Brand-led emotional storytelling at the master Toyota level (Power of Vulnerability is unapologetically about feeling, not product), paired with hard-nosed performance/data marketing in the MaaS units (yoxi, iRent, Hotai Pay). Hotai treats Toyota the master brand as a Japan-aligned, Dentsu-served prestige asset, but treats its own non-Toyota businesses (mobility, payments, data) as a separate, modern, contestable marketing portfolio. The company is also moving from premium-EV positioning to aggressive-value-EV positioning on bZ4X, hinting that current creative is being asked to do more commercial heavy lifting.

Pitch now.
WEDGE 1 - MaaS / data ecosystem: Pitch Wu Pin-Tsung's MaaS HQ directly. yoxi vs Uber, iRent vs traditional rental, Hotai Pay, Hotai Point, OpenHub EV charging - this is a 5-product consumer-data flywheel that has no global Toyota-Dentsu obligation. WPP's strength in commerce + CRM + data + Choreograph is the natural fit. Frame it as 'we serve the future-mobility Hotai, Dentsu serves the heritage-Toyota Hotai.'
