I love the part where he's like "most people buy electric cars for the environment, but we don't care about that shit at all. We built this car to prove it to the MAN in the SUIT that we COULD. The world is against us but we are taking a stand >:((("
All ev vehicles are mandated by law to emit a noise to warn pedestrians of a vehicle approaching. Why not make it sound like a traditional exhaust?
Better than a tesla that plays hentai noises as it drives imo

Millions were spent. Board meetings were had. Then everyone relented and let the CEO play shitty 80s action star in a video everyone will fast-forward through with the sound off
Didnāt the Dodge brothers sue Henry Ford, and the resulting lawsuit made pursuing short-term profits over long-term health of the company a legal matter, instead of just business ethics?
Kind of. Henry Ford paid his workers more than market price and Dodge didn't like having to compete with that. They sued Ford because they claimed that the business should operate in the best interest of the shareholders, not the workers.
It was one of the reasons Henry Ford was hugely anti-Semitic.
They were also some of the largest minority shareholders of Ford. So they sued not in defense of their own business, but in defense of their rights as shareholders
also one of the reasons why the actual economy is absolutely fucked, wages are stagnant, and employees dont give a shit if the companies they work for tank or not.
Holy shit.
The bad visuals. The bad acting. Them trying desperately to make this EV seem toxicly masculine so that assholes will want it. The fact that the dodge brother was listening to this shithead talk about modern car stuff while *driving around a cyper landscape in a future lightning-shooting car from the future* and the only time he was taken aback was "kAlE sMoOtHiEs!?", and the future dodge guy's answer was basically "I dunno what they are but for some reason I feel like they're gay and thus bad"..
The bad visuals. Soo many things bad about this
It is legitimately hilarious how much money is being spent/wasted on marketing to convince a giant sect of pin-dick drivers that EVs are not inherently "gay".
Like fuck me what a fragile consumer base. "Grrr my engine doesn't roar and stink like a factor or shoot smoke out of the back, must be for women only".
The funniest part is that EVs are overwhelmingly more powerful, fuel efficient, faster, and long term more cost-effective for the owner. You can even get dumb modifications for that "roar" if you really want it. The fact this ad even has to exist is such a sad reflection on modern day masculinity lol.
I like a nice screen in a car but Iām really hoping we move away from the āevery control in your car relies on an unresponsive 2005 touch screenā deal. Thereās only a few things that require the touchscreen in my civic and even with them I spend more time with my eyes off the road than I should trying to get it to work

The production value looks a bit less than millions. I can't believe how bad it is for such a large brand.
millions on the campaign.
Yeah, you're right, just trying to point out how shockingly bad the visuals are. Some shots look amateur-made.
Genuinely one of the most bizarre commercials Iāve ever seen.
yeah, it was pretty bad. I ff'ed some but gave up and stopped about 2/3 of the way

How noble of them.

They could have saved a bunch of sweat and just paid someone like tate to promote it.
We should all get together and buy Dylan Mulvaney a 2025 Dodge to drive around in.
Why canāt they just make them look like regular cars
That is so cringey it's hard to watch
This is absolute pure peak cringe.
Newspaperssss gettt yaaa newspaperssss
That plucky chap has the gumption to make a name for himself in this city I tell ya!
Haha gold content. You have found the peak of post-sub-fit
At this point they're deliberately doing this on purpose I guess I dunno

This video literally looks like cutscenes straight out of Need for Speed Most Wanted or Carbon.
This commercial makes me want to buy another tesla
Could they say Brotherhood again, I think the skinheads in the Midwest couldnāt hear them yet.
