Trade Nikola Corporation - NKLA stock price

What is Nikola Corporation?

Nikola Corporation or Nikola Motor Company was established by Trevor Milton in 2015 with headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. The company is named after the first name, since the last name is already taken, of the famous engineer and inventor Nikola Tesla.

The company core business is centred around the design and production of zero-emission transportation and infrastructure solutions. It manufactures zero-emission and battery-electric vehicles, hydrogen-electric vehicles, energy storage systems, hydrogen fueling station infrastructure and electric vehicle drivetrains. Some of the products of Nikola Corporation are Nikola One, Nikola Two, Nikola Tre, Nikola Refuse and Nikola Badger. It is said that while Tesla designs and innovates the electric cars segment, Nikola does the same for the track segment.

The company became a publicly-traded company through a reverse merger. Nikola corporation went public on 4 June 2020 on the NASDAQ and it is traded under the ticker NKLA. The reverse merger enabled Nikola Corp to raise hundreds of millions of dollars in funding by avoiding the hefty costs associated with the IPO process.
