Video: Mercedes-Benz ad features VW’s Piech look-a-like as grim reaper
A new Mercedes-Benz commercial for the 2010 E-Class sedan pokes some fun at Volkswagen AG and its Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Ferdinand Piech.
The commercial shows a look-a-like of Piech playing the role of grim reaper saying “Sorry” to the driver as he puts him in harm’s way. The driver then stops the car showing off the E-Class’s feature where the car increases braking power when it senses an accident, disappointing Piech’s look-a-like.
Of course it’s all fun and games with advertisers taking a shot at each other in Stuttgart.
Hit the jump for the video.
