These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as amended. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. A ll dollar amounts are in thousands, unless otherwise noted. Prior to the start of production for the Tre BEV trucks late in the first quarter of 2022, pre-production activities, including manufacturing readiness, process validation, prototype builds, freight, inventory write-downs, and operations of the Company's manufacturing facility in Coolidge, Arizona were recorded as research and development activities on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Commensurate with the start of production, manufacturing costs, including labor and overhead, as well as inventory-related expenses related to the Tre BEV trucks, and related facility costs, are recorded in cost of revenues beginning in the second quarter of 2022. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. On October 14, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding common stock of Romeo Power, Inc. (“Romeo”) (the "Romeo Acquisition") for a total purchase price of $78.6 million. See Note 3, Business Combination . On June 30, 2023, pursuant to a general assignment (the “Assignment”), the Company transferred ownership of all of Romeo’s right, title and interest in and to all of its tangible and intangible assets, subject to certain agreed upon exclusions (collectively, the “Assets”) to SG Service Co., LLC, in its sole and limited capacity as Assignee for the Benefit of Creditors of Romeo (“Assignee”), and also designated Assignee to act as the assignee for the benefit of creditors of Romeo, such that, as of June 30, 2023, Assignee succeeded to all of Romeo’s right, title and interest in and to the Assets. The results of operations of Romeo are reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. See Note 10, Deconsolidation of Subsidiary , for additional information. All references made to financial data in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are to the Company's continuing operations, unless otherwise specifically noted. (c) Funding Risks and Going Concern In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (" ASC") 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASC 205-40”) the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. As an early stage growth company, the Company's ability to access capital is critical. Until the Company can generate sufficient revenue to cover its operating expenses, working capital and capital expenditures, the Company will need to raise additional capital. Additional stock financing may not be available on favorable terms, or at all, and would be dilutive to current stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and dilutive financing instruments. The Company has secured and intends to employ various strategies to obtain the required funding for future operations such as continuing to access capital through the equity distribution agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citi"), as sales agent, see Note 8, Capital Structure , the second common stock purchase agreement with Tumim Stone Capital LLC, see Note 8, Capital Structur e, and the securities purchase agreement with investors for the sale of an additional principal amount of unsecured senior convertible notes, see Note 7, Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities . However, the ability to access the equity distribution agreement and second common stock purchase agreement are dependent on common stock trading volumes, the market price of the Company’s common stock and registration of additional shares. The Company's amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 800,000,000 to 1,600,000,000, was approved by the stockholders at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders on August 3, 2023; however, the ability to access the remaining availability of the equity distribution agreement and second common stock purchase agreement cannot be assured, and as a result cannot be included as sources of liquidity for the Company’s ASC 205-40 analysis. If capital is not available to the Company when, and in the amounts needed, the Company would be required to delay, scale back, or abandon some or all of its development programs and operations, which could materially harm the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. The result of the Company’s ASC 205-40 analysis, due to uncertainties discussed above, is that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP and this basis assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $68.7 million and $88.1 million, respectively, in current and non-current restricted cash. Restricted cash represents cash that is restricted as to withdrawal or usage and primarily consists of securitization of the Company's letters of credit, leases, and debt. See Note 7, Debt and Finance Lease Liabilities, for additional details. The reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents to amounts presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows are as follows: As of June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 June 30, 2022 Cash and cash equivalents $ 226,673 $ 225,850 $ 441,765 Restricted cash and cash equivalents – current 600 10,600 — Restricted cash and cash equivalents – non-current 68,082 77,459 87,459 Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents $ 295,355 $ 313,909 $ 529,224 (b) Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows: As of June 30, 2023 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Derivative asset $ — $ — $ 109 $ 109 Liabilities Warrant liability $ — $ — $ 65 $ 65 Derivative liability — — 29,340 29,340 Liability classified awards 2,006 — — 2,006 As of December 31, 2022 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets Derivative asset $ — $ — $ 170 $ 170 Liabilities Warrant liability $ — $ — $ 380 $ 380 5% Senior Convertible Notes — — 50,000 50,000 Put premium derivative asset In June 2022, the Company completed a private placement of $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 8.00% / 11.00% convertible senior paid in kind ("PIK") toggle notes (the “June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes”). In conjunction with the issuance of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes, the Company entered into a premium letter agreement (the "Put Premium") with the purchasers (the "Note Purchasers") of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes which requires the Note Purchasers to pay $9.0 million to the Company if during the period through the date that is thirty months after the closing date of the private placement of June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes, the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock has been at least $20.00 for at least 20 trading days during any consecutive 40 trading day period. The Put Premium was determined to be an embedded derivative asset and met the criteria to be separated from the host contract and carried at fair value. The derivative is measured both initially and in subsequent periods at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized i n other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the derivative asset is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value of the derivative asset was as follows: Three and Six Months Ended Estimated fair value as of June 1, 2022 $ 1,500 Change in fair value (700) Estimated fair value as of June 30, 2022 $ 800 The fair value of the derivative asset was immaterial as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Derivative Liabilities Embedded conversion features derivative liability On April 11, 2023, the Company completed an exchange (the "Exchange") of $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's existing June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes for the issuance of $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00% / 11.00% Series B convertible senior PIK toggle notes (the "April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes"). The April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of April 11, 2023 (the "April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes Indenture"). The April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes Indenture, among other things, limits conversion of the April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes in certain instances until the earlier to occur of (x) an increase in the number of authorized shares in an amount sufficient to, among other things, allow for the issuance of common stock underlying the April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes and (y) October 11, 2023, and provides that the Company shall elect to settle conversions of the April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes in cash until such increase in the number of authorized shares has occurred, and the Company obtains the stockholder approval contemplated by Rule 5635 of the Nasdaq listing rules ("Nasdaq Rule"). The conversion features embedded to the April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes were bifurcated and recognized separately at fair value due to the temporary requirement to settle conversions in cash, in certain instances, until stockholder approval as contemplated by Nasdaq Rule 5635 is obtained to increase the number of authorized shares. Upon the Exchange, the Company recognized $21.2 million for the embedded conversion features as a derivative liability within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability was remeasured as of June 30, 2023, with changes in its fair value recorded in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the change in fair value of the derivative liability was as follows: Three and Six Months Ended Estimated fair value at April 11, 2023 $ 21,180 Change in estimated fair value 8,160 Estimated fair value at June 30, 2023 $ 29,340 The fair value of the conversion features was estimated by applying a with-and-without approach to a binomial lattice model. The following reflects the inputs and assumptions used: As of June 30, 2023 April 11, 2023 Stock price $ 1.38 $ 1.09 Conversion price $ 1.46 $ 1.46 Risk free rate 4.49 % 3.76 % Equity volatility 60 % 70 % Expected dividend yield — % — % Credit spread 17.20 % 16.40 % Put right and price differential derivative liabilities On September 13, 2021, the Company entered into an Amended Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Amended MIPA") with Wabash Valley Resources ("WVR") and the sellers party thereto (each, a "Seller"), pursuant to which the Company was subject to the first price differential and second price differential (together the "Price Differential"). The Price Differential was a freestanding financial instrument and accounted for as a derivative liability. The derivative liability was remeasured at each reporting period with changes in its fair value recorded in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations. The first price differential was settled in the fourth quarter of 2021. