Idea

An all-electric SUV wears the pony

For the first time in 55 years, Ford expanded the Mustang family, bringing the famous pony into the electric age with Mustang Mach-E, an all-new, all-electric SUV born of the same all-American ideals that inspired the best-selling coupe in the world.

We challenged Ford to think beyond a launch event and create a cultural moment that would engage the loyal Mustang fanbase and inspire a whole new generation of future Mustang owners.

An electrifying reveal

For the reveal we created a TV show format, starring Idris Elba, with special guests including Ken Block, Molly McQueen, Billy Johnson, Ben Collins and Bill Ford. The fast-paced show from the Jet Centre Los Angeles took the audience on a journey of what the Mustang has always meant to fans, and why the time is right for an all-electric Mustang to join the stable.

Community moment

The show had Detroit swagger with the reveal featuring the incredible Detroit Youth Choir and a 28ft high giant pony used as a platform for projection mapping. The evening culminated with the reveal of the Mustang Mach-E GT alongside its stablemates.

Impact

Value for the audience

For the 5.9 million+ viewers on Twitter, 1.3 million of viewers of Facebook and millions that watched on Instagram, this launch surely captivated many. Depth of content came from the engaging format and special guests.


Congratulations on the Mach-E! Sustainable/electric cars are the future!! Excited to see this announcement from Ford, as it will encourage other carmakers to go electric too.
