I know for a fact that a ton of them went to a taxi company set up by the VinGroup conglomerate.

1st Gear: Tesla really shafted Hertz with their price cuts. It doesn’t help when Tesla’s service centers are few and far between and their wait times are not conducive to the kind of quick turnaround rental companies need.
