The verdict
Magna holds 95 US patents across 48 technology areas, rank #3,817 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Magna Powertrain Gmbh & Co KG has been granted 95 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Magna Powertrain Gmbh & Co KG at rank #3,817 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 48 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16H (GEARING). As a Foreign Corporation, Magna Powertrain Gmbh & Co KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Magna sits between Keyssa, Inc. (95 patents, rank #3,813) and Pioneer Surgical Technology, Inc. (95 patents, rank #3,821) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 59.2/100 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 57 grants, compared with 38 in the 2015–2019 window, a +50% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Magna Powertrain Gmbh & Co KG's 14.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 48 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Magna Powertrain Gmbh & Co KG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Magna's 95 grants land it in the top 4% 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.
