There are interesting ways to celebrate Independence Day, and this is certainly quite special
In a rather intriguing way to commemorate India’s Independence Day, Toyota came up with a life-sized Billboard of the Fortuner SUV. We know that Fortuner is the most successful 7-seat off-roading SUV in the country. It has been attracting buyers for close to 2 decades now. In fact, after the departure of Ford Endeavour from India, there hasn’t really been another worthy competitor for the Fortuner. Hence, today we see the Fortuner on sale in multiple avatars. For now, let us take a look at the details of the latest physical advertisement from Toyota.
Life-sized Toyota Fortuner Billboard
This post stems from unitedtoyota on Instagram. The visuals capture a rather interesting phenomenon. Someone driving during the night on a highway recorded a ginormous billboard with a life-sized Toyota Fortuner positioned on it. Furthermore, the SUV is placed vertically, and its headlamps project the Indian flag. The board informs that United Toyota is responsible for this occurrence on the occasion of the 79th Independence Day of India. The caption reads, “On this Independence Day, we honour the spirit of a nation that keeps moving forward.
From the first mile to the last, United Toyota is proud to be part of India’s road to progress.”
