ELCAT is an battery electric vehicle manufacturer based in Järvenpää, Finland.

It was owned by electricity producer Fortum. Elcat began working in 1974 to design electric cars for Nordic climate. The first prototypes were made in 1985 and the first commercial product was released in 1990. Production ceased in 2002, when Subaru dropped the van model and Elcat lacked the resources to design the systems of a new model. To date more than 160 cars have been made. Main users were Posti (post of Finland) and Stockholm-based delivery service. Now almost all cars are in second-hand use.

Car models are:

  • Cityvan, speed 72 km/h, distance 70 km
  • Cityvan 200, speed 80 km/h, distance 70 km
  • Cityvan 202, speed 90 km/h, distance 80 km
  • Citywagon 202, speed 88 km/h, distance 76 km
