Assessment of News Article:


This news article Tesla fighter: Jaguar's electric I-PACE stakes its claim to musk turf  was found on USA Today. USA TODAY is distributed internationally daily, its a middle-market newspaper, the newspaper is owned by the Gannett Company. The newspaper has a generally a middle class audience. The founder of this company was Al Neuharth. It was first issued on September 15, 1982. Also this newspaper is the third most circulated in the US. The Author of this article is Marco Della Cava who has received a number of regional and national journalism awards and was named as a Knight-Wallace Fellow at the University of Michigan.


Summary of Article:


This article is talking about the new all electric car and first from the British maker Jaguar. The is supposed to go to showrooms this November. It's said to be the first genuine challenger for the currently well known Tesla. Its supposed to be slightly cheaper then the two top Tesla cars. Mentioned that in the past jaguar had a hard time on technology but ever since the merged with the indian company Tata motors. They feel like they that merging came at a great time because mercedez benz and audi also are making an all electric car. The article talks about it putting this car in showrooms at Miami and New York because those are two great market city's. This article is mostly talking and comparing it to the Tesla and what extra features this car has.


Analysis of Article:


This article was trying to catch the eye of the few out there in market for totally electric cars and also for those her are currently into Teslas by comparing different features. They were trying to catch the eye of these customer by mentioning that this car will be cheaper and that it will have more horse power. That the battery will last longer and charge faster. Towards the end they mentioned the biggest part I thought. they car will have a gps system that will show all locations that have charging stations.


My Opinion:


In my opinion this new Jaguar is really nice and yes its a car that I would like to have but just like the teslas. This car is still too much for middle class people. This car even though its cheaper than the Tesla it will still be only for upper class. If I was rich I do see myself going for this jaguar instead of Tesla. I love the style and interior of this car. I really liked the fact that the car will notify you were all the charge stations are at in case you go in a road trip with your family and you don't know where to charge.
