South Korean tech giant Samsung announced that it would be permanently stopping production of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphone. The decision to cease production came after reports that the devices were unsafe and had been catching fire. Owners of the phone are expected to be able to get a refund or exchange it for another Samsung phone. Samsung already made a voluntary global recall of 2.5 million Galaxy Note 7 phones in September, in response to reports which claimed that the batteries caught fire.
In this video, Mat Watson and Rebecca Chaplin hit the roads of London in a BMW i3 for a challenge with a difference.The pair took it in turns to drive some of the city’s busiest areas without pressing the brake pedal and attempted to get by just using the electric car’s regenerative braking alone.Like many electric cars, the BMW i3 begins to recover energy as soon as you take your foot off the accelerator. When it’s accelerating the battery powers the wheels but when it’s braking the motor acts as a generator, charging the battery and gently bringing the car to a stop at the same time – if you’re on flat ground that is.Each of would drive just over three miles and the person who used the brake pedal the least would win. Of course, they weren’t allowed to cause an accident by not braking so planning ahead and paying attention would be key!
