Week 5

Week 5: I have focused on my sub-aim 1, which is about the social demands of electric vehicle use. Action Taken: This week I took four hours every night from Monday to Friday to read and write my own literature review. One of the literature reviews states that convenience, reliability, and habit affect the modal transportation choice. I further explored why people are still using internal combustion engine vehicles even with climate change. Additionally, another literature I researched expresses that another form of transportation, like riding a bus or taxi, can be quite unreliable, especially if it's your main source of transportation. In Auckland, there is a high chance of cancellation or delay in Auckland and Wellington. By the end of this work, I started reading some literature about electric vehicles' operating parameters. Results: I finished writing my first sub-1 literature review analysis. I have also set myself better for next week, focusing on sub 2, "Investigate the operating parameters of electric vehicles."
