Campaign kicks off with a 60-second television commercial called “Dues”
•TV spots feature the “Stay Uncompromised” A3 theme unveiled during Super Bowl
•2015 Audi A3 hits U.S. showrooms in April
Audi today debuts a new advertising campaign for the all-new 2015 Audi A3 sedan. The campaign kicks off with a 60-second television commercial called “Dues” starring comedian Ricky Gervais, celebrity chef David Chang, internationally-acclaimed photojournalist Lynsey Addario, comedian Kristen Schaal, gold medal winning boxer Claressa Shields, street artists Cyrcle, and inner city church choir Voices of Destiny.
“Building off the ‘Stay Uncompromised’ theme that debuted during the Super Bowl, the new campaign for the Audi A3 celebrates fearless individuals who refuse to compromise: whether they’re entertainers, athletes or Audi engineers,” said Loren Angelo, Director of Marketing, Audi of America.
The cinematic spot “Dues” features each character reciting lines from “We Are the Champions” by Queen. As it builds to the chorus, the spot becomes a rallying cry for the “uncompromised” nature of these trailblazers who refuse to cut corners and never settle – the inspiration behind the Audi A3. As a complement to the campaign, each “Dues” character is profiled in an online video series called “Uncompromised Portraits” on Audi’s YouTube channel. "Dues" will run throughout the NCAA March Madness tournament.
The campaign also features two 30-second TV spots that highlight technology prominent within the new A3. The Audi A3 family breaks the boundaries and raises the bar as to what is expected out of entry-level luxury vehicles. The A3 marks the first time that an A-segment vehicle will offer MMI® technology, Audi drive select, 4G LTE connectivity and Bang & Olufsen® audio.
