Hyundai Motor Europe has unveiled a launch campaign for the all-new KONA. The innovative release, which recently aired in Europe, aims to showcase how a child's imagination knows no bounds, while also highlighting the endless opportunities brought about by technological advancements.

The emotive launch of the all-new KONA

The campaign emphasizes not only the provision of the all-new KONA’s cutting-edge technology, but also the creation of emotional experiences. The launch encapsulates the essence of Hyundai's vision in the direction of "Live Unlimited". It aims to conquer the unimaginable and promote innovative solutions for everyday life. The new KONA stands as a testament to this vision, encouraging customers to embark on a new era of sustainable transportation. Accompanied by a beautiful piece of visual storytelling, Hyundai skilfully depicts the car's advanced features and extended electrical range, empowering people to drive with confidence.

Connecting with the inner-child

In a captivating hero film, the new KONA EV takes centre stage, embarking on a whimsical journey through the city. Along the way, the car encounters knights on horses, a chasing dragon, a racecar, and even a monster truck.

However, a twist reveals that these extraordinary scenarios were products of a child's imagination, the one from Noah, a boy inspired by the trips he took in the new KONA. This striking revelation underscores the idea that the new model is not just a car but a vehicle that sparks imagination and inspires to pursue our dreams.

The film concludes with a powerful message: "When did you stop believing anything is possible?" This message truly reflects the spirit of Hyundai as the company relentlessly pursues its goal of becoming a sustainable mobility solutions provider. By wholeheartedly embracing this mindset, Hyundai recognizes the intrinsic link between realizing our full potential and driving progress. It serves as a reminder that meaningful advancements in sustainable mobility can only be achieved by pushing boundaries and embracing new ideas, much like how we do when we connect with our inner child. The imagery in the film symbolizes how the new generation KONA Electric, with its cutting-edge technology, can unlock new possibilities and enrich the lives of customers, offering a more fulfilling experience.

A multifaceted launch strategy

Hyundai's latest launch was produced in Budapest to showcase the European lifestyle and the city’s stunning architecture. One of the standout visual effects is the seamless spinning movement of the new KONA, reminiscent of the way kids play with their toy cars. The practical effect was executed by placing the car on a specially built turning platform for the shot.

The strategic marketing campaign, designed by Innocean Berlin, the creative agency behind this project, aims to inspire progressive mindsets through various formats. TV spots, online videos, and social media assets are utilized to effectively present Hyundai's “Live Unlimited” vision. Alongside the hero film, the launch includes impactful 3D Out-of-home (OOH) and print ads, which add drama and amplify the video’s impact.

To further enhance the product discovery experience, new walkaround videos have been created by design and innovation agency AKQA, providing in-depth exploration of the model's features. Additionally, shorter 15" product films have been developed to highlight specific features, offering a quick glimpse of what makes this model unique. With its engaging and innovative marketing approach, Hyundai's latest launch aims to captivate audiences and leave a lasting impression.
