Is that a Tesla thing? Or does Hertz have some sort of battery draining telematics? I have a non-Tesla EV and even in warm weather (100°F+) that hasn't been the case for me. If the weather changes drastically the SOC might change ±2%, but when I've left my car sitting for weeks it seems to average out
- resters 3y agoIt could have been the aforementioned mis-calibration as well, not sure. I consulted some help/documentation at the time and it said it was normal. With respect to telematics, I think the only change to the vehicle was that a few menu options were unavailable. I updated the software on one of the vehicles, renamed a few, added some to the app, etc. In my opinion, a Hertz office with sufficient charging capacity could be great with EVs. (I also don't understand why traditional gas stations aren't already featuring a few high capacity charging stalls)
