New Business
Leveraging the strengths we have built through the development of drivetrain components, together with external expertise acquired through M&A and other initiatives,
we are developing new products to address decarbonization, changing lifestyles, and other evolving needs.
Mobility Sector
Small e-Mobility (Drive Unit for 2-wheel / 3-wheel BEV)
We will steadily advance the development of our electric drive business in India.
This three-in-one system combines EXEDY's power transmission te chnology with a motor and inverter for the increasingly electrified motorcycle and three-wheeler market. The power transmission and interruption functions, together with the torque amplification function, allow motor output to be reduced while meeting user needs for drivability and ride comfort, enabling compact, lightweight, and low-cost products.
Commercial e-Mobility
(Electrification solutions for commercial vehicles)
Making self-generating EVs a reality, faster and more practical.
Leveraging the technology cultivated in the development of automotive powertrain products, we are working on developing electrification solutions for commercial vehicles.
By retrofitting existing vehicles with a series hybrid system (SHEV) designed for commercial vehicles, we aim to reduce 2emissions and fuel consumption, while also enabling the effective use of existing vehicles and achieving electrification in areas where battery electric vehicles (BEVs) alone are difficult to address. Because it can utilize not only dedicated charging infrastructure but also existing fuel supply infrastructure, it contributes to securing the driving range and uptime required for commercial mobility.

In-wheel Motor
By integrating with electrical and control technologies, we provide next-generation drive systems.
In March 2026, we acquired Protean Electric, a UK-based company that develops, manufactures, and sells in-wheel motors. By combining Protean's advanced electrical and control technologies with our long-cultivated expertise and quality in drivetrain components, as well as our customer base and global network, we will accelerate the development of highly efficient, high-value-added products. Our products have already been selected for use in vehicles by a European automaker, and we will continue to expand their adoption across other vehicle models and manufacturers.
Drone Sector
Drone
We aim to establish ourselves as a "Total Drone Solution Provider."
In the rapidly growing drone market, we aim to establish ourselves as a "total drone solution provider," offering end-to-end services including planning, design, manufacturing, sales, maintenance, and related services for drones. This is achieved by applying our core technology of fluid analysis to develop the shape of our propellers, and by developing aircraft in collaboration with our group companies.

Plant Solutions Sector
Smart Robot
We deliver reliable and safe Japanese-made robots that support society and stay close to people.
Anticipating that robots will become increasingly integrated into everyday life due to the declining workforce and growing elderly population, we are applying the technologies we have cultivated through the development of dedicated production line equipment and IoT-based production monitoring systems to develop powerful transport robots and multi-purpose robots for customer service and guidance. Going forward, we aim to support people's lives in areas such as logistics, commercial facilities, and public institutions.
General Purpose Electric Drive Unit (Electric Assist Uunit)
We will continue to deliver value that enables everyone to transport goods safely and with confidence.
Developed by leveraging electrification technologies in addition to EXEDY's proven drivetrain technologies, this highly versatile electric drive unit is designed to reduce operator workload and enhance safety and peace of mind in material handling operations.It can be retrofitted to low-speed mobility equipment such as pallet trucks and cage carts, providing power assistance for the transportation of heavy loads.
