As of October 2023, Hertz Global Holdings had about 50,000 electric vehicles (EVs) in its fleet, including around 35,000 Teslas. However, Hertz is selling 20,000 of those EVs and replacing them with gas-powered cars:
Reason for selling
Hertz is selling the EVs to reinvest in gas-powered vehicles and to reduce higher expenses related to collision and damage.
Impact on future purchases
Hertz's decision to sell EVs underscores the waning demand for all-electric cars in the US. The company will keep a close eye on EV demand to decide whether to buy more vehicles.
Impact on financial results
The plan to sell EVs should improve Hertz's cash flow and earnings this year and next. The company expects improved financial results driven by higher revenue per day and lower depreciation and operating expenses.
Hertz was an early adopter of EVs, announcing in 2021 that it would buy 100,000 Teslas. However, EV sales growth slowed sharply over the course of 2023, rising just 1.3% in the final quarter.
