There’s a Canadian company called Bombardier. They make airplanes and jet skis amongst other stuff.
Who were also subject to legal action by JLR for using the Defender name for a product. JLR lost that case as well.

If Ineos were to register names from all the military services, the Ineos Commander sounds pretty good.
On the other hand. Ineos 'Able Seaman' wouldn't have quite the same ring.

Not sure if it existed elsewhere, but here in the States there was a Jeep Commander. Probably 10+ years ago now, but it was an attempt to enter the over-size 3-row SUV game. I don’t think it did too well.

Sounds like a furphy to me...
Grrrrr
The fact names and words used for hundreds of years as common dictionary reference can be "trademarked" is a bloody joke. What next, they TM the word 4X4 or Beer or Car...

I started to write that yesterday but wasn’t sure than whether I mixed it up with the Jeep Compass and deleted everything before posting.
Now I know I wasn’t wrong 👍

I've always understood, for the UK at least, that trademarks are only granted for specific product groups. So it's possible for the same trademark to be held by multiple persons each for a different product type.

As an example, whilst it's widely report that JLR lost their trademark case with Ineos, they were actually granted the trademarks in relation to:

Class 9 which includes Computer mouses; Web cameras (Webcams); Discs for storage of digital media; Mobile phone headsets and accessories; Mobile phone covers; Mobile phone cases; Mouse mats; Home theater systems; Televisions; Calculators; Projectors; Contact lenses; spectacles.

Class 14: Statues and statuettes of precious metals.

Class 28: Balloons; Sporting articles; Christmas decorations.

But can you remember the Vauxhall Cavalier Commnder ??

I lusted after one of them when I was younger. It had some Gucci looking wheels on it (for the time).

That is the system it should work worldwide

I believe it was - but maybe a stretched platform? It was unibody and, more than anything, ugly IMO.
