Toyota Corolla 50th Anniversary: Miles of Milestones

Corolla’s reliability has been turning miles into milestones for 50 years, so to celebrate our big milestone; we want to share the fun, unexpected and authentic stories that our celebrity partners have experienced through time with the Corolla. In order to showcase the wildly fun, surprisingly meaningful or even just downright silly moments people can experience with their car, we want to tell our celebrity’s real-life Corolla stories in a bigger-than-life kind of way.


    The results were 600M+ impressions, 5.5M+ video views, and 259K engagements through a paid partnership with BuzzFeed and creatively leading and executing a 360 integrated campaign.
