Background Disclosure [Abstract]
Background	Background Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("Hertz Global" when including its subsidiaries and "Hertz Holdings" excluding its subsidiaries) was incorporated in Delaware in 2015 to serve as the top-level holding company for Rental Car Intermediate Holdings, LLC which wholly owns The Hertz Corporation ("Hertz" and interchangeably with Hertz Global, the "Company"), Hertz Global's primary operating company. Hertz was incorporated in Delaware in 1967 and is a successor to corporations that have been engaged in the vehicle rental and leasing business since 1918. Hertz operates its vehicle rental business globally primarily through the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands from company-owned, licensee and franchisee locations in the U.S., Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, The Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and New Zealand. Through its Donlen subsidiary, Hertz provides vehicle leasing and fleet management services. On June 30, 2016, former Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. (for periods on or prior to June 30, 2016, “Old Hertz Holdings” and for periods after June 30, 2016, “Herc Holdings”) completed a spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) of its global vehicle rental business through a dividend to stockholders of record of Old Hertz Holdings as of the close of business on June 22, 2016, the record date for the distribution, of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc. (“New Hertz”), which was re-named Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. in connection with the Spin-Off, on a one-to-five basis. New Hertz, or Hertz Global, is the “accounting successor” to Old Hertz Holdings. As such, the 2016 financial information of Hertz reflects the equipment rental business as a discontinued operation and the 2016 financial information of Hertz Global reflects the equipment rental business and certain parent legal entities as discontinued operations. See Note 3 , " Discontinued Operations ," for additional information. Unless noted otherwise, information disclosed in these notes to the consolidated financial statements pertain to the continuing operations of Hertz and Hertz Global.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Basis of Presentation The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The December 31, 2016 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company's Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Form 10-K"), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 6, 2017. Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. In the event that the Company is a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the variable interest entity are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Out Of Period Adjustments The Company identified a misstatement in its prior period financial statements, related to the income tax provision, that it corrected in the second quarter of 2017. The cumulative impact of the adjustment was an increase in net loss of approximately $10 million . There was no impact to pre-tax loss from continuing operations. The misstatement relates to an error in the tax provision for U.S. income of a foreign equity investment transaction for fiscal year 2016. The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing the materiality of the item and determined that the misstatement was not material to any prior period and not material to the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . Correction of Errors The Company identified classification errors within the investing section of the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . One of the errors related to the Company's Donlen operations and was previously disclosed in the Company's 2016 Form 10‑K. The second error related to the Company's operations in Brazil and was previously disclosed in the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017. The Company considered both quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing the materiality of the classification errors individually, and in the aggregate, and determined that the classification errors were not material and revised the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 accordingly. Correction of the errors decreased both revenue earning vehicles expenditures and proceeds from disposals of revenue earning vehicles by $540 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and did not impact total operating, investing or financing cash flows. These revisions had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016 or its condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 . Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including income taxes, forfeitures, minimum statutory withholding requirements, and classifications within the statement of cash flows. Most significantly, the new guidance eliminates the need to track tax “windfalls” in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recorded within income tax expense. The Company adopted this guidance in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2017. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated balance sheet was a modified retrospective basis. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset with an offsetting entry to the opening accumulated deficit to recognize net operating loss carryforwards, net of a valuation allowance, attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation that had not been previously recognized. Additionally, the Company has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur. The impact to the condensed consolidated opening balance sheet as of January 1, 2017 of adopting this guidance was as follows (in millions): Hertz Global Deferred income taxes, net Total liabilities Accumulated deficit Total equity Total liabilities and equity As of December 31, 2016 $ 2,149 $ 18,080 $ (882 ) $ 1,075 $ 19,155 Record deferred tax asset (49 ) (49 ) 49 49 — As of January 1, 2017 $ 2,100 $ 18,031 $ (833 ) $ 1,124 $ 19,155 Hertz Deferred income taxes, net Total liabilities Accumulated deficit Total equity Total liabilities and equity As of December 31, 2016 $ 2,149 $ 18,080 $ (1,867 ) $ 1,075 $ 19,155 Record deferred tax asset (49 ) (49 ) 49 49 — As of January 1, 2017 $ 2,100 $ 18,031 $ (1,818 ) $ 1,124 $ 19,155 The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statement of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to excess tax benefits or deficiencies is on a prospective basis. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to employee taxes paid is on a retrospective basis and adoption of the guidance did not impact the Company's cash flows. Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance that addresses the treatment of certain transactions in statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified. These items include, but are not limited to, debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, proceeds from the settlement of life insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, and distributions received from equity method investees. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a retrospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the implied fair value of goodwill to measure an impairment. Rather, a goodwill impairment charge will be calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Scope of Modification Accounting for Share-Based Payment Awards In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance that amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The guidance describes the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards where modification accounting is required to be applied. Modification accounting is not required if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, in the second quarter of 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Not Yet Adopted Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance applies to all contracts with customers except for leases, insurance contracts, financial instruments, certain nonmonetary exchanges and certain guarantees. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue from customers for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. Also, additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The FASB has issued several amendments and updates to the new revenue standard (collectively, “Topic 606”), including guidance related to when an entity should recognize revenue gross as a principal or net as an agent and how an entity should identify performance obligations. As amended, Topic 606 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and allows for full retrospective adoption applied to all periods presented or a modified retrospective adoption with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings recognized at the date of initial application. The Company intends to adopt Topic 606 when effective on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts. Prior periods will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Company has reached conclusions on several key accounting assessments related to its revenue recognition, however, it is still finalizing its assessment and quantifying the impacts that adoption of Topic 606 will have on the accounting for its loyalty programs, such as Hertz Gold Plus Rewards, as further described below. The Company is still in the process of determining the level of disaggregated revenue information that it will include in its disclosures and continues to evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting to ensure that controls are in place to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption of Topic 606. Vehicle Rental Operations The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities, wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset, will be accounted for under Topic 606, effective January 1, 2018, until the adoption of the new lease guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP, as described in more detail in the "Leases" disclosure below. Recognition of revenue from other forms of rental related activities that represent a service will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606. Recognition of revenue earned through the licensing of the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands under franchise agreements (“franchise fees”) is expected to remain consistent with current revenue recognition guidance except for initial and renewal franchise fees. Currently, initial