I’d buy the 300cc petrol version then you can have a day out with no worries. It looks a very well thought out little car, I remember the people next door had an original
There is no reason Americans can't buy cheap $25,000 cars that are cheap to operate and cheap to insure. They just view cars as status symbols. That is why I drive a 2002 Saturn.
Very cool to have a glimpse into the sound design process and what the manufacturers are thinking
Thanks for watching! EVs have meant a lot of innovation in recent years in all aspects of what a car is and what it can be. What sound would you choose for your own EV?
Where are the big car parkings outside of the city center where everyone who needs to get to Paris by car can leave their vehicle to change to public transport? This is a needed soliton during the time of transition, until public transport is available in the outskirts. However, a certain portion of people living in villages close by will always need to come by car at least to the outskirts, so it is also needed in the future. Same issue as in cities like Barcelona. A city center without cars is a great concept, absolutely favourable.
There are over 100,000 car parking spots in train stations in the suburbs, and most people in the suburbs live close enough to the nearest train station to be able to realistically get there without requiring a car.
Don't ever tslk. DTM international series depends on sub-saharan 🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂
Since most people are right handed, it makes sense to have a left handed drive with a manual transmission. It’s easier to shift with your dominant hand. Just saying from Hawaii.
the build quality of suzuki is very power though it has refined engine sooner than now tata will dominate the market
CHINESE ARE MORE CREATIVE AND people must learn countries are the same and they all design and build their innovations. What is more factual is the CHINESE ARE OPEN AND ANYONE CAN IMPROVE ANYTHING.
I'm in favor of banning cars entirely from the center of Paris.
It won't work in the EU.
I couldn't get a job without a car, I couldn't afford a car without a job. Same goes with the jobs I didn't get because of unrealistic experience. America, My America is no more.
Bye is no privet and junk
I am a woman who loves and has passion for cars, and I love SuperCar Blondie. Suportahantaka❤
This is great. My father lived in Paris for years and never owned a car. When I went to visit we took the metro out to the burbs to rent a car to tour the countryside.
Owning and operating a car costs about $1000 a month these days. When your gross income is only $20k, having a car will utterly destroy your life. I love my bike!
who cares. i haven't bought a new car since 1990. used cars are still affordable. thats the only kind i will get, especially since i drive manual shift. never paid more than $1000 for one. maintenance and insurance on older cars is affordable. so i disagree with the statements. if you want a new car, most people just get a loan, and make payments.
You want one of your most valued landmarks as a traffic circle?
The lawyer is such a bullshitter haha. Also very tendentious clikbait title @DW REV
Stop the car snowball system!!! Revolution!!!
"Insurance companies report record-breaking profits..." "US automakers reported solid profits that increased over time ..." Anyone see the theme here? It's not rising production costs. It's not labor. It's not supply chains. It is simple capitalist corporate greed.
BTW - the long-term solution is reversal of federal policies that promote suburb and exurb development and returning to dumping money into the cities - where you HAVE mass transit, sufficient potential density to support businesses and transit, and a reduced need for a personal car.
Es necesario una rebaja en costos. Eso vendría con la masificacikn
Cars in the US are still cheaper than in europe. A Golf with automatic transmission and 150HP is ~35.000-40.000€ in Austria. And thats not fully specced. Fuel is also 20-30% more expensive and we pay extra taxes depending on how much CO2 your car emmits and how many HP it has. The maintenance is as expensive as everywhere else here. So...i think its not so bad in the US for car owners - even if it got more expensive..
14% insurance increase cost in one year and 20% on the next year is not 34% increase. It is a 36.8% increase.
I can bet that all those people who complain that there is too many bikes would swear up and down if they were to be stuck for hours in a massive car traffic that would happen with more cars then bicycles,
just a reminder: cities aren't loud, cars are loud
whatever we can do to make cities more walkable & liveable, with as few cars as possible, or even car-free, I'm all for it.
If you close down all the shops in the city center then you will eliminate all the vans that deliver stock to the shops as well as eliminate all the people getting in the way who are going there to go shopping. Just have online shopping. And have remote working where ever it's possible, so that you don't have so many people commuting. If people do manual work and they can't work from home, try to replace them with an automated AI robot, so that their job no longer exists, so no more commuting to work. If you can eliminate the reason why people are traveling around the city, then you will eliminate the traffic. But if people still have a reason to travel, then you are simply making peoples lives more difficult for the sake of just having the appearance of going green.
How would making trips easier somehow be making people lives more difficult?...
Those who live outside of Paris can use their cars tl get to nearest metro or tram or bus stop and use public transport within the city centers. If it is possible in Amsterdam why not in Paris ?
I am an avid cyclist but as a pedestrian, walking in many urban centers, I absolutely despise the arrogance of most cyclists. Nowhere is this more evident than in The Netherlands where the cyclists are essentially apathetic bullies. Bikes parked everywhere on the sidewalk, you have to walk around them and all of a sudden, 'ring, ring' from a 'look-how-important-I-am' cyclist. They simply do not see why the pedestrian has to walk elsewhere. Nope. Doesn't matter, bike lane or road, pedestrians are never comfortable there. Environmental virtue-seekers drive me crazy. I also feel for the motorists. Rent too expensive? Live elsewhere. Money you save on rent, you inevitably have to pay in parking. Sure, fair deal...these pontificating academics 'know' what they are doing, being the types to live in the real world (cue eye rolling).
Most important thing is protecting the humble income of American CEO's...
It called price gouging and greed.😢😢
We drive on the right. Hence we have the Right of way. I have never heard of the Left of way.
