“Hertz also experienced higher repair and tire costs with its EV fleet.”
Just read about a surprised (shocked?) EV owner who learned his EV with 7,000 miles on it needed a $1,500 new set of tires. EV tires carry so much more weight they have to be much more expensive to achieve even that ridiculously low mileage.
If tires don’t go up in price at all, that’s $21,428.57 worth of tires to drive 100,000 miles!
EV tires need stronger sidewalls like trailer tires...............
