00:37
Good morning, Harrison.
00:38
Look at this.
00:39
The sun is out, we're on Brighton seafront.
00:42
What a lovely start to the day.
00:44
We're here at the site for the London to Brighton to Paris electric vehicle rally.
00:50
We are.
00:51
This is where the E-Village is actually going to be.
00:53
So Bill, what is the E-Village?
00:54
What is going on down here for the people that don't yet know?
00:58
We are running the Europe's first international electric vehicle rally.
01:05
So we're starting at Westminster, coming all the way down.
01:08
This is on Saturday the 1st of July.
01:11
We're going to then make sure that all of our entries, of which we've got 72 team members,
01:18
ready to take part in their vehicles.
01:20
Motorcycles, cars, vans, commercial vehicles, self-builds.
01:25
Championing one thing, which is energy conservation and how you can better drive an electric vehicle.
01:29
So we want to conserve energy from London to Brighton.
01:33
Yeah, and once we get down into Brighton, what's the plan?
01:35
What's going on down here?
01:36
I know you've booked out the entire of Madeira Drive.
01:39
So what is going on down here, Bill?
01:41
So here I'm pretty much standing at where we've got two of our big partners.
01:46
Motability Operations and EDF are going to have stands and stalls here,
01:51
showing the best in sustainable technologies and how any ability,
01:55
any person can get into an EV and actually drive an EV.
01:58
So there'll be some really informative chats from Motability Operations.
02:01
Now you said get into an EV.
02:02
Can we drive EVs down here?
02:04
Can we test drive?
02:05
Absolutely.
02:06
There's going to be a test drive area courtesy of Motability
02:09
and another partner, which we're about to announce.
02:12
So stay tuned, folks.
02:13
We're going to be doing another test drive from the top of Madeira Drive
02:18
on a three, is it three, three and a half mile, three mile test drive on the day.
02:22
Book it in, drive an EV for the first time.
02:25
We're going to chauffeur them down to here
02:27
so that you'll be able to pick up your test drive just outside the Brighton Zip.
02:30
Who can do that?
02:31
Is it anyone?
02:32
Do you have to book?
02:32
Anyone.
02:33
Come early on the day.
02:35
What time does it start?
02:35
The E-Village opens at nine o'clock in the morning.
02:37
OK.
02:38
We then have entertainment.
02:41
We've got stages, live music, DJs.
02:44
The contestants from London will start arriving around 11 o'clock in the morning.
02:48
OK.
02:49
We have coffees and pastries and things at Soho House, our partners.
02:53
And then we'll offer the whole of Madeira Drive up for the best in EV development.
03:00
Scooters, bikes, cars, everything.
03:03
There's kind of charging facilities that make EV possible.
03:06
Amazing.
03:06
I can't wait.
03:07
So anyone that wants to come along, they just walk along.
03:09
They don't need to book.
03:09
They don't need to register.
03:11
Nothing.
03:11
Free of charge.
03:12
Be here.
03:13
We're doing some giveaways.
03:14
We've got a really nice kind of sound system.
03:16
Like I say, there's some live music as well.
03:18
But it's about experience.
03:19
It's about seeing what EVs do for you.
03:21
How you can charge them.
03:22
We've got some great partners we're charging.
03:25
And we want to make sure that all the innovations from the companies like Warbox
03:31
are doing with their technologies.
03:33
But also we've got other ones on display as well
03:35
so that it can show any abilities any age can get involved.
03:38
And it's about how you get into a vehicle.
03:41
I don't care.
03:42
This isn't necessarily about EV enthusiasts.
03:44
This is about EV enthusiasm.
03:47
Okay.
03:47
We've got the Soho House send-off happening up here.
03:50
So people will be raising glasses.
03:53
Waving their flags.
03:54
In the glorious sunshine, waving their flags.
03:56
And then as the cars come past here,
03:59
they'll be off to New Haven to the ferry,
04:02
which is 11 o'clock in the evening on Saturday the 1st.
04:06
So the ferry leaves at 11 o'clock.
04:09
But what a send-off.
04:09
If it's a sunny warm evening coming along Brighton Seafront,
04:13
everyone's had a glass of something.
04:14
Oh, it's going to be lovely.
04:15
Just to kind of celebrate all things EV.
04:18
You know, like they say, and to quote a friend of mine,
04:21
the sun always shines on EV.
04:23
Oh, on that note, I think we've got to leave it there.
04:26
Thank you very much.
04:27
Looking forward to it.
04:28
So this is where we'll be on Saturday the 1st of July.
04:31
That's the view you'll see.
04:32
The Palace Pier is a landmark for the vehicles to come through.
04:35
We have a finish arch spanning Madeira Drive.
04:37
So all those who come down from 9 o'clock in the morning
04:39
on the 1st of July will see the vehicles come in.
04:43
They should be here sort of 10, 30, 11 o'clock onwards.
04:46
There's kids entertainment, there's music,
04:48
there's DJs, there's giveaways.
04:51
It's a really lovely experience for those people
04:53
who are interested or just kind of curious about EVs
04:56
and how they can bring them into their lives.
04:58
So this is it.
05:00
It's going to be a glorious day like it kind of is today.
05:03
I can guarantee it on the 1st of July.
05:05
And then for those lucky enough to have entered and sponsored,
05:08
they'll be having an event at Soho House here
05:12
and with food and drink to celebrate
05:14
what is the first international London to Brighton to Paris
05:18
electric vehicle rally on Saturday the 1st of July.
05:34
If you imagine Nigel Havers and Jason Statham having a child,
05:38
this is what the child would look like.
05:40
It's a sexy child.
05:41
This is the Jaguar I-Pace EV.
05:44
This is pretty much what Tesla conversion therapy looks like.
05:55
So, Harrison.
05:56
Hello.
05:57
We're doing the second car for Jaguar.
06:00
We're doing the second car.
06:02
What do you think?
06:04
Tell me.
06:05
I mean, it's hardly a demure, quiet colour.
06:09
I couldn't have picked any brighter, could I?
06:11
So we are here with the fabulous Nissan Ariya
06:15
and it is genuinely a very good car.
06:31
This is a car for the trailblazers of EV adopters.
06:36
Oh, that's the nicest thing.
06:38
Did you bring champagne, darling?
06:39
I did. I've got a hot toddy in the boot.
06:41
The new Maxxis T90.
06:51
Gosh, it's a very long story,
06:53
but to make it short and not boring,
06:56
I've been flying now for 55 years
06:59
and I never imagined I would ever fly in an electric aeroplane.
07:03
Here we go.
07:03
So quiet.
07:04
Yeah.
07:29
Yeah.
07:33
Woo!
07:37
Yeah.
