BIG LOVE Brand Campaign.
The ‘BIG LOVE’ brand campaign is a true reflection of MINI and its individuality. It isn’t just a slogan or a mantra; it’s a mindset. An attitude to welcome the world with an open heart and hit the road with an open mind. It’s a belief that there’s beauty in individuality and richness in diversity. MINI has always embraced difference. Since 1959, owners saw their MINI as an extension of their own unique selves. They customized it to reflect their personal style. They turned it into a symbol of individuality and self-expression. They defied the idea that a car is just a car, and in turn, defined MINI. The new BIG LOVE brand campaign will be live across print, digital, online and at MINI Showrooms.
