:01:22. > :01:25.the global auto industry That's more than the entire

:02:40. > :02:44.are plenty of the big kind of sports utility vehicles that Americans love

:02:45. > :02:47.so much right now. But the big US automakers have been criticised for

:02:48. > :02:52.falling behind when it comes to cutting-edge technology. Case in

:02:53. > :02:56.point, Tesla is now worth more than General Motors and Ford. I've come

:02:57. > :02:59.here to ask or the executives or does it take to succeed as a global

:03:00. > :03:18.carmaker today? Don't try to grow too fast, don't

:03:19. > :03:22.try to overstretch the market, don't have too much supply, hold on

:03:23. > :03:28.pricing power, get the mix right. If you put those things together you

:03:43. > :03:46.navigator. It starts with a kind of a customer first approach of what

:03:47. > :03:50.they want and then how this technology deliver that, so it's

:03:51. > :03:54.really maintaining the focus of creating great products but also

:03:55. > :03:55.more and more as we go forward great services and experiences for

:03:56. > :04:11.customers. We are committed to seeing better

:04:12. > :04:16.fuel economy and lower emissions and this is not a new thing, this has

:04:17. > :04:23.been going for the last decade or so. All around the decade -- world,

:04:24. > :04:26.there is a push to drop emissions and fuel economy to go up until

:04:27. > :04:30.ultimately zero emissions and the technological steps towards it and

:04:31. > :04:38.also started building in overall volume. -- built in. One key to

:04:39. > :04:43.success is doing well in China, the world 's biggest car market. So next

:04:44. > :04:46.week, these automakers turned their attention to the Shanghai auto show.

:04:47. > :04:49.Krish Bhaskar is CEO and Founder of MIRU -

:04:50. > :04:58.the Motor Industry Research Unit in Nice France.

:04:59. > :05:06.Not a bad spot to work in! Think you for coming in at this horrible time

:05:07. > :05:10.of the morning! There has been some criticism, some of the US car

:05:11. > :05:15.makers, and maybe Volkswagen to some extent, that they have all been a

:05:16. > :05:21.bit slow in adopting and adapting to the changing technological world

:05:22. > :05:26.that we are in. That's absolutely right, they have, but on the other

:05:27. > :05:31.hand President Trump has come in and reversed everything, or is about to.

:05:32. > :05:36.2017 regulations are fluid at the moment. We don't know what they will

:05:37. > :05:41.be. And it's quite clear that what Obama thought would happen is going

:05:42. > :05:45.be reversed and may even be rolled back. Let's take that step further

:05:46. > :05:49.because I will explain, Krish and I were talking before we came on air

:05:50. > :05:53.and you think the whole electorate sort of push towards electric cars

:05:54. > :05:57.with now in could be pushed to the site? Not pushed to the side but

:05:58. > :06:02.delayed. Resident Trump won't be there for ever but it is happening

:06:03. > :06:07.in North America at the US particularly, is there is going to

:06:08. > :06:15.be a delay. Now at the moment Paola, muscle cars, huge SUV is, of the

:06:16. > :06:19.showstoppers, are huge engines with 800, 0- 100 miles an hour in less

:06:20. > :06:24.than five seconds, huge seven seater SUV 's. We used to call them the

:06:25. > :06:30.Yank tanks. They are making a comeback? Yes. What you think the

:06:31. > :06:35.showstopper will be this year? Lincoln navigator. It is

:06:36. > :06:40.outstanding. The lucida electric vehicle could have been really great

:06:41. > :06:45.pre- Trump but not post Trump and one of our own vehicles the

:06:46. > :06:52.airspace, Jaguar F pace, is the total winner of the air. It is

:06:53. > :06:56.great. You mentioned lucid, made in California, an electric car maker,

:06:57. > :07:00.but we always talk about Tesla, did it surprise you that Tesla did

:07:01. > :07:04.overtake a company that makes a fraction of the cars has never made

:07:05. > :07:07.a profit at one point it did overtake the value of General Motors

:07:08. > :07:13.and Ford? That's the investors speaking with their wallet, isn't

