The name of the video speaks for itself.

Easy mode: pressing play and watching first 10 seconds
Hard mode: watching half way
Nightmare mode: watch all of it.... twice

1:11. Gosh. I bet those dancers were embarrassed as hell.

[J____]

i watched all of it. shitty dancers lol

[seekerbeta]

lol.. i watched it all.. didn't 2 years ago, they were promising 200+ miles of gasoline free driving?, then it dropped to 100 miles sometime last year, now they are saying "Up to 40 Miles No Gas" hrm... something tells me that it might just be a prius with a chevy nameplate, and it may turn into. "First 10 Miles on Battery" before they release it

[CivicTypeRice]

The guy's talented, his headspin was impressive. \overall that was fucked up

[freakshow]

Couldn't pass hard.. only got to 53s

[!Aznboi128]

what a horrible promo

[The_AK]

seriously though, someone must have been stoned out of their mind when they threw this idea on the table

i'm just picturing people sitting around the boardroom table, the whole conversation happened something like this...

VP of Marketing - "So how are we going to get people involved with the new Volt"
Project Manager - "According to fact, people enjoy singing songs, plus they're catchy"
VP of Marketing - "I think you're onto something!"
Project Manager - "We can produce a catchy song and even have a dance that goes along with it too!"
Janitor - "I think you guys need to rethink this whole plan, I really don't think this will help convey the Volt's brand image"
VP of Marketing - "But its the only shot we got, and we're on a tight budget. Samson! Make it work"
Project Manager - "I'm already calling NBC regarding the rejected contestants of America's Best Dance crew as we speak, we'll need to hold auditions as soon as possible."
VP of Marketing - "Good, just make sure the ethnicity of the crew is evenly split, we want to ALL americans to see how good we can dance ...err build cars."

...
something like that

[JSALES]

[q0192837465]

lolz, at least they got us talking. All publicity is good publicity

[StealthFighter]

that was a bad song and bad dancing by the girls. just looked like they hired drunk gogo dancers from a club.

the guy was good though. when i saw he had a toque on. oh shit...i knew a headspin was coming.

gotta admit the song was somewhat catchy...even if the lyrics didn't make sense.

overall i didn't think it was too bad.

[drunkrussian]

it's actually common at trade shows to do completely unrelated shit in order to get people to notice your booth. I agree that it's a stupid concept, but hey, at the end of the day, this was meant for people to come view the booth, and i bet you it worked. The aftermath is of course this stupid fucking video lol...

[Zulu]

tights and uggs go well together.

[nabs]

watched the whole thing but literally wanted to stop after 30 secs.

[RE-Jo]

i have to watch it when I get home from work!!
If it is as bad as you guys say it is, I hope Jeremy makes fun of it on Top Gear :P

[jbsali]

[Shead]

[AVS_Racing]

Cocaine is a Helleva drug LOL

[mc.]

everytime they say E and V, i can't help but think of the EV1 and i think that actually got more than 40 miles, but then again that car was pure electricity and if it ran out, your screwed.

[TRD Rs200]

i've tried so hard to watch it again, but just cant "what the FUCK is this shit" says it all

someone's getting fired

[3seriesBeeM]

WTF is that. That is supposed to make me want to buy a chevy ?? V is for chevy volt and me HAHAHA somebody was cracked out of their mind when they wrote this song

[Benz_05TSX]

Should've hired me, at least I will put half naked hot chicks in that and showing how electrifying it is to see their titties bounce!!!

[Vspeed]

The village people did it better.

[rcoccultwar]

Personally, marketing in the automobile industry hasn't had any effect on me in recent memory as browsing through revscene over the years has given me what you can call, the principle of charity.
Having watched daytime television ads for a bit for the first time in a while, I have to say marketing on a whole though, has given me a different outlook on life.

With the Volt, you have to say that this type of car, if you will, is still in its infancy. I wouldn't exactly say the Volt is the Little Richard, The Big Bopper, or Chuck Berry of cars. However, a lot of people would say, with parallels, it's off to pretty rough start. (For some reason,Jonathan Gould's "Can't Buy Me Love" still lingers in my psyche)

Looking at the basic's of understanding, from the smallest level of politics to the largest levels, a dichotomy on energy/climate change is apparent. Im just waiting to see if "Big Brother", "Uncle Bob", "the Man", or whatever you want to call it, will "allow" the Volt to be a success without medium or long term consequences.

I think Chevy is in the right direction. Today I drove a little over 40miles and have to say I thought it was a pretty long day of driving.
A few months ago I rented a Malibu with 30 or so km's on it. I was easily on pace for over 30 miles/gallon until I handed the keys over. I still managed around 10km/L for the entire trip. All in all, it was a pretty nice ride. Good work GM!
