01:52
It's their saloon sedan, fastback.
01:54
They say it's got some SUV hints to it as well, look, you're not really know.
01:59
Maybe it sits a little bit higher with its seven inches or 18 centimetres of ground clearance,
02:04
but still it is a big Volvo saloon sedan.
02:08
Fastback though, so you can open up that boot and put the back seats flat.
02:11
It's got 680 horsepower in its top trim, 106 kilowatt hour battery, 800 volt architecture,
02:17
up to 350 kilowatt DC fast charging.
02:20
They say stop for 10 minutes and you'll add 186 miles.
02:24
Long vehicle, this five meters long, it's got LiDAR and loads of sensors, very, very safe.
02:29
Runs Google as well with Gemini, their AI, which I use quite a lot of because I pay for
02:33
the Google One package because of all the storage and stuff and it's very good.
02:37
And so looking forward to that vehicle, Mercedes has revealed the interior of the
02:41
new GLC ahead of the full launch soon.
02:45
It has a one meter wide or 40 inch wide hyperscreen, biggest screen they've put in a car.
02:52

02:54
South Korea is protesting the US.
02:57
The immigration officials raided a Hyundai site in Georgia yesterday and detained hundreds
03:03
of workers over the suspicion that they didn't have all the correct paperwork,
03:08
whether they were coming in for a business meeting and were not on the right kind
03:12
of visa waiver program or we don't know the immigration officials taking people away
03:18
in zip tied handcuffs.
03:20

Sweden's numbers for plugins were again really good.
03:43
60% last month in August.
03:45
Year to date, it's about 61%.
03:47
Sweden, not a massive car market in terms of the overall numbers,
03:51
but a really good EV very quickly following Norway.
03:54
In the UK, though, we are a big car market.
03:57
Almost 300,000 EVs have been sold so far this year.
04:01
Purebev share 26.5% now last month.
04:06
Year to date, it's about 22%.
04:08
And so, you know, 28% is the target that we're going for this year with our mandate.
04:13
And no one paid fines last year.
04:16
We got last year's in the books.
04:18
And so that's a big number.
04:20
And we said a lot of EVs here as well.
04:22
We also the government grant just kicked in.
04:24
So that's probably going to affect September's numbers.
04:26
Tesla's UK data was rebounding after a big July slump.

Again, a company that's been just desperate for some good news headlines
04:40
after some 30, 40, 50% sales declines in some European countries.
04:46
Tesla's gig at Texas looks like it's going to be getting an onsite delivery centre.
04:52
That's really cool, actually, a dedicated customer delivery centre in Texas.

05:00
especially for Tesla fans that want to make almost a pilgrimage
05:03
to go and see where the vehicle was made.
