It’s been dubbed a “green failure”... Multiple social media users and certain tabloids have been sharing the news that Oslo’s new fleet of electric buses has all stopped working due to freezing temperatures. But what really happened? #TheCube
Hertz said it will sell about 20,000 electric vehicles from its U.S. fleet. It said it expects the sale of the EVs to "take place in an orderly fashion over the course of 2024."
Yeah, I think it was kind of a short-sighted idea of Hertz to think that EV rentals would be a thing at this point in time.
It's one thing for an individual consumer to decide to purchase one, but people are looking for convenience when they rent a car and probably don't have access to charging.
I don't think vehicle rental is a wise use-case for EVs right now.
Yeah at -37 here today your 350 km range is suddenly 40km then you're stuck on a desolate road with no heat at all left to die of hypothermia, in your expensive hi-tech eco-coffin. How DARE YOU!
Who would be dumb enough to buy a used electric car?

Upon further review, Turns out its a 70's 351 out of a Torino. Kinda wondered why it had that low end torque up hills. Also, its the 137 firing order not 154. Not even going to change it. Get more joy out of just hopping in this beast & doing whatever it needs to do.
