You can do anything if you just unpark your life.

You can do anything if you just unpark your life.

Subaru Asia

Subaru Asia came to us with a challenge—they had been competing in tough markets across ten countries in Southeast Asia but their brand awareness wasn’t where they needed it to be. To solve this, we took a good look at the people we were trying to reach, uncovering their wants, needs, and way of life throughout the region. Then we reinvented how these individual countries connected with the Subaru brand. By crafting brand personalities for each model, redesigning Subaru Asia’s online experience, and creating omni-channel campaigns, we managed to raise not only brand awareness and loyalty, but also sales. 

When I heard Cibo talk about the experience being the brand, I knew they could help me differentiate Subaru in Asia across advertising, dealer, and digital experiences.

What We Did
Beginning with the Forester, XV, and Impreza models, we launched each model into multiple countries with television commercials, print ads, and digital campaigns. We also designed and executed the auto show presentations for new model years, along with the dealer experience, including signage, graphics, and interactive sales tools. In short, we’ve spent two years developing the entire Subaru Asia brand experience.
What We Found
  • Who doesn’t want to unpark their life?
  • Vertical integration makes amazing experiences possible.
  • Adventure is a way of life.
  • Humor requires little translation.
One brand, many personalities.

XV: Unpark your life.
The Subaru XV is a compact SUV that handles like a sports car and appeals to a young urban buyer. Through a series of dynamic and humorous TV spots, we developed a distinct and dynamic personality for the car that injects fun and surprise into any situation.

Unpark Your Life began as a tagline capturing the spirit of XV, but quickly became the anchor of the vehicle brand. Symbolized in the unpark logo and aligned with the XV’s bold signature orange color, Unpark Your Life has expanded into a range of expressions, including on the start-up screen of the vehicle itself.

Forester: Is there anything you can’t do?
The Forester represents a unique combination of pragmatism and rugged persistence that we captured with the tagline “Is there anything you can’t do?” and showcased in a series of TV spots featuring everyday heroes and their families.
Subaru Forester: Tryout

Impreza: Drive on.
The new Impreza is the first vehicle to incorporate the new Subaru Global Platform, a technology overhaul that makes dramatic improvements to the quality of the ride. We developed a series of quirky ads to tell the story of this entry-level car and the benefits of the global platform in unexpected ways.
Subaru Impreza: Fugu

Changing the conversation.
Car advertising in southeast Asia has been uniformly boring for more than a decade. Our research suggested this uninspired marketplace was due for a shakeup. So we’ve injected a bit of inspiration mixed with attitude and the results speak for themselves. We increased sales by 60% and are busy creating experiences for five more Subaru models. All it took was a little more heart.
Wherever you are in your journey, get in touch. We’ll discuss where you’re at today and create a plan to deliver a customer experience that will transform your business.
