  • bonjour and welcome to Paris to what is, quite literally, the world's French ist motor show.

  • And what could be more friends than loitering between the legs of a giant Persia lion?

  • I'll leave that image with you, all right, so make your way through.

  • We start with a bang with a car that I think is my favorite from the Paris Motor Show.

  • Hands down its Persie's concept is called the e Legend, and it's a car that is autonomous.

  • It's electric, like most concept cars are these days, but it's also clothed in the most beautiful referee bodywork I've ever seen.

  • It harks back to the 504 crew paper.

  • People have said it looks like other things, like the Missus and I.

  • D.

  • X concept.

  • Someone even said the Bullitt Mustang earlier, although I'm not sure about that, but need we read into it too much?

  • It's a beautiful piece of design.

  • It's Pirjo, signaling that it's got an E v future that it's embracing autonomous technology.

  • But it's having some fun.

  • It's getting our attentions, is building something cool, and if you look around here, there's more people looking at this car than anywhere else.

  • in the show.

  • It's just precise and beautiful.

  • And hats off to Jill Vidal, who's the head designer who's made this thing happened.

  • Come around here, we'll see.

  • We can stick the stick, the camera in the door here because the interior is something pretty special as well.

  • There's people in there right now, but you'll see the teal velour on the seats, which is something I always look for in a car.

  • Now the steering wheel is folded away, as is the dashboard.

  • That's because it's in autonomous mode, and there's an enormous screen down there by your feet so you can catch up in your Netflix or your social media.

  • Now, when you want to drive yourself well, the wheel comes out of the dash.

  • You can take hold of it.

  • It's got 450 horsepower.

  • It should be fun to drive.

  • And I like this approach by Persia.

  • It's saying we've got the technology.

  • We can build electric cars, we can build autonomous cars, but people ain't gonna buy them unless they look cool.

  • What a thing.

  • Right over to Renno, another all electric autonomous concept of something quite different.

  • This is their take on what the autonomous car of the future is going to look like and it's quite a lot longer.

  • It's called the Easy Ultimate On Dhe.

  • It is basically a vision of what a luxury car is going to look like.

  • It's long as a Rolls Royce Phantom.

  • It's lower than a meaning in there.

  • You've got seating for three people.

  • You've got room on the floor.

  • You've got marble on the rules.

  • Perhaps not the best material for building on efficient car.

  • But, hey, who am I to question it?

  • And then maybe a little question over the ground clearance.

  • If you could just get a look at the wheel down there, you've got roughly 3 to 4 millimeters.

  • My problem is, yet it's all well and good.

  • Would I like to be whisked toe work sitting in the back of that?

  • Yes, I would.

  • Are they ever gonna make these cars?

  • And they will, because they're just so enormous.

  • You can only fit about three of them in central London and only capture.

  • It doesn't make much sense.

  • Yes.

  • Look at this.

  • This is a car are falling in love with completely, just from seeing pictures of it.

  • The new Suzuki Jimmy.

  • And this is the first time I've seen it in the flesh.

  • And if it's possible, I think I might love it even more.

  • It's just a perfect piece of design.

  • Isn't it?

  • Squared off like a little Tonka toy?

  • Little Mini Mercedes G Class.

  • It's not sophisticated.

  • This thing is basically designed to be a budget rugged four by four off Roader, but it's just so so desirable.

  • One thing I will show you if you come around the back, is how small this thing is.

  • It is by no means a G class competitors.

  • You can see a normal human sitting in the back there on This is the boot space that you left with.

  • You can't about things like that.

  • I've already decided.

  • I love it.

  • One last look.

  • It's a single seater Ferrari with no roof and no windscreen is called the Ferrari Monza on Dhe.

  • Before we get into all the details, let's just make sure we get a good look at these.

  • This is the SP one, the one that only has one seat on the black car behind you.

  • That's the SP, too, because it has two seats.

  • What is it well, as I said, it's called the Ferrari Monitor.

  • It's the first in a range of cars that Ferrari is calling its eye Kona.

  • Siri's basically harking back tow cars from its past.

  • This one nods towards the 7 50 Monza from the fifties and the 16 m m.

  • Um, it's a very special series of cars.

  • They're gonna cost 1.6 million quid each.

  • They're gonna make 499 of them.

  • Basically, how many two seaters and how many single seaters they make?

  • Well, that's down to customer demand based on the idea behind this is that you've got your special Siri's Ferraris before a peace in the light, you got the normal cars like the 488 Then you've got the hyper cars, the Super Series, like the year like the Laferrari.

  • And then this is on top of that.

  • They've got enough production here, 499 cars to fill two years, and the idea is to keep their most loyal on their most Let's vote it.

