The inspiring marketing project celebrates the company's 70th anniversary. It includes a three-minute video, produced by Wonder Screen for Spark44, that touches upon the exciting road trip which took place in 1957 and lasted 14 months. The content is of particular significance since, during their around-the-world journey, Bateman and Foster were driving a [custom-built Land Rover Series 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/land-rover-series-2), aptly nicknamed the 'Grizzly Torque.' The video is a combination of archival and modern footage. The fact that this trip took the two Canadians 60,000 kilometers through 19 countries on four continents is truly breath-taking and the excitement of the iconic around-the-world journey will truly inject some wanderlust value into the Land Rover brand. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Around-the-world Journeys:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative travel experiences that appeal to adventurous consumers seeking unique global exploration. - **Video Campaigns:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create immersive and visually stunning video campaigns to engage and inspire customers, building emotional connections with the brand. - **Branding and Marketing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Embrace storytelling and nostalgia to create impactful marketing projects that celebrate brand heritage and resonate with consumers. ### Who This Affects Most - **Automotive:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop eco-friendly and durable vehicles for long-distance travel, catering to the growing demand for sustainable transportation options. - **Travel and Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create curated travel experiences that incorporate unique historical elements, appealing to customers seeking authentic and memorable adventures. - **Advertising and Media:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore innovative storytelling techniques and formats, such as combining archival and modern footage, to capture audience attention and enhance brand narratives. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Travel-inspired Brand Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/road-and-beyond.md) - [Adventure-Inspired Auto Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/made-for-what-youre-made-of.md) - [Travel Lifestyle Brand Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-changed-me.md) - [Collaborative Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monos-x-brooklyn-coach-works.md) - [Creative Auto Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-capri.md) - [Transformative Luxury Voyage Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ritzcarlton-yacht-collections.md) - [History-Centric Advertisements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-ontario-museum.md) - [Cinematic Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinematic-travel-campaign.md) - [Culturally-Inspired Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-travel-campaign.md)
