At the beginning of the year, people are always eager to make resolutions and set new goals to achieve, and [Honda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-courage) is capitalizing on this consumer attitude with the Honda 'Leap List' campaign, which promotes the Honda [CR-V](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2023-cr-v).

The Honda 'Leap List' campaign, developed by RPA, encourages people to reach certain goals *before* they have to reach other goals. You create a list -- a 'Leap List' -- of things you want to do (say, exploring caves) before you have to do other, more responsible things (such as starting a family). Targeted at young, hip and adventurous but family-oriented individuals, the campaign also lets participants enter a contest to win a Honda CR-V after they have created their Leap Lists, and it focuses on how a CR-V can help them achieve their goals.

As Honda's brand manager Tom Peyton describes, "The ‘Leap List’ campaign captures CR-V’s adaptability as the perfect vehicle for a wide range of life phases whether road-tripping with friends or taking the family on an impromptu outing.”
