Christmas is just around the corner, and while we’re all looking forward to the celebrations ahead, there’s something special about looking back to spark that festive feeling.
Cars are the unsung heroes of this season, quietly helping us make memories as they carry the weight of our winter plans.
So, to celebrate their role in the holidays, we’re taking a nostalgic look at some classic Christmas car ads to get you fully in the festive spirit.
1956 Cadillac
Cadillac are an American car manufacturer that has had their premium cars on the roads since the early 1900s.
They’ve always been a classy brand that values luxury and performance, which is reflected in their countless generations of elegant models.
This vintage advert from Cadillac displays their 1956 Cadillac Coupe de Ville parked outside a home as a Christmas gift from a man to his wife.
If you look close enough, the man in this ad looks eerily similar to actor Cary Grant, perhaps done intentionally to give that extra classy look.
This is topped off by a nice slogan “The Christmas They’ll Never Forget!” – a perfect finishing touch for an advert that’s since made a long-lasting impression.
