Nikola Corporation is an American technology company that designs and builds electric vehicles for commercial use.
Nikola's founder Trevor Milton named his company after Nikola Tesla too, but the choice seems less to honor the electricity pioneer and more to piggyback on the name of the already-successful Tesla Motors. Interestingly, Milton's previous ventures ended similarly to some of Nikola Tesla's.
