Nikola Tre Electric Truck Can Be Charged in Less Than 2 Hours and Also Has a Hydrogen Cell Version

Nikola and its partner, the IVECO Group, displayed their new super electric truck for heavy-duty service at the Hannover Motor Show, held in Germany. The vehicle features a massive battery totaling 738 kWh of capacity. It is estimated that the range exceeds 530 kilometers. Using 350 kW chargers, it takes just 1 hour and 30 minutes to charge the batteries up to 80% of their capacity.

The version of the Nikola Tre launched in Germany is the European one, already available for orders. The truck is 71 centimeters shorter than the North American model, meaning there is less space for battery storage. The American version has a slightly more powerful set, with 753 kWh. Nikola’s launch makes it a pioneer in the industry: although other manufacturers, such as Mercedes, have announced electric trucks, these will only be available for sale starting in 2024.

Nikola Tre Electric Truck Also Has a Hydrogen Cell Equipped Version

Besides the fully electric version of the Nikola Tre, visitors were also able to see a version equipped with a hydrogen cell. This model, however, is undergoing advanced testing and is expected to be available for purchase by 2024. Nikola stated that a refill of 70 kg of hydrogen, which takes about 20 minutes, allows a range of approximately 800 kilometers.

The hydrogen variant has even higher levels of technology and complexity. As the catalytic conversion systems for energy generation have very specific requirements for aerodynamics and cooling, the design is fundamentally different from the 100% electric version. However, the power and performance are the same. Only the range is greater, due to the difference in fuels.

Learn More About the Manufacturer Behind the Nikola Tre

Nikola Corporation is a producer of energy solutions, 100% electric commercial vehicles, as well as electric fuel cell cars, based in the United States. The manufacturer showcased many different vehicle designs from 2016 to 2020, being the first to market a natural gas-powered electric truck. Nikola emerged with a promise to be the new Tesla, with Trevor Milton, its founder, being the new Elon Musk.

The company has been involved in controversies, with allegations of fraud, even facing a lawsuit in the United States for this reason.
