    • The ADAC MOTORWELT is and will be visibly staged where we reach ADAC members every day: when they go shopping.
    • The eye-catching product displays are located at highly frequented and central points in the store, e.g. in the entrance or checkout area.
    • The touchpoints have been successfully established with more than 10,000 product displays at over 9,000 food retail pick-up locations.
    • With this distribution concept, readers deliberately choose to take the ADAC MOTORWELT with them, which is expected to result in strong interaction with the new magazine.

    ADAC MOTORWELT is only available free of charge to ADAC members on presentation of their membership card.

    ADAC is accompanying the launch with an eye-catching marketing campaign with TV, radio, print, digital and POS measures.
