Just when DS 3 CROSSBACK will arrive in the DS exclusive network, DS Auto-mobiles will launch an international advertising campaign with Publicis La Maison x Marcel staging this new icon of high-tech style.
Pushing back the limits, DS 3 CROSS-BACK is a vehicle of distinctive styling and exceptional proportions, available in its 100% electric version E-TENSE, featu-ring exclusive technologies and unique refinement. DS 3 CROSSBACK is both a city car and a long-distance road car for all those looking for a car with instant appeal that is stylish, dynamic and elegant.
With this car, DS Automobiles is not only conquering a new segment, but letting the world know that it is here to stay and will continue to represent French luxury savoir-faire and high technology in the auto-motive industry.
‘’DS 3 CROSSBACK is definitively an iconoclast vehicle, breaking the codes in the category with its sculptural design and hi-tech equipment. That’s why we wanted a campaign that would reflect the car’s bold spirit. By reinventing the Mona-Lisa, affirming our convictions or inviting viewers not to be followers, we take a stand and send a strong message about what we believe ‘’ - Ar-naud Ribault, Brand Director.
To launch this new icon of high-tech style, the brand needed to push the boundaries, defy and reinvent the traditional codes. Hence, DS Automobiles created a campaign as unique and avant-garde as this car in order to express its iconoclast spirit.
The series of short format films defy the much-expected long format film. The brand opted ins-tead for short impactful ‘tableaux’ to reflect what it takes to push the limits, to stand up for your beliefs, to follow your convictions. Just like DS 3 CROSSBACK defying style with its bold lines and pushing innovation with its hi-tech package onboard. The films will inspire & inform, elevate & illustrate, with strong imagery reinventing the codes we know & celebrating the car features.
DS Automobiles reached out to Daisy Zhou (Boogie Nights Production) , named of one Adweek’s top 15 talented directors raising the standard for storytelling, to reinvent the codes of the auto-mobiles advertising. Her signature camera moves and her experience with music videos and do-cumentaries provide a fresh new take on how to bring out the spirit of the car. The music also em-braces with elegance the iconoclast character of the car, with its modern electro sound mixed to a celebratory organic trumpet, announcing the birth of a new icon.
The campaign is coming out in Italy, Spain, UK, Germany, Luxembourg, Portugal, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, Turkey, Czech Republic, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, Croatia from May 12th, to discover here : https://youtu.be/CKkf9EmMjSY
