Steel, Alix, “Special Report: EVs: On the Brink of Change,” news: Bloomberg markets and Finance, February 22, 2020. https://youtu.be/MOcyXjRpPNc

Alix Steel in her “on the brink of change,” from Bloomberg Market And Finance published on Feb 22, 2020, questioned that, Is the electric vehicle, right for mass adoption? The price of the battery is still high that why consumers are not still adopting it. The experts are expecting until by 2024 the price of the electric car will remain higher than the regular gasoline car. The Alix also reminds us the electric vehicle is not new the history of electric vehicles starts in the 19th century.  The Alix thinks that the sedan car is going to disappear and whether it’s an SUV or Truck power by a better power EV or hydrogen fuel cell, the vehicle that transports us and how it transports us on the bricks of change.

I think that the documentary was very informative they discussed all the aspects of the electric vehicle. In the report “on the brink of change,” they discuss how the journey of the electric vehicle start, what’s the present condition and what could be in the future. There was also a lot of analysis on the report what makes it more practical and acceptable to everyone. I also like how they organized to present the data.

Steel Alix graduated from Northwestern University, earning her bachelor’s degree in communications, and studied business journalism at New York University. Steel Alix is a news anchor currently working for Bloomberg News based in New York City. She has been nominated for the SABEW award many times. I think she is creditable for this documentary because she is experienced, and she knows what she is doing. I like her presentation, she shows us how the transportation industries moving toward the electric vehicle.

The genre of this source is a youtube video and it’s a documentary about electric vehicles and how the transportation system is changing. It shows how everyone in the automotive industry is trying to move towards electric vehicles, and how the transportation industry is moving towards driverless transportation systems.

“Vehicle that transport us and how its transport us it on the brink of change.” nowadays, most of the vehicles that we use are gasoline cars, but the future is moving toward electric cars.  Someday when you call a taxi maybe there will be an electric car that showed up with no driver on it, and maybe your pizza will be also delivered in a driverless car, this idea is what going to be the future in-vehicle industry and everyone investing in it.

    Asef,
    Good format and clear information. Please correct the many typos and please number each of the six parts when you submit the final draft. The citation needs some work–see Purdue Owl.
