We demonstrate a Q-switched Erbium-doped fibre laser (EDFL) utilizing cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanocubes film based saturable absorber (SA) as a passive Q-switcher. Co3O4 nanocubes are embedded into a polyethylene oxide film to produce a high nonlinear optical response, which is useful for SA application. It has saturation intensity and modulation depth of 3 MW/cm2 and 0.35%, respectively. The proposed laser cavity successfully generates a stable pulse train where the pulse repetition rate is tunable from 29.8 to 70.92 kHz and the pulse-width reduces from 10.9 to 5.02 μs as the 980 nm pump power increases. This result indicates that the Co3O4 is excellent for constructing an SA that can be used in producing a passively Q-switched fibre laser operating at a low pump intensity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of Co3O4 film based fibre laser.


Watson Batty Architects have designed the new South Shields Delivery Office which replaces the current city centre site that will be demolished to make way for a new transport interchange as part of South Shields councils 365 regeneration plan.
66 postal routes will be relocated to the new Delivery Office as part of the project. The Delivery Office sorts mail into the individual routes the post workers deliver via each day.
Located in an area of the town centre where extensive regeneration is due to take place, the previous South Shields Delivery Office site was not fit for purpose. Including the latest 'Customer and You' standards, this new Delivery Office will provide enhanced facilities for both Customers and staff.
To ensure the councils 365 regeneration plan could commence without delay, the project was built to a strict timeframe to achieve the programme required by the council. Watson Batty Architects worked with the contractor to ensure the programme was maintained, key planning conditions were discharged and to consider alternative methods of construction.
The site layout is designed so as to consider the high levels of health and safety required by Royal Mail. Customers and staff are clearly separated and the public approach to the mail collection point improved. The project has a BREEAM rating of 'Very Good' with photovoltaics used on the roof and a jetwash system installed that reclaims 99% of the water used.


• 8 judicial, 6 practitioner (ideally Queen's Counsel) and at least 4 client assessors.
Although the selection of cases and the nature of your approach to assessors raise tactical issues, it is the selection of best examples that is the greatest challenge for most silk applicants.
This difficulty arises for a number of reasons. Firstly, a case of substance may not necessarily provide an example of excellence relevant to the competencies. A lesser case may provide a much stronger example cross-examination (oral advocacy) than one of your 12 cases.
Secondly, lawyers tend to remember the facts of the case and the parties involved more than they can recall specific issues / events that arose during the case. Once you have dealt with a case it effectively moves from your short-term memory to long-term memory.
It is, however, the third reason that presents the greatest obstacle to recollection. At the heart of all competency based processes is the requirement that when selecting examples the focus is on the action element within the example.
1. The situation i.e. facts of the specific challenge you were facing e.g. you had to develop an argument where there was no domestic authority on point.
2. Your action or process to deal with the challenge e.g. the specific research you undertook and the argument you developed.
3. The outcome i.e. your argument succeeded or failed rather than the outcome of the case.
Firstly, to some extent the way you deal with a challenging situation is something you may not need to reflect on greatly. If researching a specific legal issue, you will know where to look and you will have developed a research methodology over the years. Similarly, even if you are cross-examining an expert witness that you haven't encountered before, over the years you will have developed pattern recognition, cross-examination techniques and a feel for the evidence. It is for this reason that many clients will say to us there is nothing remarkable about any of the examples they can recall.
Secondly, after you have dealt with a case, although you may discuss the facts of the case or the behaviour or character of some of the parties (inc lawyers and judges) in the case, you will rarely spend time explaining the specific actions that you took to deal with a challenge. If you are the sort of lawyer who enjoyed talking about your brilliant cross-examination or clever legal submission, you will probably have few friends.
This means the silk application process is often the first time an applicant is having to try and recall a specific situation and explain in detail how they dealt with it. On this point it's important to bear in mind that it is not sufficient to simply say that you cross-examined the witness and obtained the concession that you were seeking. You will need to bring to life your cross-examination for the reader.
• Give yourself sufficient time. It is not simply the drafting that takes time. You need to time to reflect on you cases and let your subconscious mind trawl through your memory banks while you are doing something else.
• Carefully consider the QCA's competency framework. This is an excellent document that contains examples of the way an applicant might demonstrate excellence in the competencies. Although the examples are by no means exhaustive, this document is an extremely useful starting point. Applicants should also consider the lesser known QCA document 'Panel Approach to Competencies'.
• Review your pleadings, notes and any available transcripts. Recent research has demonstrated that 80% of our memories are inaccurate to some degree and reviewing these documents often triggers examples of excellence long forgotten.

Most guys who have struggled with their weight have experienced that "ah-ha!" moment—that split second in time when something clicks. Your health is deteriorating and you know you need to do something about it. Josh Ingraham, never thought he'd have that moment.
But in just one year, Ingraham found himself in an unrecognizable place. His family grew by one as he and his wife welcomed a baby girl. He took on a new job as the executive chef for the Cleveland Indians—a dream gig for a former college baseball player, especially when the Indians found themselves in the World Series that year. Between the demanding hours of his job and caring for a baby at home, his fitness routine took a backseat.
He could feel the pounds creeping on. But then, he received an email inviting him to take part in a 90-day fitness challenge. The workouts and nutritional advice were included, and a cash prize was up for grabs. Ingraham felt he could easily win with his athletic background, so he snapped his "before" picture, which you can see on the left in the composite above. Tipping the scale at 100 kgs, he had a lot more work ahead of him than he originally considered.
Making time for exercise with his hectic schedule was complicated—but that excuse was put to rest and he started setting his alarm for 5 a.m. every day. Ingraham knew if he slept in, he just wouldn't get a workout in, and one skipped workout could easily snowball into a week without movement.
For 90 days, he went hard, following the program religiously. He focused on strength training coupled with 3-mile runs five times a week. After three months, Ingraham 5 kilos, but didn't win the challenge. He was both shocked and frustrated when he saw the guy who had won, confused as to why he personally hadn't had better results. So he signed up for another 90-day challenge, this time determined to figure out what he did wrong.
Now, Ingraham's "dad bod" is a thing of the past—and he believes anyone can carve rock hard abs if they dedicate themselves to the following lifestyle changes.
In addition to his rest days, he traded his long runs for bouts of high intensity interval training (HIIT). Every morning, Ingraham would start off with exercises in his garage, ranging from barbell and dumbbell lifts to bodyweight exercises like dips and pullups. Instead of performing a certain number of reps and sets, he worked to failure for each exercise, until he could only do three to five reps of a single move. "I don't count until it starts hurting," he explains.
While he had settled into a new gym routine, his diet wasn't an immediate priority, so Ingraham started paying more attention to what was on his plate. "I realized I wasn't eating simple enough. I cut out processed starches and simple carbohydrates. I cut out dairy," he says.
While it's tough, "it's empty calories. You might sacrifice a social event or two, but if a big change is what you want, you have to commit 100 percent," he explains.
After that, the small diet changes kept coming. "I realized I could just have a taste of something instead of having an entire portion," he says.
