What makes a good car ad?

Responses to car advertising

Hypotheses for creative development:

Following our extensive research into the automotive market, the NMA investigated 16 branding and 23 pricing ads for cars.

We measured consumer responses across gender; age and income - as well as by newspaper type (Qualities, Mids and Populars).

From the findings we were able to craft five key hypotheses for creative development:

  1. Capture the emotion of buying a car
  2. Create high visual impact
  3. Keep it simple and avoid clutter
  4. Link with TV
  5. Limit the number of cars per ad
