If all goes according to plan, Thomas Healy, 28, will become America’s youngest self-made billionaire next week when shareholders of publicly traded Tortoise Acquisition Group vote September 28 to acquire Hyliion, the Austin-based heavy-duty electric truck company that Healy founded. After that, the ticker symbol will change from SHLL to HYLN, and the new company will get $560 million cash with which to build out Healy’s vision for the future of electrified heavy-duty trucks.
