Crash safety…. demonstrated by VW

VW Jetta

Volkswagen’s latest two commercials in the USA for the new-look Jetta are causing some controversy.

They violently depict accidents but, as you would expect, show how safe a VW Jetta is as the passengers come out unscathed, and then the commercial ends with an untraditional sequence of a crash-damaged Jetta rotating, thereby sacrificing the oppotunity to show the consumer the car in perfect condition.

What these commercials starkly demonstrate is what happens to anyone in a crash; you’re going about your day, driving around in your car, talking to a friend and… BANG ….. out of nowhere you get hit.

Watching it makes you realize how traumatic this experience is. But does it improve the chances you’ll buy a Jetta?

    Actually, it’s now one of the most discussed commercials on blogs in the US.

    And it’s still running.

    So, when it was produced or first aired, is not the issue here.

    So what if it is? That’s not a stand point nor a gage to weigh it against. Plus, it was just an opinion cuz it was aired long ago and I first found out about this one like 2 weeks ago about the debates and the discussions, which have nothing to do with this.

    Anyways, that was a very never-come-back-here kindda comment and more of we-know-it-all-so-shutup-and-dance kindda comment.

    That’s not the intention of the answer posted.

    And as you and any visitor can see, there’s no gagging on AdBlogArabia….. your post critisizing us is online for all to see.

    You’re always welcome to come back…. and start debates.

    That’s what we’re here for.
