The second-place ad shows a fleet of Mercedes-Benz models zipping through snowy woods before coming upon a pack of reindeer. Narrator Jon Hamm says, “May your holidays glow bright, and all your dreams take flight,” before urging viewers to take advantage of the Mercedes-Benz Winter Event.
The seasonal sales continue with Hyundai’s No.3 commercial, which highlights special deals on the ’20 Santa Fe CUV.
In Chevrolet’s fourth-place spot, spokesman Potsch Boyd quizzes “real kids (not actors)” about the safety features available in the ’20 Equinox.

Ford rounds out the ranking with an ad highlighting how the F-150 pickup can tow up to 13,200 pounds (6,000 kg) of whatever – from antique cars and horse trailers to watermelons and wood.
