Directed by Joel Kefali at Good Oil.
Toyota Australia is launching its all-electric bZ4X and the all-electric bZ4X Touring in a campaign via HERO.
The multichannel campaign is supported across digital, TV, BVOD, OOH, social and dealerships.
“The new all-electric bZ4X Range brings together everything Australians love about Toyota - quality, durability and reliability - with the fully-electric bZ4X and all-new bZ4X Touring,” said Toyota Australia chief marketing officer, Vin Naidoo.
“In an ever-changing EV landscape, with more and more entrants into the market, an electric vehicle designed to suit every family & lifestyle is more important than ever, especially for life's more unpredictable moments.”
Directed by Joel Kefali at Good Oil, the hero film follows two parents on a cross-country dash to pull an entire children’s party together at the last minute, showing off the reliability, versatility and tech capabilities of the new bZ4X Range in the process.
All set to the poppy Beatles track, It’s Your Birthday, with a recomposition from Rumble Studios.
“Toyota is a beloved Australian brand with a unique tone of voice and sense of humour that we were excited to bring to life, with Good Oil, the Editors and Rumble, for the latest campaign showcasing the bZ4X range,” said HERO national creative director, Andrew Woodhead.
