Carpooling with Cleatus Co-Branded Spot

GMC and FOX Sports kicked off their newly elevated partnership by creating a co-branded commercial featuring the 2023 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate.

The commercial, starring FOX NFL Lead Analyst Greg Olsen and FOX Sports’ robot mascot Cleatus, showcased the luxury SUV’s design, spacious interior, and advanced technological features. Cleatus’ appearance in the ad was enhanced using custom computer-generated graphics created by FOX NFL’s production team. The commercial was distributed on multiple FOX platforms, including FBC, FS1, and FOX Sports social channels, coinciding with the release of the Yukon Denali Ultimate in the fall of 2022. As a premium partner of FOX NFL Sunday, GMC was able to use this unique content opportunity to extend its reach and generate interest in the new vehicle.

This initiative provided fans with additional opportunities to engage with their favorite athletes in a format that involved quick, lively Q&A sessions where each sports personality discussed a wide range of captivating topics from memorable football moments to popular local restaurants.
