Ferrari SpA (Ferrari) has lost a trademark dispute against local energy drink brand Sunrise-Mark Sdn Bhd after the High Court ruled that the latter’s “Wee Power” logo was not confusingly similar to Ferrari’s iconic “Prancing Horse” emblem. In a judgment, Judge Adlin Abdul Majid dismissed Ferrari’s challenge to block Sunrise-Mark’s trademark registration, stating that the Italian carmaker’s claims of potential confusion were unfounded.[1]

Ferrari had sought to overturn a decision by the Registrar of Trademarks which dismissed its opposition and allowed Sunrise-Mark’s application for the “Wee Power” trademark, featuring two rearing horses, a large “W”, and the words “Wee Power”. “The plaintiff’s mark is a device mark with one rearing horse while the defendant’s mark contains two rearing horses facing each other,” said Adlin, who found that the marks were visually and conceptually distinct.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
