ESTERO,
Fla., July 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Hertz is
giving Americans the opportunity to experience an electric vehicle
by hosting one of the largest-ever EV test drives in the
country. Today, Hertz customers and rideshare drivers will have the
chance to test drive an EV at the Hertz location at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), and
to see the newest EV models showcased by Tesla, Chevrolet, Polestar
and Kia.
Today Hertz kicked off one of the country's
largest Electric Vehicle test drives at the company's LAX
location.
For those who can't make it to the event at LAX, Hertz is
offering a nationwide Hertz Let's Go Electric promotion that
provides customers with one rental day free when they rent an
electric vehicle for two or more days now through Labor Day*.
Additional in-person test drives are being planned at Hertz
locations across the U.S. later this year.
"We are thrilled to offer our customers a range of rental
vehicles at a variety of price points, including this exciting next
generation of automotive technology," said Laura Smith, Hertz Executive Vice President of
Global Sales and Customer Experience. "For customers who are
curious about electric vehicles, there's no better way to
experience one than with a test drive at Hertz, which has the
largest rental fleet of EVs in the U.S."
Hertz has tens of thousands of EVs available for rent at more
than 2,000 locations across 44 states. In addition to leisure and
business travelers, Hertz also rents EVs to rideshare drivers
through a partnership with Uber. Nearly 50,000 drivers on the Uber
platform have rented electric vehicles from Hertz so far.
To help customers feel comfortable and confident on the road,
