Rental Car Companies Back Away From Hard-To-Resell Electric Vehicles
Rental Car Companies Back Away From Hard-To-Resell Electric Vehicles
Rental car companies are not as energized as they used to be about electric vehicles (EVs), having found out that they are hard to resell at a decent price.
租車公司發現很難以合理的價格轉售電動汽車（EV），因此不像以前那樣充滿活力。
In January, rental car giant Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:HTZ) scaled back plans to buy 100,000 EVs after seeing that their resale plummeted much faster than expected, the New York Times reported.
據《紐約時報》報道，1月份，租車巨頭赫茲環球控股公司（納斯達克股票代碼：HTZ）縮減了購買10萬輛電動汽車的計劃，原因是其轉售量暴跌速度遠快於預期。
A main reason why used EVs lose so much value is because Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) lowered the prices on new models last year to boost sales, the New York Times reported.
據《紐約時報》報道，二手電動汽車損失如此之多的主要原因是特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）去年降低了新車型的價格以促進銷售。
This has left many rental car outfits scrambling to resell EVs at deep discounts and apprehensive to start buying more of them.
這使許多租車公司爭先恐後地以大幅折扣轉售電動汽車，並擔心開始購買更多電動汽車。
EV manufacturers have sold 1.4% of their cars and trucks to rental companies so far this year, down from selling 4% of them in 2023, according to S&P Global Mobility. So far this year, that number is just 1.4 percent.
根據標普全球交通的數據，今年到目前爲止，電動汽車製造商已向租賃公司出售了1.4％的汽車和卡車，低於2023年的4％。今年到目前爲止，這個數字僅爲1.4％。

Rental car companies have also had a difficult time renting EVs at a profit because most of them lack charging stations and insurance premiums have increased as many renters have underestimated EVs' acceleration and gotten into accidents, the New York Times reported.
據《紐約時報》報道，租車公司也很難租用電動汽車以獲利，因爲其中大多數缺乏充電站，而且由於許多租戶低估了電動汽車的加速併發生了事故，保險費也有所增加。
Meanwhile, some companies found they couldn't get spare parts for EVs as quickly as they could for gasoline cars.
同時，一些公司發現他們無法像汽油車那樣儘快獲得電動汽車的備件。
