DETROIT (Wednesday, January 29, 2014) – The new 2015 Chevrolet Silverado HD makes a bullish first impression in its new commercial that will air during the Super Bowl XLVIII broadcast on CTV on Sunday, Feb. 2.
The 2015 Silverado HD’s first TV ad, “Romance,” is a charming story about a man, his truck and a new bachelor in town. It follows a handsome cattle rancher as he transports his stud-bull to an exciting, romantic rendezvous across town in the new Silverado HD – Chevrolet’s strongest and most advanced heavy-duty pickup ever.
“We like how ‘Romance’ uses humor to show the power and capability of the truck and the interesting demands our customers place on their heavy-duty trucks,” said Tim Mahoney, Chevrolet’s global chief marketing officer.
The commercial was filmed in Austin, Texas, and is set to the 1975 hit, “You Sexy Thing,” by the British group Hot Chocolate. It was developed by the Silverado’s agency of record, Leo Burnett Detroit. The spot shows off the truck’s exterior design and towing capabilities, as well as the available Duramax diesel engine and Allison® transmission.
In addition to the “Romance” ad, audiences in Canada will be shown two additional commercials during Sunday’s Super Bowl. True North Strong “Eco” features the Silverado’s best fuel efficiency rating of any V-8 pickup, while True North Strong “Warranty” focuses on the best pickup coverage in Canada.
