Nissan is taking its Web3 initiatives to the next level with the recent filing of four new trademarks in the United States

This move is a clear indication of the company's commitment to exploring the potential of blockchain technology and its applications in the automotive industry.

Nissan, a prominent Japanese automotive brand, is making waves in the digital world by embracing Web3 technology and exploring the potential of auto sales in the metaverse. The company recently filed four new Web3-related trademarks in the United States, encompassing its Infiniti, Nismo, and Nissan brands, indicating its commitment to staying ahead of the curve in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

Nissan's plans for the future are exciting and innovative, with the company looking to create a range of virtual products, including clothes, cars, headgear, trading cards, toys, and tickets. In addition, the company plans to launch an NFT marketplace for trading and minting NFTs. To support these new products and services, Nissan is also planning to develop non-downloadable computer software for use as a digital wallet.

In a groundbreaking three-month demonstration experiment of its virtual store, Nissan Hype Lab, Nissan Japan is allowing customers to study, consult, test drive, and even purchase Nissan vehicles in the metaverse. Customers can visit the virtual storefront 24/7 via their PC or smartphone, creating their own customized avatars and interacting with virtual sales staff during certain hours.
