The CitiCar, produced between 1974 and 1977 by US-based Sebring-Vanguard, Inc. is definitely not stylish, though it did prove that electric worked in a compact, lightweight package. With only eight six-volt deep-cycle batteries on board, these little guys were said to have less than 5 hp, could only do 35-40 mph, and could only travel about 40-50 miles on a single charge.
Only 2,300 or so CitiCars were ever produced, but still that was enough to make it the most-produced electric vehicle in American history until the Tesla Roadster took over. Today, the CitiCar is cherished by collectors.
