Iron Man drives the Audi R8 V10 Spyder






In this 2010 television commercial advertising the new and sleek car, the Audi R8 V10 Spyder, the Iron Man 2 film is used to grab its viewer’s attention. The advertising car company based its product off of the high percentage of interest towards superhero films from viewers everywhere, which can get them more purchases overall. Most commercials are targeted to persuade the viewer to want something whether or not they considered it before and when the advertisers want to really sell a product, they use something or someone relatable and well known to most of their viewers. The tagline of this commercial is, “It’s awe-inspiring, it has unbridled power, and it can also get the girl.” The marketers used this to show that the car is like Iron man in the way his suit is sleek, powerful and how he always manages to get the girl. This marketing idea is trying to make the car seem new and improved by using Iron Man as a comparison because they want people to buy this “amazing” vehicle and they realize that most superheroes always own cool products which makes the viewers want to have the same items. This advertisement does a good job incorporated and reconciling naughty in the way of using the film, Iron Man, as a marketing method because ideally, this commercial does not prove that this car is even a good product in the first place. Are you willing to base the consistency of a product off of the use of a good film in an advertisement?
