Timed to coincide with the Canadian International AutoShow in Toronto, and developed by Proximity Canada and BBDO Toronto, Smart Canada has launched a new promotion aiming to concretely demonstrate the small turning radius of its Fortwo coupe. It involves a Fortwo decal appearing on the drums of Toronto cement trucks, essentially turning them into mobile rotating billboards. People who are stuck on Smart cars can track the trucks’ whereabouts on the brand’s Facebook page
