Laura McQuarrie — June 14, 2014 — Autos
There are a lot of autos out there that claim to have a green car design, but this clever Honda ad shows that its the greenest of them all.
With the Honda Accord Hybrid being recognized with a Canadian Green Car Award 2014, this ad ranks paint colors, staring with a light green shade called "Recycled Plastic." From here, each of the hues get a little darker with increasingly silly paint chip names like "Kale Milkshake," "Vegan Retreat" and "Hemp Pyjamas." At the very bottom is the greenest of all the greens, the Honda Accord Hybrid. The ad by Grip Limited is simple, effective and conveys its message with a good dose of humor too.