franchise fees are recorded as deferred income when received and are recognized as revenue when all material upfront services and conditions related to the franchise fee have been substantially performed and renewal franchise fees are recognized as revenue when the license agreements are effective and collectability is reasonably assured. Upon adoption, revenue from initial and renewal franchise fees that relate to a future contract term, for franchises in effect as of January 1, 2018, will be deferred and recognized over the remaining contract term. However, this amount will not be material. The Company believes that the most significant impact relates to its accounting for reward points earned by customers under its loyalty programs. Upon adoption of Topic 606, each transaction which generates reward points will result in the deferral of revenue equivalent to the retail value of the redemption of the loyalty reward points. The associated revenue will be recognized at the time the customer redeems the loyalty reward points. Under the current guidance, there is no revenue deferral and the Company records an expense associated with the incremental cost of providing the future rental at the time when the reward points are earned. The Company is in the process of quantifying the impact of adoption of Topic 606. Fleet Leasing and Management Operations The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset will be accounted for under the existing lease guidance until the adoption of the new lease guidance, as described in more detail in the "Leases" disclosure below. Administration fees and service revenue attributable to the Company's Donlen operations will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance (Topic "842") establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability based on the present value of future lease payments for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Topic 842 also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements. Additionally, enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases are required which provide financial statement users the ability to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Topic 842 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. The Company intends to adopt this guidance, in accordance with the effective date, on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for both lessees and lessors for existing leases at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating whether to avail itself of allowable practicable expedients during transition. Lessee Adoption of Topic 842 will result in a material increase in the Company's lease-related assets and liabilities on its balance sheet, primarily for leases of rental locations and other assets. Additionally, adoption of this guidance will impact the statement of cash flows with respect to the presentation of the Company's operating activities, but is not expected to impact its presentation of investing or financing activities. Adoption of Topic 842 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has reached conclusions on key accounting assessments related to its leases and is performing an analysis of its lease portfolio to ensure proper application of the new guidance including implementation of internal controls over financial reporting. Lessor The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental and leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is within the scope of this guidance and that additional disclosures regarding lease revenue are required upon adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the breakdown of its vehicle rental revenues into lease and non-lease components. There is no impact to the nature, timing or recognition of rental lease revenue upon adoption of this guidance. Restricted Cash In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies existing guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The guidance requires entities to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in its cash and cash equivalents balances in the statement of cash flows. Under current guidance, the Company presents these transfers within the cash flows from investing and financing sections in its consolidated statements of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a retrospective transition method. Adoption of this guidance will impact the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Company's statement of cash flows. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the amount of cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows will increase by $1.0 billion . Additionally, transfers between restricted and unrestricted cash will no longer be a component of the Company's investing or financing activities. Clarifying the Definition of a Business In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance requires an evaluation of whether substantially all of the fair value of assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction does not qualify as a business. The guidance also requires an acquired business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a prospective transition method. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Clarifying the Scope of Nonfinancial Asset Derecognition and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the scope of the established guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The new guidance may be adopted on either a full or modified retrospective basis. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to (1) disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present the current-service-cost component with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement and (2) present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The guidance also requires entities to disclose the income statement lines that contain the other components if they are not presented on described separate lines. In addition, only the service-cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization, which is a change from current practice, under which entities capitalize the aggregate net benefit cost when applicable. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance affecting the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement requires use of the retrospective method of adoption and the guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost to the service cost component requires use of the prospective method of adoption. Adoption of this guidance will result in a reclassification of certain amounts from direct vehicle and operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense to other (income) expense, net which does not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect the reclassified amounts to be material.

Business Combinations and Divestitures [Abstract]
Acquisitions and Divestitures	Acquisitions and Divestitures Divestitures CAR Inc. Investment In March 2016, the Company sold 204 million shares of common stock of CAR Inc., a publicly traded company on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and extended its commercial agreement with CAR Inc. to 2023, in exchange for $240 million , of which $233 million was allocated to the sale of shares based on the fair value of those shares. The sale of shares resulted in a pre-tax gain of $75 million which has been recognized and recorded in the Company's corporate operations and is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Additionally, $7 million of the proceeds were allocated to the extension of the commercial agreement which have been deferred and are being recognized over the remaining term of the commercial agreement. The sale of the shares reduced the Company's ownership interest in CAR Inc. to 1.7% and eliminated the Company's ability to exercise significant influence over CAR Inc. As a result, the Company classifies the investment as an available for sale security which is presented within prepaid expenses and other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016. In February 2017, the Company sold its remaining shares of common stock of CAR Inc. and no longer has an ownership interest in the entity. Brazil Operations During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company, along with certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement to sell Car Rental Systems do Brasil Locação de Veiculos Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company located in Brazil ("Brazil Operations"), to Localiza Fleet S.A. (“Localiza”), a corporation headquartered in Brazil. The Brazil Operations are reported in the Company's International Rental Car reporting segment. As a result of the then pending sale, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities being sold were written down to fair value less costs to sell, which resulted in an impairment charge of $18 million based upon the estimated agreed-upon sales price and the Brazil operations were classified as held for sale in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 . The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of the Brazil Operations as of December 31, 2016 were as follows: (In millions) December 31, 2016 ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents $ 1 Receivables, net 11 Prepaid expenses and other assets 5 Revenue earning vehicles, net 86 Property and equipment, net 1 Intangibles 1 Deferred income taxes, net 6 Assets held for sale $ 111 LIABILITIES Accounts payable $ 11 Accrued liabilities 6 Liabilities held for sale $ 17 In August 2017, the Company completed the sale of its Brazil Operations to Localiza and received proceeds of $115 million , of which $13 million was placed in escrow to secure certain indemnification obligations. The proceeds from the sale are subject to post-closing adjustments. As a result of the sale, the Company recorded a $6 million gain, net of the impact of foreign currency adjustments, which is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. As part of the sale, both companies entered into referral and brand cooperation agreements to govern their ongoing relationship which have an initial term of twenty years with an option to extend for another twenty years. The alliance will also involve the exchange of knowledge in areas of technology, customer service and operational excellence.

The expected final maturity date is the date by which Hertz and investors in the relevant indebtedness expect the relevant indebtedness to be repaid. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable.

