Mercedes-Benz vice president of marketing Bettina Fetzer said in a statement that working with The Weeknd on the official video was "inspiring and gave us lots of new and creative impetus. With The Weeknd as the creative director and performer we are addressing young and digital target groups to a greater extent-a perfect combination for this unique Mercedes moment on the road to an electric future".
The video depicts various actions performed by the singer amid a story inspired by the films Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Joker, and Casino.
The Weeknd loved the Mercedes SUV so much that he actually bought the vehicle after the filming ended.
The mysterious woman at the club was played by a Japanese actress Miki Hamano.
Production was closed because one of the crew members was arrested whilst shooting.
