Besides some that were sold in the past like the gen 1 and 2 Rav4 EV, Scion iQ EV (https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find.do?action=sbs&id=33307) and COMS (https://www.toyota-body.co.jp/english/products/ev.html), discuss others that are Toyota-branded.

TIL I learned of the Toyota Izoa EV from about 8:48 of https://youtu.be/rCNjDTiq4Rc. Apparently, there's also a C-HR EV: http://autonews.gasgoo.com/new_energy/70017066.html.

I haven't finished watching the above video but I do question some of the prices. Some sound really low and might be after significant tax incentives. Example is the BYD e2 at around 3:15. 70 kWh battery car for 100,000 RMB that works out to under $15K USD. Sounds too cheap to me, even for the Chinese market.

TOKYO, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T) said on Tuesday it expected to spend more than $13.5 billion by 2030 to develop batteries and its battery supply system, in a bid to take a lead in the key automotive technology over the next decade.
