With Tesla in the spotlight yet again for hitting $1T Market cap, and with 241,000 vehicles being delivered in Q3, up 73% from a year earlier, we’re really starting to see the adoption and tremendous growth in EV production.
Also in the news, Rental car company Hertz has ordered 100,000 Teslas as part of an ambitious plan to electrify its fleet. A first tranche of Tesla’s Model 3 sedans will be available to rent from Hertz in major US and European markets from early November, said the company in a press statement. The announcement comes just months after Hertz escaped bankruptcy.
In a press statement, Hertz’s interim CEO Mark Fields said: “Electric vehicles are now mainstream, and we’ve only just begun to see rising global demand and interest. The new Hertz is going to lead the way as a mobility company, starting with the largest EV rental fleet in North America and a commitment to grow our EV fleet and provide the best rental and recharging experience for leisure and business customers around the world.”
Factoring these growths and future demnd for EVs, BGA have taken the strategic decision to introduce Steering & Suspension components to their range, incorporating safety critical components for the TESLA Model S, 3 and X’s.
