Tesla Files for Restaurant Trademark
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is looking to enter the restaurant business, according to a new trademark application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
According to the May 27 filing, the electric vehicle manufacturer is looking to introduce restaurant services, pop-up restaurant services, self-service restaurant services and takeout restaurant services. The USPTO notes that the application is “awaiting examination” and will be reviewed by an attorney approximately three months after the filing date, or Aug. 27.
The application features a drawing of Tesla’s iconic “T” logo, which would be trademarked for use by the restaurants. Electrek, the first to report the story, notes that the company has also recently applied for trademarks for the word and company stylizing of Tesla. Musk has been teasing the plans since 2018, when he tweeted “gonna put an old school drive-in ... at one of the new Tesla Supercharger locations in LA near the 405.” -Source: Fox Business
