Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to Rule 473 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Nikola Corporation (“Company”) hereby files a delaying amendment with respect to its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-258103) filed with the Commission on July 22, 2021. This filing is made solely to add language that was inadvertently omitted from such Registration Statement.

No fees are required in connection with this filing. If you have any questions or comments in connection with this delaying amendment, please call Gabriella A. Lombardi of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, counsel to the Registrant, at (650) 233-4670.

Very truly yours,