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the change in fair value of the derivative liability was as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 June 30, 2022 Estimated fair value - beginning of the period $ 3,752 $ 4,189 Change in estimated fair value 2,836 2,399 Estimated fair value - end of the period $ 6,588 $ 6,588 The fair value as of June 30, 2022, was based on the settlement amount that was subsequently paid on July 1, 2022. Liability classified awards During the second quarter of 2023, the Company reclassified certain share-based payment awards from equity to liabilities that would require cash settlement upon distribution or exercise. The fair value of these awards is determined based on the closing price of the Company's stock as of the end of each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period. The fair value accrued as compensation cost at the end of each period is equal to the percentage of the requisite service that has been rendered at that date. Changes in the fair value of liability classified awards during the three months ended June 30, 2023, were immaterial. (c) Revenue Recognition Truck sales Truck sales consist of revenue recognized on the sales of the Company's BEV trucks. The sale of a truck is generally recognized as a single performance obligation at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer (dealers). Control is deemed transferred when the product is picked up by the carrier and the customer (dealer) can direct the product's use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the product. The Company may offer certain after-market upgrades at the request of the dealers. If a contract contains more than one distinct performance obligation, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. The Company does not offer returns on truck sales. Revenue is recognized based on the transaction price, which is measured as the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the product pursuant to the terms of the contract with its customer. The transaction price may be adjusted, if applicable, for variable consideration, such as customer rebates and financing costs on floor plan arrangements, which requires the Company to make estimates for the portion of these allowances that have yet to be credited to customers. Payments for trucks sold are made in accordance with the Company's customary payment terms. The Company has elected an accounting policy whereby the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because, at contract inception, the Company expects the period between the time when the Company transfers a promised good or service to the customer and the time when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Sales tax collected from customers is not considered revenue and is accrued until remitted to the taxing authorities. Shipping and handling activities occur after the customer has obtained control of the product, thus the Company has elected to account for those expenses as fulfillment costs in cost of revenues, rather than an additional promised service. Services and other Services and other revenues consist of sales of mobile charging trailers ("MCTs") and other charging products. The sale of MCTs and other charging products is recognized as a single performance obligation at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is deemed transferred when the product is delivered to the customer and the customer can direct the product's use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company does not offer sales returns on MCTs and other charging products. Payment for products sold are made in accordance with the Company's customary payment terms and the Company's contracts do not have significant financing components. The Company has elected to exclude sales taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. (d) Warranties Warranty costs are recognized upon transfer of control of trucks to dealers, and are estimated based on factors including the length of the warranty, product costs, supplier warranties, and product failure rates. Warranty reserves are reviewed and adjusted quarterly to ensure that accruals are adequate to meet expected future warranty obligations. Initial warranty data is limited early in the launch of a new product and accordingly, future adjustments to the warranty accrual may be material. The change in warranty liability for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is summarized as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Accrued warranty - beginning of period $ 9,248 $ — $ 7,788 $ — Warranty costs incurred (553) — (584) — Net changes in liability for pre-existing warranties (242) — (544) — Provision for new warranties 2,604 2,203 4,397 2,203 Accrued warranty - end of period $ 11,057 $ 2,203 $ 11,057 $ 2,203 As of June 30, 2023, warranty accrual of $2.0 million was recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $9.0 million in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, warranty accrual of $1.5 million was recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $6.3 million in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. |

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] | |
BUSINESS COMBINATION | BUSINESS COMBINATION Romeo Acquisition On October 14, 2022, the Company completed the Romeo Acquisition. Under the terms of the acquisition, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value 0.0001 per share, of Romeo (“Romeo Common Stock”) in exchange for 0.1186 of a share (the "Romeo Exchange Ratio") of the Company's common stock, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares. Total consideration for the acquisition of Romeo is summarized as follows: Purchase consideration Fair value of Nikola common stock issued to Romeo stockholders (1) $ 67,535 Settlement of pre-existing relationships in the form of loan forgiveness (2) 27,923 Settlement of pre-existing relationships in the form of accounts payable (18,216) Fair value of outstanding stock compensation awards attributable to pre-acquisition services (3) 1,345 Total purchase consideration $ 78,587 (1) Represents the acquisition date fair value of 22.1 million shares of Nikola common stock issued to Romeo stockholders, based on the Romeo Exchange Ratio, at the October 14, 2022 closing price of $3.06 per share. (2) The Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated July 30, 2022 (the "Merger Agreement") with Romeo. Concurrently wi th the execution of the Merger Agreement, Romeo entered into a loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with the Company as the lender. The Loan Agreement provided for a facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $30.0 million (subject to certain incremental increases of up to $20.0 million), which were available for drawing subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement. Interest was payable on borrowings under the facility at the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") plus 8.00%. Upon closing, the loan and related accrued interest were forgiven and considered part of the purchase price. As of acquisition close, Romeo had drawn $12.5 million on the loan and accrued $0.1 million in interest. Additionally, as part of the Loan Agreement entered into with Romeo, the Company agreed to a short-term battery price increase. Through the acquisition close, the Company recorded $15.3 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets related to the incremental pack price increase, which was considered part of the purchase consideration upon close. (3) Represents the portion of the fair value of the replacement awards related to services provided prior to the acquisition. The remaining portion of the fair value is associated with future service and will be recognized as expense over the future service period. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The acquisition resulted in goodwill due to the purchase consideration exceeding the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired by $1.5 million. During the second quarter of 2023, the Company transferred ownership of all of Romeo’s right, title and interest in and to all of its tangible and intangible assets to an Assignee, who is designated Assignee to act as the assignee for the benefit of creditors of Romeo.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories are written down for any excess or obsolescence and when net realizable value, which is based upon estimated selling prices, is in excess of carrying value. Once inventory is written-down, a new, lower cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration of or increase in that newly established cost basis. Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets Prepaid expenses and other current assets consisted of the following at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively: As of June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Contingent stock consideration receivable $ 28,428 $ — Deposits 17,150 3,917 Prepaid expenses 9,248 5,748 Headquarters sale agreement receivable 6,543 5,487 Prepaid insurance premiums 4,496 3,611 Non-trade receivables 3,707 6,064 Prepaid software 2,728 1,015 Deferred implementation costs 710 2,101 Total prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 73,010 $ 27,943 Deferred implementation costs Deferred implementation costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related software.

INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES | INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES Investments in unconsolidated affiliates accounted for under the equity method consisted of the following: As of Ownership as of June 30, 2023 June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH — % $ — $ 4,142 Wabash Valley Resources LLC 20 % 57,289 57,674 Nikola - TA HRS 1, LLC 50 % 1,000 1,000 $ 58,289 $ 62,816 Equity in net loss of affiliates on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Equity in net loss of affiliates: Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH $ (7,146) $ (1,201) $ (15,556) $ (4,039) Wabash Valley Resources LLC (471) (69) (469) (51) Total equity in net loss of affiliates $ (7,617) $ (1,270) $ (16,025) $ (4,090) Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH In April 2020, the Company and Iveco S.P.A. ("Iveco") became parties to a series of agreements which established a joint venture in Europe, Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH. The operations of the joint venture are located in Ulm, Germany, and consist of manufacturing the FCEV and BEV Class 8 trucks for the European market. The agreements provided for a 50/50 ownership of the joint venture and a 50/50 allocation of the joint venture's production volumes and profits between the Company and Iveco. Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH was considered a variable interest entity ("VIE") due to insufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company was not considered the primary beneficiary as it did not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance based on the terms of the agreements. Accordingly, the VIE was accounted for under the equity method. On June 29, 2023 (the "Divestiture Closing"), the Company and Iveco executed the European Joint Venture Transaction Agreement (the "Transaction Agreement") whereby the Company sold its 50% equity interest in Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH to Iveco for $35.0 million. In conjunction with the Transaction Agreement, the Company issued an intellectual property license agreement (the “License Agreement”), which grants Iveco and Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, fully sublicensable, transferable, and fully assignable license ("Licensed Software") to software and controls technology related to the BEV and FCEV. According to the terms of the Transaction Agreement, the Company may also receive 20.6 million shares of its own common stock from Iveco, contingent on successful due diligence ("Software Due Diligence") performed by Iveco and its consultants on the Licensed Software delivered to Iveco on the Divestiture Closing pursuant to the License Agreement. The Software Due Diligence is evaluated based on mutually agreed criteria between Iveco and the Company and will be performed starting on the June 29, 2023, and ending on August 4, 2023. On the Divestiture Closing, the Company recognized a gain equal to the difference between the consideration received and its basis in the Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH investment, consisting of a liability balance of $11.4 million for investment in affiliates, and cumulative currency translation losses of $1.5 million. The delivery of the Licensed Software on the Divestiture Closing was determined to represent a right to use the Licensed Software and the performance obligation was satisfied upon the delivery of the Licensed Software on Divestiture Closing. The Company recognized gains related to the derecognition of its basis in Nikola Iveco Europe GmbH and delivery of the Licensed Software in gain on divestiture of affiliate on the consolidated statements of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a gain of $70.8 million in gain on divestiture of affiliates consisting of the following: Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Cash consideration received $ 35,000 Contingent stock consideration receivable 25,956 Derecognition of investment in affiliate 11,428 Derecognition of cumulative currency translation losses (1,535) Gain on divestiture of affiliate $ 70,849 Contingent stock consideration receivable The contingent stock consideration was accounted for as variable consideration and included in total consideration as of Divestiture Closing, as it is not probable that a significant reversal of such consideration will occur upon resolution of the contingency. The fair value of the contingent consideration was determined based on the closing price of the Company's common stock price as of the Divestiture Closing. As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the contingent stock consideration was $28.4 million, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a change in fair value of $2.5 million in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statements of operations. Wabash Valley Resources LLC On June 22, 2021, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "MIPA") with WVR and the Sellers, pursuant to which, the Company purchased a 20% equity interest in WVR in exchange for $25.0 million in cash and 1,682,367 shares of the Company’s common stock. WVR is developing a clean hydrogen project in West Terre Haute, Indiana, including a hydrogen production facility. The common stock consideration was calculated based on the Company's 30-day average closing stock price, or $14.86 per share, and the Company issued 1,682,367 shares of its common stock. The Company's interest in WVR is accounted for under the equity method and is included in investment in affiliates on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Included in the initial carrying value was a basis difference of $55.5 million due to the difference between the cost of the investment and the Company's proportionate share of WVR's net assets. The basis difference is primarily comprised of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. As of June 30, 2023, the Company's maximum exposure to loss was $57.6 million, which represents the book value of the Company's equity interest and loans to WVR for $0.3 million. Nikola - TA HRS 1, LLC In March 2022, the Company and Travel Centers of America, Inc. ("TA") entered into a series of agreements which established a joint venture, Nikola - TA HRS 1, LLC. The operations expected to be performed by the joint venture consist of the development, operation and maintenance of a hydrogen fueling station. Operations have not commenced as of June 30, 2023. The agreements provide for 50/50 ownership of the joint venture. Both parties are entitled to appoint an equal number of board members to the management committee of the joint venture. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements, the Company contributed $1.0 million to Nikola - TA HRS 1, LLC in 2022. Nikola - TA HRS 1, LLC is considered a VIE due to insufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company is not considered the primary beneficiary as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance based on the terms of the agreements. Accordingly, the VIE is accounted for under the equity method. The Company does not guarantee debt for, or have other financial support obligations to the entity and its maximum exposure to loss in connection with its continuing involvement with the entity is limited to the carrying value of the investment. |

Redemption Except with respect to the June 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes as described in the immediately succeeding paragraph, the Company may not redeem the Toggle Convertible Notes prior to June 1, 2025.

In addition, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date or following issuance by the Company of a notice of redemption, in certain circumstances, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its Toggle Convertible Notes (other than the June 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes) in connection with such a corporate event or who elects to convert any such Toggle Convertible Notes called for redemption during the related redemption period. Additionally, in the event of a fundamental change or a change in control transaction, holders of the Toggle Convertible Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Toggle Convertible Notes at a price equal to 100% of the capitalized principal amount of such Toggle Convertible Notes, in the case of a fundamental change, or 130% of the capitalized principal amount of such Toggle Convertible Notes, in the case of change in control transactions, in each case plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

In conjunction with the issuance of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes, the Company executed the Put Premium which was determined to be an embedded derivative that met the criteria for bifurcation from the host. The total proceeds received were first allocated to the fair value of the bifurcated derivative asset, and the remaining proceeds allocated to the host resulting in an adjustment to the initial purchasers' debt discount. The net proceeds from the sale of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes were $183.2 million, net of initial purchasers' discounts and debt issuance costs. Unamortized debt discount and issuance costs were reported as a direct deduction from the face amount of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes. During the second quarter of 2023, the exchange of $100.0 million of June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes for the issuance of $100.0 million of April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes was determined to represent a substantial change in terms and extinguishment accounting was applied. The Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $20.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. As part of the assessment of the exchange, the Company bifurcated the conversion features on the April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes and recognized a derivative liability of $21.2 million as of the exchange date, resulting in an adjustment to the debt discount. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2023, the execution of the Third Supplemental Indenture to June 2022 Notes and First Supplemental Indenture to April 2023 Notes were deemed modifications to the Toggle Convertible Notes outstanding under the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes Indenture and April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes Indenture, respectively, as the amended terms did not substantially change the terms of the respective notes. The consideration paid to the holders in the form of the issuance of the June 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes was recognized as an issuance cost upon modification and is amortized as an adjustment of interest expense over the remaining terms of the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes and April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes. The net carrying amounts of the debt component of the Toggle Convertible Notes as of June 30, 2023 were as follows: June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes June 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes Principal amount $ 117,041 $ 105,500 $ 11,000 Accrued PIK interest 1,109 999 17 Unamortized discount (2,691) (6,296) — Unamortized issuance costs (8,446) (5,357) — Net carrying amount $ 107,013 $ 94,846 $ 11,017 The net carrying amounts of the debt component of the Toggle Convertible Notes as of December 31, 2022 were as follows: June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes Principal amount $ 210,939 Accrued PIK interest 1,998 Unamortized discount (6,443) Unamortized issuance costs (6,708) Net carrying amount $ 199,786 As of June 30, 2023, the effective interest rates on the June 2022 Toggle Convertible Notes, April 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes and June 2023 Toggle Convertible Notes were 13.90% and 14.38% and 8.00%, respectively. A mortization of the debt discount and issuance costs is reported as a component of interest expense and is computed using the straight-line method over the term of the applicable Toggle Convertible Notes, which approximates the effective interest method.

