Volvo has been busy filing trademark applications in Europe. Swedespeed reports that Volvo has applications filed for P5, P6, P8, P9, and P10 with European Union Intellectual Property Office. The applications say the names would be used for “vehicles and conveyances; Electric vehicles.” This leads Sweedspeed to speculate the names could be used on Volvo's current models to designate an electric version - S90 P6 for example. Last year, Volvo CEO Håkan Samuelsson said they plan on launching their first electric vehicle by 2019. Meanwhile, in the U.S., Volvo has filled out trademark applications V20 and V30. There isn't much information with these applications, saying they could be used on motor vehicles or other items such as steering wheels. Swedespeed thinks these names could be for small vehicles.

AutoGuide recently found two new trademark applications from General Motors. The applications were filed on December 16th and are for the 'Tourx' and 'Regal Tourx' trademarks. The applications say the trademarks are for “Motor land vehicles, namely automobiles.” AutoGuide speculates the Tourx name could be for a wagon variant of the next-generation Buick Regal. GM is currently hard at work on the next-generation Opel/Vauxhall Insignia - the model that the Regal is based on - and is expected to come in a five-door and wagon versions. We believe AutoGuide is on the right track with the wagon, but we're going to take it in a different direction. A couple years back, Opel and Vauxhall introduced the Insignia Country Tourer. Starting with a standard Insignia wagon, Opel and Vauxhall added a new all-wheel drive system, body cladding, and increased ground clearance. At the time the Country Tourer was announced, we said that GM could make a business case for it as a competitor to the Subaru Outback. If there is a next-generation Country Tourer, we wouldn't be shocked if came over as a Buick. But automakers trademark a number of names and symbols, only to be never used. This could be the case here. It will be interesting to see if GM uses this name for the next-generation Regal. Source: AutoGuide View full article -