Science backs him up: In one study, U.K. researchers analyzed survey data from more than 11,000 men and women and found that people who downed more than five home-cooked meals per week were 28 percent less likely to have be overweight and 24 percent less likely to have excess body fat than people who ate less than three home-cooked meals per week.
Ingraham knew he was onto something when he started seeing abs that he never knew existed and feeling better than he ever had in his life.
It's been more than 200 days since Ingraham started exercising again. Now he weighs in at 87kgs, and he doesn't plan on stopping anytime soon. "In a way, I still feel like I have more work to do, so I don't want to let up now," he says.


Having a rating hanging over your head is like driving handcuffed. Us drivers, if we fall below a 4.6 rating we can be deactivated and removed from the system. So basically you lose your job, and you can't drive anymore. Some of these guys through Uber have purchased their own vehicles through special financing. Now, if they purchased a vehicle and they've driven for 2 years, and that vehicle starts to get some mileage on it and it's depreciating, who's to say Uber won't be able to remove their ability to have more customers?
The way [these companies] link you with passengers, you're completely at the mercy of them. They have absolute control—absolute control.
You can be out on the street in an instant. On a moment's notice. Not to mention their auto lenders, they've been investigated by Congress for subprime loans—it's ridiculous, the interest rates. They offer people an opportunity, and then they just cut the rates in that city. They're starving people out.


According to a 2015 report by Prevent Blindness of America, over 31,000 sports-related eye injuries requiring costly emergency room care occur annually. The actual number is probably much higher if injuries treated in private physician offices were included. The report shows that the top sports-related eye injuries by sport are Basketball, Water and Pool Activities, Guns and Baseball/Softball.
As sports participation continues to grow and new "extreme sports" gain in popularity, the number of athletes who suffer eye injuries has the potential to grow considerably. School-aged competitors are particularly prone to eye injuries since their athletic skills (hand-eye coordination, balance, reaction time and speed) are still developing. However, under most circumstances, at least 90% of sports-related eye injuries are preventable with the proper use of protective sports eyewear.
The attached Sports-related eye injuries stat sheet is based on statistics provided in the 2014 calendar year by Prevent Blindness.

The New GCC: Divided and fallen
In recent months, the Arabian Peninsula has witnessed a significant breakdown in already-strained Gulf Cooperation Council relations. Despite Qatari envoys meeting with GCC counterparts for the first time since the blockade began in June, it now looks as if the crisis will continue for the foreseeable future with the Council unable to effectively mediate. The war in Yemen also continues to lack signs of meaningful progress, with the UAE and Saudi Arabia signalling the creation of a new alliance external to the once close-knit regional bloc, potentially due to frustrations surrounding the GCC's posture on the campaign.
For an in-depth, bespoke briefing on this or any other geopolitical topic, consider Encylopedia Geopolitica's intelligence consulting services.
In recent days several major developments have taken place across the Arabian Peninsula, where the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) summit has been convened between the Council's six member states in Kuwait City, and promptly closed. In the run up to the Summit, questions emerged as to whether the meetings would even go ahead as some members, notably Bahrain, increased their anti-Qatari rhetoric and threatened to boycott the summit should Doha continue its controversial foreign policy course. On December 5th, the summit closed a day early amid turbulence after a likely fruitless closed session between the delegates.
Kuwait has publicly insisted that it will continue to mediate the ongoing Qatar-Saudi split that has paralysed the GCC, however at this stage the crisis appears to be more entrenched than ever. Despite genuienly laudable efforts by the Kuwaiti administration, the lack of the region's historical deal-broker, Sultan Qaboos of Oman, has left the Council facing its most severe internal conflict with only inexperienced mediators available. This crisis, coupled with wider regional instability in the face of a resurgent Iran and a stalled war in Yemen, is threatening the viability of the once-successful GCC as Saudi Arabia pushes member states to further alienate Qatar.
Ongoing uncertainty over the future of the GCC is likely to persist, and regional tensions are expected to remain elevated for the foreseeable future. Where previously the bloc had pushed for extensively integrated customs, currency and central banking unions, it now represents polarised foreign policy strategies and general internal division. In a move that may signal the beginning of the end for the bloc, United Arab Emirates announced on December 5th the creation of a new military and trade alliance with Saudi Arabia, separate from the GCC. While Riyadh has yet to confirm this announcement, it is a likely indicator of Abu Dhabi's declining faith in the GCC and a possible attempt to start fresh, without often troublesome and unaligned Qatari involvement.
Future GCC meetings may now be little more than symbolic in nature, as divisions between member states deepen further and prevent meaningful reform.
The UAE's announcement came on the morning of the summit's commencement, where Qatari envoys met with their Saudi-coalition opposite numbers for the first time since the air, land and sea blockade of Qatar began in June. The GCC has experienced major turmoil following the blockade imposed by Bahrain, the UAE, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Driven by a necessity to secure other import sources, Qatar has turned to Turkey and Iran in a move which many fear has pushed the tiny peninsula nation into the Iranian geopolitical orbit rivaling Riyadh in a quest for dominance of the Gulf region.
The new Saudi-UAE alliance is likely also linked to the war effort in Yemen, as the coalition states seek to advance their strategic goals without GCC restrictions or input. Tensions in the campaign theatre are elevated following the death of former president Ali Abduallah Saleh on December 4th. The Saudi-led coalition's push to counter Iranian-backed Houthi expansion in the region has resulted in a tactical quagmire and devastating humanitarian crisis. Most worryingly for the coalition, what was intended to be a low-tech counterinsurgency action at arms length from the Kingdom has developed to a stage where Houthi forces are sporadically firing long-range missiles into the heart of Saudi territory, and now claim (questionably, given the extreme ranges involved) to be targeting nuclear power construction facilities in the UAE.
The announcement of this trade and military alliance likely signifies a weakening of the GCC bloc as a cohesive foreign policy alliance. Although the agenda of the Kuwait City summit has remained private, it is likely that the Yemen conflict dominated the discussion, leaving little space for identifying a solution to the Qatar crisis. Future GCC meetings may now be little more than symbolic in nature, as divisions between member states deepen further and prevent meaningful reform. It is also likely that upcoming OPEC summit set for June 2018 will suffer from the fallout of an increasingly divided Gulf bloc, potentially impacting economic reform and oil prices globally.
Although Qatar was able to meet with the blockading countries at the summit, it is unlikely that the situation will be resolved in the foreseeable future. Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have continued to sound robustly anti-Qatar rhetoric, blaming Doha and Iran for the current state of instability in the region. The new alliance itself has also caused tension within more closely aligned states, with Kuwait having already expressed its opposition to the development. Overall, a separate Saudi-UAE alliance demonstrates the significant weakening of the once close-knit GCC fraternity.

Mathew V Releases "The Coast"
RJ Frometa September 17, 2018 News Leave a comment
Mathew V is a 22 year old singer/songwriter from Vancouver, Canada. After 10 years of classical operatic vocal training, Mathew moved to London at the age of 17 to teach himself how to write pop music.
