Hosted by Carolina Reynoso, the video follows Lupé, Adi, and Nelson as they embark on a series of playful challenges designed to test their creativity, energy, and family-favorite status. From tackling an inflatable obstacle course and competing in a burrito-making contest to showing off their salsa dancing skills, the trio embraces their inner child while traveling between activities in the all-new Toyota RAV4. Created in collaboration with Pero Like, BuzzFeed Studios’ LatinX-focused brand, the campaign highlights the spirit of adventure, connection, and fun that defines the tía and tío family relationships while naturally integrating the versatility and personality of the Toyota RAV4 throughout the experience. "Pero Like has always celebrated the humor, traditions, and shared experiences that resonate across LatinX communities," said Richard Alan Reid, President of BuzzFeed Studios. "The partnership with the all-new Toyota RAV4 and Pero Like allowed us to tell a joyful, relatable story that puts family, fun, and adventure at the center of the experience." Andrew George, senior analyst, Toyota Marketing at Toyota, shared: "The Latino community has a unique ability to find joy in everyday moments. Through our partnership with Pero Like, we're celebrating that spirit by bringing culture, family and fun together in a way that highlights how the all-new Toyota RAV4 is built for the adventures that bring us closer."
