Three Toyota “1 for Everyone Sales Event” commercials dominate the weekly Most Engaging Auto Ads ranking, powered for WardsAuto by iSpot.tv.

In first place is a fast-paced spot that drives home the availability of 0% financing during Toyota’s big sale, while 0% financing also closes out the spot at No.3 and a Spanish-language version is No.4.

A heavily broadcast Mazda commercial, “The Proposal: Driving Matters” – now up to 2,565 cumulative national airings – slips from third place on last week’s list to fifth place this time, while a goofy Scion ad starring a “car dealership tube man” appears at No.2.

Of note: Subaru’s highly popular “Dog Tested” ads, which repeatedly have appeared on our recent rankings, slip out of the top five this week.
