Kate Upton is starring in a Super Bowl commercial for Mercedes-Benz. Taking advantage of the reality that the Super Bowl is arguably more about the game of advertising than football these days, Mercedes Benz is betting big this year with the 20-year-old model.

With millions glued to their television sets, companies like Mercedes know that they will have a wide audience to whom they can potentially sell their products.

The heading, “Kate Upton Washes the All-New Mercedes-Benz CLA in Slow Motion,” sounds provocative, but is really just a tease. Wearing a tank top and shorts, Upton stands to the side as a group of football players wash her car for her.
