Let's Hum: New Prius Commercial Will Leave You Singing

I do like the new commercial. And you are right, I did watch it 2X. I could watch it again and again though.

 

catchy song

 

Good solid commercial. Will it make non-Prius drivers consider a Prius though?

 

Very entertaining and enjoyable to watch, for a change.

 

I like it too but sounds like she is singing: "Dis the car...
I wish she would ennunciate more clearly, or maybe I am just too paranoid.

I especially like the star of the show (white Prius).

 

It didn't do much for me, but it is far far better than those other prius commercials.

 

Saw the commercial last night, tried to look at it from a new car buyers outlook. From that point of view it didn't do it for me. Message wise it works. But way too cute for my tastes...

 

Yes it's cute and catchy but I think it will mainly appeal to those who all ready have positive opinions of Pri and/or hybrids in general and "roll the eyes" of those who don't (bubba gumps, gear heads, truck/suv lovers, etc).

 

Just came back from Iceland where a gallon of gas is like $8.10 a gallon. And saw tons of small cars to meet the demand. Sadly we won't see a bigger change in buying habits till gas reaches that level here in the US.

 

It is an animation. It makes sense to people who want a green car but not to the general public. If you have seen the Cadillac commercial, you know what I mean.

 

How many hybrids did you see?

 

Most people don't have any clue that there are 4 distinct models of Prius.

This commercial does a very good job of raising awareness.

 

I like it.

 

You're right, this is the first one in recent memory I don't hate.

 

hopefully, there are a ton of 3 year old prospective buyers out there.

 

It's a decent commercial. As far as changing people's minds, to be honest, I don't think very many car commercials do that at all. Hopefully they remind you of a car model when you're thinking about a new car so you put it in your short list to check out, but you certainly can't be expected to buy a car from only a commercial. At least, I hope people are smarter than that.

 

I watched it only once, and didn't hate the commercial, like I have hated most all that came before. A nice change. In keeping with Danny's wishes, I will watch it one more time, but later.

EDIT: Just saw the thing on TV in HD, so that fulfills the second watch. I'm not humming it though. I just hope I don't wake up with that tune playing through my head.

 

Yaris Hybrid is now the best selling car in Iceland. Is that what you wanted to hear or?
