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.
租車公司對電動汽車（EV）的熱情已經不如以前，因爲他們發現這些車難以以合理的價格轉手。
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，租車巨頭赫茲全球控股公司（NASDAQ:HTZ）在1月份縮減了購買10萬輛EV的計劃，因爲看到它們的二手車價值下跌得比預期快得多。
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.
《紐約時報》報道，二手EV失去太多價值的一個主要原因是特斯拉公司（NASDAQ:TSLA）去年降低了新車價格，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.
這導致許多租車公司苦苦掙扎，爲了以大幅折扣的價格重新銷售電動汽車，並且不願意再購買更多的電動汽車。
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S&P Global Mobility的數據，今年到目前爲止，EV製造商已經將他們的汽車和卡車的1.4％出售給租賃公司，而2023年，他們的出售量還達到了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.
《紐約時報》報道稱，租車公司還難以以獲利的方式租賃電動汽車，因爲大多數租車公司缺乏充電站，並且由於許多租車人低估了EV的加速度而發生事故，保險費也提高了。
Meanwhile, some companies found they couldn't get spare parts for EVs as quickly as they could for gasoline cars.
同時，一些公司發現他們不能像爲汽油車那樣迅速取得EV的備件。
