Less than a month after airing this commercial featuring Richard Gere driving the new Fiat Delta from Hollywood to Tibet, Italian automaker Fiat has been forced to withdraw the ad, and issue a statement extending its "apologies to the Government of the People's Republic of China and to the Chinese people". Readers of this blog (a group which no doubt excludes anyone from Fiat or their agency) will be aware that Richard Gere is a vocal proponent of Tibetan autonomy/independence . Earlier this month, when Fiat's Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne first showed the ad to journalists, he was reported to have said in no uncertain terms: "I obviously like it." Well, apparently, the launch of the Delta was carefully timed to coincide with June 4 , so yes, we may be reading too much into all of this, but there's no doubt whoever masterminded this whole campaign is a genius . UPDATE: Tim Johnson of China Rises informs us that the ad will continue to run in Italy , and be introduced to other European countries. Now it gets exciting.

Fiat apologizes to China for Richard Gere commercial - Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/06/20/fiat-apologizes-to-china-for-richard-Gere-commercial/?icid=100214839x1204427055x1200194127) According to (http://www.autospectator.com/cars/lancia/0041928-advertising-campaign-lancia-delta-launch) Olivier Francois, Chief Executive Officer of Lancia, Richard Gere was chosen for a recent ad for the Lancia Delta because he "is not merely a fine actor; not merely one of the most famous men in the world. He is a man with a great difference: the ability to combine talent, fame and style with great character. I'm talking about his commitment to peace." That affinity for peace stretches especially towards the people of Tibet, a people who's autonomy from China Gere supports. This commercial, which you can watch after the break, features Gere driving a new Lancia Delta from Hollywood to Tibet in just 30 seconds and aired in Italy. After reports of the commercial appeared in Chinese newspapers, China was apparently none too happy about it. Fiat has decided to apologize, with a company spokesman saying, "Fiat Group extends its apologies to the Government of the People's Republic of China and to the Chinese people." Our opinion? Gere's alright in Pretty Woman, but not much else after that. Apologies are usually pretty lame, but we'd appreciate one for Gere's horrible singing in Chicago as long as they are being handed out so freely. And how 'bout o ...

As the Olympic Games in China approach (08/08/08, for those of you who've forgotten), and the number of Free Tibet protests increase, Fiat (parent company of the brand Lancia), with the help of Marcel Los Angeles, created a new TV ad Lancia Delta that uses the controversial image of Richard Gere. In the ad, we follow the movie star as he drives his new car out of the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. We are still with him as he drives right onto the snowy Himalayas, surrounded by prayer (...) - Blog / Automotive , Entertainment , Asia , Europe , USA & Canada , Politics & Public Interest , Buzz Marketing , Tv Advertising ...
