Massive augmented reality campaign from Toyota and agency Saatchi & Saatchi to promote the new Auris hybrid. The result, of course, is the "cleanest test drive ever."

In my estimation, this even goes beyond BMW's Z4 AR effort in terms of the test drive element and virability - which is saying a lot.

In my new book, THE ON-DEMAND BRAND (available everywhere books are sold), I look at how companies are capitalizing on augmented reality to create highly immersive brand experiences - including BMW, Doritos, General Electric, Papa Murphy's, Coca-Cola, Burger King and more.

Considering the Auris doesn't come out until September, this looks like a great way for Toyota to enable consumers to take a test drive before the car is even available.
