Rental Qualifications and Requirements

Electric vehicles

Short-term rentals (i.e. not multi-month)  

• NETWORK CHARGING STATIONS -  You can access these Charging Stations using the Hertz key fob or key card provided.  Our Network Charging Stations means Shell Recharge Charging Stations and, if you are renting a Tesla, also Tesla Supercharger stations.

• END OF RENTAL RECHARGE - Hertz will record the vehicle battery charge at the start of the rental. We ask you to return the vehicle with at least the same level of charge or 80%, (whichever is lower).  If you return the vehicle with a level of charge lower than recorded level of charge at pick up, we will recharge the vehicle for you at price per kW/h communicated on your rental agreement. You can confirm with our agents the current price per missing kWh used to recharge the vehicle.

• If you return the vehicle with 10% or less battery charge then we will also charge an Administration Fee of € 25.00 because this increases our turn around times and involves staff time.
• IDLE FEES/PARKING CHARGES - Please be aware that if you fail to move the vehicle at the end of your charging session then idle fees may apply and we will pass these on to you. Parking charges may also apply at charging stations and you are responsible for these.  Please check the T&Cs at each charging station before use.
• OTHER - Third party/non network charging stations are excluded. If you choose to use these then third party fees apply.

See the Electric Vehicle Terms for full T&Cs.

Multi-month rentals:

• NETWORK CHARGING STATIONS - You may select a rate which is either inclusive or exclusive of fair use of the Network Charging Stations (these are Shell Recharge charging stations and, if the Vehicle is a Tesla, also Tesla SuperChargers).
• If you have selected a rate which includes use of Network Charging Stations: you may access and use our Network Charging Stations for the Vehicle during your MultiMonth rental on a fair usage basis. (Please check with your company whether the use of Network Charging Stations is included
• If you have selected a rate which does not include use of Network Charging Stations: you will be able to access and use our Network Charging Stations, however you will be charged separately for any such use.  The total cost of your use of Network Charging Stations will be passed on to you at the end of your rental period. If after your rental is closed Hertz receives any additional charges for costs incurred during your rental period(including recharge and/or parking), Hertz reserves the right to invoice you separately for these amounts.
• IDLE FEES/PARKING CHARGES - For all MultiMonth rentals, please be aware that if you fail to move the vehicle at the end of your charging session then idle fees may apply and we will pass these on to you. Parking charges may also apply at charging stations and you are responsible for these.  Please check the T&Cs at each charging station before use.
