Discover the Possibilities with Toyota’s All-New 2021 Venza Campaign

Campaign

National marketing effort launches new model

PLANO, Texas (September 28, 2020) – Built for the seekers of new experiences and adventures, Toyota’s all-new 2021 Venza delivers on this quest, empowering drivers to discover the unlimited possibilities that await them on the road ahead. Today, Toyota celebrates Venza with the launch of the “Seekers of New” marketing campaign.

“The new campaign beautifully highlights the best that Venza has to offer,” said Ed Laukes, group vice president, Toyota Marketing, Toyota Motor North America. “We’re thrilled to give our guests an elevated driving experience in a vehicle they can enjoy. Complete with advanced vehicle technologies and hybrid performance, Venza upholds the impeccable quality, style, and handling our customers know and expect from Toyota.”

The “Seekers of New” campaign hero spot “Lifesaver” features a couple’s quest to save their beloved family pet. The owners leverage Venza’s impressive performance capabilities to  maneuver roads and travel safely through less-than-ideal weather conditions throughout their search. With additional help from the available digital rearview mirror, the family is reunited with their best (fur) friend, proving that Venza is everything they need when they need it most.

Broadcast and Digital

The campaign’s :30-second hero spot “Lifesaver” was created by Toyota’s agency of record, Saatchi & Saatchi, and director duo Hoffman / Metoyer. The song featured in the spot is “Love Lost” by indie rock band The Temper Trap. Additionally, social and digital spots, “Sunlight,” “Downpour,” “City Sounds,” and “Fueling Up,” showcase the crossover’s premium features including an available Star Gaze™ fixed panoramic glass roof, ultra-quiet interior, and EPA-estimated class-leading 39 MPG combined.

The all-new 2021 Toyota Venza debuts with the TV spot “Lifesaver.”
