Comments on: Nikola’s fuel-cell-electric Tre designed for the long haul https://www.trucknews.com/sustainability/nikoladrive/1003182850/ Trucking news from the editors of Today's Trucking Sat, 16 Mar 2024 16:24:47 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: George Rivera https://www.trucknews.com/sustainability/nikoladrive/1003182850/#comment-476326 Sat, 16 Mar 2024 16:24:47 +0000 https://www.trucknews.com/?p=1003182850#comment-476326 So I’m not sure why you didn’t cover the most important parts of the conversation that is, how much Torque does the unit produce along with mileage per fill up ? Also , has the truck been tested pulling 80k across roads, terrain , etc to measure the power and distance it produces pulling such weight? Those aren’t concerns and I should think any trucking company’s target concerns along with maint costs, in order to gauge this technology against current business metrics? What am I missing in this ??? Thanks , current CDL over the road professional

Ride at 65 mph on highways like 11 in Ohio or 17 in N.Y. 3. Gross weight Payload capability for heavy haul applications on various grades. 4. What everyone is talking about, extreme cold condition performance. 5. Infrastructure and support. Overall, I think this is happening but when on a large scale is anyones guess.
