Just wanted to let people know about tomorrow's Nikola media event. We are going to see a full production model of a fully working Badger truck as well as other exciting news.
Nikola will make two essential announcements on June 29. On that day, the company will reveal when it's hosting Nikola World 2020, an event in which the company promised to show a revolutionary new battery with 500 Wh/kg. Trevor Milton now also stated on Twitter that the Nikola Badger would appear live on the same day.
Reservations for the electric pickup truck will start on June 29. Nikola’s CEO promises it will be staged against combustion-engined competitors and will beat all of them. That is something we would certainly like to watch.
The new battery is something Nikola spoke about back in November 2019. Milton did not mention that in his recent tweets, but our obligation is to remember not only that promise but also the details the company later provided about that battery.
In times when SVolt and CATL already announced million-mile batteries before Tesla, Nikola’s new cell will make things raise the bar even more for any news the Tesla Battery Day may have to give us. We wonder if the Badger will already be sold with it.
Regarding the electric pickup truck, it seems Milton’s tweets about it helped the company’s shares soar almost 60 percent. If that is confirmed, we may see Nikola follow the same market behavior Tesla presents when Elon Musk says anything that may impact the company in that social media.
