  • Kyle and the team met up with Nikola at the Los Angeles motor show and went on a full tour of the Hyrdogen Tre! The team has already ridden in their battery-electric truck and now it's time to experience the Hydrogen which has some advantages and disadvantages to BEV, which we explain in this video.

    Thanks Kyle for this wonderful review of Nikola Motors. Your channel is the most unbiased and I and my coworkers always enjoy your reviews of cars and companies. I am loving this small company Nikola Motors. It looks like they are almost the only game in town as far as Hydrogen powered truck fleet is concerned. Others do not even have their charging infrastructure yet, but Nikola already has their HYLA charging infrastructure, which is wonderful. What if 99.99% of investors are overlooking Nikola Motors Corp? That makes me really put down my money and bought my first 500 shares at 65 to 73 cents per share. I may continue to accumulate as the company continue to progress towards a sustainable growth, profitability and worldwide acceptance with new partnerships, etc. Loving it. I always buy company stocks when the companies are still small, disruptive in nature, and not followed by institutional investors yet.

    Great video, i wonder why they didn't decide to have a supercapcitor module for high regen or for heavy power demands to even out the demand on the battery. It might make the battery last a bit longer, and would allow for more regen energy to be captured and used. But i do realise that it would add weight and complexity and remove payload capacity.
    And i remeber the London Routemaster replacement bus that James May drove in his Top Gear days, had a Lithium Titatate Battery as part of its Hybrid system, its a heavier with less capacity compared to NCM/NCA and LFP but is overall the safest lithium battery tech i've seen. With the advantage of tens of thousands of cycle life and can be charged with massive C rates and not really care. So saying that. I wonder if theyll go to LTO, as i would worry about NCM/NCA being anywhere near hydrogen.

    Looks like a well made and competent truck for sure, but I'm not sold on hydrogen yet. Even if just for large class trucks. I think what the guys at Edison motors have with their diesel hybrid is the best interim solution until better technologies and infrastructure become available. Yeah, they still burn diesel, but quite a bit less and can burn as clean as possible all the time since the generator continuously runs at peak efficiency.
    BEV and/or hydrogen hybrid might work for those strictly metro routes.

    YEARS AGO, The USDOT restricted simi truck/trailer combos to a max of 65ft bumper to bumper so the
    industry went COE (cab over engine) to save a few feet for the trailer. ALSO back then trailers were
    limited to 40ft MAX. So you only had 25ft for tractor. TODAY, Europe has a similar restriction thats why
    Europe/UK all drive COE. Today, trailers can go to 53ft. WALMART Canada has a special use permit &
    they are experimenting with 65ft trailers in Ca BUT those trailers cannot come across the US border.
    Nokola builds only COE because they intent to export to Europe/UK.

    With all the hydrogen vehicles I have to wonder why they are not some kind of „plugin hybrid“. They already have a battery ‒ and the battery here is quite big already. It shouldn't be that much additional cost to have the charging connector (DC only, to avoid having to add the onboard charger) and it could add a bit of range (cheaper at that) during that 20 minut fueling stop / 30 minute shift switch pause.

      @@buddy1155 Well, diesel doesn't explode so "the same amount of explosive energy" doesn't mean a whole lot. Even inside the engine, the flame front is subsonic so it's a deflagration rather than a detonation (explosion). Any more stupid replies or is that enough to deflate your snarky bullshit?
      The primary safety issue is you have a carbon fiber tank at 10,000 PSIG (700 bar). If the tank fails, it splits open and goes pop. If the failure happens to be on the front of the tank, the cab will be obliterated along with anyone in it. You can go ahead and search for videos about CNG tank ruptures for a rough idea of what this looks like... but remember that CNG operates at "only" 200-250 bar.
      All that said, though, it's fairly safe. CNG trucks are more common than you might realize and in the US where we have actual enforcement of laws regarding inspections and maintenance, incidents are low. The tanks do have a lifespan and should be replaced depending on how old they are and how many cycles they've been through. For CNG tanks it's typically 15-20 years but again those operate at 250 bar max so 700 bar tanks might have a shorter life. Of course, if the tank gets any damage more than a minor scratch, it should get replaced...

      Nikola has the best electric truck currently on the market (although Tesla's Semi will be much better it finally arrives), so I think that Nikola will succeed as a company. The hydrogen truck, however, will never go anywhere, because it costs 5 to 10 times more per mile than Tesla's Semi. (See my calculations in another comment).

    Oxygen entering the fuel cell through the air intake system combines with hydrogen to form water, so 70 kg of hydrogen can produce 630 kg of water. What type of exhaust system does this truck have with that much water? I think the water needs to be drained constantly so as not to reduce the payload. What about road safety? Otherwise, the water will have to evaporate.

    I thought these were powered by potential energy? ;) I jest, glad to see more progress in this space. Hydrogen seems like a good fit for long range big rigging.

    So fundamentally the Hydrogen is being burned in an internal combustion engine (ICE) with over 700 plus moving parts...plus the production / storage & distribution of hydrogen costs energy.
    But at least the tailpipe emissions are H2O.

    These trucks look nice but have no power. I met someone that works for Walmart and they don't have enough power to make it up the hill fully loaded. So they only use them locally.
