Nikola leaders spent the week on a Northern California tour. Not only did they meet with customers, dealers, and fleets, but they also spent time with leaders from Governor Newsom’s Office of Business and Economic Development, California Air Resources Board, and the California State Senate to discuss programs and policies that promote battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle development.
There’s so much that can be done in California, and our team was able to explain the need for a fully funded Hybrid and Zero Emission Truck Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) in 2025, other funding programs for vehicles and infrastructure, and streamlined permitting processes for hydrogen refueling stations. We also shared our accomplishments with our zero-emissions trucks on roads today and the modular hydrogen refueling stations to support them. California is an important market for our trucks and we thank everyone for their time and effort to push forward!

DNU, I think the quote I posted was clear, the truck crashed into trees, no injuries were reported, and the crash likely caused the battery fire.