The openly gay pop artist, writes emotive and powerful songs, having previously been featured on heavyweight tastemaker blogs and playlists such as Billboard, NMF Canada and even cover of the Amplify: Global Pride Spotify Playlist, he has accumulated over 6 million streams, and that number is growing daily.
His music has an obvious British pop and old school soul influence, that is reminiscent of some of the acts that Mathew V has been lucky enough to share the stage with, such as Hanson and Betty Who.
Mathew V's The Coast carries a 2000's pop vibe, bringing the melody to the forefront of the music with a catchy chorus, speaking about the single Mathew V says "I was always scared to make pop music. I was scared that I wouldn't fit the mould as a man unless I was singing about girls in the club. "The Coast" is the first song where I broke down those limitations and made music that I want to listen to on repeat."
The Coast is a way to remind not only Mathew V but the listener, that sometimes it is better to feel the high peaks and the low valleys, rather than feel nothing at all. That's the human experience.

The popularity of cycling in the UK continues to rise, particularly in urban areas. Despite the increasing availability of cycle helmets and long standing publicity as to their protective benefits, in the absence of a statutory requirement to wear a cycle helmet, the percentage of cyclists wearing a helmet is modest and remains a matter of personal choice. The Highway Code recognises cyclists as vulnerable road users and states that cyclists 'should wear a cycle helmet which conforms to current regulations, is the correct size and securely fastened'.
A cyclist's failure to wear a cycle helmet may lead to a finding of contributory negligence and a consequent deduction in damages for personal injury. For a deduction to be made, the defendant must plead the allegation and thereafter establish that the cyclist was at fault for not wearing a helmet (followers of the Sikh religion are exempted by Section 16 (2) of the Road Traffic Act 1988 from wearing protective headgear whilst wearing a turban) and that this failure and was causative of greater injuries. Once the above two limbs have been satisfied, the court will then apply a 'just and equitable' deduction to the claimant's damages, by reference to the parties' respective blameworthiness and the causative potency of each of their actions. The degree of reasonable care expected of a child cyclist will be determined by reference to the degree of care which may reasonably be expected of a child of the claimant's age at the date of the accident.
Research suggests that when settling a case, parties routinely apply a discount of around 25% to claims concerning the non-use of a cycle helmet by an injured cyclist.
As to the potential negligence of an unhelmeted cyclist, consideration should be given at an early stage to the type of protection that a cycle helmet affords, the particularity of the accident circumstances and the location and severity of the head injuries sustained.
Cycle helmets sold in the UK are required to comply with the relevant European Standard and are designed to provide effective protection from rider impact when falling from a stationary riding height of 1 metre onto a stationary kerb shaped object, at an impact speed of no more than 12 mph. Helmets offer protection by distributing the impact force over a larger surface area and by absorbing some of the impact energy. They are not designed nor tested to offer effective protection to cyclists who collide with a moving vehicle or otherwise suffer a glancing blow.
Many severe head injuries result from rotational injury. It has been opined that cycle helmets offer little effective protection to a rapidly rotating skull and that the wearing of a helmet could worsen the severity of head and neck injuries as it increases the head impact surface area, adds additional weight to the skull and may convert a direct force into a rotational force.
Expert evidence from cycle helmet experts and medical experts will be required in order to investigate causative fault. It will address the design of the cycle helmet and its protective benefits, the speed, type and direction of the impact force, the injury sustained and whether the use of a properly fitted helmet would have avoided or lessened the injuries sustained.
Case law on contributory negligence in relation to the non-use of a cycle helmet provides helpful guidance as to the evolving judicial approach to the issue.
In Williams v Ashby (1999) (Unreported)the main allegations of contributory negligence related to the claimant's failure to wear a cycle helmet and his failure to wear fluorescent or otherwise conspicuous clothing. The claimant's cycle helmet expert, Dr Nigel Mills, concluded that helmets are less effective when a cyclist hits a vehicle as opposed to the road surface, a serious brain injury is quite common when cyclists suffer a glancing blow from a vehicle as distinct from a direct collision, and a helmet would not have afforded any protection to the claimant in this case as the head injury resulted from the right hand side of the face colliding with the road surface. The defendant's expert, Mr Kevin Clinton supported the contention that the claimant had been negligent in failing to wear a helmet. The defendant abandoned the above allegations of contributory negligence on the morning of the trial.
HHJ Brown in A (A Child) v Shorrock (2001) (Unreported) dismissed the claim of a 14 year old cyclist who had collided with a car and held that if liability had been established, a deduction for contributory negligence would not have been made given the absence of a statutory requirement to wear a cycle helmet.
The defendant in Drinkall v Woodhall  EWCA Civ 1547 successfully sought permission to resile from a liability agreement which had been made on an 80/20 basis in the claimant's favour for the non-use of a cycle helmet. It was argued that a higher discount of 25%, was achievable. It is unclear from the judgment whether the original deduction was confined to the cycle helmet issue only.
In Smith v Finch  EWHC 53 (QB) it was argued that a deduction of 15% for failing to wear a cycle helmet should be made in a case involving a cyclist who had sustained a serious brain injury following a collision with a motorcyclist, further to the guidance provided by the Highway Code and the observations of Lord Denning MR in Froom v Butcher, where a finding of contributory negligence for a failure to wear a seatbelt was made, despite the absence of a legal compulsion to wear one.
In Smith, the allegation of contributory fault failed on causation given the finding that the claimant's head had struck the ground at more than 12mph, the speed at which cycling helmets cease to be an effective form of protective headgear. In his judgment, Mr Justice Griffith commented, "…there can be no doubt that the failure to wear a helmet may expose the cyclist to the risk of greater injury…" and "…subject to issues to issues of causation, any injury sustained may be the cyclist's own fault…". In arguing fault as to the non-use of a cycle helmet defendants have often relied on the above comments of Mr Justice Griffith.
Reynolds v Strutt and Parker  EWHC 2263 (QB) concerned a cyclist who, whilst participating in a cycling race organised by his employers, sustained a head injury following a collision with another competitor. The claimant was not wearing a cycle helmet, despite the availability of helmets, and the impact speed was found to be below 12 mph. HHJ Jones found that the employer had failed to properly assess the need to recommend and require the participants to wear cycle helmets and had been negligent in failing to communicate information regarding the wearing of helmets. A finding of two-thirds contributory negligence was made on the basis of the claimant's reckless actions in the race and his failure to wear a cycle helmet.
Phethean-Hubble v Coles  EWCA Civ 349 involved a 16 year old cyclist who was riding his bicycle at night, without a helmet and without lights, on a pavement. He was struck by the defendant's vehicle, which was travelling in excess of 30mph and sustained a severe brain injury. HHJ Wilcox commented that although there was no legal compulsion to wear a helmet, the starting point was to accept that a cyclist who failed to wear a helmet ran the risk of contributing to his injuries. The court found that the use of a helmet and lights would have made no difference to the claimant's injuries and the allegations of contributory negligence were accordingly dismissed.
In Sinclair v Joyner  EWHC 1800 (QB) Mrs Justice Cox refused to make a finding of contributory negligence in relation to the cycle helmet issue as medical evidence had not been adduced to show that the failure had made the claimant's injuries worse. Findings of contributory negligence were however made on other grounds.
Capps v Miller  2 All ER 333 involved an injured motorcyclist but provides useful guidance to cycling cases involving an unfastened helmet. In Capps, the claimant sustained severe head injuries whilst wearing an unfastened helmet. The Court of Appeal held that this had contributed to the seriousness of his injury. Whilst medical evidence did not allow a finding to be made as to extent to which injuries had been made worse by the failure, a reduction of 10 % was however applied.
Of interest is the approach followed by a German Federal Court of Justice in relation to the non-use of a cycle helmet in 2014 (reference VI ZR 281/13). The Federal Court overturned a lower court's contributory negligence discount of 20% and ruled that no such deduction should apply. In reaching a decision as to the standard of care that a prudent and sensible cyclist was required to exercise, the Federal Court appears to have been influenced by research which indicated that only 11 % of urban cyclists in Germany wear a cycle helmet.
There remains some uncertainty as to whether a cyclist in the UK will be found to be at fault when a finding is made that the wearing of a cycle helmet would have prevented or lessened the injuries. The extent of the contributory negligence discount to be applied when the sole causative fault relates to the absence of a cycle helmet remains unclear. Each case is fact specific and will be determined on this basis.
When considering the actions of the cyclist, it is important to give consideration to other potential issues such as the cyclist's compliance with the rules of the road, recklessness, visibility to other road users, positioning on the road and use of a phone or headphones whilst riding. The totality of the actions of the defendant will also require proper analysis in order to form an educated view as to the likelihood of, and extent of any, contributory negligence discount.
From a case handling perspective, the importance of carrying out an early thorough investigation in order to preserve the evidence and establish the facts and thereafter appointing suitable experts to investigate the causative effect of the accident is vital. An allegation of contributory negligence should be pleaded at the earliest opportunity.

Warum ich für 140.000€ das TESLA Model S PLAID kaufen würde! (MEGA-Review)
hello guys welcome to a new video and in this video finally a video again why i would buy a car for 140,000 euros it is about that we can easily see about the will but there is a crucial difference here that it is my car i have already driven the first 300 km and in this video I will show you a little more extensively what makes this car special what are the little delicacies but also the things that maybe are not so good that I have already noticed that I did not like the most It is a lot what I started with these videos five years ago.
I had a bit of a break now that I didn't do many of them, but now again very long before I started and a very fast note. Take a look at the store across from
. com there you will find accessories for your test
3 and will maybe there is something for will we have some stuff there that already works there who knows maybe if you expand it a bit in the future for
S and X too we have the brand tobifere that we launched ourselves where we produce sustainable accessories for example rubber floor mats for
3 the We' I'm already considering doing it for the food and X but we'll see how it will be there so take a look or Tobi fair. me if you watch the early warning videos you know i look at the car first from jump outside then take the car for a spin and yeah the will not completely reinvented now what's really new is the drivetrain a bit which is here below with three engines in general, the design is basically but not as the first
is presented but everything is still black here in front that was a black woman who looked a little grill but short after d And that's why they only presented this design where the
logo is free and where there is only a small opening here not much has changed the lights are new now they are not new on the x-planet
but only on the s-Platt
of this one LED strips I find extremely unpleasant in appearance.
I like the design. Definitely not the most beautiful designer. I've always said taigan is a little nicer but of course that's the way it is when you have a car you kind of fall in love with it even more than you somehow drive yourself the color gray now I like very well were my early
3's and also ordered my
flat now I really like it again and it just stands on the car I wouldn't recommend this color for the x though and neither would the y we've already said about our electric here they had the color they just don't it fits.
With the big cars we don't know why with three and also 3S I think it looks very good with X rather not so much but hey we got to the side what
did here is remove the chrome so similar to the
3 where they did a chromedi ago For a long time now they have also done it with the S here Chrome before it was all black I personally like it very much I am glad that it is as it is now the cameras here on the outside are significantly larger than the
3 and Y they are also further away , probably because the fender is even further back at the rear, it's just fat, but that's also black, the door handles are black, the electric motor right now, he doesn't recognize me, that's somehow, now they come out and i can open it down here everything is black another little thing i have to show you here once when the car is closed there is a screw here so that is absolutely impossible.
is doing that that doesn't look good so one negative at the point the door handles already tried to pinch my fingers that didn't work they are very sensitive and react when there is something coming in and out here but we also have a light which is very cool in the dark you can see where the door handles are very handy i think the shape is very very cute how it falls and we need to talk briefly about the wheels yeah wheels umm actually they are plastic hubcaps which I can now remove I still have the winter tires on they have summer tires now they are actually plastic hubcaps for €140,000 which are here but now I have to say I ordered them like this I would have too the biggest the rims can take there are normal rims unsurprisingly in black i didn't then i might have it in d i watched a pickup video that might have reconsidered some of the setup stuff so far but now i'm flying towards them we'll get to them in a bit but i think the rims look good so don't misunderstand of course when you know there's just plastic behind it that's a word and i don't like them the rims as they are at all, they don't work that way, I like it. but of course the advantage with such aerodynamic tops that you have lower consumption is not exactly a disadvantage.
I would say with the rear sight, we are first on this beautiful wing that you will only find on the horse in the long range
with the two motors. it won't have that's always a
feature that has the
3 Performance Performance and it just leaves
s where the
x which always has a spoiler sticking out that with the
S you have this trim here made of carbon I think it looks very, very sporty , we also have the new lights here in the back, before this black bar used to be chrome I think it used to be, it went to the light here now it ends here with the light and we have them very nice yes they have these outlines strong open lights this is what they look like so i think they are well contoured but the shape hasn't changed much over the years tester still installed a chrome logo why is everything else black but the logos are chrome yes i will Maybe I'll change the diffuser down here, it's painted black, a little dirty, like I said, I've driven it a bit and here we have the Pad Batch, there are also
s where it just says that the flat
S stands here on the front back, not anymore I don't know if that's with the
s where there's room here or just the flat letter train.
I find it very good, but you can see the Wa. immediately I eat extremely fast and that's really a thing folks I've been on the freeway huh I've already done drag that part is brutal but we'll get to it I'd say we've looked at everything from the outside we're now I'm doing a hybrid like this Transition where I open the tailgate once and here you can see an advantage, namely I jump here oh okay now I'm halfway there and I can sit here unlike the
3 where the tailgate only opens here and you have such a small shop or on the porsche taycan or the audi e-tron gt there is such a small space everywhere it's almost like on the
3 you have the opening the hinges up here almost for the heads of the back seat and you have a great cargo space you can basically sit here and you can put a lot of things in it I find it very very practical and yes it's really an advantage if you occupy the car with the
3 when I had the mass put also the problems the school tilla is very small pushing the suitcase in can be a bit of a problem but we look at the front of the Frank again of course I open it with the app it's incredibly fast as usual I press it and the car immediately opens the Frank the logo stays down here , the flannel opens up, so it's just the flap.
At first I thought the logo would somehow come up with it, but no, the flannel is relatively small, or the older
s that had a significantly larger flannel that only had the rear engine, no front engine, had a frank giant so it went up here and it was significantly lower as well but with this little frank we have emergency development up front here you can hear if you lock someone in there I don't know how far so don't ever go there ever but there are also people smaller than me, yes, but that's how it is here in the front as it should be in a normal car here in the front under the hood d The opening for the windshield washer fluid and otherwise there is nothing else to can do here let's take a look at the interior but before we do I would like to come back to a point because I went from the outside in very quickly and I didn't talk about the processing of this car I don't want to intensify it too much I've been talking now because it's very car specific, which ultimately doesn't fit and what fits my car, for example, other things don't fit. just like with the car we had here before in my first video where i processed very carefully the only thing that seems to think somehow is that the driver doors seem to cause problems on all cars it's the same with mine maybe time you hear it close, but it also hits the metal a bit, that's not true.
I'd like to give
a chance to correct that I'll definitely make a video on that, but I'll wait and see how the tester cures this first. I have a service appointment in a week where all the points I have noticed will be
ed. I do not know what has already been done and what has already been done. it's been fixed look but yeah the processing quality of the S and X isn't perfect and actually it bothers me that
didn't learn here because the cars I've picked up five
3s in the last three months are also Shanghai the the only thing that was on a car was that during transportation it has to be during transportation that on the back of the taillight and a little on the rear door something fell on it and there were small nicks it was fixed in the service center the size of the gap was very good in the car, but the size of the gap was also very good in all other cars, very very good workmanship it was really wonderful, the cars that are supposed to come from Grünheide are very good, so ours was what w What I got was perfect again there were reports that everything wasn't always optimal but basically that wasn't that big of a problem anymore at
and now they failed to bring it up to the level of the expensive
S and X, so up.
Yeah it's the same as 33 that's a bit annoying because you've spent a lot of money here and then you can expect it to be perfect when it's delivered but now my but because I have this car with the knowledge So the
was delivered in United States for a long time and there have already been reports that it wasn't all perfect of course I think it's on a different level in Germany than we're reporting now in America but I'm aware of that bought a little bit that my car didn't should be perfect now there are things that really bug me that the testers need to fix badly but something like the back door which is on the right hand side you get a little higher to the left a little further down you should definitely take a look at it and if you can do something , so I hope you can also do something that will definitely give you more positive points, but that's not on my priority list, is it? now and then I don't have it I expected it to be so I bought this car despite this knowledge because the processing for me personally is a point since I have tested a car but it is not on the top of the list or there are others on the top Things with which this processing can be offset and that is always about alternatives.
I had a Porsche Thai last year, which I was not happy with. I was definitely not happy with him. It has wonderful processing but the IT was a mess I had charging issues and all that stuff that added up and then I didn't really care about the processing and then e ben now we look forward to the
waited without moving because i know the IT fits charging here it works i can go to romania to the black sea i can drive super charged thats important to me personally we will be doing road trip videos again so definitely subscribe if you want to see more of what we are doing with this car if There are many more videos to come that were important to me and yes I can understand when someone says the car has to be top notch otherwise I don't.
I want it good so
and S times x nothing for you but if you say you attach great importance to IT and absurd acceleration ne then you also have to think about the car the mass I can have last year cost the Same new car price as the car, of course, then there was still a 10% discount on the mass can, but that was when Pipifax was the acceleration in which it was worse than the performance of the
3. What happens here I even know. I don't even think about it, we'll talk about it right away, but the steering wheel jog, how could it be approved?
Driven alot it's nothing compared to them you can't imagine how insanely fast this car is so suffice to say let's take a look at the whole just so you understand it's not always just about processing no so that processing is high on the list, but compared to other things it doesn't, and that's what I and um, so far I definitely have no regrets. The car from the operation of everything is really cool, but I'll show you that now, let's start with the steering wheel. I'll tell you it's amazing and I really don't want to drive without this steering wheel again.
It's really great. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is. We'll see it again when I drive, but it really is practical. Yes, it is practical and fun. great feeling steering wheel functionit looks like this i have the turn signals here no so i press it once then it flashes to the right you can see the blind spot camera come on and it shows me ahead i flash to the right if i press then flash to the left yes i press again it stops flashing but you really have to be good as never Cancel the turn signal so i press again cause the car came with the latest software update or was it only with
Ryan and S and X had it for a long time I don't know as soon as I change lanes, then of course I hit the turn signal and then it takes it to the left and as soon as
recognizes that it's in the lane that I wanted to change to, then if I turn more to the left left, stop blinking. because i had wondered no you normally have a lever back here no and it's the same with
you push it down a bit i think it's the same with BMW i don't know how it is with Mercedes then it flashes three times then it opens when you're rich then it does it clicks into place and it flashes until yes it's off or if it just corners then if it actually turns it flashes until it's reached a certain angle so an angle of impact from the steering wheel only here I have these levels yeah not at all i just have it on or off it works but still because the car recognizes you are changing lanes and then stops by itself it works perfectly so its really cool the only situation doesnt have to work where the lanes work no so if on the freeway if its a two lane freeway it will jump like a three lane freeway you drive in the left lane and you drive almost immediately take something with you to the left lane rdo and it flashes so then
doesn't recognize that there was a fork that you actually tended to be in the middle lane and shift to the left because it doesn't work but then you push again and you get used to it it's a bit of a mass memory you have to build here so i normally have the turn signal here i've noticed before that i just flashed here but nothing happened because there's just no levers here it's ground at first i still had to look to the right flashing now i know it's ok up it's to the right blinking down down here this line stays blinking these are touch screens but they vibrate when you press them so you know you've activated them I remember now so when I do a lever and I want to blink to the right , then I push it up, that means I have to push the button on top too, if I blink to the left, then I push the button down or and I have to press left so I think it's great that I'm here but the blind spot bothers me too though.
I can't move the camera. It is always fixed here. The
S is the next thing that just fixes the high beam you push here and it flashes you see I also wondered what it's like on the freeway if I want to flag somebody now so they tend to be allowed, down the road, in You are allowed on the highway not to blink at anyone before I only do it when I see they have a chance to pass to the right and when I arrive I blink once and most of the time people pass too I don't do it here no I don't do it to them I do just like is that because you have to somehow have the possibility of the high beam staying on is so that if I press it once now that it just comes on and off if I stop now you can see now I'm putting the high beam in BAM now it's done permanently it appears something like this around the high beam symbol it comes to the circle and when it's full then you release it so you have to hold the button then the high beam stays on again permanent form ente of course you also have the option here The ability to do this automatically and set the other light options always comes up on the screen that's how it works on the Autobahn press once briefly and basically hold the indicator once and turn the high beam on permanently on the left side otherwise we still have the Volume which also shows up front if I rotate here or if I tilt it so once here I just skip to the next song it's exactly like on the
we turn left to find volume tilt next song please previous song on the right hand side voice control still works wonderfully navigate to the Miniatur Wunderland and get the path shown here once again cancel trip wiper is here so here i have i am absolutely shocked i mean it was on the
3 with rec wipers ently quite satisfied where it wasn't working at all Drizzly weather so when it wasn't really wet but the street water was still churning and the window was slowly getting wet with so many drops the
3 never really worked I don't know if that is the case and the X fitted has its own sensor but I don't have to turn the wipers on or off once you've seen the car from the outside it's been a bit wet the last few days so I'm really surprised how well it works here alternatively , but of course you I can press it and then I see an ad up front here where I yeah, that's interesting, I've never done it.
