Electric cars are actually a very good fit for many rentals. Thinking through my last 5 rentals.
A wedding that was 1 hour from an airport, ~100 miles RT.
A ski trip where I wanted to drive from Denver to my AirBnB near Winter Park Colorado, ~200 miles RT.
A hiking trip where I needed a second car for a point-to-point car shuttle (New Hampshire!), ~120 miles RT.
A bachelor party where I needed to drive from the airport to a trailhead then to an AirBnB then back to airport, ~150 miles RT.
A national park trip to the Grand Canyon, ~500 miles RT.
Each of those scenarios would have been 1 full charge of a Tesla round-trip, with the exception of the Grand Canyon. Maybe not the ski trip since it's mountainous and cold weather kills the battery so 200 miles might be a stretch, but I could have trickle-charged at my AirBnB. So basically I can see how many quick rental car needs are met by EVs, plus no dealing with filling with gas!
