Last week the car brand Mazda teamed up with the Toronto-based office of the advertising agency JWT to launch an unprecedented digital campaign on Instagram. The aim was to introduce a new MX-5 Roadster model in Canada to young 18-to-35-year-old drivers and engage them in a natural yet entertaining way.

This year’s Geneva Motor Show was the venue for the world premiere of Mazda’s new multi-channel brand campaign that will tell the fascinating story of Mazda using new media forms. The first of these forms is a new website that offers a deep-dive into the Mazda brand and the secrets behind its enduring success.
Mazda USA is hitting the road to reach Generation Y consumers, who love indie music and traveling. The brand’s sub-compact model, Mazda2, is sponsoring 32-stop concert tour of Mayer Hawthorne & the County, which is rolling out from October 3 in Fort Lauderdale through November 12 in Los Angeles for audiences of 750-1,500 people. The car and artist’s collaboration (the fist music-themed one for the brand) is backed by a massive digital campaign, which includes the website featuring lots of music and video content, as well as Twitter, YouTube, Flickr and Facebook for spreading the word through online channels.
