Introduction:
Hertz Rental Company's recent decision to offload thousands of electric vehicles, including mostly Teslas, has sparked discussion about the viability of EVs in the market.

Key Points:
Hertz's rationale:

• The decision stemmed from realizing that EVs are not cost-effective due to higher maintenance, repair, and collision costs.
• Despite efforts to promote them as upgrades, customers overwhelmingly prefer traditional gas vehicles over electric ones, even when offered at no additional cost.

Implications for consumers:

• If you're in the market for a used vehicle and open to considering an electric option, this could be an opportune time.
• Prices of used electric vehicles are anticipated to plummet, with some models potentially reaching as low as $10,000—unprecedented in the automotive market.
• However, it's crucial to assess whether an electric vehicle aligns with your lifestyle and needs, as it might not be suitable for everyone.

Conclusion:
While Hertz's move signals a significant shift in the perception and market dynamics of electric vehicles, consumers should weigh their options carefully and consider their lifestyle before making a purchase decision. Keep an eye on the used car listings for potential bargains, but ensure it fits your needs before diving in, perhaps as a second vehicle.
