EQT exits Japan’s Pioneer in $1.1bn CarUX deal after tech turnaround

The sale of the 86-year-old in-car systems maker marks a rare high-profile cross-border deal in Japan’s auto tech sector, positioning CarUX to expand its connected cockpit offering globally.

Taiwan’s CarUX is to acquire Japan’s Pioneer Corporation in a $1.1 billion deal expected to close in Q4 2025, as competition for dominance in the global smart-cockpit market intensifies.
