for the $3000.00 dates begin at just over 48000 to your eyes to the entry level model, the time up my a 3008 experience. it is a very solid car. that, of course,

has its price. but if you compare it to all those in that segment, is me the jeep know, very expensive. so it fits into that segment quite well in the end, it's always a choice. what you like in terms of these line, be it on the interior on the exterior, and i have to say the equally 1008 looks way better then. for example, the 95 for a test off on the sides, the 3000 to h is quite the nica inside and out on the platform has the flexibility in terms of body style which makes the downside, like korea visibility and compromise. please face the mind.

vw go one of the most successful cause in the world. extraordinary ordinary. what's so special about it? nothing. there is nothing exceptional. everything fits and i conic gym and call this remains true to itself. 50 is spectacularly spectacular. i'm going in a golf and it's mary. as generations was always recognizable as a gulf, i can borrow money. well, you knew what you had the the ghost, the most successful german car hold time appeals to young and older. like it's tom pulled in 35000000 by as well as wides across the schools that she'll come see the the senior doctor drew up to the clinic in

a gulf. the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and then deliberate, his letters and another golf. no matter your social class or your job, it's just a normal car. i'm honest, i went to the gulf is come cut the whole world from brazil to south africa in many places. it's become part of the national culture and survived coalition. a people getting up, but they do doesn't accessible to a lot of the old products, but then after that then we got our free domain. it was accessible to a new one. volkswagen means a lot to virginia and culture and especially for the goal models that we have here and what's next to the gulf. best seated divisive debate about that on the sixty's . but these efforts, because the challenge now is to continue the success story and also the you don't have to revolutionize everything if you think what's there isn't that bad. the,

the goal is, is in a way, a symbol of the tragedy activity happening in the motive industry. the people's beloved receiving the size of using them go yeah they, they, they did a good job. they those that are boosting and kind of design. and this revolutionary style design that comes from it to me with southern european flag, to a get to, to jot or broke, or conventions in the early 19 seventy's to create a sensible come. com the to go there still it's form architecture and technical and functional framework are like the harmonies of a hit song called the counselor there. well, match notes that create a harmony when you put them together. you see a man,

you're not moving on to joe who was vitally designed, there was a century for creating unique and legendary vehicles for a wide variety of combat because was commissioned by volkswagen to develop a success to to the b team made it radically different from the perennial best seller and the left instead of rounds the front instead of re a wheel drive's was a cold instead of at the gulf was smaller than the beat me outside. much room yet on the inside stood up. the 2nd feature of the golf. i'll show you here a good email. it's sloping a pillar and the slope in good shape. while the belt line is lower, delta you boss. so they are the facets of these notices, like those used to compose music. most of the brand may surprise those who look

at it with a harmony as best not perceived with the conscious mind. and so the people just feel that and people immediately felt the benefits of the call vw to launch the gulf gti for drive, it seems like 240. and then the gulf is consistently being the best selling caught in germany, frequently in europe. and in some years, even worldwide takes over. that's a big well yes, i believe that the gulf actually managed to bend the site guide of the industry and to sheet metal nice to approve and technology that was very solve. i'd say that you couldn't rely on you see it so lead to box the message for less than 20 the gulf is now and it's a generation call that change the industry and even established a new vehicle category. the golf club. as it's called the gulf,

it's really changed in 50 is the, it's not 60 citizens. they have actually managed to change the golf very gradually, slowly and then evolution every way. so that's what a new generation is. very reminiscent. it's of the old one, the noise you cannot see on the see on the customers have now been scared off by a completely new design or the installation noise design testing is that's why there is a very strong customer loyalty to this car because you knew what you had, most of us might have to the best of, of us accost development can be found in the world's largest private goals collection in the austrian town of chicago. use if use has brought together a $114.00 gulf. ranging from the most unusual wood sliding doors to the

fastest cubes. gti models, the it's the go, fans life slack, tech colors, days the gulf because it was the 1st vehicle where everything really was just right . i used to drive all brands, almost all brands. when i was young, the 1st time the golf really was the car you sat in and everything was just right. the perfect car as if it had been built for me. just waiting for me to keep old one, the other many go funds phones clubs to cultivate the passion. i'm the own as if the 1st model series from the 1970s gather at the meetings of one such great cold, original goals. one, but people from all walks of life come together here. there's him on the go. as a senior doctor drove to the clinic in a gulf, the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and delivered his letters and another girl now and the secretary and the factory drove

a golf and the boss. his wife may have also had a golf as a private car. it's a class this car under stated reliable, practical, n s n said offers everything you still need to get from a to be today to the one on the right. even some golf, one known as 2 volt that causing the former east germany. in 1978. volkswagen delivered 10000 goals that in exchange for seat metal teaching, oil and tires. it wasn't easy for people to to get the hands on the gulf sign hot. martinez got lucky because he'd registered with the old server cheese for an east german call. long before and so he was able to get to west gym and come that he could work on. and he's got the numbers for the interview at the time. i worked for intern for the i guess, a test engineer, livings, but i wasn't in conrad. and so i approached it up domestically, i thought that i knew you have to get your hands on this car. so of course i gave up the lot, i had registered for 12 years earlier in order to get it and

