Safety Message Keeps Honda Commercial Most-Watched

In first place for the week of Jan. 22-28 is Honda&rsquo;s ad for the &rsquo;18 Accord showing off safety features including collision- and road-departure-mitigation systems. &nbsp;

Honda once again tops the iSpot.tv rankings of the most-viewed automotive commercials – the ads that have racked up the highest number of impressions across national broadcast and cable TV airings.

In first place for the week of Jan. 22-28 is Honda’s ad for the ’18 Accord showing off safety features including collision- and road-departure-mitigation systems. This spot also had the best iSpot Attention Index (140), getting 40% fewer interruptions than the average auto ad (interruptions include changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).

Chart newcomer BMW takes No.2, claiming its X3 is “capable of more,” while third place goes to Chevrolet’s commercial about dependability – and a chance for Chevy to brag about winning J.D. Power dependability awards for its cars, trucks and SUVs two years in a row.

In fourth place Nissan invites people to “level up” with the new Rogue Sport, which has automatic emergency braking, intelligent all-wheel drive and an around-view monitor.

Volkswagen closes out the top five with a humorous spot in which a couple frantically rushes to pack beloved belongings in their Tiguan while evacuating before a meteor strike. One issue: the Tiguan has so much cargo space that they can’t stop going back for more.