  • Wealthy customers happy because when the Laferrari has launched well, there's just not enough to go around.

  • This spread the love a little bit you can only buy one each and his quiet thing, isn't it?

  • Under there is basically an 8 12 super fast so 6.5 liter V 12 naturally aspirated 799 great course powers a little bit more than the 8 12 RIA will drive north to 62.9 seconds and a top speed of 186 miles an hour.

  • And I can assure you 108 6 miles on their little insects.

  • Hitting your eyeballs will feel like bullets from a gun.

  • But nonetheless, it's not so much about driving it.

  • This thing has admiring it for what it is.

  • A piece of art.

  • By the way, if you're wondering, it's gonna be the two seater for me.

  • Just a quick word for this car.

  • It's from Japan.

  • It's called a spark our and what it wants to be.

  • What is claiming to be is the fastest accelerating car in the world.

  • Now they've already done naught to 60 in 1.9 seconds.

  • It's all electric, by the way, Weighs nothing, has lots and lots of power.

  • But if you haven't seen that video, I advise you Google.

  • It and have a look straight way.

  • The place where they do the high speed run is basically in a car park behind an old industrial building with a big ditch at the end of the run off.

  • Um, yeah, it's ah, eye opening to say the least.

  • Pretty amazing what you can find when you sniff around in the halls behind the big stands, isn't it?

  • This is the Lego stand on.

  • This is a Bugatti Shiran 1 to 1 scale made entirely from Lego.

  • If you're looking for something to keep the kids busy over the Christmas holidays, we should probably do it.

  • Three million bits, Apparently way two ton and 1/2.

  • It actually drives, has got any electric motor and they'll do 30 kilometers an hour.

  • I'm told on DDE.

  • Check this out first.

  • This it makes noises pretty exciting.

  • Headlines Hazard lights.

  • I think we better move on.

  • I'm gonna get a little bit obsessed with this.

  • What?

  • All right Time for one of the big launches of the Paris show.

  • This is the all new the brand new BMW Free Siris on DDE.

  • What doesn't look too bad, does it, especially since BMW has been on a bit of a poor run of design form.

  • Recently, you'll notice it's Nick's the headlights in the perjury 3008.

  • But we'll let that slide the big story here.

  • It's 55 kilograms lighter than before.

  • Despite being a bit bigger in all dimensions, 41 male Maur in the wheel base will take a quick look around the back.

  • No masses to report.

  • Really, they paid it pretty safe.

  • This car here is the 3 30 I.

  • So that's a two litre turbo with about 250 horsepower.

  • There's gonna be a 3 30 e plug in hybrids.

  • Frankly, I think we'll hold out for the M three.

  • We should have a look at the interior, though.

  • We come over here.

  • Excuse me.

  • Sorry.

  • Stick your camera in there, right?

  • It's a bit fresher.

  • It's a bit more modern.

  • It's a bit cleaner, more like Audi Mercedes.

  • In fact, in the swarm of black plastic that BMW is used to.

  • The best thing on the smart stand isn't the speeds to concept that's tucked over there somewhere.

  • Is this the in no way unstable, smart mobile disco when I walk past Earlier, there was actually a bloke standing there in that cherry picker pod about foot off the ceiling, wobbling about in the breeze, playing music.

  • I'm sorry that he's not doing it right now, but what can you do?

  • I would not get in there.

  • Keep up.

  • We've got a lot to get through now this is the Mercedes stand on.

  • This is the new A Class, but the new A 35 AMG.

  • Perhaps there will be a full fat 400 horsepower, plus a 45 mg coming.

  • But in the meantime, we've got this to keep us happy.

  • It is a new two liter turbocharged engine, 306 horse power.

  • The whole thing's been tuned up by Mercedes, so the chassis, the suspension, steering absolutely everything.

  • Gold wheels, you got stickers on the side wings at the back.

  • It's no half ass effort.

  • This thing it's Mercedes.

  • Answer to the Gulf, just with a little bit more flair.

  • They conformed to driving that, and over here we have Mercedes radical replacement for the new SL Roadster.

  • This thing will be on sale this time next.

  • I'm joking.

  • Look, it's a single seater.

  • It's called the E.

  • Q.

  • What is the CQ Silver Arrow yet another retro themed thing, this time talking back to the speeds of the stream liners from the thirties.

  • Very cool, largely irrelevant.

  • But it does show that Mercedes is starting to take electric cars very seriously, and the electrical you can actually buy is over here, although admittedly you're probably walked straight past it.

  • If you didn't know what it was, it's called the U.

  • Q C.

  • It's another electric SUV.
