Putting the pedal to the metal to launch an e-scooter start-up into the fast lane

When Benzina Zero approached Aruga to lead an electrifying new direction for the brand across media and advertising landscapes, our engines fired into high gear. 

The e-scooter start-up charged our creative batteries with its vision for an emissions-free future in on-road transport and a passion for its Italian-inspired fleet of electric vehicles. 

Aruga revved into action to amplify Benzina Zero’s brand voice ahead of launching its new range of all-purpose vehicles. We led the charge with a targeted social media competition to entice interest, strategic PR pitching to generate launch coverage and tailored social content packages to support dealerships.

The results? Supercharged engagement across socials, enthusiastic media coverage, digitally equipped dealerships and one lucky ‘Benzina Zero Hero’ winning an e-scooter for a year.
