The verdict
Hyundai holds 169 US patents across 52 technology areas, rank #2,314 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Hyundai Transys Inc. has been granted 169 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Hyundai Transys Inc. at rank #2,314 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 52 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60N (SEATS SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR VEHICLES; VEHICLE PASSENGER ACCOMMODATION NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a Foreign Corporation, Hyundai Transys Inc. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hyundai sits between Danieli & C. Officine Meccaniche S.p.a. (169 patents, rank #2,310) and Promega Corporation (169 patents, rank #2,318) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 69.3/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 169 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign 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. Hyundai Transys Inc.'s 11.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 52 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hyundai Transys Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Hyundai's 169 grants land it in the top 1% 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.
