For the 2024 holiday season, Toyota introduced two new advertisements, 'Real Reward' and 'Naughty List,' which premiered during NBCUniversal’s primetime specials. Specifically, 'Real Reward' aired during 'Christmas in Rockefeller Center' on NBC, while 'Naughty List' was unveiled during Telemundo’s 'Navidades en Rockefeller Center.' Both ads featured personalized throw-ins from the show hosts, enhancing their connection with viewers.
In addition to these heartwarming ads, Toyota has partnered with Best Friends Animal Society to support shelter animals across the United States. This collaboration includes "a donation aimed at helping find homes for homeless dogs and cats, with a focus on encouraging adoption and fostering."
Furthermore, Toyota served as the presenting sponsor of 'Navidades en Rockefeller Center,' contributing to its first-ever Spanish-language broadcast on Telemundo. Notably, the 'Real Reward' ad highlights "a young couple in a 2025 Tacoma, while the Hispanic creative celebrates father-son bonding in a 2024 Tundra."
