Does Mercedes-Benz have the best Super Bowl ad yet?
Loading...
The classic tale of the tortoise and the hare gets a fresh, modern spin in Mercedes-Benz鈥檚 ad for Super Bowl XLIX. The tortoise is still the winner, but this time he doesn鈥檛 rely on the hare falling asleep but rather the pace of the all-new 2016 Mercedes-AMG GT.
MUST SEE:聽
In the 60-second spot, we see the tortoise visit Mercedes-AMG鈥檚 factory where he picks up the keys to one very nice-looking silver GT S. It鈥檚 then all over for the hare, who also loses his girl to 鈥渢he turtle鈥� by the end of the race.
The new ad coincides with the market launch of the GT S. The car has been priced at $130,825, with shipping, which isn鈥檛 a bad deal considering you鈥檙e getting aluminum construction, a transaxle gearbox, a plush interior and 503 horsepower to play with. Those waiting for the slightly tamer GT model with 456 hp will have to wait until spring of next year.
