Electric vehicles
It appears unlikely that Tesla has the capacity to fill Hertz’s order for 100,000 Model 3s by the end of 2022. The two companies are negotiating this but a delivery rate of 10,000 per year would be more normal. Hertz may also seek to acquire electric vehicles from other manufacturers.[1] How this affects its deal with Uber[2] is unclear.
