SUMMARY
Buick ExcelleGT, equipped with a more energy-efficient three-cylinder engine, relaunched last year. However, resulting from consumers’ bias of three-cylinder, ExcelleGT suffered from a severe sales decline. The previous Top-3 sedan fell out of the top 20.
In fact, most three-cylinder haters haven’t even driven it. Therefore, the best way to change consumers’ bias is to let them experience rather than educate them. So we launched a humorous test drive. Consumers were invited to test drive both three-cylinder and three-cylinder Buick. But we secretly interchanged the engine in order to let consumers experience without bias. Those who thought they drove four-cylinder (actually three-cylinder) were amazed at the driving experience. The rumor of three-cylinder is exploded in front of the fact.
This real product experiencing event not only overturn consumers’ bias successfully, but also help the former sales king went back to Top 3 again.
