Um. I'll have to ask my next-door neighbor, who rented a Tesla in Ottawa last week. (Fun fact: The SO got a semi-panicked phone call: Exactly how does one find out where the nearest Supercharger is located?
. The SO set him straight.)
In any case, I chatted with the man yesterday about his experience. He stated that he didn't get charged and was kind of curious about how Normal Humans handled the situation. I explained the bit about having to give Tesla a credit card number for the account and all.
But he didn't talk about any $35 charges (Canadian) on his bill, so either he didn't notice anything like that or it was subsumed into the rental fee.
Just did a Google search on "Charging a Tesla at Hertz". Which had the following tidbit at the bottom:
---------
Does charging cost money?
Please remember to return your EV with its battery charged to at least 10%.
Although free public charging stations exist, most stations charge a fee based on kWH usage, charging time or percentage of battery charged. Just as gas prices fluctuate, charging fees vary from station to station.
If you charge at a Tesla network station, we’ll pass through your charging-related fees to the credit card you used to rent your Tesla.* And if you charge at a third-party charging station, just pay on the spot.
*See your EV Rental Terms to learn more.

That seems pretty clear.
