TESLA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “TESLA” is dead and was refused because the application did not meet minimum filing date requirements; the serial number was assigned in error. The owner listed is Tesla, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the mark was filed on an intent‑to‑use basis. The goods covered in the record are specific types of motors—such as asynchronous, synchronous, permanent magnet, boat, and linear motors—as well as lidar apparatus. A similar name would raise the closest concern for uses involving those motor types or lidar equipment, but the record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “TESLA.” No enforcement activity—oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is visible in the supplied history. The latest status event is the refusal on January 11, 2023. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a meaningful concern in the motor and lidar categories, though it does not preclude all other uses.