The initial maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the end of the revolving period for such series, at which time the related notes begin to amortize monthly by an amount equal to the lease collections payable to that series. To the extent the revolving period already has ended, the initial maturity date reflected is October 2017. The second maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the date by which Hertz and the investors in the related series expect such series of notes to be repaid in full, which is based upon various assumptions made at the time of pricing of such notes, including the contractual amortization of the underlying leases as well as the assumed rate of prepayments of such leases. Such maturity reference is to the “expected final maturity date” as opposed to the subsequent “legal final maturity date”. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. Although the underlying lease cash flows that support the repayment of the HFLF Medium Term Notes may vary, the cash flows generally are expected to approximate a straight line amortization of the related notes from the initial maturity date through the expected final maturity date. In June 2017, the Company redeemed all $250 million of its outstanding 4.25% Senior Notes due April 2018 and terminated $150 million of commitments under the senior secured revolving credit facility ("Senior RCF"), as further described below, and recorded $8 million of charges for early redemption premiums and the write off of deferred financing costs. The Company is highly leveraged and a substantial portion of its liquidity needs arise from debt service on its indebtedness and from the funding of its costs of operations, acquisitions and capital expenditures. The Company’s practice is to maintain sufficient liquidity through cash from operations, credit facilities and other financing arrangements, to mitigate any adverse impact on its operations resulting from adverse financial market conditions. As of September 30, 2017, approximately $2.1 billion of vehicle debt and $16 million of non-vehicle debt was due to mature between October 1, 2017 and September 30, 2018 and the Company was in compliance with its financial maintenance covenant under the Senior RCF, see "Covenant Compliance" below. In November 2017, the Company amended its Senior Facilities (as defined below), terminated $383 million of commitments under the Senior RCF, entered into a standalone $400 million letter of credit facility (the “Letter of Credit Facility”), extended the maturities of several vehicle debt facilities and provided an irrevocable notice to the holders of its $450 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 6.75% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) of its election to redeem in full all of the outstanding 2019 Notes and deposited funds with the trustee under the indenture governing the 2019 Notes to effect such redemption on the redemption date, as further described in Note 19, "Subsequent Events." The amendment to the Senior Facilities, together with the aforementioned commitment reductions under the Senior RCF, created immediate debt incurrence capacity of $542 million under the $2.4 billion credit facilities basket contained in the Senior Facilities as long as such debt incurred is, among other things, junior to the Company’s first-lien debt. If the Company elects to utilize such capacity, the proceeds from such newly incurred debt would not be required to be used to refinance debt and may be used for working capital, capital expenditures and other purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. To the extent the Company elects to utilize the Letter of Credit Facility for letters of credit issued, or relating to liabilities or obligations incurred, in the ordinary course of business, the Company would further increase such debt incurrence capacity, and the proceeds of any debt that the Company elects to incur utilizing such additional capacity would also be available for working capital, capital expenditures and other purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. Availability under the Letter of Credit Facility is limited to an amount equal to the amount of commitments terminated under the Senior RCF. Subsequent to the completion of the aforementioned transactions in November 2017, approximately $1.7 billion of vehicle debt and $23 million of non-vehicle debt is due to mature prior to September 30, 2018. The Company has reviewed its debt facilities that will mature within this timeframe and determined that it is probable that the Company will be able, and has the intent, to refinance these facilities at such times as the Company determines appropriate prior to their maturities. Non-Vehicle Debt Senior Facilities In June 2017, Hertz terminated $150 million of commitments under the Senior RCF, such that after giving effect to such termination the Senior RCF consists of a $1.55 billion senior secured revolving credit facility. In February 2017, certain terms of the credit agreement governing the $700 million senior secured term facility (the "Senior Term Loan") and the Senior RCF (together with the Senior Term Loan, the "Senior Facilities") were amended with the consent of the required lenders under such credit agreement. The amendment, among other things, (i) amended the terms of the financial maintenance covenant for the Senior RCF to test, when applicable, Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio in lieu of Hertz’s consolidated total net corporate leverage ratio, (ii) provided that Hertz shall not make dividends and certain restricted payments unless a leverage ratio test is satisfied, (iii) added a new covenant restricting the incurrence of certain corporate indebtedness, (iv) capped the amount of unrestricted cash that may be netted for purposes of calculating the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio at $500 million unless a specified consolidated total gross corporate leverage ratio is met for a specified period and (v) amended certain financial definitions relating to the foregoing. Senior Notes In June 2017, Hertz redeemed all $250 million of its outstanding 4.25% Senior Notes due April 2018 (the "April 2018 Notes"). Senior Second Priority Secured Notes In June 2017, Hertz issued $1.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Senior Second Priority Secured Notes due 2022 (the "Senior Second Priority Secured Notes"), the proceeds of which are restricted under the terms of the credit agreement governing the Senior Facilities, primarily related to the repayment of indebtedness. In June 2017, the Company utilized approximately $266 million of the proceeds to pay the outstanding principal and early redemption premium in connection with the redemption of the April 2018 Notes and fees and expenses in connection with the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes. In June 2017, the Company also exercised its right to reduce the amount of available commitments under its Senior RCF by $150 million . As of September 30, 2017 , approximately $833 million in proceeds remained from the issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes and is included in restricted cash and cash equivalents, non-vehicle in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Vehicle Debt HVF II U.S. Vehicle Variable Funding Notes HVF II Series 2017-A Notes : In May 2017, Hertz Vehicle Financing II LP, a bankruptcy remote, indirect, wholly owned, special purpose subsidiary of Hertz ("HVF II") issued the Series 2017-A Variable Funding Rental Car Asset Backed Notes (the “HVF II Series 2017-A Notes”) with an aggregate maximum principal amount of $500 million and a maturity date of October 2018. HVF II Series 2013 Notes : In February 2017, HVF II extended the maturities of the HVF II Series 2013-A Notes and the HVF II Series 2013-B (the "HVF II Series 2013 Notes") Notes from October 2017 to January 2019. In April 2017, HVF II increased the commitments of the HVF II Series 2013 Notes by $250 million . In June 2017, HVF II transitioned approximately $300 million of commitments available under the HVF II Series 2013-B Notes to the HVF Series 2013-A Notes. After giving effect to the above transactions, the aggregate maximum principal amount of the HVF II Series 2013-A Notes and HVF II 2013-B Notes was approximately $3.4 billion and $291 million , respectively. In September 2017, the net proceeds from the issuance of the HVF II Series 2017-1 Notes and HVF II Series 2017-2 Notes (as defined below) were used to repay $770 million of the outstanding principal amount of the HVF II Series 2013-A Notes. HVF II U.S. Vehicle Medium Term Notes HVF II Series 2017-1 Notes and HVF II Series 2017-2 Notes: In September 2017, HVF II issued the Series 2017-1 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D (collectively, the "HVF II Series 2017-1 Notes") and the Series 2017-2 Rental Car Asset Backed Notes, Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D (collectively, the "HVF II Series 2017-2 Notes") in an aggregate principal amount of $820 million . There is subordination within the HVF II Series 2017-1 Notes and the HVF II Series 2017-2 Notes based on class. An affiliate of HVF II purchased the HVF II Series 2017-2 Class D Notes and as a result, approximately $20 million of the aggregate principal amount is eliminated in consolidation. Net proceeds from the issuance of the HVF II Series 2017-1 and HVF II Series 2017-2 Notes were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the HVF II Series 2013-A Notes. HVF II Various Series Class D Notes: In August 2017, Hertz sold the below notes, which it had acquired at the time of the respective HVF II initial offerings and which were previously eliminated in consolidation, to third parties. The interest terms and the maturity of the notes sold remained consistent with the terms per the respective initial offerings. The Class D Notes are subordinate to the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes of their respective series.

