Tesla Energy

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose Tesla because it is one of the most popular electric car brands in the world, and I know that the company make great efforts to doing their part in helping the environment as a whole, avoiding gas vehicles. I have always known that it is a large company with high expectations and the loyalty that its customers have towards it.

Evaluate the article
This article starts off with a strong introduction/lead and gives the reader a sense of what is going to be described for the rest of the article (describes well what Tesla is, what they do, etc.). The lead does include brief descriptions of the articles major sections and it everything that is in the article seems to be contained in the lead. I do not think that it is overly detailed, as it gives 9 solid, concise points that is relevant to the article overall.

The article is up to date, using facts about Tesla Energy from 2022. The articles content is relevant to the topic and does a solid job at diving into Tesla’s financial positions, Elon Musk and his views, new ways of solar innovation they have planned, and more. One thing that should be fixed is the Energy Software section, as this does not contain enough information for the reader and should be edited so it does so.

I would say that this article is neutral because it does not sway any ways towards disagreeing with Tesla, or over agreeing with Tesla as well. It seems the article is just presented facts about the company. I would say that maybe the article could be more swayed towards Tesla for the reader, but I think that is because Tesla has a lot of positives, and the author is doing their job presenting these positives.

There are many sources listed throughout the article and a lot of them are current/reliable. The links do work when I click on them for the sources, and the authors of the sources vary as well. I am not really sure if there are better sources available for this article. The article appears to seem easy to read and I do not notice any spelling checks myself.

The article does include images that enhance the understanding of the topic and I think that they are good pictures that allow the reader to gain a grasp on the topics the author is trying to hit. The pictures do have captions under them, and the layout of the pictures are easy to follow because they are all on the right side of the page. I think that the article is overall strong, and the strengths I would say are that the article is clear and concise. It is pretty easy to read and follow due to the manner that the facts are presented. I think that it could improve by adding more pictures to the article, I think that it lacks visuals which can be a great way for a reader to understand the details. I think that it is developed and complete on most levels.
