Toyota is inviting drivers to rediscover adventure with its latest marketing campaign, 'Your Window to the Wild,' celebrating the all-new 2025 Toyota 4Runner. Staying true to its legendary heritage while integrating premium comfort and cutting-edge technology, the redesigned 4Runner is built for those who seek the thrill of exploration – whether navigating city streets or connecting to the awe of the great outdoors.
“This campaign captures the essence of adventure that has defined the Toyota 4Runner for over 40 years,” said Mike Tripp, group vice president of Toyota Marketing. “The 2025 4Runner blends rugged capability with modern innovation, inspiring drivers to embrace the magic of the outdoors.”
Created by Saatchi & Saatchi, the campaign features a 30-second and 15-second CTV spot 'Into the Wild,' as well as a variety of 6-second and 15-second NLV spots including 'Full Screen,' 'Jam Session,' and 'Unsteady Ground,' directed by Peter Thwaites. Each spot captures the spirit of the 4Runner, showcasing its ability to inspire confidence and find adventure at every turn.
In 'Into the Wild,' a father and daughter explore the mountains in their all-new 2025 Toyota 4Runner set to the tune of Lord Huron’s La Belle Fleur Sauvage. Noticing his daughter glued to her tablet, the father decides to change direction, igniting her sense of awe-filled adventure. As the 4Runner conquers rugged terrain, playful forest creatures mirror its spirit of exploration. The daughter is captivated with wide-eyes and engaged with the world around her. The spot closes with them setting up camp under the open sky, fully present and immersed in the wild.
In more feature focused content, the creative continues in that same world, catching these physical manifestations of the awe experienced in the 4Runner while interacting with the vehicle. From a mischievous group of stick and acorn creatures admiring the legendary power rear window and available JBL FLEX portable Bluetooth speaker, to an ancient rock colossus rising from centuries long slumber to catch a glimpse as the 4Runner makes its way over the rocky terrain.
The Hispanic creative campaign, “4Runner Landia,” takes the all-new 2025 4Runner launch to unexpected territory. Blending the excitement of off-road adventure with the dream of land ownership, the campaign invites adventure seeking Latinos to enter a contest for a chance to win an all-new 2025 Toyota 4Runner and a piece of land of their choice to create their ultimate playground. The campaign features a 30-second video, directed by Eric Maldin, starring a charismatic realtor who showcases the stunning views both inside and outside the all-new 4Runner. In addition, a custom real estate listing on realtor.com places the all-new 4Runner in a space where car campaigns rarely venture.
Created by Conill, the campaign includes additional digital and social content promising to inspire those who crave awe-inspiring adventure. The contest runs from April 14 to May 26.
