2. Camry Hybrid

10. Camry Hybrid Automobiles – Hybrid Sedans 10/20 Toyota will develop a campaign targeting young adults who have recently graduated from college and who are buying their first car. The goal is to increase brand loyalty and create an association between Toyota and hybrids. Upper-middle class people who care about the environment. They want a car that is reliable but also appreciate new technology. The buyer is the decision maker of the household. The buyer themselves, or family members of the buyer. The user may have convinced the buyer to buy hybrid technology, or may not be as concerned about driving a hybrid as the user themselves. Goal is to make Toyota be seen as the leader of hybrid technology. Focus on well educated young adults buying their first car, and urge them to change to hybrid technology. Also, focus on the existing well-established reputation of the Camry. The car for your future. -quality -innovative -affordable -reliable -environmentally friendly -long lasting -practical design -leader -customer oriented -quality products
