TESLA

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “TESLA” is dead, having been abandoned because the applicant did not respond to an Office action. The owner listed is Tesla, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and the mark was filed on June 26 2023 under a foreign registration basis. The only goods listed are beer, class 032, so the closest concern would be for a beer or similar beverage. The record does not give the mark any control over other uses of the word “TESLA.” The prosecution history shows a standard sequence of a non‑final action followed by abandonment, with no indication that the mark was ever placed on the Supplemental Register. The latest meaningful event is the abandonment notice on May 16 2024. No enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status and narrow goods scope suggest a lower risk, but the name is still protected for beer and related beverages.
