Suzuki campaign says that its cars are double the fun of motorbikes

Suzuki has continued to reinforce its ‘For Fun’s Sake’ platform by comparing the fun motorists can have on motorbikes to ‘double the fun’ available in its range of cars.

The ad shows a man riding a Suzuki car like a motorbike, as the voice over notes four wheels are better than two.

The campaign comes after Suzuki reported a 30% increase in total vehicle sales year-on-year. In 2020, passenger vehicles accounted for 24.2% of cars sold.

Michael Pachota, general manager Suzuki Automobiles, said: “The least fun thing you can do is to repeat yourself, so it’s great that we have a brand platform that really lets us change things up and keep our creative fresh, because the least fun thing you can do is to repeat yourself.”

Deloitte Digital executive creative director, Charles Baylis, added: “When it comes to having fun on the road, we realised the only thing that comes close to a Suzuki, is a motorbike. And even then, it’s only half as fun. Mathematically speaking.”

Recent weeks have seen an influx of automotive campaigns. New work has launched from Nissan, Subaru, ToyotaHyundaiKia, and Ford.

Suzuki’s campaign will be rolling out across out-of-home, social, radio and digital.
