What’s super about YOUR brand’?

Based upon the opinions of leading marketing experts, business professionals and British consumers, Superbrands’ eagerly awaited annual league table of the UK’s strongest brands has just been published. Whilst luxury watch brand Rolex was a surprise winner ahead of the likes of Facebook, google and Coca-Cola, it was of course the Automotive brands which were of most interest to WDA.

In October we published Interbrand’s brand equity report (read story here), and how the best performing Automotive brands had seen positive value changes during 2012, with both BMW and VW up 18%, Mercedes up 10%, and Toyota and Ford up 9% and 6% respectively.  Indeed these Automotive giants again performed strongly here, with Mercedes-Benz placing 10th overall in the top 20 consumer brand results, one place ahead of arch rival BMW. Outside of the vehicle manufacturer category, it was tyre giant Michelin which won the General Automotive category, ahead of a number of other qualifying Superbrands from the tyre sector. Notable Automotive brand performers are as follows:
