1
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: Here he is live from some god forsaken European nation.

2
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, please give a big good and talk.

3
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: Two bars is down at Pable.

4
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you, don't care, don't care, not a dunker.

5
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 3: Anymore, because I'm in Barcelona right now as we speak.

6
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 2: So it's kind of Germany, but not not sort of

7
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 2: not really have.

8
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: You been noticing my names all over the place in Barcelona?

9
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: There's a lot of Goldie.

10
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of the toilet doors cool called

11
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: Goldie for a good time, for a good time, this whole.

12
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,919
Speaker 1: There's some hot little Bucklovar called me. Now, pot off

13
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: the heels of the Munich Motor Show. You've landed in Barcelona.

14
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: What a cute little stopover.

15
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 3: So we're over here driving some Cupas which is a

16
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 3: home of the home of Kupra, the startup and I

17
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 3: use that in inverted commas from Volkswagen.

18
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: We'll get we'll get to them real soon because I've

19
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: been loving what they've been showing off at the motor show.

20
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: It's looked really cool. But tell me about you. Tell

21
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: me about the week that's been apart from cars, what's

22
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: been going on?

23
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: Well, look, the interesting thing with the motor show. It

24
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,039
Speaker 3: used to be that you would go to one of

25
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 3: these motor shows and there would be a stand from

26
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 3: every car manufacturer inside the motor show. It's been two

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: days walking around doing twenty thirty thousand steps a day

28
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 3: getting between all the things and all the interviews and whatever.

29
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: But now it's totally different. So what they're now doing

30
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 3: is they use the actual trade hall, which is the

31
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 3: main sort of place where where it all takes place

32
00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 3: for exhibitors, but they only have a small pre it's

33
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 3: for car companies. And then what they do is they

34
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 3: move all of the car companies sort of stands out

35
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 3: into public spaces. So if you go into the center

36
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 3: of Munich, they actually have all of the car companies

37
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 3: set up sort of all over Munich Munich City Center.

38
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 3: So it's a pretty pretty interesting setup. But it means

39
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 3: then that they can get a whole lot more foot

40
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 3: traffic from the public, because previously you used to have

41
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: to go to this big exublition center and walk around

42
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: and I can't even believe that you used to pay

43
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 3: to get into a motor show. It's like you're marketing,

44
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 3: you know, you're trying to sell a car, here, but so, yeah,

45
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 3: it is quite fascinating how it's evolved and how motor

46
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 3: shows are not what they used to be, but they

47
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 3: are now getting back to getting cars and concept cars

48
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 3: in front of the public.

49
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: And I think it's probably a smart one because when

50
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: you think about it, when you're in an exhibition building

51
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: an exhibition center, you're paying for space, you're paying for

52
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: square meters. This is kind of a little bit different.

53
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: You can I mean, they could have a for instance,

54
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: the Coopra showroom could be set up and re engineered

55
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: and redone with the launch of all their latest cars.

56
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: Or Volkswagen could rent out a building rather than throw

57
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: all this money at a tiny space and in that

58
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: space they can only sort of afford to put in

59
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: a few cars. Now they can have their own little

60
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: sort of showroom.

61
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's what they did.

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 3: So Mercedes Benz and the Cooper were both inside a museum,

63
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: so they had this awesome space in an outdoor area

64
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 3: and they had all of their cars there.

65
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: They were doing test.

66
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 3: Drives all day long. They good some concept cars. So

67
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 3: I think it does show you that it is changing

68
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: and it gets them or foot traffic, because if you're

69
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,839
Speaker 3: just walking through Munich. You end up seeing it even

70
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: if you had no idea the motor show was on

71
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 3: or had no interest in it.

72
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: And then every time.

73
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: There's a motor show and you're guarantee to find some protesters.

74
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: And these absolute drongos turned up today one of the

75
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: trade fair as well, and stuck a few cars lake

76
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 3: and in front of the motor show and did some protesting.

77
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 3: And I'm like, hey, listen up. Most people aren't here

78
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 3: at the actual exhibition center. They're out in the city center.

79
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: Your amausis, what were they protesting? What a weird thing?

80
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 2: They're just environmental protesters.

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 3: Every single time there's a European motor show, they turn

82
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 3: up and cause the team and they have an incredible

83
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 3: police presence. So they had went to this thing called

84
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 3: the Volkswagen Group Knight, and what it is is basically

85
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 3: all of the Volkswagen brands together in one space and

86
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: it's like an invite only events and they reveal stuff.

87
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 3: And the police presence at this event was incredible because

88
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: they were just worried about protesters coming in because they

89
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 3: bring in basically the entire board of Volkswagen, including the CEO,

90
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 3: and they just have a lot of security there, just

91
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 3: to make sure that nothing goes wrong, because you can

92
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 3: imagine if someone started to do something and wiped out

93
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 3: the whole Volkswagen board.

94
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: It would be a slight problem. Lover.

95
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about some cars. Actually through a couple

96
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: of cars that you've seen, because I feel like there's

97
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: a few that have been, a few that have been

98
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: the standout. One car popped up which I don't actually

99
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: think was at the motor Show but decided to launch

100
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: this week, which I'm so excited about, and I'll tell

101
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: you in a sack, but I feel like everyone had

102
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: eyes on the Volkswagen ID GTI.

103
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the ID GTI is basically Volkswagen. What they're

104
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: trying to do.

105
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 3: Is revive brand names and to use brand names to

106
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 3: sell their products. Because prior to this they'd launched ID three,

107
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 3: ID four, ID five, it was like what does that

108
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: even mean? So what they've done is they've said, well,

109
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 3: we're going to keep ID is the electric thing, but

110
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 3: we're going to stick GTI in because everyone knows what

111
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 3: GTI means.

112
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 2: They know that it's a front wheel drive performance car

113
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: in Volkswagen.

114
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 3: So they've debuted a small car that's around sort of

115
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: between a Polo and a golf in size, and they've

116
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 3: called it the GTI. It's going to be front wheel drive,

117
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 3: it'll be a performance hatching, and it looks really cool

118
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: as well, and they've really focused on making it affordable.

119
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 3: So the actual ID ID two was the costs of

120
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: twenty five thousand euros, which for an electric car is

121
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 3: pretty sort of pretty good. So the GTI will be

122
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 3: around that sort price point. What did you think of

123
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 3: the design of it?

124
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: I liked it. Volkswagen have always had this thing where

125
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 1: I guess with their designer, less is more approach. I

126
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 1: feel like with their r's, their r's were just always

127
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: a little bit too understated for my liking. I feel like,

128
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: if you're going to make a fast, little hot hatch,

129
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: give it some presents. And it was always understated in

130
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: a lot of ways. But I think this looks really good.

131
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: Can I just see the front of it again?

132
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah?

133
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: I think it looks really good. You know what I

134
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: found interesting was when they launched this, A lot of

135
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 1: the criticism, a lot of comments online and stuff was like, GGO,

136
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: it can't be technically a bloody GGO, it's electric, Like

137
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: it was the same idiots that when the Porsche ty

138
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: Can came out, they're like, you can't call it a

139
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: bloody turbo?

140
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: What Yeah, I saw that.

141
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 3: Someone said it's not fuel injected, so it can't be GTI.

142
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 3: It's like yeah right, and mate, yeah thanks Jim.

143
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, Bro, take a set. I think it's a

144
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: smart move. Actually, I think what they've done is good.

145
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,039
Speaker 1: You know. I was looking at the design for a

146
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 1: long time with mixed emotions because I sort of feel

147
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: like part of me was like, Ah, have they done enough?

148
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: Could they have done more? But I feel like if

149
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: they did more it would almost be a little bit

150
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: too much. I think they've found a really good balance.

151
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,119
Speaker 1: I do like the wheels on it. The wheels feel

152
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: like really wide. The front is quite aggressive at the

153
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: bottom half. I don't know if they'll keep those hooks though.

154
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

155
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: Well it's going to look pretty much exactly like that

156
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 3: when it launches, so I think the only real change

157
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 3: is are slightly smaller wheels.

158
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: It'll be on probably nineteen's instep of twenties yea.

159
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: And in terms of the aggressiveness, this is going to

160
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 3: launch as a scoter and also as a cooper, and

161
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: I think the Coopra is the one that's going to

162
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 3: be the aggressive looking one, so that's called the Reval.

163
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: And that looks unreal like they've done a really good

164
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 2: job with styling that. So yeah, they're trying to be

165
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: a bit more sort of asserted with the design value.

166
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 3: So Volkswagen is going to have Volkswagen Q and then

167
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 3: for the younger, sort of more creative ones, they're going

168
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: to shuffle that through to Cooper to really sort of

169
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 3: go to town on how they look.

170
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: Also, Tesla Model three is it just me because the

171
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: footage that I saw from the motor show, it was chockers.

172
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: It was almost like Paul Merrick and Gaudy Waters had

173
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: come into town. Like it was there was a crowd.

174
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: There was a crowd was building.

175
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 2: So the Tesla thing was interesting.

176
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 3: On the second day, I went for a walk around

177
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 3: to look at the other exhibits and I didn't even

178
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: know Tesla was there.

179
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: They had this tiny little stand.

180
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 3: With just two cars on the model Wie the Model three,

181
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh, look it's a your Model three.

182
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 2: So but yeah, you're right. It was so full of people.

183
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 3: It was there was fun blog So I'm sort of

184
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 3: doing my little video walkaround of it, and he stands

185
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: in front of me and pulls out a measuring.

186
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: Tape, and I'm like, what does this guy do?

187
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: Put it away. You don't need that much tape. I'm

188
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 1: very small.

189
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 3: So these guys basically walk around the show to new

190
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 3: models and measure things up so that they can sell

191
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 3: accessories measuring up. For some reason, the wipers, so he

192
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 3: may have been a manufacturer of wiper blades for Tesla's.

193
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: So it's just incredible that the most random people you

194
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 3: see at these shows that are there for all sorts

195
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: of just bizarre reasons, just strolling around the place. But yeah,

196
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: look there's a little throughout.

197
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 2: I think it.

198
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 3: Actually it looks pretty good. The update looks nice, the

199
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 3: front looks good, the really looks good. I think I'm

200
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 3: disappointed they still haven't gone with a head up displayer

201
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: or a screen in front of the driver of some description.

202
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 3: And then the second row as well, did you see

203
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 3: that screen? Like it's so stupid. I mean it's so

204
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 3: small you can't see anything on it. So they're like, oh,

205
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: it's for kids to watch things. I'm like, yeah, so

206
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 3: they can have like bent next because they just have

207
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: to look down the whole time.

208
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think they kind of missed missed out

209
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: of that.

210
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 3: They should have just used the money they spent on

211
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 3: that thing to put it out of the driver Would.

212
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,559
Speaker 1: They put it behind the driver's seat again, Well, I

213
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 1: don't know.

214
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 3: I would have thought so, because when you think about it,

215
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 3: if you've got kids sitting there, or just anyone sitting there,

216
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: you have to turn your head look down to watch

217
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: this screen.

218
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: It's just and it's such a small screen. I'm just

219
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 2: not gonna be able to see anything.

220
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 3: I just think they've tried to be clever, and that

221
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 3: was a part of the car that didn't need to

222
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 3: be clever.

223
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: Imagine if you had a couple of kids in the

224
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 1: back of that thing too, they would be fucking fighting,

225
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: and you'd just be like, Mum, would be the Caleb

226
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: kind of stop kicking the fucking testa screen. I'll kick

227
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: you in the fucking head, kick you out of the car, Caleb, George,

228
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 1: bloody Caleb. I told you we shouldn't have had Caleb

229
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: biggish mistakes in to the bloody day kind of stop.

230
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: We'll still about two hours till we get to Lake's entrance.

231
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: And we didn't change.

232
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: It's an interesting balance. I think it's enough to woo

233
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: new people to want it, yet it's not too much

234
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: where it's going to piss off the current market. Like

235
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: I literally had a guy who's whose tesla arrived the

236
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: day before this this was announced, and I just remember going, mate,

237
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: you should have waited, We should have waited.

238
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 2: As say. That was literally my dad as well.

239
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 3: He got his delivered last week and I told him

240
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 3: there was another one coming, but he said, oh, I don't.

241
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 2: Care, and I'm like, it's okay, just listen to me.

242
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: Who wants no, They never do. But I think it's

243
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: a good update. I think it looks great. I actually

244
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,839
Speaker 1: think the updates on every single sort of angle are

245
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 1: really well done. The wheels look better. I like those

246
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 1: little kind of weird inserts they've put between them.

247
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: What do you think about the steering wheel because they've

248
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 3: removed the stalks.

249
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, the indicators on the steering wheel is weird, weird.

250
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a hard thing to

251
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: get used to because actually the Lambo we had last

252
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: week had indicators on the steering wheel right, and I

253
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: just hated that. But Lexis have put it on their

254
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: yoke too. Yeah, maybe they're doing stuff that is working

255
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: and we just don't know.

256
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: Maybe not.

257
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 3: Maybe.

258
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: Look, I think it's good. I think the colors are

259
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: really cool. I think the design is a great update.

260
00:11:57,559 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: The lights look good. The screen I would have, honest

261
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: and I will stand by this. They need to do

262
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: two things with the screen. One they need to put

263
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: it behind the steering wheel, and they also need to

264
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: be able to have that center screen rotate like a BYD.

265
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, because that's a useful feature.

266
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 1: It's cool something sometimes you don't want to look at

267
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 1: shit in landscape all the time.

268
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 3: Actually, speaking of BYD, they launched they launched a new car.

269
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 3: It's basically their competitor to the Model Y. It was

270
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 3: called the It is called the Seal U. So basically, yeah,

271
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 3: Model Y competitor only announced with one engine varying or

272
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 3: one motor variant at the moment, two battery sizes one

273
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 3: around seventy kilo, what hour is one about ninety? This

274
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 3: thing was pretty cool so around the size of Arab

275
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 3: four looked sort of pretty spacious, big screen ahead of

276
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 3: the driver, big central display similar to the Atto three

277
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 3: chairs a platform with the Auto three. So I reckon

278
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: that's going to shake things up in Australia because it

279
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 3: finally gives people an opportun unity to buy an suv

280
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 3: that's electric. And I think it will be affordable in

281
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: the sense that it won't be a seventy thousand dollars tesla,

282
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 3: so I think it will definitely be stealing some sales

283
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 3: from them.

284
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. I think it looks good too. They

285
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: also had the normal seal there as well too, didn't they.

286
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and that actually looks good badly the Dolphin.

287
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 3: They even have another one called the Hahn, so they

288
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 3: have all sorts.

289
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 2: Of fun little names for them. I'm surprised they didn't

290
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: have you over Gordy for the reveal they're.

291
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: Saving They're saving me for the launch of the BYD Porpoise.

292
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,479
Speaker 2: The BYD Gordy. It's just their big bus.

293
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: I like to look at the Celia. I think it

294
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: looks pretty good.

295
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, and they have a lot of interest, like

296
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 2: the Standard was shock a block full of people. So

297
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 2: I think.

298
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 3: That the Chinese are really coming hard in Europe, so

299
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 3: that is a signal of their intentions for the States

300
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: as well. They're increasing market share here in Europe, and

301
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 3: I think that the plan is to really go hard

302
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 3: in the US as well, once they've proven Europe works.

303
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

304
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: One thing I noticed too with a lot of the

305
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 1: cars that they were launching is a lot of the

306
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: cars are mainly just for China and maybe Europe.

307
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know why they're doing that. So Votzagen

308
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 2: actually said that.

309
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 3: They're setting up joint partnerships in China with some of

310
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: the local car brands and that they will be designing

311
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: cars just for the Chinese market with just Chinese batteries.

312
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 2: And they're doing that.

313
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 3: Because if you sell an Etron RSGT in Australia for

314
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty grand and you sell that same

315
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 3: car in China for one hundred and fifty grand to

316
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,600
Speaker 3: stay competitive, you're diluting the brand because people are going

317
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 3: to get pissed off that it's one hundred grand cheaper

318
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 3: in China. What they do is they'll create a bespoke

319
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 3: model for China that uses the platform that is slightly

320
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 3: longer or shorter or whatever, and uses Chinese batteries, and

321
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 3: it gives them the chance you still have an Audi

322
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 3: logo on it, but then they can basically say, oh,

323
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 3: it's not the same car.

324
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 2: That's why it's cheaper, so they really want to go

325
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 2: for volume in China.

326
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 3: And they own something like twenty percent market share in

327
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 3: China compared to like five percent in the States, So

328
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 3: I think that, yeah, they really want to go hard

329
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 3: in China so they can bankroll the rest of the company.

330
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 3: They're investing one hundred and eighty billion dollars in stuff

331
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 3: over the next three years, so it is it is

332
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 3: a huge step forward.

333
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, BMW had some cool stuff too. I saw the

334
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: fuck please don't make me read this the BMW feel

335
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: like this needs to be said with a German accent.

336
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: Let me channel my Hogan's heroes. The BMW nlak class.

337
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: It's a Kazakhstani German.

338
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: I like you how much?

339
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 2: New class new class? Yeah? Fuck, why don't.

340
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: They just spell it new class? I saw that. I

341
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: saw the I think it was an I five. It

342
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: was a red I five that looked pretty cool. The

343
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: I four too, which I find it's so interesting between

344
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: those between those models, the fact that the I four

345
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: and the I five have completely different design language up

346
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: the front, like it it's so weird, it's so weird

347
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: to watch. But the I four had that big sort

348
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: of pig nose thing going on, whereas the I five

349
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: had the more kind of illuminated traditional.

350
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 3: Did you see with that new class they've gone with

351
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 3: a small grill again.

352
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's sort of just like so it is weird.

353
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 3: They're kind of just chopping and changing there with their designs.

354
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: So I don't know.

355
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 3: I like the look of it, and it's going to

356
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 3: basically signal where they're heading with the next generation of.

357
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 2: Cars, and look, if they have that sort of vibe

358
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: to them, I'm kind of lacking it.

359
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 3: I just think that experiment with the giant grill just

360
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 3: hasn't really worked, and I think they are quickly backing

361
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 3: away from that sort of stuff.

362
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: Even the new class grill I don't really like too much.

363
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: I still sort of like how they slightly evolve the

364
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: traditional one in the I five.

365
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you are. You are sounding quite hard

366
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 2: to please.

367
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 3: That's my sort of take on its.

368
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: Most people would call it realistic, I would say, some

369
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: would call what what they say in Germany. Some people

370
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: would call you a little bitch.

371
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 2: Did you see the Cooper of Dark Rebel?

372
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: No, look it up, Marty, look it up. Marty's here too.

373
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 1: By the way, I've got some I've got some I've

374
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: got some very exciting news. Why Marty's looking that up right?

375
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: Guess where Marty's gone next week? Oh so sore to me? Nam,

376
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: how dare you? Social media? Marty is off to his

377
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: very first car launch.

378
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 2: Watch out there you go.

379
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,959
Speaker 1: You're after the b y d C launch. Don't pretend

380
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: you're not excited. How dare you? He pretends he's not excited,

381
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 1: but he really wants to see what his cousins have.

382
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 2: Bill.

383
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, fucking look at that cool problem man, that is

384
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: that is the next Batman Bile. I'm loving what they're doing.

385
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: I like the even some of the newer some of

386
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: the other stuff that is understated, like they're still illuminating

387
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: the logos and stuff on the back. The real lights

388
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: look really cool. But that's what's that thing called the.

389
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 2: Rebel, the dark Rebel.

390
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we actually we extracted from them that it's

391
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 3: likely to share a platform with the next generation of

392
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 3: Cayman and Boxer, and according to them, it'll be priced.

393
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: Well under one hundred thousand euros, which.

394
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 3: Means this this could be a vehicle that is that

395
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 3: is basically a cheap version of a Cayman or a Boxer,

396
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 3: and you know, I just I just think it's great

397
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 3: when they're sharing some of these platforms around because it

398
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 3: means you get access to the fast stuff without having

399
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:00,479
Speaker 3: to spend mega dollars.

400
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: And you're right about the lights.

401
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 3: Actually, we're in Barcelona at the moment during some Coopra stuff,

402
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 3: and yesterday we checked out the Taviskan, which is their

403
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 3: new fully electric suv, and that thing is really cool.

404
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 3: That the lights they're stuck into that and the effort

405
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: they've put into that is great. It even has a

406
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 3: logo on the bonnet that lights up and it just

407
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 3: looks absolutely unreal. So yeah, it just show you that

408
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 3: they are going to a lot of efforts to design

409
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 3: these cars to really make them stand out. The same

410
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 3: the average buyer for a Coupra is like fifteen or

411
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 3: twenty years younger than an average Outy or Volkswagen buyer,

412
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 3: so they really are targeting a much younger person that

413
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 3: is wanting to get into that Volkswagen brand. And their

414
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,360
Speaker 3: idea is you start them off in a Coupra. As

415
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 3: they get older, they can work it out to a

416
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 3: Volkswagen or an Audi. So yeah, it's an interesting sort

417
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: of philosophy there.

418
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: They're sort of playing with I love to work your

419
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: way up to a Volkswagen, like start with the Batmobile,

420
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: but like will work your way up to a London taxi.

421
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,159
Speaker 2: Look, I might even just stay within Cooper. But I

422
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 2: think that they've got.

423
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,920
Speaker 3: All bases covered and they're trying to make sure that

424
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 3: at every price point along the way that they have

425
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 3: a product they can sell you.

426
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, you would definitely be in the Volkswagen era of

427
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: your life. I'd say definitely Audi.

428
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 2: I'd look kind of trendy in a Volkswagen Beetle.

429
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: I would have thought, yeah, not with that Polo, sir,

430
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,199
Speaker 1: that has got I mean, if they brought back the

431
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 1: Holden Statesman, I wish I saw the Mini Cooper and

432
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: also the Countryman ev launch and I I've got a

433
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 1: soft spot for me here. I quite enjoy them. I

434
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 1: love them. But I love the big LCD Senna screen

435
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 1: looks fantastic in at the circular screen and it's really

436
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 1: high res and it's customizable, and that's what mining is

437
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: all about. It's really quirky, and the design is usually

438
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 1: really bloody out there and cool, or it can be

439
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 1: sort of Martin sensible, but It's weird because they've sort

440
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 1: of made a minimalistic approach in the Mini this time,

441
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 1: but then they'll let the customizable stuff sort of really

442
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: speak for itself, you know what I mean.

443
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, with for many, I'm sort of not entirely

444
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: convinced the driving range isn't really there, and I think

445
00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 3: they're less even saying themselves this is going to be

446
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 3: just a city car. They're not expecting it to have

447
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 3: huge driving range. But I think the design is a

448
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 3: good sort of step forward. But you know, it's going

449
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 3: to be made in China. It's I think it's very

450
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 3: much a car that they've built to sell well in China.

451
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 3: I don't think they really care as much if it

452
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 3: doesn't sell well globally. But I think a lot of

453
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 3: these brands are really targeting China and just trying to.

454
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,199
Speaker 2: Get as much volume as they came out of that market.

455
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they look good. I mean, the problem

456
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 1: with the Mini at the moment, the Mini ev like

457
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 1: you said, the range is pretty pretty piss poor. But

458
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: they're a fun little car, but yeah, the range just

459
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 1: absolutely ruins it. Now, before we go on to what

460
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: is I think I know you've seen some cool stuff

461
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 1: at this at this little hu haam to show you up.

462
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 1: And I'm about to tell you my favorite launch, my

463
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,280
Speaker 1: favorite car launch, my favorite car announcement of the year.

464
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 1: But before we do that, is there anything anything that

465
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: we that you've seen that's impressed the pants off here?

466
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: Apart from the maid who just came in about two

467
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: seconds ago.

468
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 2: Ah, let me think.

469
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,159
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I was actually really impressed. This is one

470
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 3: of the weird things they did at group night. They

471
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 3: had acout six each prototype, but they you and tear it.

472
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, stop, what's what's group Night?

473
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 2: That was what I mentioned before the night?

474
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I thought it was this cut little thing

475
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: that all your little automotive journalists get together. Guys's green night.

476
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:55,640
Speaker 1: Let's form a waking chain. Oh that is Henry from

477
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: all to bon News. Show me your porkner class, show

478
00:22:59,119 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: you my brat.

479
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's the interior of the q SUCs on

480
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 3: looks unreal and it's it's basically debuting where out he's

481
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: going to be going with its interiors, because I've just

482
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 3: been kind of bored without his interiors recently, and I

483
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 3: think this is a huge step forward. So a big

484
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 3: curve display ahead of the driver. Yeah, so they're really

485
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 3: just focusing on tech and making it all sort of standout.

486
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 3: So I be came to give that a crack once.

487
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 3: Once it finally launches and it debuts the new new

488
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 3: electric platform for the Volkswagen Group as well, it will

489
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 3: be the one that's said with.

490
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 2: Other products in the group, so Bob be keanges to

491
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 2: how it also goes.

492
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: Two cool concepts I saw was like the Porsche Mission

493
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: X if they yeah, if they do another Batman that's

494
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: the Batman car.

495
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Mission X I think they debuted earlier in

496
00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 3: the year in June, but that looks unreal. And but

497
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 3: Porsche they listed recently, so they had an IPO that

498
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 3: they've had a huge cash injection, so they are spending

499
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 3: big on future products. They're electrifying, Boxed and Cayman. So

500
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 3: I think that that they really want to go hard

501
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 3: on leveraging that brand and being able to take some

502
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 3: of the platforms that they're developing for the entire group,

503
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 3: sticking a Porsche badge on them and just charging huge

504
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 3: dollars to make it all happen.

505
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: As a huge Cayman fan, if the photos I've seen

506
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 1: the renders I've seen are actually real. I'm going to

507
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 1: be massively disappointed. Massively.

508
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 3: I find a lot with a lot of the German renders,

509
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 3: they typically pretty spot on.

510
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 2: There. They got little German sleuths just in the shadows.

511
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: The other one the just real quick. The other one

512
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 1: that I saw was the Mercedes, that orange Mercedes.

513
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: Oh the I have to look at some Mercedes. I

514
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 2: think it's the CLA.

515
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: It was kind of like the vision.

516
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the CLA class concept.

517
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:08,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's effectively their Model three competitor. Mercedes is

518
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 3: really they've really lost their way a little bit. I

519
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 3: reckon all their cars kind of look the same. I

520
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 3: just don't know that it doesn't feel to me like

521
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 3: they have a real sort of plan, and that's a

522
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 3: little bit concerning. So this this looks better than what

523
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 3: I've seen previously from Mercedes, but a lot of their

524
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 3: stuff was just.

525
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 2: Starting to look and feel all the exact same.

526
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, did they did they confirm they're

527
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: chucking the V eight back in the the.

528
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 2: C sixty three. Now they've confirmed that they're not. There

529
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 2: was arena that they were and then they're now said no, no, no,

530
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 2: they're actually just going to stick over.

531
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no, now we fucked it.

532
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: Nah no worry about it, mate, no worry about it. No,

533
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: we're not doing that. So yeah, all.

534
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 2: Right, that's a big mistake.

535
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 1: Do you know what's not a big mistake? Do you

536
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 1: know what's the greatest idea in the last twenty years

537
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 1: in order motive? Bringing back the Toyota century and bringing

538
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: it as an suv?

539
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 2: Is it? Thing is? And with sliding doors?

540
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: I love it. By the way, that's an option. You

541
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: don't have to have the sliding door.

542
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 2: It's just it is. Has dropped my oh drop? Can you?

543
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: Yeah? Sorry? And that's what happens when the maid is

544
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 1: under the desk. Let's see it just Rosa, Rosa, keep

545
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: it down. I'm trying to make a podcast there. That's

546
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,359
Speaker 1: my that's a weird thing about my mum. Right, whenever

547
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: she her cleaning lady is Italian, and whenever like she

548
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,239
Speaker 1: speaks to a cleaning lady, she somehow just gets an

549
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:41,719
Speaker 1: Italian accent. And it's so awkward. It's so bad and bloody.

550
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: Skirting bulge, need need a bit of a gallon over

551
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: and Rosa, what.

552
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:46,399
Speaker 2: Are you doing?

553
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: A dodger? I am the curtains. What are you doing

554
00:26:54,480 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 1: fucking right, Jesus. Anyway, the Toyota Century SUV. I think

555
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: it looks great. I think it looks fantastic. That is

556
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: a terrible photo, but the I think everything about it's

557
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 1: really cool. I would have liked to have seen them

558
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,120
Speaker 1: put a V eight in this thing, but instead it's

559
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: the V six plug in hybrid, right, so three.

560
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 3: Point five liter V six plug in hybrid. I think

561
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 3: it's the engine they use in the undra from memory,

562
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 3: they use a FOURCELM No, I'm pretty sure that's one

563
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 3: they used in tundra.

564
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,360
Speaker 1: So I thought it was Alexis.

565
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they.

566
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 3: Used an Alexis as well, but it actually sounds good

567
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 3: in the tundra. So yeah, it's It is just a

568
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,959
Speaker 3: crazy looking thing, isn't it.

569
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know. I just wonder who buys these things.

570
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 2: People will just yeah, it's just good.

571
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: I just need to judge. Look, it's I need to

572
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: go down Paramatta Road looking like an Asian emperor.

573
00:27:55,480 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a just an Asian plument.

574
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: It's a gangster car.

575
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

576
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: I would choose this over a rolls Rose any day.

577
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is. It is full on love.

578
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 1: Everything about it, love, how the bird is everywhere. Just

579
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 1: they've they've done to that bird what Rolls Royce did

580
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: to the Spirit of Ecstasy. They're just like, in fact,

581
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: that's what I want to see in the next Mortal Kombat.

582
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: I want to see the bird versus the Spirit of Ecstasy.

583
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 2: That would be funny.

584
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I'm going to be doing something very

585
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 3: exciting that I can't talk about for a little while.

586
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 2: Why not, it's under embargo. Let's just say it relates

587
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 2: to a brand that we've been speaking about. That's there.

588
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 2: We goes. That narrows it down.

589
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: Someone's made friends. Sorry, I'm getting distracted. We got a message.

Speaker 1: absolutely missed the point of the cheviny sheer is. You

626
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: know what's crazy when you put out a video like this,

627
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: it's just a little snippet, like it's a tiny snippet

628
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: of the thing. So I guess people have sort of

629
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: seen it as out of context, like it's a dumb

630
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: little bit that mean you did and somehow it's sort

631
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: of caught on fire a little bit.

632
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 3: But some of the comments, Yeah, if your name is Miles,

633
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 3: I'm kind of just not listening to whatever you're saying anyway.

634
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks Miles from nowhere. Oh look at this guy, Paul,

635
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: You're dead wrong. Pick a new career. One guy who's

636
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: like one guy who's like you wouldn't know what you're

637
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: talking about. Pick a new career. It's like, all right, bro,

638
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: you sit on your fucking chair and Port Macquarie or

639
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: wherever you're from. You're like, oh, oh bloody, I haven't work.

640
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: Shin shah. I got hit in the head with a

641
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: brick and so just sit here on the couch. I'm

642
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: pretty good during the AM. I can usually sort of

643
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: pick on me phone and write a couple of comments

644
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 1: on me phone, but usually be after lunch. I'll probably

645
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: just sit on the couch and piss myself.

646
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty much him.

647
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 3: We've got a few emails as well, so this one

648
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 3: is from Hendrix says gooday guys.

649
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 2: First off, just want to say I love the podcast.

650
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 2: It's fantastic on your champ.

651
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 3: My mum, who has to commute to Sydney from Canberra

652
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 3: twice a week, mentions me that she doesn't have anything

653
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 3: new to listen to on the drive.

654
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: Ladies, and we got King of the Mills right here.

655
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: If you're ever going to give her a podcast, I'll

656
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: tell you what. Give her one. Listen to Paul marreck

657
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: on this podcast and you will never lose your mum again.

658
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: You just follow the yelling drip road.

659
00:32:58,120 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 3: Oh god.

660
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 2: And then he said now loves it and can't get enough. Yeah,

661
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 2: I feel very bad for it.

662
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: And then he also said, I thought i'd ask a

663
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 3: question about Chinese made cars based on what you've seen

664
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 3: so far. If it was a blind test, you reckon,

665
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 3: you could tell the difference between a Chinese made car

666
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 3: and one made somewhere like Germany or Japan. What's your

667
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 3: opinion on brands starting to manufacture their cars in China?

668
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 3: And do you reckon the entire car industry will follow

669
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 3: every other industry and move everything China. Anyway, guys love

670
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 3: the show, keep it up and please trying not to

671
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 3: get sued again. Yeah, I'm sure your lawyers want to

672
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 3: break Yes, definitely, so yeah, yeah, exactly so blind tests,

673
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 3: I reckon.

674
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 2: Look, I think just because I do this a lot,

675
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 2: I would be able to tell the difference.

676
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 3: But I think if you've got an average person and

677
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 3: you put them in a car, they wouldn't be able

678
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 3: to tell the difference.

679
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 2: That's my opinion. What do you think to me?

680
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: I think absolutely you could tell the difference. I feel

681
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: like if we put I don't know, a German may car,

682
00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: maybe like a Q five next to know, what about

683
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 1: a Porsche macarn next to say Haval, I think you'd

684
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: be able to tell the difference. Right, you could just

685
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: sit in the car and you'd be like, well, the

686
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 1: Haval's steering wheel is in like position. Wise, it's in

687
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: the oddest place ever. Before you even drive the thing,

688
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: It's like it's a thin steering wheel. You can get

689
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: a in an a macarm for instance, And.

690
00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 3: No, do I ever run your sort of fingers along

691
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 3: that you'd be able to tell the difference.

692
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 2: I would have thought, how does that go?

693
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: Give me a bit of a description. Let me see

694
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: your rim rubbing looks like you've done a bit of it.

695
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the conditioner bottle in the background. What

696
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: have you been up to?

697
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,879
Speaker 3: But the other question about manufacturing in China doesn't bother

698
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 3: me pretty much. Everything's manufactured in China. Yeah, as long

699
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 3: as it is cheaper for it, then that's fine. But

700
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 3: the problem is when they manufacture something in Germany and

701
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 3: going to manufacturing in China and it's ten grand more expensive,

702
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 3: it's like, well, there's.

703
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 2: Only one person winning from that question. It's not me.

704
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 2: So yeah.

705
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: Having said that, I think I think Chinese made brands

706
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: are getting better. I mean, when haval Like launched on

707
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: the scene, I didn't see I mean, there was room

708
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: for improvement, but it wasn't that bad at all. We've

709
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: seen when MG came on the on the scene, they

710
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: for me, they had a lot of a lot of

711
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: work to be done. What they're coming out with lately

712
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: is I mean, the the MG four is quite solid.

713
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 1: The stuff that they debuted at the munch at the

714
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: Munich Motor Show. Looks incredible. That the cyber stuff wow, oy.

715
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 2: In c Yeah, that's that's pretty cool.

716
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: That's cool just on name alone.

717
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

718
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:48,839

764
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 2: From drives Lawyers.

765
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, we thought this would be a fun little podcast,

766
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: just to do a bit of a check in. Obviously

767
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 1: it's never ideal when you're on zoom and I'm here,

768
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: but we thought the cars looked interesting enough to talk

769
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: about it, and they certainly do. Is that the one

770
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 1: motor show do you reckon of the year? I was

771
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: going to say it could be the Tokyo or Detroit

772
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,959
Speaker 1: Motor Show, but what's what's the big one? You would

773
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,280
Speaker 1: save the calendar year where all the oh, the Geneva

774
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: Motor Show as well. Yeah, the where you kind of

775
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: go all right, this is the one where we know

776
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: everyone's just going to be going bang with the.

777
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 2: Well, this is the thing.

778
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 3: Motor shows are pretty much dead, so Detroit has scaled down,

779
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 3: The LA Motor Show is pretty much dead. New York

780
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 3: motor shows kind of a non event. Geneva Motor Show

781
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: is dead. The next Geneva Motor Show is actually going

782
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 3: to be in Guitar, which.

783
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 2: Was bizarre thing in the world.

784
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 3: And then Frankfurt Motor Show used to used to basically

785
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 3: alternate with with.

786
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 2: Paris and then Paris is on.

787
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think that motor shows as we know

788
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 3: them are very much gone. But it's going to be

789
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 3: more of this style of thing where we see activations

790
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 3: and it's going to be groups of brands that get

791
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 3: together as opposed to all of the brands. So yeah,

792
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't think we're going to see

793
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 3: the traditional motor show back anytime soon.

794
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 1: One thing I did notice with and I know we've

795
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 1: sort of you've already touched on this, but whether you

796
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 1: like it or not, we're going to what ev world

797
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 1: like it is happening. They're all doing it. They're all

798
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: doing it.

799
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're all talking electric vehicles and and that seems

800
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,399
Speaker 3: to very much be the future here.

801
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 2: And that's the problem.

802
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,880
Speaker 3: I mean, if you want an internal combustion car, I

803
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 3: mean you just may not be able to buy one.

804
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 3: If they're all just manufacturing EPs. It just means no

805
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:15,720
Speaker 3: one's really going to be concentrating on internal combustion cars.

806
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 3: So we'll see where that sort of leads us. But yeah,

807
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:20,479
Speaker 3: it's very much going down that path.

808
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: I think I better leave you to it. The maids

809
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: on the bed and I think she said something about

810
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:25,960