HFLF Series 2017-1 Notes: In April 2017, HFLF, a bankruptcy remote, indirect, wholly-owned, special purpose subsidiary of Donlen, issued the Series 2017-1 Asset-Backed Notes, Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, and Class E (collectively, the “HFLF Series 2017-1 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $500 million . There is subordination within the HFLF Series 2017-1 Notes based on class. The HFLF Series 2017-1 Notes are fixed rate, except for the Class A-1 Notes which are floating rate and carry an interest rate based upon a spread to one-month LIBOR. The proceeds of this issuance, together with available cash, were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the HFLF Series 2013-2 Notes. Vehicle Debt-Other European Revolving Credit Facility In February 2017, HHN BV amended its credit agreement (the "European Revolving Credit Facility") to extend the maturity of €235 million of the aggregate maximum borrowings available from October 2017 to January 2019. Canadian Securitizations In February 2017, TCL Funding Limited Partnership, a bankruptcy remote, indirect, wholly-owned, special purpose subsidiary of Hertz ("Funding LP") amended its securitization platform in Canada (the "Canadian Securitization") to extend the maturity of CAD $350 million aggregate maximum borrowings available from January 2018 to January 2019. Capitalized Leases-U.K. Leveraged Financing In February 2017, the capitalized lease financings outstanding in the United Kingdom ("U.K. Leveraged Financing") were amended to extend the maturity of £250 million aggregate maximum borrowings available from October 2017 to January 2019. In May 2017, the U.K. Leveraged Financing was amended to provide for aggregate maximum leasing capacity (subject to asset availability) of up to £287.5 million during the peak season, for a seasonal commitment period into September 2017. Following the expiration of the seasonal commitment period, aggregate maximum borrowings available under the U.K Leveraged Financing will revert to up to £250 million . See also Note 19 , " Subsequent Events " regarding financing transactions occurring subsequent to September 30, 2017 . Borrowing Capacity and Availability Borrowing capacity and availability comes from the Company's "revolving credit facilities," which are a combination of variable funding asset-backed securitization facilities, cash-flow-based revolving credit facilities and asset-based revolving credit facilities. Creditors under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility have a claim on a specific pool of assets as collateral. The Company's ability to borrow under each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility is a function of, among other things, the value of the assets in the relevant collateral pool. With respect to each such asset-backed securitization facility and asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to the amount of debt it can borrow given a certain pool of assets as the borrowing base. The Company refers to "Remaining Capacity" as the maximum principal amount of debt permitted to be outstanding under the respective facility (i.e., with respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the amount of debt the Company could borrow assuming it possessed sufficient assets as collateral) less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility. With respect to a variable funding asset-backed securitization facility or asset-based revolving credit facility, the Company refers to "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" as the lower of Remaining Capacity or the borrowing base less the principal amount of debt then-outstanding under such facility (i.e., the amount of debt that can be borrowed given the collateral possessed at such time). With respect to the Senior RCF, "Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation" is the same as "Remaining Capacity" since borrowings under the Senior RCF are not subject to a borrowing base. The following facilities were available to the Company as of September 30, 2017 , and are presented net of any outstanding letters of credit: (In millions) Remaining Capacity Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation Non-Vehicle Debt Senior RCF $ 644 $ 644 Total Non-Vehicle Debt 644 644 Vehicle Debt U.S. Vehicle RCF 2 2 HVF II U.S. Vehicle Variable Funding Notes 1,955 — HFLF Variable Funding Notes 280 5 European Revolving Credit Facility — — European Securitization 20 — Canadian Securitization — — Australian Securitization 63 1 Capitalized Leases — — New Zealand RCF 8 — Total Vehicle Debt 2,328 8 Total $ 2,972 $ 652 Letters of Credit As of September 30, 2017 , there were outstanding standby letters of credit totaling $799 million . Such letters of credit have been issued primarily to support the Company's insurance programs, vehicle rental concessions and leaseholds as well as to provide credit enhancement for its asset-backed securitization facilities. Of this amount $786 million was issued under the Senior RCF. As of September 30, 2017 , none of the letters of credit have been drawn upon. Special Purpose Entities Substantially all of the revenue earning vehicles and certain related assets are owned by special purpose entities, or are encumbered in favor of the lenders under the various credit facilities, other secured financings and asset-backed securities programs. None of such assets (including the assets owned by Hertz Vehicle Financing II LP, Hertz Vehicle Financing LLC, Rental Car Finance LLC, DNRS II LLC, HFLF, Donlen Trust and various international subsidiaries that facilitate the Company's international securitizations) are available to satisfy the claims of general creditors. These special purpose entities are consolidated variable interest entities, of which the Company is the primary beneficiary, whose sole purpose is to provide commitments to lend in various currencies subject to borrowing bases comprised of revenue earning vehicles and related assets of certain of Hertz International, Ltd.'s subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , its International Vehicle Financing No. 1 B.V., International Vehicle Financing No. 2 B.V. and HA Funding Pty, Ltd. variable interest entities had total assets of $775 million and $454 million , respectively, primarily comprised of loans receivable and revenue earning vehicles, and total liabilities of $775 million and $454 million , respectively, primarily comprised of debt. Covenant Compliance In February 2017, Hertz amended the terms of the financial maintenance covenant contained in the Senior RCF to test, when applicable, Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio. The amended financial covenant provides that Hertz’s consolidated first lien net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior RCF, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter (the "Covenant Leverage Ratio"), may not exceed the ratios indicated below: Fiscal Quarter(s) Ending Maximum Ratio September 30, 2017 3.25 to 1.00 December 31, 2017 and each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 ending thereafter 3.00 to 1.00 At September 30, 2017 , Hertz was in compliance with the Covenant Leverage Ratio.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Intangible Assets As a result of declines in revenue and profitability of the Company and a decline in the share price of Hertz Global's common stock, the Company tested the recoverability of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of June 30, 2017, as further described below. No events have occurred requiring the Company to test the recoverability of its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets subsequent to its analysis at June 30, 2017. The Company will perform its annual impairment analysis of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles as of October 1, 2017 during the fourth quarter. Goodwill The Company performed a goodwill impairment analysis as of June 30, 2017 using the income approach, a measurement using level 3 inputs under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. In performing the impairment analysis, the Company leveraged long-term strategic plans, which are based on strategic initiatives for future profitability growth. The weighted average cost of capital used in the discounted cash flow model was calculated based upon the fair value of the Company's debt and stock price with a debt to equity ratio comparable to the vehicle rental car industry. The results of the Company's analysis indicated that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit was substantially in excess of its carrying value, therefore, the Company determined that its goodwill was not impaired. Intangible Assets The Company performed an impairment analysis as of June 30, 2017 of its indefinite-lived intangible assets using the relief from royalty method, a measurement using level 3 inputs under the GAAP fair value hierarchy. As a result of the analysis, the Company concluded that there was an impairment of the Dollar Thrifty tradename in its U.S. Rental Car segment and recorded a charge of $86 million . The impairment was largely due to a decrease in long-term revenue projections coupled with an increase in the weighted average cost of capital. Subsequent to recording the impairment charge, the carrying value of the Dollar Thrifty tradename was approximately $934 million , representing its estimated fair value. A change of 1 percentage point to the weighted average cost of capital assumption used in the impairment analysis would have impacted the impairment charge by approximately $80 million .

