Through our friend at SEAT Lebanon Mr. Hadi Sidaoui, SEAT has replied to the provocative video ad the we published yesterday. Image above and Link Here.
SEAT clarified their position and here is what they had to say.
Dear all,
I guess some of you are already aware of a video publication in Russia, consisting on an almost naked girl dancing around a Leon at a SEAT dealer.
After checking it with our Marketing colleagues, we have found out that the video was produced by a local dealer owner without the permission of SEAT Russia or SEAT Headquarters. Therefore, the company has not been involved at all in the production or distribution of this material, that obviously does not match at all with our values and communications strategy.
Please be very clear on this subject if journalists in your countries ask about it and let us know if you have further questions.
Claudia Schneider
Head of International Communications
We would like to thank SEAT for their professionalism.
