Potential New Concepts

Brief Company

Overview

"At Mercedes-Benz Retail Group, we’re driven by one simple goal: to be the very best at all things Mercedes-Benz" (2013)

A Driving Passion for Our Planet: Go Hybrid

Go hybrid. It's just eco-logical!

New Idea:

Inject engines with more innovation, and less fuel!

Mercedes-Benz

*One of the big intiatives at the moment is to reduce environmental emissions. Hence, Mercedes-Benz should consider developing a hybrid car, ultising new technology. Promotion of the car using a low cost strategy

*In keeping with this they could extend the Mercedes-Benz brand image further by offering other customisation features. I've noted that they have extended to companies like Designo for custom interiors, but maybe go a step further and offer further customerisation meeting customers requests

- Why not team up with Swarovski Crystals or Tiffany and Co?

- Extend their brand into things like vacation packages, hotel stays and endorse the experience of Mercedes-Benz

‘Best or Nothing’ strapline.
