Although the ad promises, “KATE UPTON WASHES THE NEW MERCEDES CLA” — pause — “IN SLOW MOTION,” that isn’t actually the case. Upton, at best, supervises. The actual washing is undertaken by some dudes in athletic jerseys. Upton might as well be over there checking her email. At one point she seems to be literally doing her nails. This ad is, as the Wall Street Journalpoints out, boring. Try harder next time, Mercedes.
