We'll start with news today about the new Cooper at Ravel.

0:13.4

That's Cooper's version of the VW ID2.

0:16.8

So this won't be their super cheap, 20,000 euro urban mini segment, but this would certainly be up against the 25,000 euro cars that are all coming.

0:26.9

Not some cheap cars in Europe.

0:28.4

Obviously, we're looking forward to the Hyundai Insta.

0:31.2

1:19.0

Before the ID2, like I say, 25,000 euros, 27,000 US dollars equivalent, not that it will be

1:23.8

a North American car, of course. Lots of spice shots we're seeing of this one, so it can't be far away.

1:29.2

Also seeing shots this weekend of the camouflage, tester model Y prototypes.

1:32.4

Nothing huge to learn or gain about these pictures because the front and the rear are covered up.

1:35.7

But we think a light bar across the back with that new logo, T-E-S-L-A, not the T- on the back, maybe set in or maybe illuminated on a full-width red light bar across the back and the inside.
