RAM

Country / Region

United States

Ram faces an increasingly competitive environment where expectations among new vehicle buyers remain exceptionally high, making value perception a key driver of purchase decisions. The "Never Stop Being American" campaign not only drives brand distinction by doubling down on the brand’s unmistakable heritage and identity, but also resonates deeply by transforming a cultural tension into a unifying force: It reminds audiences of the pride and shared ethos that binds us together as Americans.



The spot delivered emotional storytelling on TV, while short-form digital and social content highlighted Ram’s powertrain diversity and class-leading features in ways optimized for platform consumption. Reddit executions sparked community engagement, framing content within category discussions, while organic and press efforts reinforced brand values and generated pride among loyalists.



The launch was met with immediate success. Organic views quickly approached 500K (452,475) within launch week. Earned press added scale, generating over 124.9M impressions within days. On TV, the campaign delivered 280.5M impressions with a 15.4% share of voice, and more than 351.6M impressions among adults 18+. Effectiveness measures outperformed category norms, with an iSpot Attention Index of 123 vs. 103 truck segment average.



Collectively, the campaign not only exceeded awareness and engagement goals but also delivered measurable business impact—including MORE THAN 10,000 HEMI V-8 orders IN THE FIRST 24 hours of announcement.
