Tama Electric Car

After the war, oil was scarce but electricity was plentiful, so for a period the government promoted the manufacture of electric vehicles. With this encouragement, the "Tama" was introduced. In performance tests conducted by the Commerce & Industry Ministry, it did better than its catalog specifications with a cruising range of 96.3 km and a top speed of 35.2 km/h.
