Corbin-Pacific Inc. was an American automotive manufacturer based in Hollister, California. The company was known for its innovative approach to electric vehicles, particularly through the development of the Corbin Sparrow, a distinctive three-wheeled electric car.

The Corbin Sparrow featured a teardrop-shaped enclosed body, which contributed to its aerodynamic design. It was powered by a 15 kW electric motor and utilized a configuration of 13 lead-acid batteries. The vehicle was anticipated to be priced at approximately $13,000, making it an accessible option in the electric vehicle market at the time.

In addition to the electric version, Corbin-Pacific Inc. planned to introduce a variant of the Sparrow equipped with a V-twin petrol engine, which was projected to achieve a top speed of 150 mph (241 km/h). This dual approach highlighted the company's ambition to cater to both electric and traditional fuel markets, although the extent of production and market impact of these models remains limited in historical records.