I can press stuck here once and then I can use the left wheel to set how it should clear or turn that off but that will also be done with the graph shown but I always have it on auto now I have to press the button once for a long time so it gets wet but you can do that Now imagine here in the city there is no button but it's almost alone on the map so you can activate autopilot with this button if I press it twice now or I just set it to autopilot here activate the steering assistant with a double click or it can also be a single click if I press then activate the autopilot which is different from the
3 that I find there just press the button on the right then I press the gear activate the steering control voice but the voice control has its own here I did not get a button for that, just because I did not have the lever here in the back where I activate and deactivate the autopilot penthouse on the
3 but then I put quite a bit of speed normally here with the spinner which means turning it faster doesn't make it five steps when I do it also makes it five steps down but which is annoying and doesn't i know where that comes from yes my puzzle is broken but i have already told you otherwise it is the same when i touch this lever is it like this hi now i just got a package i can show you here and a video right there i am very curious if i know that now works typing normally i set the cruise control follow distance no so here the distance to the vehicle in front that's how it is with the
3 so i can say i want to take you there so autopilot should i drive there or be further away the incline on the
S it only has one function when I do that nothing happens because otherwise I forgot and I always have to set the distance here I don't get it hopefully that it will fix itself now we got to a point that it's ok but i don't think it's optimal or definitely not optimal and that's the horn the horn isn't here yeah so i can't press w i mean i don't want it to happen reflexively in a situation dangerous.
I would also press it like this. I don't press the horn now because we are surrounded by offices. There's the horn. another car I think it works in most situations you'll think about it but I think reflexively you remember I might hit it here again if I want to honk I don't think it's so optimal and I think there was already a version in the US In the US where that was possible the horn was because it didn't have why mine doesn't have it now because it actually has the latest features on how to drive with the wheel and so you can do it again with it I handle ideas but we'll do my own video because I have another desire to gain a little more experience, but my first impression of driving is that it works.
I can't find a situation where I thought: hey, I want a normal steering wheel now. but the advantages really outweigh the disadvantages and the biggest advantage is that I can just see everything here in front of the taikan. I'll bring the example back because it's the one I've ridden the most with, somehow I have the screen that was here. in front which is also the case a nice köfte display was the half i didn't see because i tend to see it when i go into driving modes so that's my seating position i always have the steering wheel as low as possible and me so the seat is low too but now i'm a bit bigger so 1.95 my head is always relatively high and if you figure there's still an arch up here no then it would have covered half here in front of the screen . but I have complete freedom to see everything here, I see everything there and that's just amazing, it's a warm feeling, that's why I found
3 for example, always so good because here I was just nothing and I had the speed here , it was never covered by the steering wheel but that is also a personal thing and now you may have just asked hi Nico how did you put a forward gear because the lever is not here and now it works for the most part it says i look around above the screen you can see that you have a bar here where we can when I reverse and the camera opens up here so you have the side cameras here which are very useful and the big camera on the top has a really good resolution and here front you can see the screen again it will now drive backwards press to drive backwards so the gas was shown again then if now I swipe forward again it brings up the animation that the car backs up once and if Now I drive up.
You'd drive forward and the animation would change, which means it's really mostly your choice. ned also so I can shift while scrolling no so I wanted to move forward now I type and now scroll back I was going back and forward of course it's less easy to do that slide like this while scrolling than with a stick I have to be honest , not so ideal for parking. I have to stop here for a while longer, but I just did it for the first time to show you that most of the time you just open the door or cut me off. and at that moment the car goes by itself when it is parked the car has another very good function I am going to go to it again and now it has just worked the car recognizes the surroundings and basically I am still a P that here and now I am going to give a I step with my foot and drive and the car immediately says hey you definitely want to drive in front I don't have one I don't have I I didn't say anything to the car but the car recognizes hey you can see there's a building behind me.
You definitely want to drive straight ahead and it was like that every time I got in the car down in the underground parking lot. I just used my foot on the brakes and was able to drive right away that's great you don't have to tell the car anymore that's why there's just a little lever that I should have moved but I think that's a great feature and you know. I don't like a start button now another element just streamlines and works I think it's unbelievably cool and now we've cleared up the steering wheel So we'll give it a try but my impression is I tend to drive more safely too, no so I might as well bring out a lot of arguments what argument that is uncertain because it is missing up here yes what could bring up the exact opposite argument i think this steering wheel makes driving a car safer because you are forced to tap left and right you just don't get a chance to driving like that here is not like Gangster style but they force you to touch and I drive most of the time with both hands on the wheel and that is safer in a dangerous situation on country road if you change the grip it is too late so that if you have to do it and then start again it's already too late and parking I have not had any problem so far because you get used to this f Orma so that's a lot about the steering wheel and I promise you there will be more to come because I think this is a hot topic let's continue here with the normal controls and here also the door opener I press it and the door opens the Easy Peasy works like the
3 but there's no push button here, it's just a touch pad, not enough if I just walk on it, I actually have to press once to get it to open.
I have storage space down here, which I think is very good. It wasn't on the previous
so I have the beautiful carbon here. and here below all white for those who watched the pickup video you know it came as a surprise to me that my car is white I ordered it that way but forgot I love it now so I find it really nice now and sometimes , I have to do it. life, sometimes you make a mistake and do something wrong to get out of your comfort zone a bit and discover other things. I think I would order it like that again to be honest. because you have here on the left so it's like a glass surface all the way to the back and you can hardly ever see the transition from the screen very well done ifhe was braking then you know you go auto forward and the view changes in the middle so maybe i always have the front right in front of him that the cyclist is still a person back there the autopilot view i have now here normally the
3 is here but here it shows me other things, interestingly it's showing me a car here now that will just be the reflection of the
itself, interesting people, it shows me right there in front of people when I know where to navigate, it also shows me the map here on the side left for the next navigation instructions and on the right side the speed this view is fixed but I haven't found a way to change it in any way so far, so that it somehow consumes me or something like the screen doesn't work for me.
I don't know if it's still supposed to happen or if it's planned like this. I can't change anything here. We'll get to the middle and here you have this beautiful display it's great with this thing it's really a reasonable size I think it's beautiful built in so right now it says I can drive back so perfect it doesn't show and it's a great size too nicely incorporated here with the frame of course a bit like a tablet here but I think it looks cool and it's fast no that's just I love it that makes
stand out when it's here now because they're not here at the highway junction he wants to put a finger on it and it doesn't navigate so I can start driving then he shows me different routes here so I know it's probably like on the
3 too he shows me here there's a little bit of traffic here it's just amazing different than the
3 and why the view is a little bit more dynamic so I have a bigger screen and I also have the additional screen where the autopilot information is shown to me which means I have the double the space and that means when I go to the If I open the music example I can either have it in the view or I can also have it in the view and now I can move it here and then I can also have it on the right side I have a card here full of music options, but I can also make it small and I can make it small again and then it's down here in the corner and I can move it here again and that's how it works with all the music.
