Toyota has chosen Facebook as the medium through which to launch its new TV ad for the HiLux.

The campaign, created by Saatchi & Saatchi, follows a bromance between a man and his ute.

The campaign will air on national TV from Sunday 18 with a focus within the AFL & NRL football finals. A 90-second version will run online. It will be supported by print and outdoor.

“Ninety per cent of HiLux buyers are men – and they love their HiLux because it often doubles as a rugged, trusty workmate during the week and as family or recreational transport on the weekend,” said Toyota Australia divisional manager national marketing, Scott Thompson.

“The ad demonstrates that HiLux is a reliable friend – and the only thing more unbreakable than the bond between a man and his HiLux is the new HiLux itself,” he added.
