The world had no idea what was coming. In ‘stealth mode’ for several years as proprietary electric supercar technology was being developed, Renovo Motors maintained absolute silence…until a hot August at the famed Concours d’Elegance in Monterey, CA.
Through a planned social tease with prominent automotive digital outlet, Jalopnik, the evening before the official launch – the quickest all-electric American supercar took the world by storm in a mere 48 hours. With one-on-one interviews at an exclusive location – the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Bloomberg, Yahoo Autos, Automotive News, Chicago Tribune and more prominent outlets kicked off a whirlwind of 113 feature stories in less than a week – with 60 international media outlets covering the brand’s iconic Coupe vehicle.
With every famous automotive media outlet – from Top Gear to Jay Leno’s Garage – buzzing about the Silicon Valley’s innovator and groundbreaking technology, Renovo’s buzz continued right into the Consumer Electronic Show – where a cross-marketing strategy with technology icon, Nvidia, saw the brand named as one of the “Top 50 Most Influential Brands” at CES across social media (along with 62 feature stories).
