The trucks on display were converted from traditional internal combustion engines to EVs in order to reduce the operational costs of the vehicles while retaining the ability to climb steep hills and rough terrain without compromising speed. The e-Porter is a one ton, (2,200 lb load) truck, while the e-Labo is a half ton pick-up truck. Leo also exhibited an electric passenger car, motorcycle, utility EV, and five e-scooters.

Leo is also displaying its electric power trains in 7 different power capacities from 3kW to 240kW, Battery Management System Plug-in Electric Hybrid generators and electrification services. Leo's EV systems are designed to achieve optimal power and integrate the control system of EV motors and power storage to make EVs run better than internal combustion engine vehicles.

The vehicles were tested and certified to be effective by the Korean authorities before the trade show.