a lot of goals. so all the rage, no, certainly in east germany, but so in coming this to you could smell the foundations to the gulf. enthusiasm in the balkans were laid back in the 19 seventy's and remain in place today by then. volkswagen produced the 1st gulf models made in. sorry, eva today the both in the in capital as possible. the joint venture is like a circle closer to the dream of every average. yugoslavian was to own a gulf. of course you had to wait for a gulf if you had the money for it to him. oh no, that's not on the weight was up to 6 months. i was able to save some money so that i could make my dream come true. it was a big deal for me. as a young man, i'm cold. my generation will get what i'm talking about is on such as on september

seconds, production facilities with knowledge he destroyed and nipples and in full between 1992 and 95 goals. production was discontinued, but people's infuse, yes and for the german call has the volume the anymore just caught his eye. most emotion. peaceful. and i, the whole this home emotions about that see years for this, about survival. and often that's was the tendency for the people to feel themselves. again, like the normal people, again that some like in south africa to the gulf has survived a change in political systems and is now part of the country's culture. like a witness to history, it joined the long journey of the black population from the oppression of a pol, tied to the present day. the leading up of the,

the doors in accessible to a lot of the bill pennies. maybe to is still expensive. those ones who wasn't comprised, but then after then we got the freedom. i think i think it became accessible to. yeah. to almost everyone very special golf model was even built in south africa because the goals to which replace the one in 1994 was too complex and expensive for south africa. the gulf one simply continued to be built that in a slightly modified form under the name city gulf. this is that my 2007 see to go see it was a based motors and that's how it looks from insight. i can go on the site and show you the old site as well. from the m k. one too busy to go. this is how you differentiate them. this lane. yeah. so the, that's how you differentiate those. c,

a m k one doesn't have the deadline, but busy 2 gloves have been the wind production of the city gulf was finally discontinued in 2009. the whole country bid farewell to the favorite. com with emotional outgoing the i think you don't remember what day you saw the belfry paid will never die because there's people who look of them in. you live for a. i'm gonna save one for my son. he's built 2 years old. yeah. so you'll find it maybe lane is 18 or printing london using testbed dealers. whatever is owned by they use loading tests, they about 2 bits for myself. the, the brazilians go to specially built muscles. the vw go, one of the country's most popular calls between 19802022. although it had the audi

80 and vw passat dna, it came with body styles reminiscent of the polo and gulf wagon means a lot to brazilian culture, especially for like the goal models that we have here. the created goal to be a cheaper car for families from our simpler people, which is the base off of birds, you know, and even in from people take that hats off to the gulf. a special exhibition at the wrench and the bill classic co show in paris commemorates the gulf history. probably the only phone call that has ever managed to seriously compete with the french like whole favorites. which is a car from abroad that left its mark on the french. you was suddenly driving a car that was incredibly young situ, onto a cd, for example. it was a comfortable french car, but none of our cars had that dynamism. some. wow, so i mean,

if i do not need you to the, the gulf really is more than just to come go stands for a way of life. who am i the profession of faith? the do you live with it? i didn't if i with it. so in a way, the expressing generation golf makes sense of to 50 low me is the days of the go flip tonight. they would numbers as volkswagen proposed for new age of mobility. electro. my benefits with the development of the id model series, but doesn't count the gulf out just yet. i just wanted to see god that has now been a change in product strategy. volkswagen. the id 3, which i positioned in the same vehicle. klaus as the gulf was unable to build on the goals success because i'm just, i'm

a now volkswagen. he's going the other way and taking these well known performance characteristics of the gulf and transforming them into electric mobility from yet the in india electron mobility. it, once the i know is to build on it psychotic history and continue the success story with an electric car onto the 1st. cuz she's the ultimate, i'm elect will all to live at this time. and this is what it could look like. the goals, 9 was electric drive, which will be launched, the earliest in 2026. the gold pieces in a way assembled on the tragedy actually happening in the motive industry. we are changing over to new engines, namely the electric engines that complaints have different parameters and stay in the car, maintains exactly the same shape as before. so when vito became goals, changing the engine, the change also the shape. now 50 is of to the 1st goals. i believe we have to

understand that the way we use cause it's a scholarly change. and so it's quite of a tragedy that's with them just as we keep the goals forever the we by the gods because of the meaning of it. and in a new words, which is the one we are approaching, this should be new meanings. could it be times that you'll get to job to to radically redesign vw use best selling model? doesn't b, w need a little revolution? every 50 is likely the italian no. any works but chinese comp make has ended his collaboration with volkswagen in 2015 in design. it's not democratic. you understand how people do you. i didn't have the freedom to propose the things i wanted to do when i agreed to join that large corporate group . the result i'm, they go when they put up they don't have any courage because they're the men in

charge and they don't want to put their positions of power at risk or thrown. they don't take risks, they do things more or less the same as ever, in order to avoid risks, because they don't have any vision up, but you stop either. their vision is what led georgette to job to, to create, to milestones. in order to motif design you always have limits and built a career out of my absolute freedom. because when i made my 1st cars, i had incredible freedom to do the best time for the delay, dw, go a symbol of freedom and create cubic feet in color design. because everyone which people holes and young all over the world have embrace on the call that just become the flagship of the gym and automotive industry.
