At 0.38 you can see the chevrolet front with the chrome bar, but on the truck at 1.45 there is no chrome bar and there is a Daewoo logo (the orignal maker, name: Dawwoo Kalos) on the car.
How it should've opened: "In a world where all cars are Chevrolets..."
Besides that fact, I think Bay nailed it with this commercial; whenever I'm driving an Aveo I just want to beat the hell out of it and drop it on some car carrier so I'd never have to see it ever again!

Dear Jim, Ive been reading comments by Dennis Woodruff on your site met him in Hollywood very nice guy. I think you should give him a chance to be friends. Hes really funny guy and reminds me of you without the funny faces. You should give him a shot you guys would really make some entertaining movies. DEnnis is a real artist. I could visualize you riding in one of his art cars. Best Wishes hope you read this message admirere j
wow that was entertaining! or perhaps I was positively influenced to watch unti lthe end cuz of monicannabella' comment.....haha random plane lands on the truck! xD
Nice commercial; and because it was a commercial, the staccato edits, restless camera, overworked dolly and smoke machine were A.OK.
Who let this ADD suffering half-wit loose on movies, though? If people just like watching crap blow up for 2 hours, why hasn't someone given a couple of action franchises to the Mythbusters team?
On another note, having owned an SSR briefly, I can confirm that it's rubbish.
Good god, that was ridiculous... and awkward... and ridiculous.
The pacing is particularly herky-jerky and difficult to put up with: buildup-cheesy cinematic trick-anticlimax-buildup-cheesy cinematic trick-anticlimax-rinse-lather-repeat...
The SSR was introduced for its market debut in a 60 second television advertisement that first appeared on New Year's Eve 2003, and featured six yet to be introduced cars and trucks boarding a car carrier as it traversed the United States. It featured the Aveo descending the Twin Peaks of San Francisco and making an airborne leap before boarding the car carrier the yellow SSR boarding the carrier in reverse while the carrier is traveling down a desert highway.
Hahaha this has Bay written all over it. The camera angles. The freaking shaky cam at times. The Sunset! The lighting. The color correction. The epic high speed motion of all the cars. He really does demand things to be awesome, and this time he didn't even have to use any explosions.
Btw, this commercial would look epic if it was a scene in a movie.
Probably one of the best commercials ever, and definitely one of my favorites. The SSR was amazing - it's a shame that it came to such an abrupt end after a short life. A little too DeLorean-like.
This was probably one of the best commercials for Chevy, definately one of my favorites. I never saw the full one with the Aveo jump, I would have loved to see the landing. Mine doesnt cease to amaze me.
I was very surprised the SSR did not make it...Chevy stopped it in what...2006? It was a nice car/truck. lol. The song is a remake of Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride" but I have yet to find that actual remix of the song.
Given that Bay used to do commercials before doing movies, and that this is EXACTLY his style (minus the explosions), I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he actually directed this.
i was expecting some thing spectacular like a corvette to drive to the center of the earth and plant a bomb and destroy the world come on michael bay pick it up you only blew up ejypt
well, actually, michael bay likes to shoot real stuff. more real stuff. thats his thing. but part of transformers he has to do explosions, and stuff like that, so what?
I seriously half expected the semi was going to smash against the low ridder, which would in turn slam against the side of the semi. Everyone pulls out a gun. Bullets ricochet everywhere. A random helicopter flies over the action. The semi then shoots a rocket and the low rider flies up in a ball of fire. Then a shot of the rider flipping across the asphalt, sparks flying. But no...he let us all down.
Can't be directed by Michael Bay. Nothing exploded.

There is a mistake with the aveo.
