The Corbin Sparrow is a battery-powered, single-passenger, electric vehicle designed for commuting and city driving produced by Corbin Motors.
Powered by a 20kW 156-volt DC or 3-phase AC motor, the Sparrow has a range of 20 to 40 miles. The Corbin Sparrow has a top speed of 70 mph. Energy is supplied by thirteen 12-volt deep-cycle lead-acid batteries.
Two models were produced: the original "jelly bean" model and a hatchback model, which was designed for use by Domino's Pizza. The vehicles are so eye-catching that Hollywood star Mike Myers featured a group of them in the Austin Powers movie Goldmember.
