Vehicles

Since the 1960s, the company's propulsion systems have powered over two thousand vehicles. These have been American and European automotive platforms, while the others have been of the company's own brand of vehicles, including Mars I and II, Mars Van, Transformer I, Silver Volt I. The company's newer vehicles included Mars III, Silver Volt II and GT, and the air supported vehicle ASV I.

In 1966, the company built and tested the Mars I electric car using a tri-polar lead-cobalt battery. Within five years, EFP had introduced of the Electrosport station wagon as the first mass-produced electric car. To demonstrate the viability of their electric car business at that time, EFP also created the "World's First Electric Car Expressway" between Detroit and Chicago.
