SUMMARY
To survive in tough market conditions, Toyota’s Aygo needed a complete reinvention. We launched the new generation of this model, the Aygo X, as the segment was declining, margins were shrinking, and our key competitor was growing increasingly dominant. With a mandate to grow sales, despite a 20-25% increase in list prices, we harnessed a simple yet valuable product truth and used it successfully shift perceptions from “cheap and cheerful” to unique and desirable. Our campaign delivered 38% sales growth in a segment that declined by 18% the same year.
