Horrible. Wasn’t clear in the reservation that we’d get an electric car. Was only charged 77% when we got it. Can was smelling of smoke and had scratches all over the place. Chip in the window. Had to park it and get a software update for 1 1/2 hours in order for it to charge. Then had it charge for 12 hours k my to get 80% charge . Aweful. I will never rent and electric car again, and will avoid dollar/thrifty/hertz whenever possible. If they try to stick my with any damage on this car I will see them in court.Reviewed 2 Oct 2023

Pros:Free upgrade due to longer wait in line and a free trade when the upgraded car did not meet our needs.Cons:I had to wait to give my keys to someone for drop off and let them know I had a full tank. I think they could do a more automated drop off.Reviewed 2 Feb 2021
