Rahul Sharma, Associate Creative Director at Serviceplan ExperienceSaudi Arabia’s automotive market has reached an inflection point. Product availability, competitive pricing and feature-led messaging, once reliable drivers of growth, are no longer enough to secure brand preference. As the market matures and consumer choice expands, brands are being held to a higher standard: cultural relevance.
This shift is being driven by a younger, more discerning audience. One, that expects brands to understand the rhythms of everyday life in the Kingdom, not simply appear during moments of celebration. Visibility alone is no longer a proxy for relevance. What matters now is participation.
At the centre of this evolution is storytelling, but not in its traditional advertising
