SUMMARY
In 2010, with the existing car lineup about to become old news and no new introductions planned, Audi of America needed a campaign that would reignite momentum and sustain record sales growth. Understanding that luxury car shoppers biases resulted in blind commitment to better-known brands, we used bold and provocative claims designed to question consumers ingrained perceptions of the luxury world order. As a result, more people are showing up at dealerships and shopping online, and retail sales are up 15% year-to-date.
