Hertz sells nearly new Maserati Grecale SUV for $45,000

The cheapest Grecale for sale from Hertz has just 12,544 miles and an asking price of $41,269 go through Brad Anderson November 23, 2024 16:00 Hertz's used Maserati Grecales start at $41,000, which is lower than most SUVs in its class. The Italian luxury model's new entry-level GT model starts at $69,900. Most of Hertz's used cars have less than 20,000 miles on them. Want to cruise around in a used Maserati Grecale for the same price as a fully loaded Toyota RAV4 Hybrid? Well, now's your chance. Hertz is selling more than 180 (as of this writing) pre-lease Grecale SUVs across the state, most priced under $45,000. Tempting, right? But before we pull the trigger, let’s put the brakes on. As with any lease-before-purchase, there's a certain risk associated with such an attractive price tag - especially when it involves a premium badge like a Maserati (and one that can be expensive to maintain). After all, we all know…

You Can Get A Tesla For Under $20K From Hertz, But You Probably Shouldn’t
You can buy a Tesla from Hertz for under $20,000, but you

If you want an electric car and like a good deal, Hertz has a fleet of depreciated Teslas and Chevys for you, but buyer beware November 18, 2024 15:11 Hertz is currently selling dozens of Tesla and Chevrolet Bolts at deep discounts. Some Model 3 models with higher mileage have asking prices below $20,000. Several Chevrolet Bolt models also cost less than $14,000. Hertz wants to move some of its all-electric inventory, but it can't act fast enough after posting a $1.3 billion loss in the third quarter and taking a $1 billion impairment charge on the loss of value in its electric vehicle fleet. However, Hertz's misstep in the EV market might be a win for you (or a friend), as the rental car giant is clearing out old EVs for under $20,000, and in many cases, for less. Less than $15,000.

Hertz to sell 30,000 more electric cars, swamping used cars

Hertz's third-quarter financials showed a larger-than-expected loss, sending its shares tumbling. The rental company is still feeling the ill effects of its disastrous electric vehicle plans, which have limited revenue this year. As a result, it plans to sell an additional 30,000 electric vehicles, which will enter the used car market by the end of the year. Hertz's third-quarter financial results released this week showed that the company is still reeling from its decision to bet heavily on electric vehicles. The sharp depreciation of its electric and ICE models was the main reason Hertz posted a net loss of $1.33 billion, compared with a profit of $629 million in the third quarter of 2023, news that caused its shares to fall further. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP") { adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd("6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); Tesla price cuts and EV depreciation The rental giant invested heavily in electric vehicles a few years ago,…

Want a 900-horsepower Mustang? Hertz has some Shelby GT500s for rent

Hertz Fires Back At Manager Who Charged Customer $10,000 For 25,000 Miles In One Month On ‘Unlimited Mileage’ Contract
Hertz fights back against manager who charged customer $10,000

The customer rented a car with no mileage limit, and the local manager fined him five figures One Hertz customer claims he was charged $10,000 after driving 25,000 miles on an "unlimited" contract. The rental giant condemned the manager's behavior and promised to address the inconsistent customer service policy. Hertz confirmed in a statement that despite the dispute, the customer will not face additional mileage charges. A now-viral video captures a heated confrontation between a Hertz customer and a local manager who threatened the customer over an eye-popping bill. According to the video, the customer drove a staggering 25,000 miles in one month and was charged $10,000 — even though the original contract promised "unlimited" mileage. This is a confusing-sounding situation. Now, before we unpack the details, let's take a moment to appreciate the sheer absurdity of this mileage. If you do the math, driving 25,000 miles in 30 days equates to just over 833 miles per day. Assuming an…
