Hello and welcome to Shift a podcast about mobility. I'm Molly Boygan,

tech and innovation reporter for Automotive News in for Pete Bigelow this week.

This week on the show we're doing something a little bit different.

The Sonic branding agency, Listen, and the market research firm Cloud Army, are publishing some research this week that explores the question

what sound should an electric vehicle make?

Welcome to Stop Colleagues what's's that sound? The game that tests my very game and patient

automotive news colleagues about the sounds that electric vehicles make. They have a chance

to win 1 million bragging rights on slack

Here to join me on stop colleagues. What's that sound are Hannah Lutz and Jake near.

Thanks for coming on the show.

Hi Molly. I'm so excited for this.

Yeah.

Can't wait to see if you guys can win the grand prize.

So how's everyone doing today?

Good, ready to hear about this game, ready to win it.

I'm weirdly nervous.

I mean, you know, the 1 million bragging rights, it's a lot on the line, you know?

A lot on the line.

Stakes are very high.

So today I'm going to be testing your ear.

Have either of you ever noticed the hum of electric vehicles driving by?

Yes, it's very quiet.
