Nikola Truck Runs on Electricity Generated by a Hydrogen-powered Fuel Cell

Nikola Motors Co. has unveiled its Nikola One prototype Class 8 highway sleeper tractor–a truck that runs on electricity generated by a hydrogen-powered fuel cell.

The company claims the Nikola One’s range is between 800 to 1,200 miles on a single fill up and, with its fuel cell linked to a 320-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack, the truck can crank out 2,000 horsepower and 2,000 ft.-lbs. or torque – enough to handle heavy-haul operations.
