Large corporate tycoons tend to adhere to the use of television as the ideal form of communication. Psychologically, bright colors, motion, and sounds help to catch your attention and keep you alert on the product. Whether positive or negative, the commercial most likely has an impact on your view of the product. Marketing in commercials always targets a specific audience to purchase that service or product. Automobile advertisements have had some of the most creative and unique cinematic graphics. In one of the first ever hybrid vehicle commercials in 2004, the Toyota Prius, is presented as a feat of technology here to save the environment using facts and an intuitive commercial along with the background of a city.

    Toyota’s largest target market would be educated working adults in developed urbanised countries especially in the West where there is a subculture of environmental concerns and issues which are relatively more active compared with the rest of the world. Thus the educated working class in these countries would be attracted to the Prius’ energy and fuel savings, and automatic battery recharging which would not only be a lot more environmentally friendly, but would ensure a more smoothly-powered ride to work in a congested city morning. Furthermore, the affordability of the Prius as compared to other Toyota vehicles coupled with even greater cost savings on fuel – cuts fuel consumption by 40% - is an added incentive for these environmentally conscious consumers as they might worry that specially designed green technology might be expensive…

To increase the demand for this, Nissan should hold test-drive events throughout various cities to promote the Leaf. Though it will spread through North America, we plan to focus on Vancouver and Toronto as they are the greenest in Canada, and as well as New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago in the United States because they are expected to be the earliest electric vehicle adopters (Byrne, 2011).…
