The Brief

Toyota released AQUA, the world’s most fuel-efficient hybrid car. The mission is to overtake Prius, and become the best selling car in Japan. We thought that the best campaign for the world’s most eco-friendly car should also be the world’s most eco-friendly campaign.

Creative Execution

The designated targets were the young generation with almost no interest in cars. Their eco-mind was very high and are willing to participate in (65.1% of ppl) the environment activity. Thanks to the product of the world’s most eco-friendly car, we could have done this project successfully. As a result, AQUA’s core concept has successfully gained empathy, and AQUA became the most selling car: a position which PRIUS dominated for consecutive months previously.

Describe the creative solution to the brief/objective.

“AQUA SOCIAL FES!!” : this platform enables people from all over Japan to participate in activities to preserve the environment. People can apply from any dealership that retails AQUA. Thanks to this system, the dealership which was previously a mere place to retail cars transformed into a hub that brings a more beautiful neighbor.
