Scania Unveils 'It's Just Special'
In an evocative new campaign, Scania captures a profound sentiment that resonates with drivers worldwide: a feeling of pride, connection, and belonging. Set against a cinematic backdrop, the campaign follows the story of two brothers in the desert who wait for something intangible but deeply meaningful, perfectly complemented by a cover of Avicii's
Hey Brother, featuring the vocals of Bryan Adams.
This campaign, which launched this week, goes beyond the traditional product features to foster a personal connection with viewers. It encapsulates an emotional experience that is often difficult to articulate yet instantly recognizable to those who are part of the Scania community. Whether it's the quiet confidence a driver possesses after completing a long journey or the unspoken camaraderie shared between two strangers, Scania aims to highlight the human element that defines its brand.
Patrik Thärnå, the Head of Marketing Communications at Scania, remarks, “There's a feeling that's hard to describe, but unmistakable to those who've experienced it. It's in the way drivers talk and the pride they take in every journey. With this campaign, we wanted to capture that feeling and reflect it to the people who already carry it with them.”
The centerpiece of this campaign is a thoughtfully crafted film that portrays the deep bond and unwavering loyalty of truck drivers towards Scania. Viewers will see how driving a Scania vehicle transcends being a mere profession; it becomes an integral part of one’s identity. The narrative artfully combines rich storytelling, a moving soundtrack, and moments of stillness, all designed to convey the profound connection drivers feel towards their vehicles.
Scania's initiative rolls out on various digital platforms, including premium channels such as YouTube, Meta, TikTok, and LinkedIn, making it accessible to a global audience. Additionally, the campaign will feature testimonials and stories from actual members of the Scania community, amplifying the narrative and emotional impact of the brand's message. Viewers can also expect behind-the-scenes content that contributes to the overarching story and deepens audience engagement.
The launch of this campaign is a significant step for Scania, reinforcing its commitment to the community it serves while focusing on the emotional ties it builds with drivers around the world. For those interested in diving deeper into the campaign, visit
