About

Hertz is one of the world's most recognized vehicle rental brands, founded in 1918 in Chicago and headquartered in Estero, Florida. The company pioneered the car rental industry, building a global network of airport and urban rental locations that became synonymous with business travel mobility. After emerging from bankruptcy in 2021, Hertz has focused on operational restructuring, fleet optimization, and a renewed emphasis on technology and customer experience to compete in a consolidating rental car market dominated by Enterprise and Avis Budget.\n\nHertz operates through its flagship Hertz brand alongside Dollar and Thrifty, covering value and premium segments across 2,000+ locations in North America, Europe, and internationally. The company made a high-profile bet on electric vehicles, amassing one of the largest EV rental fleets in the US, but reversed course in 2024 by selling a significant portion of its Tesla fleet after high repair costs and depreciation eroded EV economics. The strategic retreat highlighted the challenges of fleet electrification at scale and prompted a management overhaul.\n\nHertz generated $8.5B in revenue in 2024 and continues to hold the third-largest position in the US car rental market. The company faces a complex turnaround: rebuilding profitability after the EV reversal, managing fleet costs in a normalized used-car market, and investing in digital and loyalty capabilities to compete with larger rivals. Hertz's brand strength, global footprint, and airport location network remain durable assets as management executes its restructuring plan.