The purchase price for the 5% Senior Convertible Notes is $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount. Subject to certain conditions being met or waived, at the option of the Company, one or more ad ditional closings for up to the remaining principal amount of 5% Senior Convertible Notes may occur. The aggregate principal amount of 5% Senior Convertible Notes that may be offered in the additional closings may not be more than $22.9 million and the Company’s option to sell additional 5% Senior Convertible Notes will be exercisable until the first anniversary of the date of the Purchase Agreement (or such earlier date as the Company shall determine, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the investors). Each 5% Senior Convertible Note will accrue interest at a rate of 5% per annum, payable in arrears on the first calendar day of each calendar quarter, beginning April 1, 2023 for the Series A Notes, June 1, 2023 for the Series B-1 Notes and July 1, 2023 for the Series B-2 and Series B-3 Notes. Interest will be payable in cash or shares of the Company's common stock or in a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s option. The interest rate will increase to an annual rate of 12.5% per annum upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default under the term of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes. Each 5% Senior Convertible Note issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and Amended Purchase Agreement will have a maturity date of one year from issuance, which may be extended at the option of the noteholders in certain instances. Upon any conversion, redemption or other repayment of a 5% Senior Convertible Note, a “make-whole” amount equal to the amount of additional interest that would accrue under such 5% Senior Convertible Note at the interest rate then in effect assuming that the outstanding principal of such 5% Senior Convertible Notes remained outstanding through and including the maturity date of such 5% Senior Convertible Note. At any time on or after January 9, 2023, all or any portion of the principal amount of each 5% Senior Convertible Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, any make-whole amount and any late charges thereon (the “Conversion Amount”), is convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the noteholder’s option, into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price per share (the “Conversion Price”) equal to the lower of (i) the applicable “reference price”, subject to certain adjustments, (the “Reference Price”), (ii) the greater of (x) the applicable “floor price” (the “Floor Price”) and (y) the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock as of the conversion date, and (iii) the greater of (x) the Floor Price, and as elected by the converting noteholder, (y) either (X) depending on the delivery time of the applicable conversion notice, (1) the VWAP as of the applicable conversion date or (2) the VWAP immediately prior to the applicable conversion date and (Y) 95% of the average VWAP for the three trading days commencing on, and including, the applicable conversion date, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Notes. The Reference Price and Floor Price applicable to each issuance of 5% Senior Convertible Notes is summarized below: Reference Price Floor Price Series A Notes $ 5.975 $ 0.478 Series B-1 Notes $ 4.050 $ 0.478 Series B-2 Notes $ 2.140 $ 0.478 Series B-3 Notes $ 1.952 $ 0.478 At any time during an Event of Default Redemption Right Period (as defined below), a noteholder may alternatively elect to convert all or any portion of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes at an alternate conversion rate (the “Alternate Conversion Rate”) equal to the quotient of (i) 115% of the Conversion Amount divided by (ii) the Conversion Price. Upon a change of control, a noteholder may, subject to certain exceptions, require the Company to redeem all, or any portion, of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes in cash at a price equal to 115% of the greatest of: (i) the Conversion Amount, (ii) the product of (x) the Conversion Amount and (y) the quotient of (I) the greatest closing sale price of the common stock during the period beginning on the date immediately preceding the earlier to occur of (1) the consummation of a change of control and (2) the public announcement of such change of control, and ending on the date the noteholder notifies the Company of its exercise of its right to redeem pursuant to the change of control divided by (II) the Conversion Price, and (iii) the product of (x) the Conversion Amount and (y) the quotient of (I) the aggregate consideration per share of common stock to be paid to the holders of the Common Stock upon consummation of such change of control divided by (II) the Conversion Price. At any time an “Equity Conditions Failure” (as defined in the 5% Senior Convertible Notes) exists at the time of consummation of certain “Subsequent Placements” (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the noteholders have the right, subject to certain exceptions, to require that the Company redeem all, or any portion, of the Conversion Amount of the Notes not in excess of the gross proceeds of such Subsequent Placement at a redemption price of 100% of the Conversion Amount to be redeemed. If the noteholder is participating in such Subsequent Placement, the noteholder may require the Company to apply all, or any part, of any amounts that would otherwise be payable to the noteholder in such redemption, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, against the purchase price of the securities to be purchased by the noteholder in such Subsequent Placement. A noteholder will not have the right to convert any portion of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes, to the extent that, after giving effect to such conversion, the noteholder (together with certain of its affiliates and other related parties) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion (the “Maximum Percentage”). The noteholder may from time to time increase the Maximum Percentage to 9.99%, provided that any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after delivery of a notice to the Company of such increase. The 5% Senior Convertible Notes provide for certain Events of Default, including certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the 5% Senior Convertible Notes become automatically due and payable. At any time after the earlier of (x) a noteholder’s receipt of a required notice of an event of default, and (y) the noteholder becoming aware of an event of default, and ending on the twentieth trading day after the later of (I) the date such event of default is cured, and (II) the investor’s receipt of an event of default notice from the Company (such period, the “Event of Default Redemption Rights Period”), the noteholder may require the Company to redeem, subject to certain exceptions, all or any portion of its Notes at a price equal to 115% of the greater of (i) the Conversion Amount and (ii) the product of the Alternate Conversion Rate and the greatest closing sale price of the common stock on any trading day during the period commencing on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date the Company makes the entire redemption payment. The Company will be subject to certain customary affirmative and negative covenants regarding the rank of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes, the incurrence of certain indebtedness, the repayment of certain indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, and restrictions on certain issuance of securities, among other customary matters. The following table summarizes conversions of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes during the six months ended June 30, 2023: Series A Notes Series B-1 Notes Series B-2 Notes Series B-3 Notes Shares of common stock issued for conversions 21,785,618 21,127,720 21,758,268 22,639,159 Principal balance converted $ 50,000 $ 25,000 $ 15,000 $ 12,075 Make-whole interest converted $ 2,500 $ 1,250 $ 750 $ 604 Average conversion price $ 2.41 $ 1.24 $ 0.72 $ 0.56 The following table summarizes conversions of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes during the three months ended June 30, 2023: Series A Notes Series B-1 Notes Series B-2 Notes Series B-3 Notes Shares of common stock issued for conversions — 10,555,032 21,758,268 22,639,159 Principal balance converted $ — $ 10,714 $ 15,000 $ 12,075 Make-whole interest converted $ — $ 536 $ 750 $ 604 Average conversion price $ — $ 1.07 $ 0.72 $ 0.56 The Company elected to account for the 5% Senior Convertible Notes pursuant to the fair value option under ASC 825. ASC 825-10-15-4 provides for the “fair value option” (“FVO”) election, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by ASC 825-10-15-5, to be afforded to financial instruments, wherein the financial instrument is initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date. The Company believes that the fair value option better reflects the underlying economics of the 5% Senior Convertible Notes. