USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 1,008 granted patents across 138 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
Toyoda holds 1,008 US patents across 138 technology areas, rank #451 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. has been granted 1,008 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. at rank #451 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 138 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60R (VEHICLES, VEHICLE FITTINGS, OR VEHICLE PARTS, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a Foreign Corporation, Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Toyoda sits between Commvault Systems, Inc. (1,020 patents, rank #447) and GE Precision Healthcare Llc (994 patents, rank #455) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 59.3/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 444 grants, compared with 564 in the 2015–2019 window, a -21% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.'s 9.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Toyoda's 1,008 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.
