Levant Power Corporation

What Levant Power Corporation does

ClearMotion, legally ClearMotion Inc. and formerly Levant Power Corporation, is a Woburn, Massachusetts-based automotive technology company founded in 2009 that develops a fully proactive automotive suspension system. Its product architecture combines on-car CM1 active suspension hardware, which reacts to road inputs in milliseconds, with the RoadMotion in-cloud API platform, which crowdsources CM1 sensor data to build high-definition road-surface maps that feed predictive intelligence back to vehicles. The system is positioned for three modes: Comfort (proactive disturbance cancellation), Safety (upcoming hazard identification), and Performance (driver-connected handling).

The company sells its technology through direct enterprise partnerships with automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers. Named partners include Porsche and NIO as OEMs integrating the suspension into production vehicles, alongside Sona Comstar and Youngshin Automotive as supply-chain partners. Its go-to-market is structured enterprise field sales with a dedicated manufacturer-facing channel on the company website, targeting both luxury/performance and mass-market vehicle programs globally. The business model combines hardware sales (CM1 integrated at the vehicle manufacturing stage) with a recurring cloud intelligence layer (RoadMotion), though no public pricing is disclosed.

The company is small (9 employees), privately held, and operating with no public revenue, funding, or management-team disclosure in the available source material. Its strategic moat rests on proprietary hardware-software integration, the RoadMotion data flywheel, and the high switching costs associated with deep OEM vehicle-platform integration. The largest data gaps are around financial scale, headcount trend, capital structure, and the specific AI/ML methods underlying the RoadMotion predictive layer.

Core offering

ClearMotion develops and sells a fully proactive automotive suspension platform that combines the CM1 on-car active suspension hardware with the RoadMotion cloud-based proactive intelligence API. The system anticipates and reacts to road disturbances in milliseconds to deliver Comfort, Safety, and Performance modes for passenger vehicles. It is sold directly to automotive OEMs and tier-one suppliers for integration into mass-market and luxury vehicles.

Product overview

ClearMotion is a unified automotive motion technology platform consisting of three integrated components: the ClearMotion System (core product) as the overarching fully proactive suspension platform, the CM1 Suspension (hardware) as the on-car lightning-fast actuator and sensor component, and RoadMotion (cloud platform) as the in-cloud API solution that crowdsources CM1 data to generate high-definition surface maps for proactive road assessment. The system works synergistically on-car and in-cloud to deliver proactive ride comfort, handling, safety, and surface insight.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Tenneco (DRiV): Large-volume suspension and ride-control supplier (Monroe, Öhlins) serving mass-market and performance OEMs globally. Competes with ClearMotion on the passive/semi-active baseline against which active systems must justify their premium.
• Continental AG: Major tier-1 with a broad chassis electronics portfolio including semi-active and active suspension control. Offers overlapping capability but as part of a much wider ADAS, brake, and electronics portfolio rather than a dedicated suspension play.
• Mercedes-Benz (Active Body Control): OEM that developed and produces in-house Magic Body Control / E-Active Body Control fully active hydraulic suspension. Represents both a closed alternative ClearMotion must beat for supply and a benchmark for active suspension credibility.
• Audi (active suspension): OEM that has integrated active suspension (adaptive air suspension with predictive functions) across multiple product lines, establishing a competing in-vehicle roadmap that influences supplier selection at premium German OEMs.

Direct peers

• Mando Corporation: Korean chassis and suspension supplier with active damper programs for Hyundai/Kia and other Asian OEMs, directly comparable in technology scope and customer geography.
• ZF Friedrichshafen: Tier-1 automotive supplier offering sMOTION, an active suspension system that competes directly with ClearMotion's CM1 in the same OEM channel. ZF's installed base with European OEMs makes it the most directly comparable competitor.
• BWI Group: Chassis and suspension specialist supplying active and semi-active dampers to global OEMs, including many of the same Asian and North American customers ClearMotion targets via Sona Comstar and Youngshin.

Emerging players

• Multimatic: Niche chassis technology company behind DSSV active dampers used on performance and racing vehicles. Highly comparable technology approach (active, high-response dampers) targeting a similar premium OEM segment.
• Bose Corporation (Bose Ride): Historically developed an active electromagnetic suspension system for automotive applications; while Bose Ride ultimately targeted commercial trucks, it is a relevant analogue for the technical and commercial challenges of bringing active suspension to market.

Others

• Sona Comstar: Disclosed ClearMotion partner and Indian tier-1 driveline/chassis supplier. Functions both as a customer/channel partner and as a benchmark for the kind of tier-1 distribution relationships ClearMotion is trying to build.