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recognized zero and $50.0 million, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets for the fair value of 5% Senior Convertible Notes outstanding. Financing Obligations On May 10, 2022 (the "Sale Date"), the Company entered into a sale agreement (the "Sale Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company sold the land and property related to the Company's headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona for a purchase price of $52.5 million. As of the Sale Date, $13.1 million was withheld from the proceeds received related to portions of the headquarters undergoing construction. The Company receives the remaining proceeds throughout the completion of construction pursuant to the terms of the Sale Agreement. Concurrent with the sale, the Company entered into a lease agreement (the "Lease Agreement"), whereby the Company leased back the land and property related to the headquarters for an initial term of 20 years with four extension options for 7 years each. As of the Sale Date, the Company considered one extension option reasonably certain of being exercised. The buyer is not considered to have obtained control of the headquarters because the lease is classified as a finance lease. Accordingly, the sale of the headquarters is not recognized and the property and land continue to be recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. As of the Sale Date, the Company recorded $38.3 million as a financing obligation on the Company's consolidated balance sheets representing proceeds received net of debt issuance costs of $1.1 million. Rent payments under the terms of the Lease Agreement will be allocated between interest expense and principal repayments using the effective interest method. Additionally, debt issuance costs will be amortized to interest expense over the lease term. After the Sale Date and through June 30, 2023, the Company recognized an additional $13.1 million for financing obligations on the Company's consolidated balance sheets for construction completed after the Sale Date. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has recognized a HQ Sale Agreement receivable of $6.5 million for funds not yet received for construction completed in prepaid expenses and other current assets. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, of interest expense related to interest on the financing obligation and amortization of debt issuance costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $0.5 million of interest expense related to interest on the financing obligation and amortization of debt issuance costs. On June 29, 2023 (the "Land Sale Date"), the Company entered into a sale agreement (the "Land Sale Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company sold the land in Coolidge, Arizona on which the Company's manufacturing facility is located for a purchase price of $50.4 million. Concurrent with the sale, the Company entered into a lease agreement (the "Land Lease Agreement"), whereby the Company leased back the land for an initial term of 99 years. The Land Lease Agreement grants the Company an option to repurchase the land upon the fiftieth (50th) anniversary of the Land Sale Date for a price equal to the greater of the fair market value, or 300% of the purchase price. As of the Land Sale Date, the Company considered the purchase option reasonably certain of being exercised. The buyer is not considered to have obtained control of the land because the lease is classified as a finance lease. Accordingly, the sale of the land in Coolidge, Arizona is not recognized and the land continues to be recognized on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. As of the Land Sale Date, the Company recorded $49.4 million as a financing obligation on the Company's consolidated balance sheets representing proceeds received net of debt issuance costs of $1.0 million. Rent payments under the terms of the Land Lease Agreement will be allocated between interest expense and principal repayments using the effective interest method. Additionally, debt issuance costs will be amortized to interest expense over the lease term. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, interest expense related to interest on the financing obligation and amortization of debt issuance costs was immaterial. Collateralized Promissory Notes On June 7, 2022, the Company executed a promissory note and a master security agreement (the "Master Security Agreement") for $50.0 million at a stated interest rate of 4.26% (the "Collateralized Note"). The Collateralized Note is fully collateralized by certain personal property assets as fully described in the Master Security Agreement. The carrying value of personal property assets pledged as collateral was $31.3 million as of June 30, 2023. Additionally, in connection with the Collateralized Note, the Company executed a pledge agreement pursuant to which the Company pledged $50.0 million in cash as additional collateral in order to obtain a more favorable interest rate. The amount pledged is recorded in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023. The Collateralized Note carries a 60 month term and is payable in 60 equal consecutive monthly installments due in arrears. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.9 million of interest expense, respectively, on the Collateralized Note.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE | STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE 2017 and 2020 Stock Plans The 2017 Stock Option Plan (the “2017 Plan”) provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified options to purchase common stock to officers, employees, directors, and consultants. Options were granted at a price not less than the fair market value on the date of grant and generally became exercisable between one On June 2, 2020, the stockholders approved the Nikola Corporation 2020 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan") and the Nikola Corporation 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "2020 ESPP"). The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), restricted share awards, stock appreciation awards, and cash-based awards to employees, outside directors, and consultants of the Company. The 2020 Plan and the 2020 ESPP became effective immediately upon the closing of the Business Combination. No offerings have been authorized to date by the Company's board of directors under the ESPP. Stock Options The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the fair value of options granted. Options vest in accordance with the terms set forth in the grant letter. Time-based options generally vest ratably over a period of approximately 36 months. Changes in stock options are as follows: Options Weighted Weighted Average Outstanding at December 31, 2022 22,470,585 $ 1.31 5.33 Granted — — Exercised 756,372 1.06 Cancelled 162,786 1.31 Outstanding at June 30, 2023 21,551,427 $ 1.32 3.68 Vested and exercisable as of June 30, 2023 21,551,427 $ 1.32 3.68 Restricted Stock Units The fair value of RSUs is based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The time-based RSUs generally vest in increments over a three-year period or, in the case of executive officers, cliff-vest following the third anniversary from the date of grant. The RSUs to directors have a vesting cliff of one year after the grant date. Changes in RSUs are as follows: Number of RSUs Balance at December 31, 2022 19,574,800 Granted 10,228,956 Released 7,772,641 Cancelled 4,202,956 Balance at June 30, 2023 17,828,159 Market Based RSUs Through the first quarter of 2023, the Company's market based RSUs contained a stock price index as a benchmark for vesting. The awards vest depending upon a consecutive 20-trading day stock price target of the Company’s common stock. The Company's stock price target was $25 per share. During the second quarter of 2023, the market based RSUs subject to the $25 stock price milestone were cancelled and the Company expensed $6.8 million related to the cancelled awards representing the remaining unamortized expense as of the cancellation date. On April 24, 2023, the Company granted 2,900,000 performance-based RSUs to the Company's executive officers, which entitle them to receive a specified number of shares of the Company's common stock upon vesting. The number of shares earned could range between 0% and 200% of the target award depending upon the Company's performance at the conclusion of the three-year performance period, ending December 31, 2025. The performance condition of the awards is based on total shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company's common stock relative to a broad group of green energy companies. The TSR performance condition is deemed a market condition. The fair value of the TSR awards on the grant date was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which utilizes significant assumptions including stock volatility and risk free rates, and does not change throughout the vesting period. The grant date fair value of the TSR awards was determined to be $4.0 million and is recognized over the vesting period. The following represents the significant assumptions used to determine the grant date fair value for the TSR awards: April 24, 2023 Stock price $ 0.82 Term (years) 2.70 Risk-free interest rate 3.9 % Expected volatility 99.0 % Expected dividend yield — % Changes in market based RSUs are as follows: Number of Market Based RSUs Balance at December 31, 2022 2,071,058 Granted 2,900,000 Released — Cancelled 2,071,058 Balance at June 30, 2023 2,900,000 Stock Compensation Expense The following table presents the impact of stock-based compensation expense on the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Cost of revenues $ 668 $ — $ 1,399 $ — Research and development 6,574 9,300 15,660 18,007 Selling, general, and administrative 18,467 45,541 33,198 90,362 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 25,709 $ 54,841 $ 50,257 $ 108,369 As of June 30, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense was as follows: Unrecognized Compensation Expense Market based RSUs $ 3,702 RSUs 69,956 Total unrecognized compensation expense at June 30, 2023 $ 73,658 |

The Company deconsolidated Romeo as of the Assignment as the Company no longer held a controlling financial interest in Romeo as of that date. The Company did not have any amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with Romeo at the time of deconsolidation.