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The non-cash stock-based compensation expense associated with the Hertz Holdings stock-based compensation plans is recorded at the Hertz level. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company's board of directors adopted the 2017 Executive Incentive Compensation Plan ("2017 EICP"). The provisions of the plan provide for the pay out of any bonus earned in either cash or performance stock units ("PSUs") for certain groups of employees. The decision regarding the form of payout will be made after the bonus has been earned and as such, the grant date of the PSUs is not established until vested. The potential PSU awards will be based on a monetary amount equivalent to a percentage of employees’ salaries that will be based on the achievement of specific performance metrics in 2017. The specific monetary amount will be calculated at the time of grant. The PSUs are intended to be granted in place of cash bonus awards and, therefore, qualify as equity awards. Compensation cost for these awards is recognized over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the award at the end of each reporting period. The Company calculates the anticipated number of awards to be granted based on the bonus dollars expected to be earned divided by the stock price as of the reporting date. The anticipated awards are used to estimate the compensation expense as of the reporting date. Compensation charges will accumulate as a liability until the grant date, at which time the liability will be reclassified to equity. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company recognized approximately $1 million and $5 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with the 2017 EICP. The Company expects approximately 274,000 shares will be granted in connection with this program based on the Company’s stock price as of September 30, 2017 . Under the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, (the "2016 Omnibus Plan"), during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , Hertz Global granted 573,432 non-qualified stock options to certain executives and employees at a weighted average grant date fair value of $9.33 as determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model; 621,910 restricted stock units ("RSUs") at a weighted average grant date fair value of $19.20 ; 423,052 PSUs at a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.08 and 664,643 performance stock awards ("PSAs") at a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.19 , with vesting terms of three to five years. None of the PSUs associated with the 2017 EICP plan are included in the grant amounts above. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , the Company recognized approximately $3 million and $11 million , respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with the 2016 Omnibus Plan. A summary of the total compensation expense and associated income tax benefits recognized under all plans, including the cost of stock options, RSUs, PSUs and PSAs is as follows: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended (In millions) 2017 2016 2017 2016 Compensation expense $ 4 $ 5 $ 16 $ 16 Income tax benefit (2 ) (2 ) (6 ) (6 ) Total $ 2 $ 3 $ 10 $ 10 As of September 30, 2017 , there was $23 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, RSUs, PSUs and PSAs granted by Hertz Global under all plans. The total unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining 1.6 years , on a weighted average basis, of the requisite service period that began on the grant dates.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates the carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Cash Equivalents and Investments The Company’s cash equivalents primarily consist of money market accounts. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets. Investments in equity and other securities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of available for sale securities.

The Brazil Operations were sold in August 2017 and the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $6 million as further described in Note 4 , " Acquisitions and Divestitures ." Investments in Related Parties Investments in related parties are accounted for under the equity method and are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment charge whenever there is a decline in value that is determined to be other than temporary. In April 2016, the Company paid approximately $45 million for an equity method investment. In March 2017, the Company determined it had an other than temporary loss in value of its investment and recorded an impairment charge of $30 million which is included in other (income) expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . In September 2017, the investee was dissolved which resulted in a return of capital to the Company and a pre-tax gain of $4 million , which is included in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 . The amounts noted in the table above were attributable to the Company's Corporate operations and were therefore not recorded in the Company's operating segments. Intangible Assets In June 2017, the Company recorded impairment charges for the Dollar Thrifty tradename as further described in Note 6 , " Goodwill and Intangible Assets ".

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments	Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Commitments Legal Proceedings Public Liability and Property Damage The Company is currently a defendant in numerous actions and has received numerous claims on which actions have not yet been commenced for public liability and property damage arising from the operation of motor vehicles rented from the Company. The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international vehicles, as stated on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, represents an estimate for both reported accident claims not yet paid and claims incurred but not yet reported. The related liabilities are recorded on a non-discounted basis. Reserve requirements are based on rental volume and actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company's liability recorded for public liability and property damage matters was $448 million and $407 million , respectively. The Company believes that its analysis is based on the most relevant information available, combined with reasonable assumptions, and that the Company may prudently rely on this information to determine the estimated liability. The liability is subject to significant uncertainties. The adequacy of the liability reserve is regularly monitored based on evolving accident claim history and insurance related state legislation changes. If the Company's estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results. Other Matters From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings and governmental investigations. The Company has summarized below the most significant legal proceedings to which the Company was and/or is a party to during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 or the period after September 30, 2017 , but before the filing of this Report on Form 10‑Q. Concession Fee Recoveries - In October 2006, Janet Sobel, Daniel Dugan, PhD. and Lydia Lee, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated v. The Hertz Corporation and Enterprise Rent-A-Car Company (“Enterprise”) was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada (Enterprise became a defendant in a separate action which they have now settled.) The Sobel case is a consumer class action on behalf of all persons who rented vehicles from Hertz at airports in Nevada and were separately charged airport concession recovery fees by Hertz as part of their rental charges during the class period. In October 2014, the court entered final judgment against the Company and directed Hertz to pay the class approximately $42 million in restitution and $11 million in prejudgment interest, and to pay attorney's fees of $3 million with an additional $3 million to be paid to class counsel from the restitution fund. In November 2014, Hertz timely filed an appeal of that final judgment with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the plaintiffs cross appealed the court's judgment seeking to challenge the lower court's ruling that Hertz did not deceive or mislead the class members. Following briefing and oral argument, on January 5, 2017, the Ninth Circuit issued an opinion reversing the District Court’s holdings on liability and remedy and vacating the judgment. The Ninth Circuit also rejected plaintiffs’ cross-appeal, finding that Hertz’s actions were not deceptive or misleading. On January 19, 2017, plaintiffs asked the entire Ninth Circuit, sitting en banc, to rehear the appeal. That petition was rejected on February 15, 2017. Plaintiffs elected not to file a petition seeking a non-mandatory further review by the United States Supreme Court, so this matter is now concluded. In re Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation - In November 2013, a purported shareholder class action, Pedro Ramirez, Jr. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., was commenced in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey naming Old Hertz Holdings and certain of its officers as defendants and alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The complaint alleged that Old Hertz Holdings made material misrepresentations and/or omissions of material fact in its public disclosures during the period from February 25, 2013 through November 4, 2013, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint sought an unspecified amount of monetary damages on behalf of the purported class and an award of costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees. In June 2014, Old Hertz Holdings responded to the amended complaint by filing a motion to dismiss. After a hearing in October 2014, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss the complaint. The dismissal was without prejudice and plaintiff was granted leave to file a second amended complaint within 30 days of the order. In November 2014, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint which shortened the putative class period such that it was not alleged to have commenced until May 18, 2013 and made allegations that were not substantively very different than the allegations in the prior complaint. In early 2015, this case was assigned to a new federal judge in the District of New Jersey, and Old Hertz Holdings responded to the second amended complaint by filing another motion to dismiss. On July 22, 2015, the court granted Old Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss without prejudice and ordered that plaintiff could file a third amended complaint on or before August 22, 2015. On August 21, 2015, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint. The third amended complaint included additional allegations, named additional current and former officers as defendants and expanded the putative class period such that it was alleged to span from February 14, 2013 to July 16, 2015. On November 4, 2015, Old Hertz Holdings filed its motion to dismiss. Thereafter, a motion was made by plaintiff to add a new plaintiff, because of challenges to the standing of the first plaintiff. The court granted plaintiffs leave to file a fourth amended complaint to add the new plaintiff, and the new complaint was filed on March 1, 2016. Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the fourth amended complaint in its entirety with prejudice on March 24, 2016, and plaintiff filed its opposition to same on May 6, 2016. On June 13, 2016, Old Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants filed their reply briefs in support of their motions to dismiss. The matter is now fully briefed. On April 28, 2017, the court issued an order wherein Old Hertz Holdings' and the individual defendants' motions to dismiss were granted and the plaintiffs’ fourth amended complaint to add a new plaintiff was dismissed with prejudice (the “Order”). On May 30, 2017, the plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal with the U. S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. The Third Circuit has now released a partial briefing schedule for this appeal with the plaintiffs' Opening Brief expected to be filed on or before November 29, 2017. Ryanair - In July 2015, Ryanair Ltd. ("Ryanair") filed a complaint against Hertz Europe Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, in the High Court of Justice, Queen’s Bench Division, Commercial Court, Royal Courts of Justice of the United Kingdom alleging breach of contract in connection with Hertz Europe Limited’s termination of its vehicle hire agreement with Ryanair following a contractual dispute with respect to Ryanair’s agreement to begin using third party ticket distributors. The complaint seeks damages, interest and costs, together with attorney fees. The Company believes that it has valid and meritorious defenses and, to that end, it has filed a Defense and Counterclaim. In addition, there have been detailed and intensive exchanges of documents by both parties and taking and exchanging of Witness Statements. The Court has decided to postpone the next hearing date to March/April 2018. In the meantime, the parties participated in a mediation in late July 2017 which resulted in no resolution being reached by the parties. The Company has established a reserve for the matter which is not material. The Company intends to assert that it has meritorious defenses in the foregoing matters and the Company intends to defend itself vigorously. Governmental Investigations - In June 2014, the Company was advised by the staff of the New York Regional Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that it is investigating the events disclosed in certain of the Company’s filings with the SEC. In addition, in December 2014 a state securities regulator requested information - an investigation that has since closed - and starting in June 2016 the Company has had communications with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey regarding the same or similar events. The investigations and communications generally involve the restatements included in the Old Hertz Holdings Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC on July 16, 2015 (the “Old Hertz Holdings 2014 10-K”) and related accounting for prior periods. The Company has and intends to continue to cooperate with all requests related to the foregoing. Due to the stage at which the proceedings are, Hertz is currently unable to predict the likely outcome of the proceedings or estimate the range of reasonably possible losses, which may be material. Among other matters, the restatements included in the Old Hertz Holdings 2014 Form 10-K addressed a variety of accounting matters involving the Company’s Brazil vehicle rental operations. Additionally, the Company has identified certain activities in Brazil that raise issues under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and may raise issues under other federal and local laws, which the Company has self-reported to appropriate government entities and the processes with these government entities continue. The Company is continuing to investigate these issues. The Company has established a reserve relating to the activities in Brazil which is not material. However, it is possible that an adverse outcome with respect to the activities in Brazil and the other issues discussed herein could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period. French Road Tax - The French Tax Authority has challenged the historic practice of several vehicle rental companies, including Hertz France, of registering vehicles in jurisdictions where it is established and where the road tax payable with respect to those vehicles is lower than the road tax payable in the jurisdictions where the vehicles will primarily be used. In respect of a period in 2005, the Company has unsuccessfully appealed the French Tax assessment to the highest Administrative court in France. In respect of a period from 2003 to 2005, following an adverse judgment, the Company appealed the French Tax Authority’s assessment to the Civil Court of Appeal. On March 2, 2017, the Company received an adverse judgment in the road tax appeal from the Civil Court of Appeal in the 2003 to 2005 years. In the third quarter of 2015, following an adverse decision against another industry participant involved in a similar action, the Company recorded charges with respect to this matter of approximately $23 million . In January 2016, the Company made a payment of approximately $9 million . In addition to the matters described above, the Company maintains an internal compliance program through which it from time to time identifies other potential violations of laws and regulations applicable to the Company. When the Company identifies such matters, the Company conducts an internal investigation and otherwise cooperates with governmental authorities, as appropriate. The Company has established reserves for matters where the Company believes that losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Other than the aggregate reserve established for claims for public liability and property damage, none of those reserves are material. For matters, including certain of those described above, where the Company has not established a reserve, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time, or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. These matters are subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of the individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those discussed above, could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the accompanying consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period. Indemnification Obligations In the ordinary course of business, the Company has executed contracts involving indemnification obligations customary in the relevant industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction such as the sale of a business. These indemnification obligations might include claims relating to the following: environmental matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; customer, supplier and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters. Specifically, the Company has indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which the Company may be held responsible could be substantial. In addition, Hertz entered into customary indemnification agreements with Hertz Holdings and certain of the Company's stockholders and their affiliates pursuant to which Hertz Holdings and Hertz will indemnify those entities and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, partners, members, employees, agents, representatives and controlling persons, against certain liabilities arising out of performance of a consulting agreement with Hertz Holdings and each of such entities and certain other claims and liabilities, including liabilities arising out of financing arrangements or securities offerings. The Company has entered into customary indemnification agreements with each of its directors and certain of its officers. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third party claim. In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company executed an agreement with Herc Holdings that contains mutual indemnification clauses and a customary indemnification provision with respect to liability arising out of or resulting from assumed legal matters. The Company regularly evaluates the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and have accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable.

Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information - Hertz	Guarantor and Non-Guarantor Condensed Consolidating Financial Information - Hertz The following condensed consolidating financial information presents the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and the Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 of (a) The Hertz Corporation, ("Parent”); (b) the Parent's subsidiaries that guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (c) the Parent's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes issued by the Parent ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"); (d) elimination entries necessary to consolidate the Parent with the Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries ("Eliminations"); and of (e) Hertz on a consolidated basis. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for using the equity method for purposes of the consolidating presentation. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions. The Guarantor Subsidiaries are 100% owned by the Parent and all guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. Additionally, substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are pledged under the Senior Facilities and Senior Second Priority Secured Notes, and consequently will not be available to satisfy the claims of Hertz's general creditors. In lieu of providing separate unaudited financial statements for the Guarantor Subsidiaries, Hertz has included the accompanying condensed consolidating financial statements based on Rule 3-10 of the SEC's Regulation S-X. Management of Hertz does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to Hertz's investors; therefore, separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented. During the preparation of the condensed consolidating financial information of The Hertz Corporation and Subsidiaries as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017, it was determined that prepaid expenses and other assets, deferred income taxes, net, due from affiliates and due to affiliates, and the related eliminations at December 31, 2016 as filed in the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K were improperly calculated, resulting in a $915 million overstatement of prepaid expenses and other assets and due to affiliates of the Parent and an overstatement of due from affiliates and deferred income taxes, net of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. The errors, which the Company has determined are not material to this disclosure, had no impact on the net assets of the Parent or the Guarantor Subsidiaries and are eliminated upon consolidation, and therefore have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has revised the Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets for the Parent, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Eliminations as of December 31, 2016 to correct for these errors.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events Non-vehicle debt Senior Facilities In October 2017, Hertz repaid $120 million of borrowings outstanding under the Senior RCF, and after giving effect to such repayment, the Senior RCF was undrawn. On November 2, 2017, Hertz entered into an agreement amending certain terms of the credit agreement governing its Senior Facilities. The amendment, among other things, (i) amends a covenant to restrict the incurrence of certain non-vehicle indebtedness and to permit the incurrence of additional junior indebtedness to the extent the amount outstanding under the Senior Facilities is less than $2.4 billion , (ii) provides that Hertz shall not make certain dividends and certain restricted payments unless a leverage ratio test is satisfied, (iii) amends the amortization of the Senior Term Loan such that it will amortize, payable in equal quarterly installments, in annual amounts equal to 2% per annum of the original principal amount of the term loans until the maturity date, and (v) amends certain definitions relating to the foregoing. The amendment also provides that Hertz may enter into the Letter of Credit Facility, which Hertz executed simultaneously with the amendment. In addition, concurrently with the execution of the amendment described above, Hertz exercised its right to permanently reduce the amount of available commitments under the Senior RCF by $383 million , such that after giving effect to such reduction the Senior RCF consists of a $1.167 billion senior secured revolving credit facility.

