We compile a list of innovative Corona virus awareness material from automobile manufacturers.
Corona virus is a real and present danger that has to be curbed first before it can be eliminated altogether. By staying at home, we help flatten the curve of infection and numerous people are sharing material on social media that help spread awareness for this action and its benefits. Our beloved automobile manufacturers have also lent a helping hand to this effort. Here is what some manufacturers’ Twitter handles have been up to.
Audi
Audi have been frequently tweeting and spreading awareness about staying at home and leaving the car parked for now. Among these tweets, there are a few that stand out for their creativity and presence of mind. We liked their Four Rings Challenge best. In this challenge Audi India have invited their fans to get creative by recreating the Audi symbol using household items. Nice way to kill some time during the Corona virus lockdown.

BMW
BMW have been busy creating content for awareness that also feature their cars. From a collection of material on their Twitter, we liked this fast-paced video the best. BMW claim that it is a hand-washing timer. Well, if you follow that timer to the T, your hands will be as clean as they can be and there will be no room for the Corona virus.
