The Comuta-Car was essentially a re-worked CitiCar, with the batteries moved out from under the 2-passenger bench seat and out into the front and rear bumpers and a more powerful electric motor. Hundreds of these cars were produced, and many are still in operation. Most used a 48-volt configuration (8 x 6-volt lead-acid golf-cart batteries), although some 60-volt vehicles were produced as a higher-performance model. In Canada, Comuta-Cars are known to have run in Nepean ON, Ottawa ON, Brampton ON, Toronto ON.
