Challenge

From the outset, Tesla has worked hard to counter the perception that their electric vehicles are not for everyone. The company needed to position the dual-motor Model S as a car built for real drivers in the real world.

Insight

A new product from a new manufacturer? That's a serious barrier to consideration for the typical consumer. And prospects won't take a manufacturer on their word, but they will trust the experiences of those who have been behind the wheel.

Solution

We focused on market misconceptions and identified the opportunities to set the record straight, from the proving grounds to the backroads. And we captured it all on video to bring the experience right into the showroom and share in ongoing social campaigns.

Identity

Tesla planned a test drive event tour to prove to drivers that the dual motor Model S is is an all-weather performance vehicle. We made all the connections with a punchy name for the tour and a mark that alludes to snow-capped mountains and iced-over roads grounded in a pair of interlocking diamonds that say dual motors deliver all the power you need.

Brand Experience

To showcase the high performance and all-weather dependability of the dual-motor Model S, Tesla planned a coast-to-coast test drive event tour. We gave the tour its creative theme and a distinctive mark to guarantee that test drivers came away with a memorable hook they could share.

The Tesla Model S marketing projects were conceived and executed by Crafted Stories. M^cMillan acquired the top talent and intellectual property of Crafted Stories in October of 2018.
