Elizabeth Warren is raising concerns to Tesla Board Chairman Robyn Denholm that its Board of Directors failed to meet its legal responsibility to protect Tesla and uphold its fiduciary duty to shareholders from Elon Musk's actions after he bought Twitter.

Crazy, been hearing all today bout how Hertz have 'dumped' Tesla because reasons and they are selling 20,000

Except they are currently selling 27,721 vehicles.
-661 are Teslas (2%)
-5394 are Chevrolets
-5301 are Fords
-2890 are Nissans
-2231 are Toyotas
-Sales also include Mercedes, Porsche and many others

The teslas are high mileage vehicles they have rented to uber drivers, this is pretty standard behavior for rental companies..

A brief update on my #battery driven #studio. It looks like I'm going to have to invest in #solar cells right now after all, as the #electricity here on this beautiful island is not only exceptionally bad or #unstable in terms of #voltage but also in terms of #frequency, which makes it difficult for the #inverter to recognize a #powergrid as present at all. 😵‍💫️ Recently, the #volts have dropped at times below 140 while the frequency has hovered beween 40 to 55 #hertz.

Tesla fans may soon be able to snap up one of the company's famously pricey cars for roughly 39% off from Hertz.

is selling 20,000 used due to high repair costs
https://arstechnica.com/cars/2024/01/hertz-is-selling-20000-used-evs-due-to-high-repair-costs/

"Additionally, its rental EVs were damaged or crashed more often, and the much higher cost of repairs for vehicles—on average about 20 percent higher than other EVs—has meant that Hertz's Teslas earn it less money per vehicle than its other rentals.

Consequently, it's selling off 20,000 EVs over the course of this year. Currently, the company has over 700 EVs for sale"

Warum sich der Autovermieter Hertz von Tausenden E-Autos trennt

Der US-Autovermieter Hertz will Tausende E-Autos durch Verbrennermodelle ersetzen. Das Unternehmen begründet dies vor allem mit hohen Kosten. Welche Folgen hat die Entscheidung für die Elektromobilität?

Calling out rental cars for their extremely shitty check in experience. The mobile app just straight up fails with no response for the user - off screen spinner, mobile web fails identically as well. Desktop web fails because some geniuses decided that using native camera SDKs is too much work, and whatever crap they're using takes repeatedly blurry pictures of my driver's license, which then fails their check in process. Heckuva job, Brownie.

I am surprised to learn that ’s bet on is not paying off.

I know people are upset with , but I did not think it would affect demand for electric vehicle rentals.

#Hertz is being sued by a nonprofit law firm alleging that the rental car company violated the #CivilRights of #PeopleWithDisabilities who need #HandControls to operate a vehicle.

Hand controls, according to #DisabilityRights Advocates, generally consist of a mechanism that allows drivers to accelerate and brake using one hand, and a “spinner knob” that allows for steering with the other hand.
