My local HLE was true to their word. I stopped over today and they had 2 brand new Teslas, however they are only available for Uber drivers. I was told there is a separate fleet for regular rentals but no eta on those. Bummer, they look really nice.

Spotted some 50+ model 3s at LAX yesterday, they were all in the reserved area, but an agent that I know told me manager wants at least $200+/day to upgrade.
I wish them good luck.

Insane; as PC you reserve a Corolla (20k ish car) and can choose a 7 seater SUV if it’s available (50k ish car), but the Tesla (40k ish) oh no don’t dare let that one go for less than $200 a day 😀

Yeah I need to rent a car for a day at ATL in Feb and seeing Model 3s for $100/day with the Amex Plat CDP. Think I'll stick with my emerald aisle at National for $40/day. Was hoping they'd release some of the 3s into the PC lot, but guess that's not in the cards.

My local hertz got another 4 in, but they are still
exclusive to the Uber fleet.
Is anyone else hearing this / seeing this at their (non-airport) locations?
I just want to drive one for a day
Wonder if Uber is subsidizing some of the cost for hertz?

Bump...has anyone successfully rented a Tesla from Hertz yet?
I made a reservation for one in ATL for July 4 weekend - only $55 per day with my corporate CDP for leisure travel. We'll be driving at least 400 miles so will need to charge once or twice. Apparently charging will not be included for rentals after February 1, 2022 - do I need to return the Tesla with a full charge? The Hertz web site did not make that part clear.

Rented a Model 3 Long Range yesterday from Philadelphia Amtrak. I was offered the upgrade for $20 for a 1 day rental, which I could not refuse. Paid $80 total. I heard the agent saying they were out of full-size and requesting from some other location, probably why it was so cheap. They had 4 Teslas at the location at the time.

Does anybody know if Teslas (E7 through E9) are available exclusively at airport locations or also at corporate HLE's?

Does anyone know when Hertz is planning on rolling out in new markets? Some locations aren't on the published lists that I've seen like CLT. It allows me to book a MY there, but that location isn't listed on the main Tesla Hertz page. Trying to book one out of RDU later this fall.
