DENSO Takes Center Stage at Japan Mobility Show 2025
Leading automotive technology company DENSO Corporation is set to showcase a bold vision for the future of mobility at the Japan Mobility Show 2025, held at Tokyo Big Sight from October 30 to November 9. Under the theme “Changing the Shape of the Future with Technology: Community Meets Mobility,” DENSO will demonstrate how software-defined vehicles (SDVs) and integrated mobility solutions can transform how people move, connect, and live in cities.
Software-Defined Vehicles: A New Era of Auto Innovation
A centerpiece of DENSO’s exhibit is the four-seater simulation vehicle, designed to illustrate mobility that is “attuned to people.” Visitors can experience how families and friends share journeys powered by SDVs that continually evolve through software updates. The SDV platform will be demonstrated via interactive presentations synchronized with video content, highlighting the ongoing transformation of vehicle functions through consolidated electronic control units (ECUs) and advanced mobility computers.
Industry observers can expect engineers responsible for SDV development to engage visitors directly, explaining the technical details behind these platforms. This hands-on dialogue offers a rare look at how software-centric architectures enable features such as over-the-air updates, personalized user experiences, and smarter integration with city infrastructure. The goal is to show how SDVs aren’t just smarter cars; they’re evolving mobility hubs that adapt to user needs in real time.
Energy-Efficient and Environmentally Conscious Mobility
Environmental responsibility is a core pillar of DENSO’s Japan Mobility Show presence. The exhibit highlights technologies aimed at reducing the environmental footprint of vehicles and enhancing the synergy between cars and social infrastructure for smarter energy use across society. Visitors will learn about energy-management strategies that help lower emissions and energy waste while supporting broader climate goals.
Key features include an immersive theater experience that combines video, effects, and live demonstrations to illustrate DENSO’s energy-management initiatives. Attendees will also be introduced to electrification technologies such as a new flat dual-sided cooling inverter and methods for optimizing thermal management and waste heat recovery. These innovations demonstrate how electrification and thermal systems work in concert to improve overall vehicle efficiency.
<h2< Infrastructures for a Sustainable Energy Future
Beyond the vehicle itself, DENSO is showcasing initiatives that link mobility with the broader energy ecosystem. The company’s EVECOM charging-control system, battery circulation concepts, and the Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (SOEC) device are presented as parts of a holistic approach to energy and resource management. The SOEC technology demonstrates how high-temperature electrolysis can efficiently produce hydrogen, contributing to cleaner energy networks alongside future mobility services.
Real-World Implications for City Living
“Changing the Shape of the Future with Technology” isn’t just about vehicles; it’s about how people interact with cities. DENSO’s vision places mobility as a connector—linking vehicles with urban infrastructure, energy systems, and community activities. The exhibit also touches on semiconductor wafer manufacturing and high-performance components that support the increasingly capable electronics driving SDVs and other future mobility solutions.
What to Expect at the Booth
In addition to the four-seater simulator and immersive theater, the booth will feature videos and live product demonstrations. Visitors will gain insights into integrated mobility computers and the consolidation of ECUs that control a range of vehicle functions. The program invites attendees to engage with SDV experts to discuss the technologies propelling the next era of transportation.