Apps no now I can only open Spotify I can drag it in here it's a bit more dynamic because you just have more space here but otherwise everything is really very identical no if I open the YouTube cinema now then I'll have it here too . I can also make it a little smaller up here. Something like that is now only on the left side and I can also make it disappear here again. That works. I have Arcade and I have Steam here. We will try well. away I just got a controller that hopefully works we'll see I have a game box you know everything and then the setup and here you go. n seen i can pull out my screen so it's angled more towards me but i can also angle it the other way it's angled more towards the passenger i think that's a really good thing now i always have like this while driving it pointed me more yeah, then it gives a better overview of the screen homling is pre-installed on the
S probably on the
X So I have LTE I have Bluetooth here of course here in the first overview I have the different things from the mirror right away adjust the direction adjust the fold the mirror in I can lift the suspension up here that's only when it runs over something Adjust the screen brightness and open the glove box Plop that's open now that's a thing by the way and if I did it now it would have been a little better but that's just one of the two things I don't find as high quality in the interior the second I can also do h we're going to show you briefly that's this here it's nice here at the exterior with the faux leather but it could have been made nicer somehow coming to the center console and here it's really cool to see when i hit the brakes so you're really there also see how the suspension behaves now i almost always set the suspension on auto then it does it dynamically whether it should be set hard or snug which I also set of course just to save a little electricity Vehicle level defaults to low it's now on high because I just set that now we're driving down again.
You can also see that something is happening up here. You can also set it to sporty and it's probably permanently hard or long. you can set it a little bit more sensitive here so the ride comfort is either smooth or firm but now i do it on auto when i open When i'm on the highway i usually play sports in comfort i use the damping on autopilot that's just a setting. I drive with the autopilot so cold anyway that it also jumps smoothly under the direction of the pedals. Of course I can activate plan mode here and track strip mode. so and so in dragstick mode now it shows me how long it takes until it hits max temp to get back to full performance there was a relatively long period of time 32 minutes but rest assured implant mode speeds up by then , even if the car is basically cold because it heats up the battery when I turn it on and now it's 6 degrees outside the car is always blazing fast so it's not like when I start something at 6 degrees that the Somehow first about everything, it's like a Trabi on the highway, the car is incredibly fast and it may not be able to write off 100% performance right away fen, but for that you just have to turn on dragstep mode, but it itself is already the most fast on the freeway on the country road I have no idea where it is actually I drove yesterday and sped up after five minutes at the first freeway entrance and it's absurd and there it was for example having driven for half an hour and engaged drag mode still needed two minutes to engage so yeah I know it's always been said a lot yeah he can't call performance right away People just sit and press the accelerator pedal when cold it will push you against the seat like that that is absurd and manufacturers in particular that made a lot of fun of it also had performance losses unfortunately i had to experience first hand if now i activate dragstitute mode then i get here so i activate a brexit mode then it heats up the battery and there nn i can start like this and then it gives me the instructions for the actual launch i have to put my left foot on the brake with my right foot on the accelerator then it shows the animation but you'll see that again in this video it's really sick we have follow mode i don't know i can turn it on here exactly so i'll drop some info now i can do adjust it but also like the
3 i can set different things here the drift setting which is sort of the power packs only to the rear wheels or only to the front wheels stability assist if you're charging to -10 that it's normal I can just set the limit here Open the charging connection Autopilot Now I bought the extended autopilot it has worked wonderfully so far the um yeah auto lane change on the Autobahn it was great blocking the lights actually its all like on
3, the
is an S oh, now that I'm here on Trip here in the consumption view I'm missing a dot up here I'm missing a dot I no longer see the consumption for the last 10 25 to 250 km I don't know why what isn't it on the
X has this menu item and that bothers me too so I think I used to be here in front of the screen and they have I don't know if they forgot but that's a view I actually have all the time it I have used, how much I have used in the last few kilometers and I don't see it anymore, unfortunately it is a bit unfortunate that the air leaks, I can also cool the seats, so now the air enters through these small points, of course I have the steering wheel option Joop or that one it's quite cold that's great I have the possibility to adjust the airflow here it's quite usual I can activate the seat heating in the back of course I can activate the dog mode if the dog is alone here in the car so that's just one of the reasons for me for
yes the others are now telling me it's ridiculous no I have a dog no and I use it at least once a week in this dog mode and now I even have the option to use the app to look inside the car with this camera and I see something the dog is doing when I'm shopping or how awesome is that please and the screen says dog mode is on and you don't have to worry inc usually if it's about 30 degrees outside in here it gets cold and the dog is fine that's what I use as I said at least once a week it contributes to the fact that I have this car and also the
3 that he has and you know I appreciated it a lot, let's get to the point in the back that I have on the back of the screen and that's also the big new one so you can see that I can do this I can control the airflow here but I can also look at everything possible here at through Youtube Twitch cinema and the good thing is that I can control it from here in front, that means I can click here, I do the camera like this, I accept everything, now I control here in front with the screen what happens on the screen at the top back so I can just turn on YouTube for my dog from the back from here but I can also lock the screen here for example so it can't be used because I can for example also start music from the back yeah I can just b play music somehow or something a lot of the screen like on
3 like i said two or three things are missing i really dont understand why they are not here they could come mac let's move on to where i showed the door i forgot why full of that, I think this material is great, why did they do it, I don't know why they didn't take the material here, for example, from the ceiling lining. , it's also a difference to the
3 and the
3 the headlining is all black here we still have the oh here there's still aluminum foil on it it's all black on the
3 it's so gray and I don't know why I don't they do use the material here but like I said I think it's actually nice I think it looks good again the material mix that was brought in the seats is wider than the
3 of course it just has a little more space the car is a little wider overall I find them but still comfortable they could offer a little more lateral support for yes the performance and cornering you drive with the car; otherwise you have a normal F here Smile for the cell phone to charge inductively that means if my cell phone always throws it then it charges inductively down here I have the hazard warning lights and here down at the bar, i can somehow in D in P and something like that. but i have no idea how i do it to activate it ok it doesn't take long but now i don't know what but you can see it here now i can practically park i can engage reverse but i have to hit the brake for that or i can hit the bill but really the tester doesn't want that at all because I've been stepping on the brake for a long time and had my finger on it for a long time and only then somehow it started so it's nothing for an everyday situation you use the screen and that it's basically just for emergencies here in the center console everything is also nice carbon like the one we have here in front here's what's not so cool this little sloppy thing but i can close it halfway and when i do that the light goes out too you see when i open it now the light comes on and now the light goes off so now i was most of the time on the go because somehow i still drank here most of the time but i can close that completely it just happens in two stages I can also do what for the very well the me It's also a bit flimsy I can push it and push it and then I have the big compartment here by the way a prototype for our charging stand for airport which is also now available in the store across from
we decided to print it ourselves with sustainable filament you can see my airport is now charging here and it works on the
X so it's cool it's practical but could have been simply better in terms of processing the compartment opens magnetically so it snaps into place magnetically which somehow doesn't have a lock and then you also have a slightly deeper compartment here and in general , I could do all of that here and have a nice carbon surface here.
