Jeep claims most-watched auto ad for second time in three weeks.

Jeep grabs the top spot in iSpot.tv’s latest ranking of the most-viewed automotive commercials – the ads that have generated the most impressions across national broadcast and cable TV airings.

In its No.1 commercial for the week of Aug. 10, Jeep encourages us to get out and see the “beauty all around us.”

Chevrolet’s upbeat second-place spot also encourages us to explore – especially now, during the Chevy Open Roads Sales Event.

At No.3, Buick shows off the available Alexa voice assistant built into the Encore GX. In fourth place, actress Brie Larson helps hype the Nissan Sentra’s rear automatic braking and Nissan Intelligent Mobility. This spot has the best iSpot Attention Score in the ranking (95.87), meaning viewers were on average more likely to watch it all the way through (vs. interrupting it by changing the channel, pulling up the guide, fast-forwarding or turning off the TV).

Closing out the chart is a spot in which Subaru reveals that in partnership with its retailers, it’s replanting 500,000 trees in areas hard-hit by wildfires.
