(Twitter Photo/@nikolamotor) (Twitter Photo/@nikolamotor) PHOENIX — Nikola Corporation — a Phoenix-headquartered zero-emissions vehicle maker — is completing its battery manufacturing move from California to Arizona this spring. The move to Coolidge is expected to wrap up ahead of schedule by April, the corporation said in a press release on Thursday. Nikola's decision to relocate comes after it acquired battery maker Romeo Power Inc. — based in Cypress, Calif. — in October. Relocating allows the manufacturer to save costs while housing truck assembly, fuel cell power module assembly and battery module and pack production under one roof, the company said.
