The&Partnership and Toyota “The Priorities : Buy now, pay in 2021”

The&Partnership and Toyota unveil the latest Yaris campaign named “Priorities”, a spot shot with phones and entirely made remotely in lockdown from creation to shooting and post-production, also as the shooting which has been digital only.

As a car manufacturer, Toyota wanted to stay away from a typical promotional offer and imply the end of lockdown in a light manner by talking about people being free to move again.

Ludovic Billiet, Marketing Director at Toyota France: “With this campaign, we wanted to offer the right answer to our prospects who are looking for mobility first and foremost and also help with the recovery effort. “

In a succession of scenes, people are sharing with us what will be the first thing they do when out of this lockdown, who they are going to meet up with, where they are going to go, what they’ve missed the most these last two months.

“It’s very brave for car manufacturer to accept the fact that buying a car is not the priority for most people!” says Arnaud Labille, Creative Director at The&Partnership.

The brand was able to tailor an offer allowing people to get their car but without the burden of paying for it straight away: Drive it now and pay in 2021. The Yaris, a compact city car produced in France was picked to launch this special offer.

The campaign will be on TV, print, radio with some social content as well
