WirelessCar welcomes Satoru Abe as the new Country Manager for Japan to amplify and strengthen the presence of the company across the country. Abe will be based in Tokyo to lead local operations.
With over 35 years of experience in automotive and high-tech industries, Abe brings strong credentials from senior roles at MathWorks Japan, AVL, Motorola, ContinentalAutomotive, Cobra Automotive, and Honda R&D.
In his new role, he will focus on expanding partnerships with Japanese OEMs and accelerating innovation in the areas of Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs), electric mobility (EV solutions), and broader connected vehicle ecosystems. With Abe’s leadership, the company aims to act as a trusted partner for Japan’s automotive transformation, bridging the gap between local industry needs and WirelessCar’s global capabilities.
Satoru Abe said, “My mindset is very partnership-oriented, because long-term collaboration is critical to success. It comes down to being able to see and understand things from your business partner’s perspective. Not only because you are knowledgeable and engaged, but because you know them well and have earned their trust. That kind of trust sustains long-term business relationships. It is an experience and philosophy that I bring to my role at WirelessCar, a company that already operates in this tradition.”
