It started when Paul Reissmann in 1873, founded a company called Mars, in Nuremberg, Germany. The company originally producing stoves and furnaces of iron. Then the company is growing rapidly and subsequently began producing manual siren then engined, grinding machines and bicycles.

In 1903 the company started making the construction of motorcycles and small cars. From the motorcycle production resulted in several designs, one the most famous design was a legendary motorcycle called Mars A20 Weiße Mars or White Mars (due to the color was white) designed by an engineer named Claus Franzenburger in 1920 (Actually, the motorbikes also available in the color of red and green).

This motorcycle uses a boxer twin-engine of Maybach (now the high tech division of Mercedes-Benz) that has a capacity of 955 cc, while horsepower figures were believed to be just over 7 hp at the wheel and 12 hp at the crankshaft. It using a pressed steel frame and has a unique design and relatively very futuristic at the time.
But unfortunately, when there is inflation at around 1923/1924, the company is experiencing financial difficulties and in the end, the company ceased operations in 1958.
