2019 Kia Sorento takes world’s shortest test drive

YKMS0260GENH.218.Still003[2][1][1][2][1][3][1]

The Reel 360 Team didn’t see this coming.

In the newest spot for Kia Motors America, from creative agency David & Goliath, the agency asks us to ponder the question, “How many features of the 2019 Sorento can you showcase in just over 300 feet?”

Their answer lies in the latest spot, directed by Spinach’s Julian Smith, which demonstrates 17 features on a 335-foot straightaway in 22-seconds flat, making it the shortest test drive ever.

In the spot, titled “The World’s Shortest Test Drive,” KMA leverages the ever-dwindling attention spans of consumers by turning the typical test drive on its head and challenging the usual car features ad by literally packing the most innovative and desired features into it.

Why?

Because life’s too short for boring test drives. Duh. Watch below:

If you missed them, let us help you. The features were: The 17 features revealed are: Keyless entry, UVO voice command recognition, Bluetooth wireless, Android Auto, Wireless charging, 8” touch screen, All-wheel drive, Electronic Stability Control, Blind- Spot Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Torque Vectoring Corner Control, Forward Collision Warning, Brake Assist System, Rear-Camera Display, Surround View Monitor, Rear Cross Traffic Collision Warning

“When you think about what Give It Everything means at its core, it’s about being relentless in your pursuit of greatness. Even if that pursuit is only 300 feet,” said David Angelo, founder and chairman of David&Goliath. “What better way to prove the essence of your brand tag line than by challenging how we deliver our product message.”

The spot went live yesterday. It will probably last longer than that test drive.
