I am not ready to rent an electric car.
As an EV owner, I am not willing to rent an EV, though I did recently in a specific situaiton. I needed a car for just a few hours and the Polestar 2 from Hertz was only $25 for the day. I had the car for such a short period of time I did not need to charge to return it at the requested return level.
The uncertainty of charging in an unfamiliar area is just not worth it.
Tesla has a big advantage of a reliable DCFC network.
DCFC for every other brand is a crapshoot. I have never been stranded or had to resort to my third choice but I have not had an experience that resembles buying gas on a road trip.
At the moment I am in Panama City Beach, FL. The closest DCFC is nearly 50 miles away. There appear to be about 7 options for L2 but when you actually read about them on PlugShare.com you find out that they either don't work, are consistently blocked, or are located at EV hostile dealerships that do not provide public acces.
I am lucky that I am at a small condo that has a 110 outlet available. I charged at the DCFC 50 miles away on my way in knowing that I might not be able to charge again until I was leaving and back at the DCFC station in Chipley FL. A charging stop that if there was reliable DCFC available at my destination was totally unnecessary.
That little 110 outlet though will give me 3 miles an hour of charge. More than enough overnight to cover the little driving I will do during the day.
But having access to that 110 outlet is not a given. Having access to L2 charging at a hotel that advertises L2 charging is not a given. I have pulled up at hotels on other road trips and found the one or two chargers already occupied.
When it is a road trip I have planned that is fine.
When it is a car rental it is more planning then I want to do.
