Product
Lear designs and manufactures fully integrated seating systems for global automakers, focusing on comfort, safety, and craftsmanship and supplying ~40% of the top 10 OEMs as of 2025.
Systems include massage, heating, and cooling tech; optional electronic modules add ~8–12% ASP (average selling price) versus standard seats.
By end-2025 Lear scaled sustainable materials and modular designs to cover 60% of new programs, cutting seat system CO2e by ~25% per unit.
The E-Systems Electrical Architectures segment supplies wire harnesses, terminals and distribution systems that form the vehicle electrical backbone, handling low-voltage power and signal routing plus high-voltage for EVs. These components support ADAS and domain controllers, and in 2025 Lear reported E-Systems revenue of about $5.2 billion, ~28% of company sales. Lear is scaling high-voltage wiring for EV platforms, targeting 15–20% CAGR in EV-related content through 2028.
Lear’s Thermal Management Solutions, led by ClimateSense localized heating and cooling, deliver per-occupant comfort while cutting HVAC energy use by up to 30%, a key factor in extending EV range by 5–10% in third-party tests. By 2025, these technologies drove a 12% premium on Lear’s seating ASP (average selling price) within its premium portfolio and supported a 7% segment revenue growth versus 2023. Fleet trials with two OEMs reduced HVAC-related battery drain from 14% to about 9% per drive cycle. These features strengthen Lear’s differentiation in luxury and EV markets.
Connectivity and Software
Lear’s connectivity modules and software enable secure vehicle communication and over-the-air (OTA) updates, supporting integration of ADAS and autonomy; in 2024 Lear reported $1.2B in electrical and electronic systems revenue, with connected services growth of 14% year-over-year.
Focus on cybersecurity and data integrity aligns with ISO/SAE 21434 and UNECE WP.29 rules, reducing breach risk and helping OEMs meet safety compliance for fleets.
- OTA updates: reduces recall costs; Lear cites faster patches in 60% of deployed units
- 2024 E/E revenue: $1.2B; connected services +14% YoY
- Standards: ISO/SAE 21434, UNECE WP.29 compliance
- Use case: enables ADAS/autonomy integration across global OEMs