Though people who drive on the left can still have the right of way. Right? 😉
These massive battery are exploding everywhere, in africa its super hot, dont you think the risk is even higher for explosion of batteries ?
That's definitely an important safety concern. Kiira Motors says the Kayoola uses two separate battery packs, allowing one to charge while the other discharges. In theory, that could reduce the thermal stress on the batteries. The vehicle's control unit is also supposed to monitor battery cell temperature, so let's hope that will reduce the risk of explosion.
Imagine if 10% of automobile spending was invested in public transportation instead. Here in Ottawa, that would be an additional $1 billion just from estimates of household spending. This is a lot more than the capital spending on the major expansion that we are currently doing.
That really would be a dream come true for fans of public transport. How is the O-Train extension coming along, btw?
@@DWREV It seems to be going fine in the east end. We are still dealing with performance issues because our city and country forgot how to build rails.
Very proud of Paris making this change! it is necessary
I think it's interesting that regardless of which side of the vehicle that the steering wheel is on, the accelerator pedal is to the right of the brake pedal. But that's just me, I guess.
"Turn the city into a museum, where life is no longer permitted." What😂 .. the more people walking and cycling .. the more trees and parks. The more there's life
I will stick to my $17,400 Kia Soul.
The right Solutions are already being implemented, though it would be better if everyone was on board and the implementation was faster
Instead of doubling the ticket price cars should've been completely banned for Olympics duration
Lol the lawyer hiding behind common and poor people to get his point about cars across
The problem here are cyclists. Pedestrians are always worried about being hit. It almost happened to us in Paris earlier this month, outside of bike lanes! Dedicating huge bike lanes takes away from road traffic, which increases traffic and emissions. Reduce the size of bike lanes and police their conduct better!
Americans are cucked for cars 😂
Between all the money printing and the EPA, they have absolutely decimated the US car industry. I live about 2 hours from Indianapolis. i make 60k gross a year and theres no way i could afford a car payment.
So how do you get around?
@@DWREV I have a 2023 z125 pro motorcycle, got it used with 200miles on it for $3000 it gets 100mpg.
I'm in two minds about this. I lived in Paris (or rather, an affluent nearby suburb) for four years. Certainly, many areas in the centre have been greatly improved through pedestrianisation and my own neighbourhood had superb public transport options, but the governance issue mentioned and problem of punitive ecology are very real - boxing out those in distant, poorer neighbourhoods, who are obliged to use their car because of poor or over-saturated mass transit is something that needs to be addressed, perhaps by making allowances for those living further afield. Otherwise, the effect can be deeply classist and limiting for people already struggling. On the other hand, taxing SUVs does seem to make a lot of sense, as it's a safety and spatial issue, as well as an environmental one. Large SUVs and trucks are significantly more dangerous to pedestrians and they occupy much-needed space in the centre, at a time when families are statistically much smaller than before. It's illogical.
People in poorer neighborhoods can't afford the cost of car trips to dense cities, people using a car in Paris today are mostly wealthy people whose trip doesn't actually require a car. In most of the suburbs, streets are built so that cars are often the only safe option to move around: it makes everyday trips way more expensive than they could/should be, cities much more dangerous and polluted than they could/should be, and basically prevents anyone who can't drive a car, whether too young, too poor, too old, or with an important health issue, to freely move around on their own.
One of my friends is working for the Paralympics committee and had to conclude that for the Olympics in Paris he will need a bunch of cars since its was very impossible for disabled to use the public transport. Thing is that banning cars and expecting all people to be dependent on only foot, bike and public transport is under current economic systems not very realistic and will create a lot of backlash and polarization. I live in the city Gent (with a Parisian partner) where they already longer implement these policies and it seems that there are a lot of side effect on trying to create a cycling city. First of all I am a cycling advocate and almost never use a car but I am also a blue colored worker and am a team leader. In my work I also a lot in contact with less privileged people. I have the impression that these policies are made by white colored workers for white colored workers and in some case might even cause certain groups of people even to be more car dependent. Inner cities still need a lot of services: from technicians to shop workers, to waiters to service desk employees but the wages that these jobs give do not really allow them to actually live in the inner city. You can also see that the housing prices around suburban train stations also get more and more expensive. Last week in Gent there have been counting cyclists an a rainy day and they noticed a decrease of 25%. An article stated that more people where working from home. Wel as a blue colored worker that is just not possible: it does not matter if there are hailstorms, bus strikes or train breakdowns. You are supposed to go to your job or you will not be payed or there will be deductions from holidays. This will al give the effect that a lot of blue colored worker still will make the choice being dependent on their car. An other factor is that Paris and Gent still are very happy to attract tourists and organize all kinds of events or attract people to go shopping in the inner city. That also is giving a lot of competition for transport, parking spots and housing for the people living/working there . Squares are use for events Gent while they might as well be more used for making playgrounds for kids. Roads are blocked and parking spots are removed making life for technicians and transport people very difficult, doing dangerous things and if they make some mistakes they also have to pay the fine. This is making also questions for whom these policies actually are made. And without addressing the issue of housing and increasing public transport and finding solutions for blue colored workers I think it will only create more polarization and risking a reverse and bringing pro car advocating politicians into power.
This documentary is a biased scandal.
I don't like the traditional Chinese BGM
This is the most conservative and uninformed video I have seen in a very very long time.
Many Americans are idiots. Automobile expenses doesn't have to be higher than $400 per month. Why someone needs to have pick up truck 5.7 engine that cost 70.000 and make 15 mi per gallon?
