"Hertz said Tuesday that it’s already receiving cars under its $4.2 billion plan to add the Teslas through 2022, without responding directly to Musk’s tweet. The order is equivalent to about a tenth of what Tesla can produce annually.

“As we announced last week, Hertz has made an initial order of 100,000 Tesla electric vehicles and is investing in new EV charging infrastructure across the company’s global operations,” Hertz said in an emailed statement Tuesday. “Deliveries of the Teslas already have started. We are seeing very strong early demand for Teslas in our rental fleet, which reflects market demand for Tesla vehicles.”
