Want to try out an all-electric car for a few days before you decide to buy? Enterprise Rent-A-Car is going to start renting Nissan Leaf electrics beginning in January.
There will only be 500 initially and they will be dispersed among eight cities: Phoenix; Tucson; Knoxville, Tenn.; Nashville; San Diego; Los Angeles; Portland, Ore.; and Seattle. Charging stations will be installed at select locations, including several of the Enterprise “hybrid branches” – designated locations that offer hybrids and other environmentally friendly rental options.
Of course, you can charge them yourself if you can find a wall plug anywhere, but 110-volt charging will take a long time. No word yet on how much Enterprise is going to charge for the experience.
