00:00It's not a national park. It's a national park.

00:03But it's not a national park.

00:05It's a national park.

00:06For many people, it's not a national park.

00:08So, we're not going to be able to go to a national park

00:10and get this map of the local forestry balance.

00:14This is the second biggest forestry balance

00:17that we've seen in the world.

00:18It's going to be the first big forestry balance

00:20that we'll ever see in the world.

00:22OK, good.

00:23All right, I've got some wonderful music going on here.

00:26It just I've got one little sprinkle of it in the room.

00:32I love the jazz on this part in that.

00:35The plan on the set for this is generally to

00:37talk about our summer preparing of the project

00:39because I love summer.

00:40So just to do an exciting film I'm

00:43going to be playing decorations.

00:46So typically I'm going to play decorative items and things

01:20Can we get a picture?

01:21I love a picture.

01:23I love a picture.

01:24Oh, that's cute.

01:25Can we get a picture?

01:26I love a picture.

01:27It's the best thing ever.

01:29Oh, this is so cute.

01:32I'm in love.

01:33I love you.

01:34I'm in love.

01:35What's the first thing you want to talk about?

01:36I think that the world is beautiful,

01:38just like it is today.

01:40So what I want to talk about is,

01:42is how we can do something

01:44that I'm not used to.

01:46So I got an idea.

01:47I'm going to go and make my own

01:49We're told new motors are more efficient than what's currently used in the BZ-4X,

02:19but interestingly all-wheel drive models use two permanent magnet motors, and neither

02:24of them have an axle disconnect.

02:26That's a strange decision, since using one induction motor or an axle disconnect would

02:31boost efficiency and range, especially during long-distance highway drives.

03:06The BZ-4X has two permanent magnet motors, and one axle disconnect, which means the BZ-4X

03:13is more efficient than the BZ-4X.

03:16The BZ-4X has two permanent magnet motors, and one axle disconnect, which means the BZ-4X

03:23is more efficient than the BZ-4X.

03:26The BZ-4X has two permanent magnet motors, and one axle disconnect, which means the BZ-4X

03:33is more efficient than the BZ-4X.

03:37The BZ-4X has two permanent magnet motors, and one axle disconnect, which means the BZ-4X

03:44is more efficient than the BZ-4X.

03:47Please stand for the awarding of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

04:08I thank you very much I appreciate it.

04:10This is the last corner, this is the final corner for the Grand Prix of Turkey.

04:16If I have to say something I don't think I'll be able to say that.

04:19And I'm happy to tell you this, this is the only time I have been able to buy an electric car.
