Nikola Corp.’s machinery and inventory are now for sale. The U.S.-based transportation company’s assets includes hydrogen-powered Class 8 trucks, machinery and equipment for fuel cell electric vehicles and the development of hydrogen fueling infrastructure to support zero-emissions trucking, and other finished goods and inventory. Nikola filed for bankruptcy earlier this year.
