Harvest Automobiles | Å koda Branding Campaign | Singapore

Czechoslovakian automotive company Å koda is giving the brand a makeover with a series of print ads in Singapore.

Creative agency Patroids intends to turn around perception of lower quality towards the carmaker that it says stems from a lack of knowledge among Singaporean consumers. Patroids has designed four print ad designs to articulate the brand’s “European flair”. “We are educating the consumers about the little-known factory-fitted features that are considered standard in Škoda’s cars, as well as the enviable power under the hood,” the Patroids team said.

One scenario compares the car’s grille to a lineup at the races; another, slightly edgier ad shows the car with an open boot underneath the line ‘Bury the competition’.

The campaign is running in selected publications such as The Business Times and Today.
