More car news fuel cells from the automotive authority target customers in North America, while gas turbines will be available in markets that lack hydrogen fuel stations.
But there are few hydrogen fuel stations.
There are also here.
Nicola plans to build its own network of 364 gas stations starting in 2018.
These will serve hydrogen from Nikolai's own solar power plant, which will generate fuel through Electrolytic Water.
Logistics company Ryder System will sell and serve a truck and other truck from Nikola.
In addition to the nationwide coverage of Ryder System, Thompson Machinery, an early investor at Caterpillar dealerships and Nikola, will also specialize in providing sales and services to Tennessee and Mississippi.
Before you get too excited, please note that Nikola did not start production until 2020.
The company has not even decided where to produce it.
This decision will be taken in 2017.
While Nikolai was waiting for the plant, the already established trucking company, Fitzgerald, will be used to make the company's first trucks.
Although the car is still a long way from production, Nikolai has already previewed the second truck called the two.
This is a smaller, more affordable option designed to get into production shortly after this option.
The final price tag has not yet been determined, but Nikola says leasing the label will cost $5,000 to $7,000 a month, depending on the truck's availability.
This month's price also includes the cost of hydrogen fuel expected to be supplied (up to 1 million miles ).
The company says it already has more than 7,000 pre-orders.
Note that Nikola is already selling electric cars.
It's a UTV called Zero (utility mission vehicle ).
