Bosch Starts Assembling Fuel Cell Modules for Nikola
STUTTGART, Germany—Assemblers at Bosch’s Feuerbach factory have begun producing fuel cell modules for Nikola Corp.’s much-anticipated Class 8 truck, which will finally become available later year. Other local Bosch facilities are supplying components, such as fuel cell stacks, electric air compressors and recirculation blowers.
After several years of delays and setbacks, Nikola’s Tre FCEV truck will be assembled at a state-of-the-art facility in Coolidge, AZ. The heavy-duty vehicle is expected to have a range of up to 500 miles and an estimated fueling time of approximately 20 minutes.
