General Motors is changing the way the world views electric vehicles, and now, they’re looking to shift the vehicle safety paradigm by changing the way the world thinks about road safety – by engineering safety through a human lens.
In the latest campaign from McCann Detroit, General Motors introduces Periscope, a new safety brand that brings together research, technology and advocacy to help illustrate how the company is working to achieve its vision of a future with zero crashes.
The “Pleasant Surprises” campaign spotlights the truth that in life we experience pleasant surprises, yet on the road, there’s no such thing. Through GM’s holistic approach to safety, brought to life by Periscope, GM seeks to celebrate the fortuitous moments that come about in life when the unfortunate ones are avoided.
