Mazda Maintains Hold on Top Ads List

For the second straight week, Mazda’s “Carried Away” commercial controls the No.1 spot in the weekly Most Engaging Auto Ads rankings, powered for WardsAuto by iSpot.tv.

With 1,716 total national airings to date, Mazda keeps engaging viewers week after week with this simple but compelling spot narrated by actor Aaron Paul.

Mazda continues to dominate this week’s list with two additional appearances: its ad for the CX-9, also narrated by Paul, grabs second place, while “Driving Matters: Passenger,” with music by Patsy Cline, secures the No.5 slot.

Ford continues its hold on the No.3 position with a high-energy spot about conquering the sport of everyday life, while Honda’s Civic Coupe commercial featuring a square world sinks from second place to fourth.
