What this record means
The record shows that the mark “TESLA” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 99365351, owned by Tesla, Inc., a corporation organized in Texas. The registration covers goods in class 028, specifically model cars, toy cars, toy vehicles, toy vehicle play sets and accessories, miniature toy models of vehicles, diecast toy vehicle models, and scale‑size collector toy model vehicles, first used in commerce in March 2014. A similar name would raise the closest concern for use on any of those toy or model vehicle products. This record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “TESLA”; it is limited to the listed goods. The prosecution history is empty, indicating no descriptiveness refusal or supplemental register move. The latest status event is the registration date, December 23, 2025, with no maintenance or enforcement actions recorded. For someone considering a similar name, the visible record suggests a meaningful risk if the name is used on toy or model vehicles.
