Park your car. Live your life.
SMART CAR
Parking gets in the way of living. We're constantly on the go...but it's not the going we're after, it's the destination. While other cars stand in the way of you reaching your destination, a Smart car lets you get on with parking so you can get on with living. In this campaign, iconic fictional characters with equally iconic modes of transportation get smart and make the switch. When will you?

Iconic fictional characters (with equally iconic modes of transportation) getting smart and upgrading to a Smart car.
TVC/AUDIO
Curb your car. Not your enthusiasm.
VO (Barry White baritone):
​
It’s that moment...
when your eyes zero in on 3/4 of a parking spot.
To any other driver it’s a tease... bait;
to tempt but never to be attained.
But to you, you Smart car driver you,
it’s a portal to freedom.
We call it the ‘SMARTspot,’
and it’s all yours.
It’s ok to celebrate.
