Not hating EVs, I realllly want an Ioniq5, but have had to settle for a RAV4 Prime given that the state I live in has poor charging infrastructure and the terrain is high-drain hilly.
I went to a free charging station first. Seemed like it was taking too long. Went to a paid one and there was a line. Went back to the free one. Realized it was going to take until 4am to get around half charged. Went back to the paid one and waited in the line.
I was there until 1am to get it charged to 70%. Filed a BBB complaint and got refunded for the rental. Really turned me off to EV's.

BUT in my experience all the complaints on here are true. Vehicles are never more that a quarter charged. You'll spend your first few hours hunting down available chargers, downloading apps, waiting to charge, waiting as you charge. Last time I asked the rental attendant to point out the charge state and they pointed out the regen indicator. Neither of us knew since the gauges on electrics aren't standardized, but I figured it out half an hour later when the low battery indicator came on. So it's not really a free day, it's more a spend a day of unpaid labor doing what you had expected the rental agency to already have done.

The Hertz charging policy now lets you Skip the Recharge. You can return your EV at any charge level and we'll recharge it for $35—or just $25 for Gold Plus Rewards Members. Or, return it at the same level as pick-up and pay $0.
