Nissan Altima Presents Ride of Your Life #NissanROYL
A new Nissan marketing campaign titled “Ride of Your Life” highlights the 2014 Nissan Altima. The campaign was created to drive traffic to ChooseNissan.com.
In a TV spot slated to launch next week, Nissan intends to deliver a message that Altima is an exciting sedan on the road.
Led by director Brent Jones of Humble, production designer Page Buckner (Transformers, Spiderman, Iron Man 2) and event managers from Match Action, participants (real people, not paid actors) were selected to receive rides around the Horse Thief Mile at Willow Springs Raceway in what was marketed as “Nissan’s most advanced Altima racecar.”
“The ‘Ride of Your Life’ campaign shows off the performance DNA that lives inside every Nissan and will help engage consumers nationwide, creating positive, lively conversation online and in person as we enter upon our year-end sales event,” said Jon Brancheau, vice president, marketing communications and media, Nissan North America, Inc.
To ignite conversation, one of the “racecar” Altimas will be driven around Los Angeles prior to the ad’s launch. Signage on the vehicle will invite people to find out what’s going on via the hashtag #NissanROYL.
Once the hashtag is posted via Twitter or other social media outlets, people will be encouraged to view the promotional video footage derived from the TV spot, thus continuing the conversation.
In addition to daily Twitter interaction on the Altima Twitter pages, Nissan will invite customers to share creative expressions via Snapchat of what driving a Nissan feels like to them.
The best Snapchat responses will then be entered for the opportunity to win prizes such as a PlayStation 4.
