I actually rented a Model 3 from Hertz in Santa Monica a month ago. Yes, you can use the supercharger network; Hertz will bill you back for any charges incurred. Obviously, you wont be able to use the Tesla app (which is only for owners); so you'll have to use the keycard to open and start the car. All in all its a great rental car. Also keep in mind that Teslas no longer come with chargers to plug the car into a regular outlet; so you'll actually need to use superchargers in order to charge it (unless you can borrow own from somone who has a Tesla portable EVSE)

Interestingly, Enterprise also rents Teslas but only to owners; apparently they dont have a similar arrangement as Hertz does with a corporate account for supercharging.