The redemption price for the 2019 Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes, plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. Hertz has deposited funds with the trustee of the 2019 Notes to effect such redemption. The redemption date is December 3, 2017. Letter of Credit Facility On November 2, 2017, Hertz entered into a letter of credit agreement with respect to a new standalone letter of credit facility.

The Letter of Credit Facility consists of $400 million of commitments from the issuing banks party thereto. Availability under the Letter of Credit Facility will be limited to an amount equal to the amount of commitments terminated under the Senior RCF. The Letter of Credit Facility will mature on June 30, 2021. As of November 2, 2017, there was no availability under the Letter of Credit Facility and no letters of credit were issued thereunder on such date. Senior Second Priority Secured Notes Hertz has utilized all $833 million of the remaining net proceeds from the June 2017 issuance of the Senior Second Priority Secured Notes that it was holding as restricted cash to reduce commitments under the Senior RCF and to effect the redemption of the 2019 Notes as described above. Vehicle debt HVF II U.S. Vehicle Variable Funding Notes On November 2, 2017, HVF II entered into various amendment agreements pursuant to which certain terms of the HVF II Series 2013-A Notes and the HVF II Series 2013-B Notes were amended.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz Global include the accounts of Hertz Global and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Hertz include the accounts of Hertz and its wholly owned and majority owned U.S. and international subsidiaries. In the event that the Company is a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the variable interest entity are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including income taxes, forfeitures, minimum statutory withholding requirements, and classifications within the statement of cash flows. Most significantly, the new guidance eliminates the need to track tax “windfalls” in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recorded within income tax expense. The Company adopted this guidance in accordance with the effective date on January 1, 2017. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated balance sheet was a modified retrospective basis. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset with an offsetting entry to the opening accumulated deficit to recognize net operating loss carryforwards, net of a valuation allowance, attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation that had not been previously recognized. Additionally, the Company has elected to continue to estimate forfeitures expected to occur. The impact to the condensed consolidated opening balance sheet as of January 1, 2017 of adopting this guidance was as follows (in millions): Hertz Global Deferred income taxes, net Total liabilities Accumulated deficit Total equity Total liabilities and equity As of December 31, 2016 $ 2,149 $ 18,080 $ (882 ) $ 1,075 $ 19,155 Record deferred tax asset (49 ) (49 ) 49 49 — As of January 1, 2017 $ 2,100 $ 18,031 $ (833 ) $ 1,124 $ 19,155 Hertz Deferred income taxes, net Total liabilities Accumulated deficit Total equity Total liabilities and equity As of December 31, 2016 $ 2,149 $ 18,080 $ (1,867 ) $ 1,075 $ 19,155 Record deferred tax asset (49 ) (49 ) 49 49 — As of January 1, 2017 $ 2,100 $ 18,031 $ (1,818 ) $ 1,124 $ 19,155 The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statement of operations and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to excess tax benefits or deficiencies is on a prospective basis. The method of adoption with respect to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows pertaining to employee taxes paid is on a retrospective basis and adoption of the guidance did not impact the Company's cash flows. Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance that addresses the treatment of certain transactions in statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified. These items include, but are not limited to, debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, proceeds from the settlement of life insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, and distributions received from equity method investees. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a retrospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Accounting for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test, which requires the determination of the implied fair value of goodwill to measure an impairment. Rather, a goodwill impairment charge will be calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, on January 1, 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Scope of Modification Accounting for Share-Based Payment Awards In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance that amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The guidance describes the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards where modification accounting is required to be applied. Modification accounting is not required if the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted this guidance early, as permitted, on a prospective basis, in the second quarter of 2017. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Not Yet Adopted Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance applies to all contracts with customers except for leases, insurance contracts, financial instruments, certain nonmonetary exchanges and certain guarantees. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue from customers for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. Also, additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The FASB has issued several amendments and updates to the new revenue standard (collectively, “Topic 606”), including guidance related to when an entity should recognize revenue gross as a principal or net as an agent and how an entity should identify performance obligations. As amended, Topic 606 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and allows for full retrospective adoption applied to all periods presented or a modified retrospective adoption with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings recognized at the date of initial application. The Company intends to adopt Topic 606 when effective on January 1, 2018 using a modified retrospective approach applied to all contracts. Prior periods will not be retrospectively adjusted. The Company has reached conclusions on several key accounting assessments related to its revenue recognition, however, it is still finalizing its assessment and quantifying the impacts that adoption of Topic 606 will have on the accounting for its loyalty programs, such as Hertz Gold Plus Rewards, as further described below. The Company is still in the process of determining the level of disaggregated revenue information that it will include in its disclosures and continues to evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting to ensure that controls are in place to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption of Topic 606. Vehicle Rental Operations The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities, wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset, will be accounted for under Topic 606, effective January 1, 2018, until the adoption of the new lease guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP, as described in more detail in the "Leases" disclosure below. Recognition of revenue from other forms of rental related activities that represent a service will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606. Recognition of revenue earned through the licensing of the Hertz, Dollar and Thrifty brands under franchise agreements (“franchise fees”) is expected to remain consistent with current revenue recognition guidance except for initial and renewal franchise fees. Currently, initial franchise fees are recorded as deferred income when received and are recognized as revenue when all material upfront services and conditions related to the franchise fee have been substantially performed and renewal franchise fees are recognized as revenue when the license agreements are effective and collectability is reasonably assured. Upon adoption, revenue from initial and renewal franchise fees that relate to a future contract term, for franchises in effect as of January 1, 2018, will be deferred and recognized over the remaining contract term. However, this amount will not be material. The Company believes that the most significant impact relates to its accounting for reward points earned by customers under its loyalty programs. Upon adoption of Topic 606, each transaction which generates reward points will result in the deferral of revenue equivalent to the retail value of the redemption of the loyalty reward points. The associated revenue will be recognized at the time the customer redeems the loyalty reward points. Under the current guidance, there is no revenue deferral and the Company records an expense associated with the incremental cost of providing the future rental at the time when the reward points are earned. The Company is in the process of quantifying the impact of adoption of Topic 606. Fleet Leasing and Management Operations The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset will be accounted for under the existing lease guidance until the adoption of the new lease guidance, as described in more detail in the "Leases" disclosure below. Administration fees and service revenue attributable to the Company's Donlen operations will not be materially impacted by adoption of Topic 606. