New Zealand's Passion for the Toyota Corolla is Reignited in New Saatchi & Saatchi Campaign

The Corolla model has been a part of Kiwi culture fabric since the 60s

New Zealand’s love affair with the Toyota Corolla has been reignited in a new campaign from Saatchi & Saatchi, ‘Nothing’s changed, except everything’, created to truly recognise and celebrate its iconic status, and impressive new design.

The launch of the latest generation Toyota Corolla earlier this month represented a turning point for the best-selling passenger car in the country, as Toyota revealed a bolder, dynamic exterior design and more rewarding driving experience.

Being an enduring classic doesn’t mean standing still, as evident in the simple genius, timeless appeal, and continual reinterpretation of pasta or jeans. When it comes to the Toyota Corolla, it has been part of the fabric of Kiwi culture since 1969 but innovations in safety, emissions, and design plant it firmly in the year 2018.


Toby Talbot, Chief Creative Officer at Saatchi & Saatchi New Zealand said, "The heritage and confidence of the brand allowed the creative to stand above mere comparisons, and claim its rightful place as a legendary part of everyday life for Kiwis". 



“In this campaign we’re not comparing the new Corolla to other cars. It plays way too big a role in our lives to be considered just as a car,” said Mr Talbot. “So we compare it to other staples in our life that we can’t imagine life without, like pasta and jeans. Tastes may have changed over the years, but the love we share for Corolla remains undimmed.”



Andrew Davis, Toyota General Manager Marketing & Information Services, said “The Corolla has been a part of New Zealand culture for 50 years and kiwis share great memories of times spent in a Corolla with family or friends. The new 12th generation Corolla is hugely exciting for us, more power, more self-charging Hybrids and a fantastic new design so it will appeal to whole new generation of New Zealanders. This was the challenge for the Saatchi’s team who have done a fantastic job in delivering a creative that can talk to new and existing Corolla drivers across multiple platforms”

The campaign is set to be the biggest launch campaign for a Toyota model in 2018 and will span TV, online video, social media, digital display, OOH, print and point of sale.
