For a second straight week, a spot for Honda’s SUV lineup leads iSpot.tv’s ranking 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 the first-place ad for the week of Oct. 1, the announcer recounts the versatility, comfort, reliability and other qualities of Honda’s CR-V, HR-V and Pilot SUV models.
In second place, professional driver Collete Davis races a ’19 Kia Forte along a runway, up a ramp and over an actual race car before crashing into a stack of cardboard boxes. Sound kind of weird? Well, says Kia, “It doesn’t have to make sense.”
Lexus maintains its place in the ranking at No.3 with its dramatic commercial in which a helicopter tracks an ES model through a cityscape.
The last two spots on the chart come from Chevrolet. In fourth place, a spokesman needs three tries to announce all the J.D. Power dependability awards Chevy models have received in the past three years. The No.5 ad features a “stampede” of trucks racing through a desert, rival models peeling away until only Chevys are left – a statement of the trucks’ dependability.
