When I looked into this, renting an electric car from Hertz in the UK, the only chargers I would have had access to were public ones that wanted something like 85p/KWh. I would have spent an absolute fortune compared to petrol for the trip that I took.

Sorry - to be clear I meant if Hertz owned their own chargers and pumped in the same amount of electricity as they would've put in petrol. Not a 3rd party charging rate. Domestic rates today on moneysupermarket.com are 24p/kWh, and I imagine Hertz could get it cheaper.
