Tesla filed two new trademark applications within 37 seconds of each other last night, moments after Elon Musk used the terms on the company’s Q4 2025 earnings call. It follows Tesla having issues securing the ‘Cybercab’ trademark because of its own tardiness again. The filingsAccording to USPTO records obtained by Electrek, Tesla filed for two new trademarks on January 28, 2026:Mark Serial Number Filing Time (ET) CYBERCAR 99620747 7:32:54 PM CYBERVEHICLE 99620749 7:33:31 PMThat’s 37 seconds apart. Learned the hard wayThis appears to be Tesla’s response to the embarrassing “Cybercab” trademark situation we reported on earlier this month. Instead of filing trademarks before Musk announces things publicly (the obvious solution), Tesla appears to have rushed lawyers to file applications after Musk said it on a public call.
