Cultural / Context information for the jury

In 2020, Covid shut down air travel entirely for Chinese residents. While it was a disaster for airlines, it was an opportunity for Mercedes… As luxury Chinese travellers still wanted to see the world in style, so they traded business-class for G-Class… Mercedes’ ultimate luxury 4x4. We brought this to life by promoting travel within China, showing some of China’s most iconic – and highest – landmarks as though seen from the window of an car – mimicking typical travel photos from planes. This showed how the peerless off-road abilities and luxury feeling of the G-Class can still elevate travellers, even in 2020. Locations: Nuerjia Canyon, Xinjiang - 4265ft Ganzi District, Sichuan - 14271ft Yangshuo Mountain, Guilin - 3051ft Nanxiong District, Guangdong - 3346ft
