OnePlus, Oppo, Poco, Realme, and Vivo are said to have applly for trademarks for electric vehicles (EVs) in India. Screenshots of the trademark applications, share by a tipster, show that some applications have been approve while some may have been oppose or object to.
But it is being speculate that the companies will be trying to apply for the trademarks again.
The trademarks don’t indicate the category of electric vehicles that BBK Electronics subsidiaries are working on developing.
The trademark applications filed by BBK Electronics subsidiaries OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, Vivo, and by Poco.
The trademark applications are for electric vehicles that these companies to be developing.
Most of these trademarks have either been oppose or object against but only Realme’s trademark has been register.
These trademarks pertain to driverless cars (autonomous cars), boats, self-balancing scooters and boards, remote control vehicles, trolleys, tyres, civilian drones, and anti-theft devices.
The trademarks by these companies were file earlier this year and do also date back to 2018.
They have been file under Class 12.
Companies, while applying for trademarks does indicate interest in the space, it remains uncertain whether a launch is indeed on the cards.
Since there has been no confirmation from the brands on the development of EVs.
OnePlus has filed the trademark for the words OnePlus Life.
This does not give any insight on the product or products that it is planning to launch in the eclectic vehicles segment.
The trademark filed by Realme are for the words Realme TechLife and TL device.
This development comes at a time when Chinese manufacturers are amping up their research and development into the EV industry.
