If you don’t live in Europe and aren’t much of a car aficionado, you probably aren’t familiar with the popular Skoda Fabia.
But, it’s not the car I want you to focus on — it’s the company’s slick attention test.
To convince people that the vehicle is one-of-a-kind, the company released a mind-boggling and brilliant commercial. It may not be as funny as this TurboTax one, or as inspiring as Nike’s Find Your Greatness ad, but I’m sure it will leave many people flabbergasted.
“To test just how much attention the attention-stealing design of the new Skoda Fabia actually steals, we left one parked on this ordinary road in West London,” the voiceover in the commercial says. “We wanted to see if its sharp crystalline shapes, bold lines, and lower, wider profile would attract the desired level of attention.”
By the end of the commercial, many of you will probably have failed the attention test: While the voiceover makes you pay attention to the blue hatchback, it's easy to overlook some, or all, of the changes! And some of them are big, seemingly obvious ones.
Make sure to watch the commercial below first and then look at some of the changes outlined underneath. They sure fooled me!
Please SHARE if you are impressed with this attention test.