:07:14. > :07:19.it? That is doing something new. There's a new competitor by G M, the

:07:20. > :07:23.Chevrolet Alt and it looks good, it is cheaper, it works, its extender

:07:24. > :07:28.lead to a vehicle and it is excellent. I have been told I have

:07:29. > :07:33.to wrap it up. I want to ask you very briefly, diesel car sales, are

:07:34. > :07:37.they going to go down do you think? They may come back up depended on

:07:38. > :07:40.the regulations. Everyone at the moment is trying to see what is

:07:41. > :07:47.going to happen. Regulations have been passed, it diesel, the 2017 but

:07:48. > :07:49.a comeback. A great three, always a pleasure, thank you for joining us

:07:50. > :07:52.on this Friday will stop. It is is improving the security

:07:53. > :07:57.of its app and website after a BBC investigation found people's homes

:07:58. > :07:59.had been burgled by scammers The BBC spoke to three

:08:00. > :08:03.people who were robbed after they advertised

:08:04. > :08:18.their properties on So I walked the police into this

:08:19. > :08:22.room which you can see is full of stuff but it was like completely

:08:23. > :08:26.empty. Lack of people Christian Howard letter keys home on AirBnB

:08:27. > :08:29.while he was out of town as a convenient way to make some extra

:08:30. > :08:33.money. It done so for years without a problem but on his birthday his

:08:34. > :08:36.home was burgled. While I was enjoying the hotel and having

:08:37. > :08:41.breakfast and then returning back to the hotel room, just to enjoy the

:08:42. > :08:44.day and relax a little bit, I got a horrible text message saying that

:08:45. > :08:47.somebody is in the flat and it is not me because my account has been

:08:48. > :08:51.compromised. Obviously my birthday was over, said it was my first

:08:52. > :08:57.reaction. Christian body had let at his home a verified profile, or who

:08:58. > :09:00.had shown a B government identification and it had positive

:09:01. > :09:03.reviews from previous bookings that the account had been stolen, the

:09:04. > :09:07.attacker changed the name, photographs and contact details but

:09:08. > :09:12.kept AirBnB's verified badge. And Christian isn't alone. The BBC has

:09:13. > :09:16.spoken to two other people who were robbed this way and three others who

:09:17. > :09:20.have the recount stolen. And AirBnB's Facebook page has dozens of

:09:21. > :09:24.comments from people who have had their accounts compromised. There

:09:25. > :09:27.are many ways attackers could have been hijacking AirBnB accounts, they

:09:28. > :09:31.may have tricked people into handing over their passwords but there are

:09:32. > :09:36.ways AirBnB could have defended against this. Google, Facebook and

:09:37. > :09:40.Twitter is among others all offer to step of occasion. It requires you to

:09:41. > :09:43.enter the code sent to your phone as well is your password to get into

:09:44. > :09:45.your account. We put our security concerns to AirBnB, the company

:09:46. > :10:01.said: those changes include to step of

:10:02. > :10:04.occasion when somebody logs in for a new device, and text message alerts

:10:05. > :10:10.is somebody changes your profile information. But the Christian, the

:10:11. > :10:13.changes come too late. This is the whole experience has left him with a

:10:14. > :10:18.bad feeling and he may not use AirBnB again. Let me leave you with

:10:19. > :10:19.this- Credit Suisse chief executive

:10:20. > :10:22.Tidjane Thiam and the bank's board of directors have offered

:10:23. > :10:25.to cut their own bonuses by 40% They also proposed to keep total

:10:26. > :10:31.board pay at the same level The move follows pressure from Swiss

:10:32. > :10:35.lawmakers and the bank's shareholders to address

:10:36. > :10:36.excessive executive pay. The Swiss bank has posted two

:10:37. > :10:41.straight years of losses but its top 12 executives were awarded around

:10:42. > :11:05.$77 million in pay this year. That's for two years of losses!

:11:06. > :11:08.Follow me on Twitter! I will be back with James to have a look at some of

:11:09. > :11:09.the papers
