    The TVC shows two Vista D90s driving alongside each other with parasailers, attached to the rear of the car, being lifted in the air as the cars catch speed. The analogy highlights the Vista D90’s powerful 90 PS engine and its claim of being ‘designed to thrill’.

     

    On the rationale behind the campaign, Kartik Smetacek, Group Creative Director, Draftfcb Ulka, said, “The commercial is essentially a demonstration: Of power, of thrill, of the adventurous, adrenaline-fuelled lifestyle that defines the new Tata Motors.”

     

    Amit Sagar, Head, Vista Product Group, said, “The Vista D90 comes as a refreshing option for the thrill-seeking youth of today. The car redefines the category with over a dozen first in class attributes.”
