’s Tesla and Rivian in targeting drivers who want high-performance work trucks that don’t spew tailpipe exhaust from gasoline and diesel fuel.
While Tesla’s Cybertruck and Rivian’s R1T are to provide both offer more than 300 miles of range from fully charged lithium-ion battery packs, Phoenix-based Nikola is targeting double that range, using a combination of bothand the hydrogen fuel cell system it developed for long-haul semis. The company claims that its blended electric powertrain will let Badger generate more than 906 horsepower and accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 2.9 seconds.
“The program will help drive down the cost of the fuel-cell components on our semi-truck while accelerating the hydrogen station rollout,” said Nikola President Mark Russell. “Giving customers the option to order a fuel-cell or battery electric version will ensure we drive the cost down for everyone across our lineup.”The company says public demonstrations of the pickup are planned for around September at its annual Nikola World conference in Phoenix.
Tesla’s brand power gives it a leg up over competitors in the nascent electric pickup space, though its far from clear how well its
william_sw Badger.. 👍🏼
👍
Yet another nonsense story about how Tesla is the competition. I'm beginning the believe that the entire automotive world and reporting media, no matter with years of experience and (should be) knowledge still manage to absolutely not understand what they're reporting/saying.
william_sw I'd say Cybertruck is history, but Tesla's incompetence made that statement already!
Tech Hey! This one's got more than 6 pixels!
Honouring Nikola Tesla.
Damn jealousy
While hydrogen fuel cells are interesting in concept, they seemed like a good idea for the Hindenburg, too. Zeppelins were involved in less crahes than cars and trucks.
Nothing like a little competition to get consumers buying.
But what about the windows?
The electric truck market is heating up. Tesla and Rivian could become the kings of off-road. Big brands like Toyota and Ford should take notice and develop a strategy ASAP.
It looks like SimoneGiertz 's TRUCKLA . LOL
Nikola vs. Tesla Nikola Tesla would be happy
Everything Tesla’s truck should have been.
Looks good. Tesla looks like a stealth fighter prototype.

Could you please DM me with your rates to publish BS pump pieces? I'm thinking of starting a company, its going to change the world, and need some help like what you did with $TSLA today to help keep the stock pumped high. Thanks in advance!
