Chevrolet is No.1 in iSpot.tv’s latest ranking of the five most-viewed automotive commercials – the ads that have grabbed the highest number of impressions across national broadcast and cable TV airings – with one of the four ads touting Black Friday sales events.
Chevrolet’s first-place spot for the week of Nov. 19 promotes special financing for the ’19 Equinox, while GMC’s No.2 ad offers a financing deal on ’18 Yukon/XL models.
Third place goes to Nissan with a commercial highlighting deals including a $149/month lease for the ’18 Rogue or a $229/month lease for the ’18 Pathfinder, plus $500 holiday bonus cash.
Buick suggests the perfect gift for the person who loves to tailgate: a new ’18 Encore offering plenty of trunk space and available with a $5,500 total-value offer through GM Financial.
Finally, Lincoln expresses a timeless holiday sentiment in the fifth spot on the chart: “The greatest wish of all is one that brings us together.” With the Wish List Sales Event, customers can get $1,000 trade-assist cash on select Lincoln vehicles.
