Chevy Lands Twice on Most-Seen Auto Ads Chart

Chevrolet holds two spots on iSpot.tv’s latest ranking of the most-viewed automotive commercials – the ads tallying the highest number of impressions across national broadcast and cable TV airings.

The No.1 ad for the week of March 25 showcases real Chevy owners (not actors) who recently have switched to the brand, and notes special savings currently are available on the ’19 Malibu. And the fourth-place commercial shows how people from all walks of life depend on the Chevy Silverado.

Nissan highlights its lineup of cars and trucks in the second-place ad and lets viewers know big savings are available on the ’19 Rogue during the Nissan Now Sales Event.

GMC puts its own spin on the “rule of three” with the third-place commercial spotlighting its Canyon, Sierra and Sierra Heavy Duty pickup models. Special deals now are available on the Sierra 1500 when financing through GM Financial, the ad points out.

The theme of the No.5 commercial is “Yes,” as a little boy asks his father lots of questions while on a family outing in their ’19 Buick Enclave. With seating for seven, a sunroof, a backup camera and more, the announcer declares the Enclave to be everything a family wants in an SUV.
