Cars, football and family as automaker teases its first Super Bowl commercial in 20 years. Woman gives birth, a man drives Nascar
Teaser trailers are beginning to dominate the Super Bowl ad landscape. Skittles teased its ad, which is apparently about men with big right arms, while Esurance responded to Progressive’s self-deprecating Kim Kardashian ad with a self-deprecating Lindsay Lohan ad. Automaker Nissan has gotten in on the act too after almost 20 years of opting not to make a Super Bowl commercial. It’s only a teaser so there’s obviously not a lot of info.
What we know so far is: a woman gives birth, a man drives a Nissan Nascar and says “with daaaaaad” in a slightly creepy way and Harry Chapin’s Cat’s in the Cradle provides the soundtrack. The automaker is saying it “can’t wait to share this emotional story” with football fans. It seems to be a common approach in the auto industry, with around half the ad space for this year’s big event being bought up by gearheads. Get ready to get emotional … about a car.
