The Japanese automaker, Nissan, is the latest to ramp up its Web3 efforts, filing four new Web3-related trademarks in the United States, while its Japan unit is experimenting with auto sales in the metaverse.
According to Nissan’s March 7 trademark applications to the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the new filings cover its Infiniti, Nismo, and Nissan brands.
Nissan aims to produce virtual apparel, automobiles, headgear, trade cards, toys, tickets, and a nonfungible token (NFT) marketplace for trading and minting NFTs, according to USPTO filings.
The corporation has also laid out plans for metaverse advertising services and other “entertainment services” such as online video, photos, artwork, tickets, audio, sounds, music, and trading cards, as well as a website with details on Nissan’s proposed NFTs and how they will work.
According to the petition, there are also plans for “non-downloadable computer software for use as a digital wallet.”

Customers can order the car and finalise purchase contracts through this virtual sales office, according to the statement. In addition, Nissan submitted five trademark applications in October 2022 for some of its most well-known vehicle models, including the Skyline, Z, and GTR.
