Tesla Successfully Resolves Chinese Trademark Dispute

By Susan Neuberger Weller

Further to our recent Tesla Motors post, Bloomberg and BNA report  that Tesla has resolved its trademark dispute with Zhan Baosheng, the individual who registered the TESLA marks in China. Chinese authorities will cancel the existing TESLA Chinese trademark registrations and all web site names registered by Mr. Zahn in China will be transferred to Tesla.  Needless to say, Tesla appears very pleased with this outcome and has stated that it will continue to move forward with growing its business in China.
