`Licensing Paice Hybrid Technology: A History of Success
`
`Since 1992, Paice has focused exclusively on enabling automakers to design and develop cost-effective hybrid electric vehicles that deliver
`superior fuel economy and performance. It has licensed its hybrid vehicle technology portfolio to many of the world’s most significant
`automakers – Toyota, Ford, Hyundai/Kia, Honda, GM and others – who collectively account for more than 80% of all hybrid vehicle sales
`in the United States.
`
`Dr. Alex Severinsky and the Paice team have secured 30 hybrid vehicle patents worldwide, several of which are recognized as among the
`most important in the hybrid vehicle industry.
`
`Over the years, Paice has worked with leading automakers and automotive suppliers around the world to design hybrid vehicles based on
`Paice’s patented technology. Many of the most popular hybrid vehicles being produced around the globe today use Paice technology.
`
`Paice’s licensing agreements include:
`
`Toyota
`
`In 2005, a federal jury found that Toyota infringed resulting in an award to Paice of $98 per car. Paice later filed a patent infringement
`complaint with the International Trade Commission, leading to a licensing agreement between the companies in 2010. Read the press
`release.
`
`Ford
`
`Following years of litigation, Ford signed a global license for Paice’s entire hybrid technology portfolio in 2018. The automaker had
`previously licensed a subset of the Paice’s technology in 2010. Read the press release.
`
`Hyundai and Kia
`
`Another federal jury found that Hyundai and Kia infringed Paice’s patents and ordered the car companies to pay Paice $28.9 million –
`roughly $200 per car in damages – in 2015. The companies later reached a confidential settlement that granted Hyundai and Kia full use
`of Paice’s patented hybrid vehicle technology. Read the press release.
`
`Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche
`
`Paice brought another patent infringement action against VW, Audi, and Porsche in 2016. The companies reached a global agreement
`later that year. Read the press release.
