Rental car company Hertz Global Holdings plans to order up to 175,000 General Motors Co. electric vehicles over the next five years, its latest move toward zero-emission models.

The multi-billion dollar, multi-year deal could be the first of many GM agreements to supply electric vehicles to rental car companies, said Steve Carlisle, the automaker’s North American operations chief, on a conference call.
