[Western Music Collection] Compilation of Car Commercial Songs [2026]

When it comes to car commercials, there’s a wide range of music—stylish, cool tracks you’d hear in sedan or sports car ads, and fun, upbeat songs for family-oriented cars! Because of that, many viewers find themselves wondering, “Whose song is that?” after watching a commercial, and it often becomes a hot topic online.

In this article, we’ll showcase a selection of songs used in car commercials by various automakers, with a special focus on Western music.

First, we’ll introduce particularly popular tracks regardless of manufacturer, and then list them by brand.

From signature hits by popular artists to covers of timeless classics, car commercials feature a variety of songs, so take this opportunity to give them a careful listen.

Mercedes-Benz (1–10)

EQ「Magical Garage」

Original songGeorg von dem Bussche

Original songGeorg von dem Bussche

The commercial “Magical Garage” features a near-futuristic garage, as suggested by the title, and showcases the impressive performance of the electric vehicle inside it.

The original jazz track expresses the protagonist’s sense of anticipation as the performance is introduced.

The trumpet and drums seem to mirror a quickening heartbeat.

Also, pay attention to the moment about 15 seconds from the end when the tempo slows down briefly, then surges forward all at once—it’s a particularly satisfying shift.

E63「Sound With Power」

Tidal WaveSub Focus ft. Alpines

The track used in the Mercedes-Benz E63 “Sound With Power” commercial.

It’s a collaboration between British DJ and producer Sub Focus and the London duo Alpines, released in 2012.

It features punchy drum sounds.

Skier

The Skier commercial uses the song “Windowlicker.” It’s a track released in 1999 by the British musician Aphex Twin.

It blends chill electronic music with sampled breaths and voices from both women and men.

Toward the end, the mood of the melody shifts dramatically, and the male voice becomes distant, deeper, and lower.

Check out the music video as well to see what kind of message might be embedded in it.

BMW(1〜10)

BMW 8 Series: “BMW’s new era of luxury takes off — the debut of the 8 Series.”

I’m AliveDon Fardon

That quintessentially ’60s, psychedelic, sound-driven garage soul is always so cool and stylish whenever you hear it.

The very choice to use a track like this for a BMW 8 Series commercial—despite it being a sports coupe that prioritizes athleticism and performance while also embodying a luxurious elegance—is delightfully savvy.

Originally, it was a song by American R&B singer Johnny Thunder, active in the ’60s, and it was covered by British pop singer Don Fardon and released in 1969.

Highly recommended for fans of rare groove!

The song that played in the commercial for “BMW Approved Used Cars BMW Premium Selection Official Film 3” has striking claps and a light, pleasant groove! It’s “Mon amour” by French artist Fleur Offwood, included on her 2015 album “24 bras.” With its stylish vibe and skip-worthy rhythm, it’s the kind of track that would put you in a great mood if you heard it while out shopping on a day off!

New BMW 3 Series Sedan

In the commercial for the new 2019 BMW 3 Series Sedan, Denise Lloyd’s “Nevermind” is used as the background music.

He is a singer from Israel, and while staying in Thailand he devoted himself to songwriting, producing many tracks there that became hits.

The concept of the 3 Series with its cutting-edge features, the contemporary song, and the overall feel of the commercial are a perfect match.
