Controversy Erupts As Innoson Debuts Electric Car (Video)

Nigerians have taken to their social media spaces to drag the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of Innoson Vehicles over the advert promoting the company’s first electric car.

According to Nnewi City on X, the recently launched electric car is the first made in Nigeria electric vehicle. It was produced by Innoson Vehicles in its manufacturing plant in Nnewi, Anambra State.

The advert for the electric car has, however, been trailed with controversy with many Nigerians depicting the advert as amateurish with many calling for the head of Innoson Vehicles public relations officer.

In the video advert, a man was seen on a phone call, approaching the brand new, yellow coloured electric car for a test drive.

However, Nigerians didn’t seem pleased with the video advert which is now trending on social media.

See some reactions gathered by GWG.ng from netizens on X:

@Ofochebe asked, “How are you on phone and driving at the same time…on a motor advert? @innosonvehicles call your “PR” man to order and pull this advert down !!!

@BartEzeonu said, “Employ a marketing strategist, stop diminishing your company.”

@Dat igbo said, “@innosonvehicles please I beg u, you need someone with great marketing skills that has crazy ideas This is not how to roll out such a car, I know In the East we rarely believe in the power of quality adverts but please try one. This is too poor a way to showcase a car.”

@okoliosita1 said, “This video should be withdrawn and a more appropriate one done for replacement. Answering call while driving is wrong and is not good for business.”

@Chief_August…. advise, “Please don’t ever use this childish guy for car adverts again.

1. Driving without a seat belt

2. Driving while making phone calls.

3. Looking through the rare glass instead of side mirrors while reversing.

4. Rough handling the car door.

I rate him 2/10 for poor showmanship.”

@chiekwokam said, “Another advice, Employ someone that has traveled out to carry out these duties, you’re actually trying to sell a global acceptable brand.”

 @TT__Spark said, “Dey should sack this their PR immediately. He doesn’t have class at all, and lack what it takes to present the company products in a more professional manner. He should go and watch BYD unveiling.”
