The Toyota EV-30 was an electric vehicle for two passengers and featured zinc-bromine batteries. The EV-30 was a concept two-seat electric vehicle by Toyota that was first shown at the October 1987 Tokyo Motor Show.
The body was made from resin and shown in both open and closed cockpit forms, although both had no doors. The front bumper sloped back and upwards, running into the cabin to form the dashboard. The rear bumper sloped forward and down, running into the cabin to form the side armrests. The construction was lightweight, designed as an LSV for use inside shopping malls, hospitals, and similar environments.
Zinc-bromide batteries of 106 V were used to power an AC induction motor. This gave it a top speed of 27 mph. When driven at 19 mph, it had a range of 103 miles. The batteries could be charged from a standard Japanese 100 V mains socket.
