Hetzner VPS hosts have 10 GBit links.

Huh you're right, they say their VPSes have 10gig but their dedicated boxes only have 1gig, even the really expensive ones. That seems backwards.
Their VPS hosts have a 10GBit uplink, but they offer no bandwidth guarantees per VPS and state you can expect 300-500MBit/s[1]. Their dedicated servers have a 1GBit uplink with guaranteed 1Gbit/s bandwidth.

The Hetzner Cloud ARM instances I believe are on 2.5Gb or 1Gb links. I've never been able to get > 1Gbit on the ARM instances, but easy getting it on x86_64.
It looks like you have to manually add a 10G uplink to dedicated boxes: https://docs.hetzner.com/robot/dedicated-server/network/10g-...
Not quite correct. Their dedicated servers base configuration have 1gig. But when ordering you can add 10gig as an easy option (or add later). The 1 gig is too cheap to meter with free traffic. If you choose 10gig you pay for the traffic. Those who need it might use it :-)
We had a fleet of dedicated hetzner boxes w/10 gbit, it’s just an option you get and pay a little extra for. Generally had good performance as well.
