GEP (France) - AllCarIndex

Automobiles G.E.P. was a French automobile manufacturer established in the early 20th century. Founded by Emile Godefroy in Gennevilliers, Seine, the company operated briefly from 1913 to 1914. Godefroy had previously partnered with Louis Le Metais, who produced the Le Metais vehicles from 1904 to 1910. The name G.E.P. was derived from the initials of Godefroy and his partners, Esmenard and Pons.

The company specialized in producing cyclecars, which were lightweight vehicles designed for economy and efficiency. The G.E.P. featured a friction transmission and chain drive system. It offered three engine options: a 664cc 8hp single-cylinder engine, a 1058cc 10hp twin-cylinder engine, and a 1131cc 10hp four-cylinder engine, the latter of which was manufactured by Ballot. The vehicle lineup included 2- or 4-seater torpedo bodies on the four-cylinder chassis, while the other models were available as 2-seaters. Additionally, light vans were part of the offerings.

Despite plans to revive the G.E.P. brand after World War I, these intentions did not come to fruition, and the company ceased operations shortly after its initial production run.
