OVELAND, Colo. & PALO ALTO, Calif. – Lightning eMotors, a leading provider of commercial electric vehicles for fleets, and GigCapital3, Inc. (“GigCapital3”), today announced that they are completing their previously announced business combination. The business combination was approved by GigCapital3 stockholders on April 21, 2021.
