“The digital inhabitants get higher “happiness” levels when players add a Leaf or a charging station to the cities, said Vinay Shahani, Nissan’s U.S. director of marketing communications. The goal is to put positive im<ages of the brand in young consumers’ minds when they are in their teens and 20s so they gravitate toward Nissan models when they get into the auto market in their 30s.”

LAMBORGHINI MAGAZINE

http://www.gokd.net/lamborghini10-612.html

@FrankDelmelle

“Wie die Marke Lamborghini bietet auch das Lamborghini Magazin authentische Markenerlebnisse, geprägt von den drei Attributen „extrem“, “kompromisslos“ und „italienisch“. Dabei ist jede Ausgabe als solitäres Kunstwerk angelegt. Eine zentrale Idee als Kristallisationspunkt für den von Ausgabe zu Ausgabe wechselnden monothematischen Ansatz, dazu überraschende und mutige Perspektivwechsel, mitunter auch begleitet von scharfen Kontrasten und harten Provokationen. Ein anspruchsvolles Autorenmagazin mit Ecken und Kanten. "Alles integriert in eine multimediale Konzeption mit eigenem Internetauftritt.” (www.lamborghini.com).
