Of course, going to a dealer and taking a physical test drive is a must, but there's a lot to be learned before heading out the door. The Hertz Car Sales website "Shop EVs" button recently listed 1,475 of the 1,638 used EVs listed as "Hertz Certified." There were 1,186 Teslas, 157 Volvos, 104 Mercedes, 125 Chevrolet Bolts and far fewer all-electric Kias and Suburus.
