The electric vehicle (EV) charger company is
airing its first-ever commercial in the U.S. featuring a lightning
strike survivor who is afraid of electricity, except when using his
Wallbox
According to a study by the University of
California, an increase of one degree Celsius (1.8 degree
Fahrenheit) in the average temperature increases the frequency of
lightning strikes by 12%. The average temperature across the globe
in 2020 increased by 0.98 of a degree Celsius (1.76 degree F),
therefore, we’re on track to see more sparks fly – and, no, not the
kind that you may feel when meeting your significant other. But can
electricity help reduce lightning strikes? Transitioning to an
electric vehicle can be a way to successfully reduce your impact on
global warming, and Wallbox can help ease the transition from a
gas-guzzler to an electric vehicle by providing a simple, at-home
charging solution.

Don’t be afraid to embrace electricity, says Wallbox (NYSE:WBX),
a leading provider of electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy
management solutions worldwide. The brand shares the first peek of
its Super Bowl LVI commercial set to air during the game on
February 13, 2022. The commercial features Seth Thomas, a lightning
strike survivor from Durham, North Carolina, who, despite his
run-in with electricity, uses Wallbox to charge his electric
vehicle based on its safety record, ease of use and environmental
friendliness. If Seth can do it, so can you.
“EV adoption is accelerating in the U.S., and studies show that
new EV drivers primarily charge their cars at home. As a global
leader in home charging solutions - Wallbox has the hardware and
software solutions designed to simplify the transition for
Americans,” says Barbara Calixto, Chief Marketing Officer of
Wallbox. “We are thrilled to debut our first commercial in the U.S.
during the biggest annual game – Super Bowl LVI – while showing how
seamlessly Wallbox chargers can fit into drivers' daily lives, even
for those with electrophobia."
The 15-second Super Bowl commercial is part of an extensive
marketing campaign Wallbox is activating in the U.S. and four key
European markets; the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden. The
campaign, created by DAVID Madrid and DAVID Buenos Aires, will kick
off in the U.S. on Feb 4th and peak on February 13, 2022, when the
15” spot airs during the second quarter of Super Bowl LVI.
