GM Trademarks ‘Earthluxe’ And ‘Inteluxe’ To Name Vehicle Upholstery

General Motors has filed two trademarks that hint at the brands it could use in conjunction with seat materials, GM Authority has uncovered.

The first trademark is for “EARTHLUXE” and the second is for “INTELUXE.” Both were filed on August 26th, 2020 with the United States Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO). The goods and services categories for both applications are as follows:

  • Earthluxe: upholstery for vehicles; seat covers for vehicles; vehicle seats
  • Inteluxe: upholstery for vehicles; seat covers; vehicle seats
Filing Date Office Goods & Services Application Number
Earthluxe August 26, 2020 USPTO Upholstery for vehicles; seat covers for vehicles; vehicle seats 90139712
Inteluxe August 26, 2020 USPTO Upholstery for vehicles; seat covers; vehicle seats 90139760

As of this writing, General Motors has not announced plans to use these names. However, we have reason to believe that the Detroit-based automaker will use the Earthluxe and Inteluxe names to brand its seat material offerings for upcoming electric vehicles, such as the upcoming Cadillac Lyriq.

In other trademark news, GM recently filed to register “E-Ray” for its upcoming hybrid-electric Corvette C8 variant, a logo for its upcoming GMC Hummer EV models, as well as “E-Troit“, likely as a name for the Detroit-Hamtramck plant that’s slated exclusively produce EVs.

    I think this may be for the European market. Many there prefer it to leather.

  5. So naming vehicles after Washers, Driers and Vacuums is the future of automotive badging?

  6. I think I know exactly what these are for.

    This isn’t going into the Lyriq. Anything less than real leather would be laughable in a Cadillac, especially in light of competition. EV’s used to be solely for environmentally-minded people. Not anymore.

    These are both for the Hummer EV twins.

    If you remember, GM said (and this was barely covered) that the Hummer’s interior would be made only of 100% recyclable materials. But no one is going to pay $70k for a vehicle with cloth seats. These materials are going to be some kind of synthetic leather. It especially makes sense when you remember that the Hummer’s interior is going to have a “lunar” theme, with topographical maps of the Sea of Tranquility in the speaker covers and floor mats. Hence, “Interluxe” leather…and “Earthluxe” is likely a play on lesser trims, designed for the best off-road durability.

    I’d bet hard on this.

  9. I knew I had to get myself a set. Indeed, it has become a difficult but thrilling task to have their own brand name of poker chips. There are tons of women that perform at various levels.
