NFL quarterback Peyton Manning will star in a new television spot for the Buick Verano compact luxury sedan.
In addition to promoting the Verano, which is Buick’s first compact car in many years, the ad is part of a long-term strategy to give Buick — once a brand for senior citizens — a more youthful image.
In the spot, which debuts tonight during the ESPY awards on ESPN, Manning uses his play-calling skills to operate the car’s voice-activated controls and turn-by-turn navigation system.
“It’s definitely easier to call audibles in the Verano as opposed to the line of scrimmage,” Manning said. “After I call audibles in the Verano, I don’t get hit in the back.”
With this 30-second ad, Manning joins a lineup that includes model Marisa Miller, actor Ving Rhames, and basketball star Shaquille O’Neal in a series of Buick commercials. The spots use each celebrity’s lifestyle to highlight its vehicles’ features.
