Chevrolet dumps Mazda from the No.1 spot in the weekly Most Engaging Auto Ads chart, powered for WardsAuto by iSpot.tv.
Chevy’s 2-minute spot demonstrating the superiority of the ʼ16 Silverado’s steel truck bed captured an overwhelming 50.81% of the industry’s digital share of voice.
Meanwhile, the hamsters are back in Kia’s latest ad, which comes in at No.2 and has humans and animals alike playing instruments and “sharing some soul.”
The music theme continues this week with Lincoln’s third-place commercial featuring Grammy-nominated R&B artist Sharon Jones (and a cameo by actor Matthew McConaughey enjoying her singing). Fourth place goes to a Volvo spot that includes a song by indie darling Sharon Van Etten. Rounding out the chart is Mazda’s ad for the CX-9, which slips from first place to No.5.
