The Campaign

For the launch of the new BMW X3 we wanted to "hack" this linear format in order to create the first complex car visualiser in a Canvas Ad.

Creative Execution

Of course, this complex interaction could not be solved with a single canvas ad. That's why we simply linked 64 separate canvas ads to each other in a clever way. For the first time ever, users can now style a vehicle directly in their Facebook timeline. They simply choose the preferred model, paint, rims and interior. And in the end they can even test drive their individually configured BMW X3.

Results

We managed to win over a very large and young target group for the BMW X3 and arranged lots of test drives. And created a whole new way to generate leads in social media.

In order to attract as much attention as possible to the launch of the new BMW X3 in a young target group and to generate new leads at the same time, we wanted to make the vehicle particularly exciting on Facebook. By using a Canvas Ad – a special large-format advertising plattform developed for mobile Facebook only.