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance (Topic "842") establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record on the balance sheet a ROU asset and corresponding lease liability based on the present value of future lease payments for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Topic 842 also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements. Additionally, enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases are required which provide financial statement users the ability to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Topic 842 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods with early adoption permitted. The Company intends to adopt this guidance, in accordance with the effective date, on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for both lessees and lessors for existing leases at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is still in the process of evaluating whether to avail itself of allowable practicable expedients during transition. Lessee Adoption of Topic 842 will result in a material increase in the Company's lease-related assets and liabilities on its balance sheet, primarily for leases of rental locations and other assets. Additionally, adoption of this guidance will impact the statement of cash flows with respect to the presentation of the Company's operating activities, but is not expected to impact its presentation of investing or financing activities. Adoption of Topic 842 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations. The Company has reached conclusions on key accounting assessments related to its leases and is performing an analysis of its lease portfolio to ensure proper application of the new guidance including implementation of internal controls over financial reporting. Lessor The Company has concluded that revenue earned by operations for the rental and leasing of vehicles and from other forms of rental related activities wherein an identified asset is transferred to the customer and the customer has the ability to control that asset is within the scope of this guidance and that additional disclosures regarding lease revenue are required upon adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the breakdown of its vehicle rental revenues into lease and non-lease components. There is no impact to the nature, timing or recognition of rental lease revenue upon adoption of this guidance. Restricted Cash In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies existing guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. The guidance requires entities to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in its cash and cash equivalents balances in the statement of cash flows. Under current guidance, the Company presents these transfers within the cash flows from investing and financing sections in its consolidated statements of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a retrospective transition method. Adoption of this guidance will impact the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Company's statement of cash flows. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the amount of cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows will increase by $1.0 billion . Additionally, transfers between restricted and unrestricted cash will no longer be a component of the Company's investing or financing activities. Clarifying the Definition of a Business In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance requires an evaluation of whether substantially all of the fair value of assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction does not qualify as a business. The guidance also requires an acquired business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods using a prospective transition method. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Clarifying the Scope of Nonfinancial Asset Derecognition and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets In February 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the scope of the established guidance on nonfinancial asset derecognition as well as the accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The new guidance may be adopted on either a full or modified retrospective basis. Based on current operations, adoption of this guidance is not expected to impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance that requires entities to (1) disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present the current-service-cost component with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement and (2) present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The guidance also requires entities to disclose the income statement lines that contain the other components if they are not presented on described separate lines. In addition, only the service-cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization, which is a change from current practice, under which entities capitalize the aggregate net benefit cost when applicable. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance affecting the presentation of the components of net periodic benefit cost in the income statement requires use of the retrospective method of adoption and the guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic benefit cost to the service cost component requires use of the prospective method of adoption. Adoption of this guidance will result in a reclassification of certain amounts from direct vehicle and operating expense and selling, general and administrative expense to other (income) expense, net which does not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company does not expect the reclassified amounts to be material.

The expected final maturity date is the date by which Hertz and investors in the relevant indebtedness expect the relevant indebtedness to be repaid. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. (3) Approximately $67 million of the aggregate maximum borrowing capacity under the U.S. Vehicle RCF is scheduled to expire in January 2018 . (4) References to the "European Vehicle Notes" include the series of Hertz Holdings Netherlands B.V.'s, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Hertz organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“HHN BV”), unsecured senior notes (converted from Euros to U.S. dollars at a rate of 1.17 to 1 and 1.04 to 1 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively) set forth on the table below. Outstanding principal amounts for each such series of the European Vehicle Notes is also specified below: (In millions) Outstanding Principal European Vehicles Notes September 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 4.375% Senior Notes due January 2019 (€425 million aggregate principal amount) $ 499 $ 443 4.125% Senior Notes due October 2021 (€225 million aggregate principal amount) 264 234 $ 763 $ 677 (5) In the case of the Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP ("HFLF") Medium Term Notes, such notes are repayable from cash flows derived from third-party leases comprising the underlying HFLF collateral pool. The initial maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the end of the revolving period for such series, at which time the related notes begin to amortize monthly by an amount equal to the lease collections payable to that series. To the extent the revolving period already has ended, the initial maturity date reflected is October 2017. The second maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the date by which Hertz and the investors in the related series expect such series of notes to be repaid in full, which is based upon various assumptions made at the time of pricing of such notes, including the contractual amortization of the underlying leases as well as the assumed rate of prepayments of such leases. Such maturity reference is to the “expected final maturity date” as opposed to the subsequent “legal final maturity date”. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. Although the underlying lease cash flows that support the repayment of the HFLF Medium Term Notes may vary, the cash flows generally are expected to approximate a straight line amortization of the related notes from the initial maturity date through the expected final maturity date. The fair value of debt is estimated based on quoted market rates as well as borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2 inputs).

Outstanding principal amounts for each such series of the Senior Notes is also specified below: (In millions) Outstanding Principal Senior Notes September 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 4.25% Senior Notes due April 2018 $ — $ 250 6.75% Senior Notes due April 2019 450 450 5.875% Senior Notes due October 2020 700 700 7.375% Senior Notes due January 2021 500 500 6.25% Senior Notes due October 2022 500 500 5.50% Senior Notes due October 2024 800 800 $ 2,950 $ 3,200 (2) Maturity reference is to the earlier "expected final maturity date" as opposed to the subsequent "legal maturity date." The expected final maturity date is the date by which Hertz and investors in the relevant indebtedness expect the relevant indebtedness to be repaid. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. (3) Approximately $67 million of the aggregate maximum borrowing capacity under the U.S. Vehicle RCF is scheduled to expire in January 2018 . (4) References to the "European Vehicle Notes" include the series of Hertz Holdings Netherlands B.V.'s, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Hertz organized under the laws of The Netherlands (“HHN BV”), unsecured senior notes (converted from Euros to U.S. dollars at a rate of 1.17 to 1 and 1.04 to 1 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively) set forth on the table below. Outstanding principal amounts for each such series of the European Vehicle Notes is also specified below: (In millions) Outstanding Principal European Vehicles Notes September 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 4.375% Senior Notes due January 2019 (€425 million aggregate principal amount) $ 499 $ 443 4.125% Senior Notes due October 2021 (€225 million aggregate principal amount) 264 234 $ 763 $ 677 (5) In the case of the Hertz Fleet Lease Funding LP ("HFLF") Medium Term Notes, such notes are repayable from cash flows derived from third-party leases comprising the underlying HFLF collateral pool. The initial maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the end of the revolving period for such series, at which time the related notes begin to amortize monthly by an amount equal to the lease collections payable to that series. To the extent the revolving period already has ended, the initial maturity date reflected is October 2017. The second maturity date referenced for each series of HFLF Medium Term Notes represents the date by which Hertz and the investors in the related series expect such series of notes to be repaid in full, which is based upon various assumptions made at the time of pricing of such notes, including the contractual amortization of the underlying leases as well as the assumed rate of prepayments of such leases. Such maturity reference is to the “expected final maturity date” as opposed to the subsequent “legal final maturity date”. The legal final maturity date is the date on which the relevant indebtedness is legally due and payable. Although the underlying lease cash flows that support the repayment of the HFLF Medium Term Notes may vary, the cash flows generally are expected to approximate a straight line amortization of the related notes from the initial maturity date through the expected final maturity date. The fair value of debt is estimated based on quoted market rates as well as borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2 inputs).
