Cadillac’s promotion for its Made to Move Sales Event, during which customers can get special financing on most ’19 models, logs in with the highest number of impressions across national broadcast and cable TV airings during the week of July 15.

The information is tracked by iSpot.tv, the always-on TV ad measurement and attribution company that ranks the most-viewed automotive commercials.

In second place is Chevrolet with a spot for the ’19 Blazer featuring “real people (not actors)” admiring the vehicle. 

Lincoln invites people to discover their approach to craftsmanship in the third-place commercial. This spot has the best iSpot Attention Index (147) in the ranking, getting 47% fewer interruptions than the average auto ad (interruptions include changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).

Fourth place goes to Subaru’s ad for the ’19 Ascent, which has EyeSight and Pre-Collision Braking to help prevent accidents. And finally, another ad from Chevrolet rounds out the ranking, this time with real Chevy owners talking about why they switched from other auto brands.
