Astypalea is on its way to becoming a smart, sustainable island: in the presence of Greece's Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, Volkswagen boss Herbert Diess and Deputy Foreign Minister Kostas Fragogiannis, the first e-vehicles were put into operation today, including Greece's first fully electric police car. At the same time, the first private and public charging points went online. It is the starting signal for a comprehensive electrification of Astypalea: In the coming years, the island is to be converted to smart, sustainable mobility and the energy system is to be completely renewed. Volkswagen and the Greek government signed a memorandum of understanding to this effect last November.

New Range Rover Sport Premiere

18 May 2022 88 Views

The New Range Rover Sport has made its global premiere with a dramatic world-first climb up a flooded dam spillway in Iceland. The epic ascent saw New Range Rover Sport resist the surging torrent of water flowing down the ramp of the Karahnjukar Dam – the biggest of its kind in the world – at a rate of 750 tonnes per minute. A loss of traction risked plunging down the perilous 90m drop at the base of the spillway to the valley floor below. The successful spillway ascent was screened for the first time at an exclusive launch event at Jaguar Land Rover’s Advanced Product Creation Centre at Gaydon, UK. Official James Bond stunt driver Jessica Hawkins was behind the wheel as the New Range Rover Sport demonstrated its grip, traction, performance and composure, completing the latest in a series of challenges for Land Rover’s luxury performance SUV. Previous feats include a record-setting hill-climb at Pikes Peak, a first recorded crossing of the ‘Empty Quarter’ desert in the Arabian Peninsula and a first ascent of the 999 steps to Heaven’s Gate in China, in 2018.
