TMC slogan competition

[BBHighway]

Go Electric!

(Once you go electric, you'll never go back!)

 

[xcelero.ii]

There have been some really good ones but I'll just throw some of mine into the 'pot'.


Drive fast. Live green.

Electric nirvana starts here.

Freedom of motion.

It's okay to be jealous.

What'd you expect? A toaster?

Electric just got sexy.

Gas, meet Electric.

Yes. It's that fast!

Say goodbye to combustion.

Electric is the new black.

It's quiet. Isn't it?

OK, mostly... Although:
HD DVD Gets Red Laser Format

I can understand your confusion here, but these weren't actual HD DVD disks. Just standard recordable DVD media with HD content on them. Blu-ray also has such "red laser" formats (e.g. BD9, AVCHD, etc.).

Now how about we stay on topic.


That's my second slogan submission:

Stay on topic.

• The electric car is coming - quicker than you think
• All torque, all action
• Drive electric - everything else is just hot air
• Tesla Roadster: Put the top down and feel the wind of change
• Tesla Motors: Making Porsche call 911 since 2008
• Model S: 5 seats - 4 cents a mile - 3 hundred miles range - 2x more efficient than gas - 1 damn sexy car*
• Model S: The revolution starts 2011
• Tesla Roadster: Just the warning shot
• The electric car - back and on a charge

* 0 emissions optional :smile:

the future is electric

The Aerovironment team used that in place of a license plate on the Impact prototype of the EV-1, but the GM team removed it because, they said, it was too strong a statement.

the future is electric

Good but pretty heavily used. Chris pained signs it on DVDs as does this site electriccarz.co.uk

 

[Bud]

the future isn't what it used to be

"the future is electric

The Aerovironment team used that in place of a license plate on the Impact prototype of the EV-1, but the GM team removed it because, they said, it was too strong a statement."

I distinctly remember Chelsea Sexton telling me that GM used to use the, "the future is electric" slogan.

She signed a movie - with not only her name but also that slogan - and I asked where she got the slogan. She said she got it from GM.




Anyways....whatever catchphrase the forum comes up with, I think it would be good to follow it up with good ol' "the future is electric."

 

[TEG]

Hmm... Noticed this:

...a long term Electric Vehicle cooperation comes the Japanese marques new company slogan, or tag as they call it. Mitsubishi will from this summer on promote themselves with 'Drive@Earth', first in Japan only but the rest of the world will follow. Sometime in 2009 Mitsubishi will launch their i MiEV electric car in Japan.

 

[TEG]

• "Be change"

 

[Bud]

the future is now, and it's electric

Some sort of Roadster image would be nice along with that.

The Impact rear plate story is in The Car That Could, p 25 of my hardcover. It took place in late 1989.

"Drive Another Way"

 

[bobw]

It just - goes.

"Clean, Green and really, really Mean..." :biggrin:

TMC Slogan idea

I think we need a phrase that sums up why this forum was created and what we are about, in particular what we talk about.

I came up with:

From the mind of a genius to the future of motoring

As in the AC electric motor from the mind of Nicola Tesla to the future of motoring which is Tesla Motors and other EV's.

 

[bobw]

An Electric Revolution

or, more political

The Revolution will be Electrified

 

[TEG]

Summarizing my faves (some are mine, but not all):

• The Revolution will be Electrified (nod to Gil Scott-Heron)
• Plug-In, Power-Up, Peel-Out (nod to Timothy Leary)
• Plug in, Turn on, Go Fast (variation of the above)
• The electric car is coming - quicker than you think
• Say goodbye to combustion
• EVs are back for good
• Rowdy environmentalism at play
• Transportation transformed

 

[vfx]

[TEG]

"Burn Rubber, Not Oil"
Robin White

Tesla used a variation of that a while back on their web site:

How about:

• "Infinite MPG"

• "Excited electrons instead of poisonous hydrocarbons!"