In order to deconsolidate Romeo, the carrying values of the assets and liabilities of Romeo were removed from the Company's consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023. In connection with the deconsolidation, the Company recognized a loss from deconsolidation of subsidiaries of $24.9 million which is recorded in loss from deconsolidation of discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and consisted of the following: June 30, 2023 Assets deconsolidated: Cash and cash equivalents $ 213 Accounts receivable, net — Inventory 7,271 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 3,351 Restricted cash and cash equivalents, non-current 1,500 Property, plant and equipment, net 17,555 Intangible assets, net 656 Investments in affiliates 10,000 Other assets 23,364 Total assets deconsolidated $ 63,910 Liabilities deconsolidated: Accounts payable $ 15,583 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 57,612 Debt and finance lease liabilities, current 1,206 Long-term debt and finance lease liabilities, net of current portion 1,160 Operating lease liabilities 21,664 Warrant liability 8 Other non-current liabilities — Total liabilities deconsolidated 97,233 Net liabilities derecognized from deconsolidation (33,323) Less: intercompany balances derecognized 54,084 Less: cash payments directly related to deconsolidation 2,724 Less: derecognition of goodwill 1,450 Loss from deconsolidation of discontinued operation $ 24,935 As of December 31, 2022, the assets and liabilities of Romeo subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors have been reflected as assets subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors and liabilities subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and consisted of the following: December 31, 2022 Assets: Current assets Cash and cash equivalents $ 7,555 Accounts receivable, net 262 Inventory 11,327 Prepaid expenses and other current assets 9,881 Total current assets subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors 29,025 Non-current assets Restricted cash and cash equivalents, non-current 1,500 Property, plant and equipment, net 19,221 Intangible assets, net 621 Investments in affiliates 10,000 Prepayment - Long-term Supply Agreement 44,835 Other assets 23,948 Total non-current assets subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors 100,125 Total assets subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors $ 129,150 Liabilities: Current liabilities Accounts payable $ 24,672 Accrued expenses and other current liabilities 22,990 Debt and finance lease liabilities, current 1,440 Total current liabilities subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors 49,102 Long-term liabilities Long-term debt and finance lease liabilities, net of current portion 1,499 Operating lease liabilities 22,132 Warrant liability 40 Total long-term liabilities subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors 23,671 Total liabilities subject to assignment for the benefit of creditors $ 72,773 The following represents the major components of loss from discontinued operations presented in the consolidated statements of operations: For the three months ended June 30, 2023 For the six months ended June 30, 2023 Revenues $ 1,225 $ 1,665 Cost of revenues 2,272 12,926 Gross loss (1,047) (11,261) Operating expenses: Research and development 3,053 5,673 Selling, general and administrative 3,926 14,937 Loss on supplier deposits 44,835 44,835 Total operating expenses 51,814 65,445 Loss from operations (52,861) (76,706) Other income (expense), net Interest expense, net (22) (53) Revaluation of warrant liability — 33 Loss from discontinued operations $ (52,883) $ (76,726) |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES To calculate the interim tax provision, at the end of each interim period the Company estimates the annual effective tax rate and applies that to its ordinary quarterly earnings. The effect of changes in the enacted tax laws or rates is recognized in the interim period in which the change occurs. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and judgments including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent differences between book and tax amounts, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current year. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained, or the tax environment changes. Beginning in 2022, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") requires taxpayers to capitalize certain research and development costs and amortize them over five or fifteen years pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 174. Previously, such costs could be deducted in the period they were incurred. This provision is not anticipated to impact our effective tax rate or result in any cash payments for our federal income taxes. Income tax expense was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 due to cumulative tax losses. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings The Company is subject to legal and regulatory actions that arise from time to time. The assessment as to whether a loss is probable or reasonably possible, and as to whether such loss or a range of such loss is estimable, often involves significant judgment about future events, and the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. The Company expenses professional legal fees as incurred, which are included in selling, general, and administrative expense on the consolidated financial statements. Other than as described below, there is no material pending or threatened litigation against the Company that remains outstanding as of June 30, 2023. Regulatory and Governmental Investigations and Related Internal Review In September 2020, a short seller reported on certain aspects of the Company’s business and operations. The Company and its board of directors retained Kirkland & Ellis LLP to conduct an internal review in connection with the short-seller article (the “Internal Review”), and Kirkland & Ellis LLP promptly contacted the Division of Enforcement of the SEC to make it aware of the commencement of the Internal Review. The Company subsequently learned that the Staff of the Division of Enforcement and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York (the “SDNY”) had opened investigations. By order dated December 21, 2021, the Company and the SEC reached a settlement arising out of the SEC’s investigation of the Company. Under the terms of the settlement, without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings, the Company among other things, agreed to pay a $125 million civil penalty. The first $25 million installment was paid at the end of 2021 and the remaining installments to be paid semiannually through 2023. The Company previously reserved the full amount of the settlement in the quarter ended September 30, 2021, as disclosed in the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for such quarter, filed with the SEC on November 4, 2021. In July 2022, the Company and SEC agreed to an alternative payment plan with the first two payments of $5 million to be paid in July 2022 and December 2022. The July 2022 and December 2022 payments have been made by the Company. In February 2023, the Company and the SEC agreed to another alternative payment plan, with the next two payments of $1.5 million each to be paid in March 2023 and June 2023. The March 2023 and June 2023 payments have been made by the Company. The remainder of the payment plan is subject to determination. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has reflected the remaining liability of $87.0 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The legal and other professional costs the Company incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 in connection with the Internal Review and disclosed elsewhere in this Report include approximately zero and $0.2 million, respectively, expensed for Mr. Milton's attorneys' fees under his indemnification agreement with the Company. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company expensed $9.0 million and $19.6 million, respectively, for Mr. Milton's attorneys' fees under his indemnification agreement with the Company. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, accrued expenses for legal and other professional costs for Mr. Milton's attorneys' fees under his indemnification agreement were immaterial. To the extent that these investigations and any resulting third-party claims yield adverse results over time, such results could jeopardize the Company's operations and exhaust its cash reserves, and could cause stockholders to lose their entire investment. The Company is currently seeking reimbursement from Mr. Milton for costs and damages arising from the actions that are the subject of the government and regulatory investigations. Shareholder Securities Litigation The Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors are defendants in a consolidated securities class action lawsuit pending in the United States District Court of the District of Arizona (the "Shareholder Securities Litigation"). On December 15, 2020, the United States District Court for the District of Arizona consolidated the actions under lead case Borteanu v. N ikola Corporation, et al., No. CV-20-01797-PXL-SPL, and appointed Angelo Baio as the “Lead Plaintiff”. On December 23, 2020, a motion for reconsideration of the Court’s order appointing the Lead Plaintiff was filed. On December 30, 2020, a petition for writ of mandamus seeking to vacate the District Court’s Lead Plaintiff order and directing the court to appoint another Lead Plaintiff was filed before the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, Case No. 20-73819. The motion for reconsideration was denied on February 18, 2021. On July 23, 2021, the Ninth Circuit granted in part the mandamus petition, vacated the district court’s December 15, 2020 order, and remanded the case to the District Court to reevaluate the appointment of a Lead Plaintiff. On November 18, 2021, the Court appointed Nikola Investor Group II as Lead Plaintiff. On January 24, 2022, Lead Plaintiffs filed the Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint which asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, based on allegedly false and/or misleading statements and omissions in press releases, public filings, and in social media regarding the Company's business plan and prospects. In accordance with the Court’s scheduling order, Defendants filed their motions to dismiss on April 8, 2022. On May 9, 2022, Plaintiffs filed their opposition to Defendants' motions to dismiss, and on June 8, 2022, Defendants filed their reply briefs. On February 2, 2023, the court issued a ruling granting the Defendants' motions to dismiss, without prejudice. As a result, Plaintiffs' complaint was dismissed in its entirety, with leave to amend by April 3, 2023. On April 3, 2023, Plaintiff's filed the Second Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint. In accordance with the Court’s scheduling order, Defendants filed their motions to dismiss the Second Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint on May 15, 2023. On June 14, 2023, Plaintiffs filed their oppositions to Defendants’ motions to dismiss, and on June 29, 2023, Defendants filed their reply briefs. The Court has not yet ruled on the motions. Plaintiffs seek an unspecified amount in damages, attorneys’ fees, and other relief. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself. The Company is unable to estimate the potential loss or range of loss, if any, associated with these lawsuits, which could be material. Derivative Litigation Beginning on September 23, 2020, two purported shareholder derivative actions were filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware ( Byun v. Milton, et al. , Case No. 1:20-cv-01277-UNA; Salguocar v. Girsky et. al., Case No. 1:20-cv-01404-UNA), purportedly on behalf of the Company, against certain of the Company's current and former directors alleging breaches of fiduciary duties, violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, and gross mismanagement. The Byun action also brings claims for unjust enrichment and abuse of control, while the Salguocar action brings a claim for waste of corporate assets. On October 19, 2020, the Byun action was stayed until 30 days after the earlier of (a) the Shareholder Securities Litigation being dismissed in their entirety with prejudice; (b) defendants filing an answer to any complaint in the Shareholder Securities Litigation; or (c) a joint request by plaintiff and defendants to lift the stay. On November 17, 2020, the Byun and Salguocar actions were consolidated as In re Nikola Corporation Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. 20-cv-01277-CFC. In its order consolidating the actions, the Court applied the Byun stay to the consolidated action. On January 31, 2023, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. The consolidated action remains stayed. On December 18, 2020, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, Huhn v. Milton et al., Case No. 2:20-cv-02437-DWL, purportedly on behalf of the Company, against certain of the Company’s current and former directors alleging breaches of fiduciary duties, violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, unjust enrichment, and against defendant Jeff Ubben, a member of the Company’s board of directors, insider selling and misappropriation of information. On January 26, 2021, the Huhn action was stayed until 30 days after the earlier of (a) the Shareholder Securities Litigation being dismissed in its entirety with prejudice; (b) defendants filing an answer to any complaint in the Shareholder Securities Litigation; or (c) a joint request by plaintiff and defendants to lift the stay. The Huhn action remains stayed. On January 7, 2022, Barbara Rhodes, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed her Verified Stockholder Derivative Complaint in Delaware Chancery Court captioned Rhodes v. Milton, et al. and Nikola Corp. , C.A. No. 2022-0023-KSJM (the “ Rhodes Action”). On January 10, 2022, Zachary BeHage and Benjamin Rowe (together, the “BeHage Rowe Plaintiffs”), purported stockholders of the Company, filed their Verified Shareholder Derivative Complaint in Delaware Chancery Court captioned BeHage v. Milton, et al. and Nikola Corp. , C.A. No. 2022-0045-KSJM (the “BeHage Rowe Action” together with the Rhodes Action, the “Related Actions”). The Related Actions are against certain of the Company’s current and former directors and allege breach of fiduciary duties, insider selling under Brophy , aiding and abetting insider selling, aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duties, unjust enrichment, and waste of corporate assets. On January 28, 2022, Rhodes and the BeHage Rowe Plaintiffs filed a stipulation and proposed order for consolidation of the Related Actions. The proposed order states that Defendants need not answer, move, or otherwise respond to the complaints filed in the Related Actions and contemplates that counsel for Plaintiffs shall file a consolidated complaint or designate an operative complaint within fourteen days of entry of an order consolidating these actions and shall meet and confer with counsel for Defendants or any other party regarding a schedule for Defendants to respond to the operative complaint. The Court granted this proposed order on February 1, 2022 and consolidated the Related Actions as In re Nikola Corporation Derivative Litigation , C.A. No. 2022-0023-KJSM (the "Consolidated Related Actions"). On February 15, 2022, Rhodes and the BeHage Rowe Plaintiffs filed a Verified Consolidated Amended Stockholder Derivative Complaint in the Related Actions (the “Amended Complaint”). On April 4, 2022, the parties filed a stipulation and proposed order, pursuant to which the parties to the Related Actions agreed that Defendants need not answer, move, or otherwise respond to certain counts of the Amended Complaint. In accordance with the Court-ordered stipulation, Defendants filed their motions to stay the remaining counts of the Amended Complaint on April 13, 2022. Plaintiffs filed their oppositions on May 4, 2022, and Defendants filed their replies on May 25, 2022. In a bench ruling following a telephonic oral argument on June 1, 2022, the Court granted Defendants' motions to stay the remaining counts of the Amended Complaint. The Court ordered the Defendants to submit a status report on October 31, 2022, or within three days of receipt of a decision on the motions to dismiss in the Shareholder Securities Litigation, whichever comes first, in which Defendants can request a continued stay of the Related Actions. The stay was subsequently extended until January 10, 2023, by court order and, on January 12, 2023, the parties entered into a stipulation staying in the actions until the earlier of February 14, 2023 or a resolution of the motions to dismiss in the Shareholder Securities Litigation. The stay was automatically lifted on February 2, 2023, when the Shareholder Securities Litigation was dismissed. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on February 14, 2023. On March 10, 2022, Michelle Brown and Crisanto Gomes (together, the “Brown & Gomes Plaintiffs”), purported stockholders of the Company, filed a Verified Shareholder Derivative Complaint in Delaware Chancery Court captioned Brown v. Milton, et al. and Nikola Corp. , C.A. No. 2022-0223-KSJM (the “Brown & Gomes Action”). The Brown & Gomes Action is against certain of the Company’s current and former directors and alleges claims against those defendants for purported breaches of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. On March 14, 2022, the Brown & Gomes Plaintiffs notified the court in the Related Actions of their belief that the Brown & Gomes Action properly belongs as part of the Consolidated Related Actions. On January 12, 2023, the parties entered into a stipulation consolidating the Brown & Gomes Action in the Consolidated Related Actions. On May 3, 2023, each of the current and former director defendants moved to partially dismiss the amended complaint. Briefing is scheduled to conclude by August 25, 2023, and oral argument is scheduled for October 13, 2023. The complaints seek unspecified monetary damages, costs and fees associated with bringing the actions, and reform of the Company's corporate governance, risk management and operating practices. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the foregoing complaints. The Company is unable to estimate the potential loss or range of loss, if any, associated with these lawsuits, which could be material. In addition, on March 8, 2021, the Company received a demand letter from a law firm representing a purported stockholder of the Company alleging facts and claims substantially the same as many of the facts and claims in the filed derivative shareholder lawsuit. The demand letter requests that the board of directors (i) undertake an independent internal investigation into certain board members and management’s purported violations of Delaware and/or federal law; and (ii) commence a civil action against those members of the board and management for alleged fiduciary breaches. In April 2021, the board of directors formed a demand review committee, consisting of independent directors Bruce L. Smith and Mary L. Petrovich, to review such demands and provide input to the Company and retained independent counsel. Upon completion of the independent internal investigation by the demand review committee, it was recommended that the board take no action in response to the demand letter at this time. The independent counsel for the demand review committee provided an update to counsel for the stockholder who sent the demand letter. There can be no assurance as to whether any litigation will be commenced by or against the Company by the purported shareholder with respect to the claims set forth in the demand letter, or whether any such litigation could be material. Additionally, on December 23, 2022, the Company received another demand letter from a law firm representing a purported stockholder of the Company alleging facts and claims substantially the same as many of the facts and claims in the filed derivative shareholder lawsuits. The demand letter requests that the board’s demand review committee (i) undertake an independent internal investigation into certain board