I think we're past this far and now I want to try something. I don't have this wonderful controller here blank and now I just go here on Kate I think it was and the Bluetooth settings per controller there. its connected as i understood it all steam deck games also work on the
s ok so you really need these games optimized directly for steam here are a few so the witcher god of war edding i had to download a game in the first place logically we postpone that, but I, we, I am making another video, but I know thatsomehow you can say, hey yeah, what do car games need?
That's just the door, no, so it's not that the car doesn't somehow cruise amazing and somehow supercharge and route planning. and all that and games for that but he can do everything else a car like that has to be able to do so sensible app and all that plus games so if anyone thinks it's nonsense then don't I should use it, but it's not that they don't work that you don't expect from the car, no, it's a little good, you have a duty and the car does it because it's easy to drive and it knows how to drive and it has autopilot and I have no idea, I don't know what that you have, basically it's just the obligation.
If you then compare it to other cars, you can always say here, okay, he can do it, you can play here while you're charging it. Can you watch Netflix here? You can watch YouTube and I think that's really amazing. I have to say that to be honest we are at the back right now and as you can see I am 1.95m tall, no you must not forget that my position is quite big. is in front of me now as my easy envy where I drive backwards again on the driver's side I could sit well here, which of course is not so good that it has also been criticized a little more often, that also surprises me now , you got plenty of air in here no that might be a little taller for me here but i still have to say i might sit well in here i want to be right here in the back to be honest i'm a bad passenger no i want to s itzen when you're somehow doing Launch Control or somehow with 250 on the Autobahn because I'm just a bad passenger and I'm even worse in the back seat and you've got this unbelievably cool roof no so you can see it works from here.
So where sort of the tailgate hinges go all the way up to the front windshield here and carbon's been incorporated here as well that's all you know like I said you've got the screen here you can do everything I can also pause the music from here in the back when i'm sitting here i mean Legs like this if i have legs like this then i have my knees right in front of them of course a screen would somehow be even better here and then i have the console central here, where I also have more carbon, that's very good, I have a cup holder and I have some inductive here.
I can open the cargo area here, yes I can open that, there's even a storage bin here and here. I have an inductive charging area that means when I put my cell phone down it now charges and the sound in this car by the way I don't know how it is in the back seats it's extremely good so Laura was very happy I was very happy about that well done really crass but even more
3 speakers there the sound is already pretty good and you have to bring it up in settings when I'm here in music and then set that you have active noise suppression of the street here, but the calibration is running. at 0%.
I don't understand that very well, I don't know what 0% is, yesterday it was at 100% and it should be active, I haven't noticed a difference like that either, I don't know if it's working well here, somehow, the speakers, guys that they suppress the noise like with the new reduction headphones look at the back of the trunk again show us me here you still got a little bit of room downstairs we just got it downstairs thats really big again actually and if i move the seats now, you still have to push, okay, so you have more space accordingly, come on, I'll show you that first, from right to left, he knows I want to pass, I'm going in. lane to the right and i won't do anything and just stop blinking because he sees i've gone to the other lane, i can see it here too, left lane, right lane, he knows the two Sp urs and just stop blinking now here 8 degrees Still i have summer tires so good they dont grip and there was dirt hurricane 0 chance against here thats just brutal this car no its so you have to have experienced i mean this is a video now if you get a chance to experience it woah i'll do it again for you once here now start drag strip mode now i'll put my left foot on the right brake i'll press now it goes down the front to cheetah position and it tells me it's getting ready to start and that the suspension goes into a cheetah stance now that it's ready to start the car is more than I imagined makes me incredibly happy to drive it I'll also show you something now with the steering wheel no if I want to do a ok here now look then i zoom down here and then i just do this here it works like a round steering wheel you push it if you do this motion instead of grabbing it now but it works smoothly with the handlebars that's my experience so far i've had at first two or three times kind of caught the emptiness because I just thought so where's what's really crude in this frame the crazy thing is that the one on the Autobahn is similar so one that continues this performance so I was already at two 60 by the way this 280 what
says I couldn't get that up to now so good now I really haven't fully driven the whole time I was just stepping on the gas so to speak I was already at two 60 two 65 but then I had the feeling that you were going against this wall, ne 280 I had not been able to arrive before but I had the feeling that it was like that before, that it takes away the power that the 320 ceramic brakes can achieve, which I am planning I'm trying to get 20,000 euros, but that's natural I have a lot of money and if it's 320 then we'll find out then we'll both 50 two 60 but you'll reach it incredibly fast I still don't have it and now that's so relaxed look how easy it is to drive now turn on the autopilot here and can lean back so of course I have to be careful with gears but now he drives so relaxed springs extremely well what I only noticed is the rear window eating a bit so the cars look be a little wider but otherwise you have a good Prudence I have the blind spot camera that clears everything up for me so let's come to the conclusion and I have to say now after three days and 3350 kilometers that it is up to date I could not imagine A better car is just amazing and there is still a lot to discover and everything works.
It was already a super charger that charged up to 35% with 250 kW. I think it should be able to cover a range of 600 km. On the road trips of Romania you will see that there will be a lot more to come in the channel and we will also see that in a longer consideration of what the car is like, but the conclusion now I have it great. I have absurd acceleration from The car is about as fast as you can get it's just that I think the interior is one of the most beautiful things you can find right now of course somehow there's the QS that offers even more comfort , but that's what I want, I want to have a sports sedan, I would love to have a pure sports car but that doesn't exist at the moment and for the purpose it's just perfect if you don't want to have so much power if you want to make certain compromises on YOU yes you want better processing, then an EQ is something for you without questions, so everyone has their justifications, but for me in the overall package with which I just want to have a sportiness and reliability of the Cargo network so that we can drive from Romania to the Black Sea.
I want to have a reasonable network, so I don't want to be handed a car with software bugs and, um, where that's not developed anymore and there's no software. updates I don't want that anymore so the numbers are over for me that's a big factor for me buying a car these days for a lot of others it's not like that they just want more processing but for those who also value something like getting regular updates that changes this fast interface because they might also want to use steam and play computer games want to have Netflix on it during the loading break because it's an amazingly awesome car feel free to write in the comments what you say it was a very long video but as announced we'll do more we'll go into more detail on a lot of individual things something like that n the joop steering wheel long distance range all of this will come here on the channel they'll probably do a freeway video as well maybe you subscribe to ceramic brakes, but write me in the comments what is your current impression of the
is the last word on the subject of pr Processing As I said, she will also be getting an update from me.
The car has, as I said, certain flaws. I couldn't live with two flaws. Hopefully
will fix them. report the other flaws Expensive car it has but I've talked about it it's always about alternatives and I don't see any alternative to the car at the moment in terms of performance in terms of charging so I'm happy to accept processing I don't have any software money thanks for watching subscribed see you in the next video see you later ciao
