Hyundai Launches New Tucson Campaign Empowering Hispanic Drivers to Find the Perfect Fit
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Sept. 18, 2024 – Hyundai and its U.S. Hispanic marketing agency, Lopez Negrete Communications, launched a new creative campaign for the enhanced 2025 Tucson SUV. The campaign is designed to empower Latino consumers across all age and demographic segments to right-size their ride without sacrificing or settling in a sea of underwhelming safe-bet alternatives. Titled “Rightsizing,” the campaign is brought to life in both Spanish and English and highlights the Tucson’s bold design, innovative technology, connectivity and safety features, that perfectly fit Hispanic lifestyles.
The new Hyundai Tucson “Rightsizing” commercial creatively captures the concept of finding the perfect fit in life. The ad begins with a series of relatable moments where everyday objects, like a cookie, a couch, or a return package, fail to fit just right in their intended places.
These visuals set the stage for the introduction of the new Hyundai Tucson, which is presented as the vehicle that “fits your lifestyle to perfection”, when a woman effortlessly unlocks the Tucson with her smartwatch, using the advanced features to seamlessly integrate the vehicle into her life. The closing message, “Isn’t it exciting when everything in your life simply fits?” reinforces the Tucson as the ideal choice for those seeking a vehicle that aligns with their lifestyle without compromise.
“The 2025 Tucson is a perfect reflection of our commitment to providing vehicles that meet the diverse needs of our Hispanic consumers,” said Sean Gilpin, chief marketing officer, Hyundai Motor America. “This campaign emphasizes not just the advanced technology, safety, and bold design of the Tucson, but also its ability to seamlessly fit into the varied lifestyles of Latino drivers across the nation. By focusing on ‘rightsizing,’ we’re empowering Hispanic consumers to choose a vehicle that doesn’t require them to compromise on their vision or needs, ensuring they can confidently embrace their journey in a vehicle that truly resonates with who they are.”
“With the launch of the ‘Rightsizing’ campaign for the 2025 Tucson, we are proud to connect with the Hispanic community through a culturally rich and impactful narrative,” said Erik Thomas, director, experiential and multicultural marketing, Hyundai Motor America. “This campaign reflects our commitment to understanding and celebrating the unique experiences of Latino consumers, offering them a vehicle that not only meets their practical needs but also resonates with their cultural identity. By showcasing the Tucson’s innovative features and robust design, we are empowering Hispanic drivers to choose a vehicle that complements their journey without compromise.”
“As with all our Hyundai campaigns we emphasize key elements within our Hispanic culture, such as a desire to seek out that which is cutting edge while being a refined and true expression of ourselves,” said Alex López Negrete, president and CEO of Lopez Negrete Communications. “As Latinos, we do not settle for blending in. By highlighting the 2025 Tucson’s redesigned exterior, rugged capabilities and innovative technology, we give the Hispanic consumer the power to make their journey richer without breaking the bank. We are also very proud of this production and of the visually powerful and very relatable work of Latino director Jorge Aguilera, and production house Madre, a diverse-owned company.”
