Tesla and the Mexican tequila industry are at odds over Tesla co-founder Elon Musk’s efforts to trademark an alcoholic beverage as “Teslaquila.” On Oct. 12, he tweeted
“Teslaquila coming soon” and an accompanying “visual approximation” of a red and white label with the Tesla logo and a caption that said “100 percent Puro de

(and) Tequila is a protected word.”
