For far too long, the seat chosen in an SUV has set the tone for the journey ahead. Lexus is set to introduce its first-ever 2024 TX, and in a new campaign, the company is shifting the focus from the traditional seat hierarchy in an SUV to prioritize the comfort and enjoyment of all family members during the journey.
Lexus drivers have long expressed their desire for a genuine three-row SUV, and the 2024 TX aims to meet this demand by providing not only a means of transportation but also a delightful and comfortable experience for all passengers.
Collaborating with their long-time agency partner, Team One, Lexus brings this concept to life in their marketing campaign, with a central spot titled “Battle Out There.” In this narrative, a family returns to the airport after a tiring day of travel. However, memories of uncomfortable seats quickly fade away when they are welcomed into the spacious Lexus TX, transforming their journey into an enjoyable adventure. Watch below:
The campaign further explores the individualized travel discomforts of family members in three unique 15-second spots: “Cargo,” “Captain’s Chair,” and “Interface.” Each spot highlights the specific travel pain points experienced by different family members and how the Lexus TX provides a redeeming and comfortable solution for every seat.
REELated:
Lexus is committed to enhancing the overall travel experience, ensuring that the journey itself becomes a cherished part of the family’s memories. With the introduction of the 2024 TX, the brand aims to set a new standard for luxury SUVs by putting the comfort and enjoyment of every passenger at the forefront.
As the campaign unfolds, it is expected to resonate with families seeking a superior travel experience, making the 2024 TX an appealing choice for those who value both style and substance in their vehicles.
