2016 Honda Pilot Featured In New Advertisement

Anyone who tuned in for the Big Game this past weekend not only got to see an incredible game but a variety of highly entertaining star-studded commercials. Honda was one of the many companies that created a special Super Bowl spot which features a variety of famous faces and focused on the brand’s “Power of Dreams” slogan. The 2017 Honda CR-V was the featured vehicle as the spot focused on how the brand’s Power of Dreams led to the creation of a model that is now celebrating 20 years in production. The overall message was that you should never be afraid to dream big because all dreams are possible as long as you put in the time and effort to make them a reality. The brand took a unique approach to their message by featuring a variety of celebrities including Amy Adams, Steve Carell, Viola Davis, Missy Elliott, Tina Fey, Earvin "Magic" Johnson, Jimmy Kimmel, Stan Lee and Robert Redford as they shared how they followed their dreams from humble beginnings to where they are now. The unique element was that each celebrity was speaking as their younger selves from the pages of their high school yearbook. "Since its introduction in 1997, CR-V has set the standard for efficiency, practicality and driving fun, becoming a customer favorite and taking the title as America's best-selling SUV over the past two decades," said Susie Rossick, assistant vice president, Honda Auto Marketing. "To celebrate the all-new, fifth-generation CR-V, we wanted to share inspiring stories that bring to life what we mean when we talk about The Power of Dreams."

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and if you’ve been on the road recently you’ve probably seen more than a few people using their cell phones while driving. Even with laws put in place, it continues to be a persistent issue in this country and a result of many preventable accidents. In order to raise awareness for the dangers of distracted driving, Honda has created a new ad campaign to highlight how easy it is to make a mistake while texting and performing a different activity. Multiple studies have shown that almost everyone (98% to be exact) cannot multitask. In fact, the more confident you are in your ability to multitask, the more mistakes you’ll end up making. Through a series of videos, they show people attempting to multitask by performing everyday activities while texting. These include Texting and Vacuuming, Texting and Cutting Hair, Texting and Pet Sitting, Texting and Gardening, Texting and Making Pancakes, and Texting and Working Out. Not surprisingly, most of these attempts end in disaster. While the campaign is lighthearted, it brings light to how dangerous it is to use your phone while doing something as complicated and dangerous as driving. Watch the videos below and spread the word about Honda’s new campaign using the hashtag, #PhoneDownEyesUp!
