Used Teslas depreciated 30% year on year as of 2024 which is a lot more than a regular new ICE car which is around 20% from new to year one. Perhaps the depreciation will revert to ICE, but I think it will take more discounting with the glut of used Tesla EVs that people don't want. That would explain why Hertz wants them gone ASAP and why I can't rent one anymore from Hertz.
