The selections in the PC section were pretty slim on the morning of June 30. I had booked a midsize SUV about a week before as supposedly everything else was sold out. When I got to PC, there was a Mitsubishi Outlander(?) that didn't look particularly attractive to me and a Ford Escape. I took the Escape (11000 km on it) I didn't notice any exotic or special cars in the area.

If the Escape you're referring to is gray, there's a chance I'm in the same one right now.

Arrived at the lot around 8pm and there were just 2 cars in PC - 2 Escapes, one blue, one gray. 5 star and Gold had some Kia Souls, Corollas etc. Not a whole lot of selections overall. Also, this may be old news to some, but I wasn't aware the T3 location closed down.

Great selection at Hertz yesterday - August 2. At least 10 Tesla on the lot, if not more. Would post pics, but forum is not allowing me.
Anyway, I got myself a Tesla Model Y - very enjoyable!

From what I remember, it was the section towards the left of the Hertz booth about half way down. Probably PC, but could have been reserved section also. On the day I returned the car, the reserved section was full of tesla.

Yes! I'm excited for my future travels to Toronto as I know I can likely get a Tesla again. Apparently, Hertz @ YYC also has plenty of them now.

I booked a full-size and upgraded once I landed there. When I login to Hertz now, I can see that you can book directly there itself to ensure you get it.

Wow! $20 a day is a steal! Did you take the Model 3?
