• AB Inbev pre-order for 800 trucks represents a binding order
Majority of FCEV reservations (65%) reflect large corporate
customers with investment grade credit ratings
Nikola has over 14,000 FCEV truck pre-orders, with
robust demand for newly introduced BEV truck
• Nikola BEV demand: following unveiling of Nikola BEV truck in Fall
2019, company has been engaged with potential strategic customers
Discussion focused on multi-thousand truck pre-orders with
binding contracts with significant deposits 12 months prior to
delivery
Robust BEV demand projected to fill first 2-3 years of production
• FCEV demand equally robust, with reservation book projected to fill
first 2+ years of production
THEMES DRIVING DEMAND
• Commercial vehicle purchasing decision driven by Total Cost of
Ownership (TCO) of vehicle, including cost of truck, fuel, and
maintenance
Nikola's unique FCEV Bundled Lease model ensures TCO cost
parity with diesel as well as TCO consistency and predictability for
fleet operators
• Corporations are increasing focus and efforts to reduce greenhouse
emissions in their value chains
