Hertz CEO out following electric car ‘horror show’
  + stars: | 2024-03-18 | by ( Chris Isidore | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
New York CNN —Trouble and turmoil continue at rental car company Hertz. But the problem for Hertz wasn’t necessarily that the cars were electric, and customers simply do not want to drive electric cars. There might not be a charging station, or enough time, for a rental car customer to charge an EV, Ives said. These cases sometimes resulted in Hertz customers being arrested and even imprisoned. Scherr wasn’t the one who decided to make the big bet on EV demand by rental car customers.

Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr noted that the costs of repairs of an electric vehicle are also much higher. Scherr’s statements echoed findings by insurance analysts at LexisNexis who found that, when vehicle owners switch from gasoline-powered cars to electric cars, they tend to crash more. Drivers also tend to crash somewhat more when switching to gas-powered vehicles, too, but the increase is more pronounced with EVs. Mostly a Tesla thingIn both cases – with Hertz and with LexisNexis – “electric vehicles” largely means Teslas. That suggests there may be something about Teslas that’s causing people to crash more than other cars.

CNN —Hertz, which has made a big push into electric vehicles in recent years, has decided it’s time to cut back. And EV price declines in the new car market have pushed down the resale value of Hertz’s used EV rental cars. Simply put, people are generally willing to pay a certain amount less for a used car than for a new one. Tesla makes up about 80% of Hertz’s EV fleet, and, altogether, EVs make up about 11% of Hertz’s total rental fleet. Again, Teslas, which make up 80% of Hertz’s EV rental fleet, are mostly the problem in both these areas, he has said.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.

The spotlight on the field intensified when Florida linebacker Shemar James appeared to tweak his left knee during pregame warmups.

Julie Ertz was on the clock. On one sunny morning in May, Ertz, a defender for the United States women’s soccer team, rolled out of bed early to dress and feed her infant son, Madden, and pack him for a trip. Then she scrambled to collect her soccer gear and headed off to a meeting with her club team, which was followed by several hours of practice. As Ertz, 31, described this crazy schedule and her daily challenges juggling roles as a soccer star and a first-time mother, her eyes filled with tears. “I didn’t know if I’d be back,” she said of returning to soccer only months after Madden’s birth, in hopes of playing in her third Women’s World Cup.

CNN —Hertz will pay $168 million to settle 364 claims related to the company falsely reporting rental cars as stolen. Some of those involved in lawsuits against Hertz reported being held at gunpoint by police and spending days in jail before the false reports were worked out. In one case, a person claimed it took two years for the case against them to be resolved. The settlement will resolve 95% of pending claims against Hertz regarding these sorts of false arrest claims, the company said. Scherr had said in an April interview with CNBC that the cases involved “1/100 of one percent” of Hertz customer transactions.

CNN —If you subscribe to the theory that Willie Mays was the greatest baseball player who ever lived, consider “Say Hey, Willie Mays!” additional ammunition for bar arguments, as well as a whole lot of fun. Those interviewed include Mays’ godson, Barry Bonds, and note that Mays played a pivotal role in bringing him to the Giants in 1993. Setting that aside, “Say Hey, Willie Mays!” is the kind of treat to help tide over baseball fans through the post-season, giving Mays his due while he’s still around to take a bow. It’s a gift for baseball fans who saw him play before he hung up that golden glove nearly 50 years ago, and maybe even more so, for those who didn’t. “Say Hey, Willie Mays!” premieres November 8 at 9 p.m.
Kenny Cheung, CFO of Hertz Photo: Hertz Global Holdings Inc.WSJ: How far is Hertz impacted by rising interest rates? If underlying interest rates move by 1%, it will impact our profit and loss [statement] by about $30 million net at current debt levels. On the variable portion of the ABS, we have an interest rate cap in place to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. WSJ: Does the rapid rise in interest rates lead to you managing working capital more efficiently? The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by another 0.75 percentage point to combat inflation, Chairman Jerome Powell said on Wednesday.
