Brand Activation //
HIGHWAY ROBBERY
For the launch of Volvo's XC90 T8 hybrid SUV, we created "Highway Robbery," an innovative campaign that embodied the vehicle's commitment to powerful performance and environmental consciousness. Instead of a traditional ad, we developed a groundbreaking technology: a "road-mat" that captured energy from passing traffic to charge the Volvo. This activation on a busy Southern California road not only demonstrated the XC90 T8's innovative approach to power but also sparked a conversation about the future of driving. "Highway Robbery" successfully positioned Volvo as a leader in combining high performance with environmental responsibility, setting a new standard for innovative automotive marketing in the competitive luxury SUV market.
