Commuter Vehicles Inc. was an American automotive manufacturer based in Sebring, Florida, that operated from 1979 to approximately 1982. The company specialized in electric vehicles, focusing on compact designs suitable for urban commuting.

One of the notable models produced by Commuter Vehicles was the Triton, a two-seater hatchback electric coupe.

In addition to the Triton, Commuter Vehicles Inc. expanded its lineup to include a larger van or estate car model. The electric vehicles offered by the company had a range of approximately 50 miles at a cruising speed of 35 mph (56 km/h), making them suitable for short-distance travel and urban environments. The company's efforts contributed to the early development of electric vehicles in the United States, although it eventually ceased operations in the early 1980s.
