A Cadillac representative commented on the sudden increase in sales after Sooyoung's commercial was revealed to the general public, "Cadillacs have been and still are mainly targeted towards a male audience, thus we have mostly male customers. However, after an advertisement went out featuring Girls' Generation's Sooyoung riding a white XT5, we have experienced a drastic rise in female customers. Already, 50 vehicles are on order."
The rep also mentioned the reason they chose the idol singer to represent their new vehicle. "To be honest, Cadillac has left a strong impression on its old, classic appeal of the past. However, the new Cadillac is changing; the product and brand are becoming more youthful. With that being said, we thought Sooyoung was the perfect choice in expressing a young, energetic, and sophisticated image."
