Portfolio overview
Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. has been granted 205 US utility patents between 2024 and 2025, placing Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. at rank #1,963 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 79 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60R (VEHICLES, VEHICLE FITTINGS, OR VEHICLE PARTS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a Foreign Corporation, Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 72.0/100 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 2024 through 2025, with 205 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. Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd.'s 14.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 79 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Panasonic Automotive Systems Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
