USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 301 granted patents across 63 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: B60R (VEHICLES, VEHICLE FITTINGS, OR VEHICLE PARTS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR).
The verdict
Autoliv holds 301 US patents across 63 technology areas, rank #1,399 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Autoliv ASP, Inc. has been granted 301 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Autoliv ASP, Inc. at rank #1,399 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 63 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60R (VEHICLES, VEHICLE FITTINGS, OR VEHICLE PARTS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a US Corporation, Autoliv ASP, Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Autoliv sits between Neoperl Gmbh (302 patents, rank #1,395) and Amphenol Corporation (300 patents, rank #1,403) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 62.8/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 132 grants, compared with 169 in the 2015–2019 window, a -22% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Autoliv ASP, Inc.'s 18.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 63 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Autoliv ASP, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Autoliv's 301 grants land it in the top 2% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
