Last time I rented a car from Hertz back in November I was surprised how many EVs they had on the lot. I would've thought EV rentals would be kind of niche, but they had several available.
As an aside, I was also surprised that they had a special line/desk that was only for Uber/Lyft drivers and there were people in that line. I guess I would've thought that by the time you paid for the rental costs you wouldn't make any money driving for Uber or Lyft.
True. Though one of the Uber drivers was there specifically for an AWD Tesla. I'd guess that's not cheap to rent and would eat into profits. Also the people ahead of us in line rented a Bolt.
