The startup had picked a factory in Austria to make its trucks and had been working toward mass production.
Representatives of executives at Alvarez & Marsal Europe (A&M), who have been appointed as bankruptcy administrators for Volta Trucks' UK operations, could not be reached for comment.
A few, including EV parts supplier Proterra and electric pickup truck maker Lordstown Motors, have begun bankruptcy proceedings.
