How about doing some research before you make any kind of comparison to a company like Nikola?

Maybe they are interested into appear as a real branded company into the game. Instead of a faked placeholder like in so many cases SCS has done. Apart from trucking brands and If I didn't miss anyone else; it would be the first time we saw something similar into the game. That would be another big milestone regarding the acknowledgement of SCS company as a relevant company .

Using their eCascadia as an example, Freightliner has provided some insights about how electric trucks work and addressed some misconceptions about the technology.

This probably isn't news for anyone who is plugged into the industry but some may find it interesting....good to see the big players get behind this platform as it will take their involvement to line up corporate/government investment in the infrastructure required to support it.
