What this shows Autoliv's Innovation Score is 39.3/100 (top 39% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Autoliv?

Each dot is one of Autoliv’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Autoliv’s own 13.4 claims/patent is at or below the 15.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Autoliv's grants concentrate

Autoliv Nissin Brake Systems Japan Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 95.6% of grants classified under B60T (Vehicle Brake Control Systems OR Parts THEREOF; Brake Control Systems OR Parts Thereof, IN General ; Arrangement OF Braking Elements ON Vehicles IN GENERAL; Portable Devices FOR Preventing Unwanted MO). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (26 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Autoliv sits between Veveo LLC and Ampere Computing LLC.

Autoliv's three-year grant acceleration

Autoliv Nissin Brake Systems Japan Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
