Nikola Corporation and AiLO Logistics, a drayage carrier operating in the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, have announced a major deal for 100 Nikola hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs). The deliveries are slated for 2025.
This announcement is part of AiLO's broader initiative to enhance its sustainable logistics services. By incorporating 100 Nikola hydrogen trucks, AiLO aims to meet the increasing demands of the port industry while maintaining a commitment to environmental responsibility.
"Nikola trucks are on the road today, and the biggest test of our trucks is measured by our customers and their repeat orders," said Ryan Clayton, Global Head of Sales at Nikola Corporation.
AiLO, which recently rebranded by merging with MDB Transportation and other companies, had previously ordered 50 Nikola FCEVs from Tom's Truck Centers. Deliveries from the initial order are already underway and will continue throughout 2024.
