New Commercial featuring Spark, Volt, Cruze....and Bobby Orr!

*Sorry if a repost, I couldnt find the info elsewhere*

Those of you in the States probably wont have seen the commercial (unless your picking up TSN on a dish or antenna), but, a new Chevrolet commercial began airing this week on TSN (www.tsn.ca) for the Chevrolet Equinox Million Dollar Shoot Out (https://equinox.tsn.ca/default.aspx).

Ill start by saying, Im sorry! Ive googled for HOURS tonight to find the commercial but to no success

The commercial, filmed on the 7th of October, features hockey legend Bobby Orr being invited by Chevrolet to get a sneek test drive of the new Chevys. In the commercial, Orr drives (or gets to ride along in) a green Chevy Spark, a black Volt, a silver Cruze, as well as a new Camaro and Equinox on a closed track (im assuming Mosport (www.mosport.ca) just outside of Bowmanville, east of Toronto, near GM Canada headquarters in Oshawa).

"Ive owned alot of Chevrolets in my time, and id say, they're back!", exclaims Orr in the commercial.

The Volt and Cruze look absolutly stunning while moving around the track by the way! As said, I have been unable to find the commercial online, but, here is some stills originally tweet'd by GM Canada @ www.twitter.com/GMCanada:

Good find. Some interesting shots of the Spark. Now door handles in the rear doors and dual exhaust. Interesting, interesting

Re: New Commercial featuring Spark, Volt, Cruze....and Bobby Orr!

Very cool! I just can't see Mr. Orr ever wanting to drive the Spark though...
Camaro? Yes... Maybe a Bobby Orr Edition in white and yellow as opposed to the Transformers movie edition would be great for the baby boomers... and me(gen x)!

It says 2012-18(or 19) referring to the model number.

Re: New Commercial featuring Spark, Volt, Cruze....and Bobby Orr!

I'd really like to see the Spark in a different colour than pea green always. Silver, black, red, or an electric blue, would suit it well.

Forget Bruin. How about the greatest defenseman ever. Also the only person that would get votes over Wayne Gretzky as the greatest ever by many who watched him play.

Re: New Commercial featuring Spark, Volt, Cruze....and Bobby Orr!

Spark looks BIGGER than the current Aveo - how in the hell does this slot BELOW it?

Does the Aveo move up since the Cruze is getting bigger?

Re: New Commercial featuring Spark, Volt, Cruze....and Bobby Orr!

DAMN that Volt looks amazing in black. Wow...makes me wonder why GM insists on showing all its cars in the hideous silver, which makes the cheap lower front bumper of the base impala, cobalt, and malibu stick out like a sore thumb. Even the Camaro and Silverado look bad in silver in the commercials.

He gets my vote! (Gretzky used to do Ford commercials )

The Volt does look bad-ass in black.

The Spark is much smaller than the Aveo. You at least get some trunk room in the Aveo!
