Surge protector. It is just that protecs for high electric surge and nothing more. It is a one hit wonder. It works one time and self distructs.
EMS. protects from high and low voltage. Will nor let voltage thru if the source is not correct.
Hughes Autotrans boost low voltage 10%
Hughes auto trans in front of EMS is the best protection.

The Surge Guard ATS model 40450 is installed on Thor MC's high end diesel coaches, all Entegra diesels and high end Newmar diesels. <https://rvpower.southwire.com/products/transfer-switches/surge-guard-50a-rvc-automatic-transfer-switch-model-40450/>. It has all the EMS functions except for load shedding. The reason this ATS is used is it is RVC compatible for remote monitoring allowing better management of shore power and generator power. While it cannot automatically boost voltage 10% like the Hughes, SG 40450 does so much more than a typical EMS plus ATS combination.
