Interesting changes. Could this be a sign of the new vehicles coming into the fleet? I'm yet to see a Mazda at Hertz; my FL HLE recently said they haven't had a single Mazda in a long time.

Looks like they're still using the discontinued Chrysler 200 as the example for full size and discontinued Nissan Quest for minivan though.

The US web site is showing the Camry for full size and Pacifica for minivan, although, strangely, it reverts to the old category examples when attempting to modify an existing reservation.

Did anyone else catch that the website says "Nissan Pacifica or similar"
Also on the vehicle guide it's showing a VW Passat as it's own category, and now "F6" features include sunroof.

I think the latter is true; I just rented a Dodge Charger and the receipt showed that it was coded as an F6. While it did have leather seats, it didn't have a sunroof.

LOL, I did catch that. The M6 category for the Passat is a TNC category. TNC also has a B6 category for compact cars. (TNC locations are special HLE stations that only rent to Uber/Lyft drivers).

Spotted a brand new 2019 Kia Niro on the lot today. Was tagged as Q4 (Mid Size SUV) even though it's a hybrid and technically a subcompact SUV. Added to Wiki.

I would like to move this post to the correct thread, but the information given doesn't provide me any info.
What location was this?
Do you have any Hertz status?



Thanks

Hmmm... also has the Lincoln Continental listed as the Luxury car now. Odd that the photo for Intermediate shows a Mazda 3 hatchback which Ive never even seen in the fleet.

Wow, I'd love to rent a Continental. I've never seen one at a Hertz lot before. I saw one on an Avis lot once.

Will see what happens. Nicest "upgrade" probably is Prestige Collection H4 class that jumped from MB GLC/Evoque to MB GLS. Available with same prices and my existing reservation shows now GLS or similar reserved. Printed it out just in case
