Be careful

My question is, are there other EVs other than Teslas at this location which I may be given? There's a worthwhile discount on the 'EV Manager Special' versus a Tesla Model 3. But I don't want to get stuck with a much lesser model.

Thanks for any input.
I know that hertz does carry Chevy Bolts. So you could get stuck with a lesser model.

Ditto what silverWRX03 said about the Bolts. Hertz also has Polestar 2, Volvo C40, Hyundai Kona, Kia EV6, Chevy Silverado EV, and BMV I4 in the fleet. Since customers can return a vehicle to any location, the fleet moves around and you're not guaranteed any particular car, reservation or not.

On my recent visit to ORD they had six Model 3s on the lot. Another customer had reserved a model Y but it was not available at the time he went to pick it up so they gave him a Model 3.

Passed through on a recent Thursday evening. PC was pretty full—don't remember much as I was picking up from Reserved, but the cars that stood out to me were a Venza and two Honda Pilots (one of which was brand new). Booked Premium and was assigned a Cadillac XT4 with 12.5K.

Appreciated the PC-only exit booth—first time I've ever seen that!
