EV Channels Review
This video details the experience of renting a Tesla Model Y from Hertz, focusing on the process from reservation to pickup and initial impressions. The reviewer highlights Hertz's proactive communication through emails, which provided essential information about EV rental. The rental agent, Vanessa, is praised for her extensive knowledge and clear explanations of the Model Y's operation, including charging, key card usage, and regenerative braking, even teaching the reviewer a few things. The reviewer was pleased to receive a Model Y as requested, noting it was a Long Range version with approximately 12,000 miles and the full self-driving computer (though not FSD enabled). The seamless integration of charging costs directly to the rental credit card was a significant positive. While the insurance options were deemed expensive, the overall rental experience, including the car's condition and the staff's expertise, was highly satisfactory, leading to a strong recommendation for those looking to experience an EV for around $75.
