Shot in Switzerland at the famous and notoriously steep and winding roads of the Klausen Pass in Switzerland, this *EPIC* film took months in planning by Foxtrot Papa, and we feel hugely privileged to have chased FP and their crew around, capturing this immense showdown between Man vs. Machine.
Ahead of its launch in Europe, Corvette wanted to prove that their new 706 model was just as capable of handling the continent’s sharp corners and twisting mountain roads as any European supercar, whilst reinforcing the brand’s reputation for speed and power.
They approached Foxtrot Papa to help them produce a one-of-a-kind stunt, that would drive brand awareness, generate leads for test-drives and increase showroom traffic.
The content drove over 290k visitors to Corvette’s site in just 13 weeks, resulting in an incredible 7,398 test drive requests and 10,757 total leads. On average, Foxtrot Papa’s content ecosystem generated an average of 20m impressions of the film per week, smashing brand awareness targets and making it one of Corvette’s most successful campaigns ever.