members and management’s purported violations of Delaware and/or federal law; and (ii) commence a civil action against those members of the board and management for alleged fiduciary breaches. In February 2023, the board of directors reengaged the demand review committee, consisting of independent directors Bruce L. Smith, and Mary L. Petrovich, to review such demands and provide input to the Company and retained independent counsel. There can be no assurance as to whether any litigation will be commenced by or against the Company by the purported shareholder with respect to the claims set forth in the demand letter, or whether any such litigation could be material. Lion Electric matter On March 2, 2023, Lion Electric filed a complaint against Nikola in Arizona federal district court alleging that Nikola tortiously interfered with the Romeo Power, Inc. / Lion Electric business relationship and Lion’s business expectancy from the commercial relationship. Nikola denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend the matter. Based upon information presently known to management, the Company is not currently able to estimate the outcome of this proceeding or a possible range of loss, if any. Lightning eMotors matter On March 9, 2023, Lighting eMotors filed a complaint alleging that Nikola tortiously interfered with the Romeo Power, Inc. / Lightning eMotors business relationship and Lightning’s business expectancy. Nikola denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend the matter. Based upon information presently known to management, the Company is not currently able to estimate the outcome of this proceeding or a possible range of loss, if any. All State Fastener matter On February 28, 2023, All State Fastener (ASF) filed a complaint in the eastern district of Michigan alleging breaches of contract against Nikola. The basis of the allegations relates to a dispute for the supply of fasteners used in Nikola’s vehicles. ASF alleges that Nikola has breached the purchase order agreement. Nikola denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend the matter. Based upon information presently known to management, the Company is not currently able to estimate the outcome of this proceeding or a possible range of loss, if any. Commitments and Contingencies FCPM License In the third quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a FCPM license to intellectual property that will be used to adapt, further develop and assemble FCPMs. Payments for the license will be due in installments ranging from 2022 to 2025. As of June 30, 2023, the Company accrued $13.6 million in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $19.1 million in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Inventory Repurchase Agreements During the first quarter of 2023, the Company entered into an arrangement with a finance company to provide floor plan financing to its dealers (the "Floor Plan"). The Company receives payment from the finance company following shipment of trucks to the dealers, and the Company participates in the cost of dealer financing up to certain limits. In conjunction with the Floor Plan, the Company entered into an inventory repurchase agreement (the "Inventory Repurchase Agreement") with the finance company, whereby the Company has agreed to repurchase trucks re-possessed by the financing company in the event of a dealer default, at the financing company's option. As of June 30, 2023, the maximum potential cash payments the Company could be required to make under the terms of the Inventory Repurchase Agreement was $12.3 million. The Company's financial exposure under the Inventory Repurchase Agreement is limited to the difference between the amount paid to the financing company and the amount received upon subsequent resale of the re-possessed truck. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had not repurchased any trucks under the terms of the Inventory Repurchase Agreement, nor received any requests for repurchase. Leases executed not yet commenced During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company entered various lease agreements related to hydrogen fueling infrastructure which have not yet commenced. Undiscounted lease payments related to these obligations are $2.5 million. |

NET LOSS PER SHARE | NET LOSS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of the basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Numerator: Net loss from continuing operations $ (140,010) $ (172,997) $ (285,261) $ (325,938) Net loss from discontinued operations (77,818) — (101,661) — Net loss $ (217,828) $ (172,997) $ (386,922) $ (325,938) Denominator: Weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted 708,692,817 425,323,391 629,630,362 420,266,181 Net loss per share, basic and diluted: Net loss from continuing operations $ (0.20) $ (0.41) $ (0.45) $ (0.78) Net loss from discontinued operations $ (0.11) $ — $ (0.16) $ — Net loss $ (0.31) $ (0.41) $ (0.61) $ (0.78) Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss, adjusted for the revaluation of warrant liability for the private warrants, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of shares of common stock equivalents resulting from the assumed exercise of the warrants. The treasury stock method was used to calculate the potential dilutive effect of these common stock equivalents. There were no adjustments for revaluations of the warrant liability as the warrants outstanding are anti-dilutive for all periods presented. Potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss when their effect was antidilutive. The following outstanding common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because including them would have been anti-dilutive.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 6 Months Ended |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The unaudited financial information reflects, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. The results reported for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as amended. |
Consolidation | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. |
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash EquivalentsAs of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $68.7 million and $88.1 million, respectively, in current and non-current restricted cash. Restricted cash represents cash that is restricted as to withdrawal or usage and primarily consists of securitization of the Company's letters of credit, leases, and debt. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Truck sales Truck sales consist of revenue recognized on the sales of the Company's BEV trucks. The sale of a truck is generally recognized as a single performance obligation at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer (dealers). Control is deemed transferred when the product is picked up by the carrier and the customer (dealer) can direct the product's use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the product. The Company may offer certain after-market upgrades at the request of the dealers. If a contract contains more than one distinct performance obligation, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation. The Company does not offer returns on truck sales. Revenue is recognized based on the transaction price, which is measured as the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring the product pursuant to the terms of the contract with its customer. The transaction price may be adjusted, if applicable, for variable consideration, such as customer rebates and financing costs on floor plan arrangements, which requires the Company to make estimates for the portion of these allowances that have yet to be credited to customers. Payments for trucks sold are made in accordance with the Company's customary payment terms. The Company has elected an accounting policy whereby the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because, at contract inception, the Company expects the period between the time when the Company transfers a promised good or service to the customer and the time when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less. Sales tax collected from customers is not considered revenue and is accrued until remitted to the taxing authorities. Shipping and handling activities occur after the customer has obtained control of the product, thus the Company has elected to account for those expenses as fulfillment costs in cost of revenues, rather than an additional promised service. Services and other Services and other revenues consist of sales of mobile charging trailers ("MCTs") and other charging products. The sale of MCTs and other charging products is recognized as a single performance obligation at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is deemed transferred when the product is delivered to the customer and the customer can direct the product's use and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company does not offer sales returns on MCTs and other charging products. Payment for products sold are made in accordance with the Company's customary payment terms and the Company's contracts do not have significant financing components. The Company has elected to exclude sales taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. (d) Warranties Warranty costs are recognized upon transfer of control of trucks to dealers, and are estimated based on factors including the length of the warranty, product costs, supplier warranties, and product failure rates. Warranty reserves are reviewed and adjusted quarterly to ensure that accruals are adequate to meet expected future warranty obligations. Initial warranty data is limited early in the launch of a new product and accordingly, future adjustments to the warranty accrual may be material. |
Inventory | Inventory cost is computed using standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories are written down for any excess or obsolescence and when net realizable value, which is based upon estimated selling prices, is in excess of carrying value. Once inventory is written-down, a new, lower cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration of or increase in that newly established cost basis. |
