96% is not 98%. Agreed the fee is ridiculous, and it does appear it should have been a max of $35, and the update states Hertz corrected the overcharge.

Somehow the author is confused and thinks these charge levels are equal when they are clearly not.

Arguing 98% and 96% are materially different for the purposes of rental car fuel levels is extremely pedantic, as should be clear by how feasible it is to achieve a match to that resolution. And why stop at whole percentage points?

Not only that, that unrealistically strict standard is 10x stricter than gas cars.

on gas gauges the resolution is like 10%ish chunks that aren’t even equal width. My cars top bar lasts about 50% longer than the rest and no I don’t top up.
