Here’s what Pioneer have to say about the new R&D center in Bengaluru:

Pioneer India, a subsidiary of Pioneer Corporation, a global leader in automotive electronics and mobility solutions, inaugurated its new Research & Development (R&D) Center in Bengaluru, India.

This milestone follows the company’s 2023 announcement to establish an R&D presence in Bengaluru (https://global.pioneer/en/corp/news/press/index/2786/). The new facility reinforces Pioneer’s strategic vision to expand its innovation capabilities and strengthen its global product development footprint.

The Bengaluru R&D center is designed to drive innovation across a comprehensive range of automotive and mobility technologies addressing the growing demand for smart, safe, and affordable mobility across developing and urban markets. The center will work closely with Pioneer's global network of R&D and engineering centers, focusing on the following areas:

• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
• Digital Cockpit & Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI)
• Cloud-Connected Infotainment & Telematics
• AI & Mobility Data Platforms
• Connected Solutions for Two-Wheelers (navigation displays, safety alerts, mobile integration, SOS features)

The center will serve OEM, aftermarket, and B2B segments—including fleet operators and insurance providers—while also addressing the specific needs of Indian automotive manufacturers through faster development cycles and region-specific solutions.

 

The launch of our Bengaluru R&D center represents a critical step in our global growth strategy,” said Shiro Yahara, President and CEO, Pioneer Corporation. “India’s deep talent pool and dynamic mobility ecosystem make it an ideal base to drive innovation across vision, connectivity, and intelligent systems for vehicles of all kinds.
