The Skoda ad is funny...nothing (well, almost nothing) could have made me own an AMC Pacer now or back when they were new.
 
Sometimes it is difficult to understand advertising, an advertising image is supposed to make you understand a story, a desire, a need, a surprise, ... something that provokes interest in what is offered, and then the desire to acquire it

Sometimes curious things have happened with cars, they have been exhibited alone, in a setting, without a setting, with people, with animals, and above all with women

The connection between a vehicle and a woman has been quite recurrent,

but the clichés are repeated, they are boring, and you have to look for new images that surprise, this leads the photographer to propose different scenes, and sometimes things get out of hand...

After checking out the obvious, note there is no exhaust pipe. This must be an electric conversion. The rear bumper is the 1973 2.5 MPH USA style.

interesting, well spotted

i would say that cropping the tyres of a car in a picture is similar to crop people‘s feet, no good

all things considered there are also other options…
exhaust cutout deleted by photo editing software to greenwash the iconic image, because fashion does not pollute
alternative position of exhaust

must carry on an investigation, there were more pics of that session
 
The investigation is done. The car Gigi Hadid is sitting on has an exhaust, and like everything in fashion and models, it is photoshopped. The car has a Petri steering wheel and a variant of Alpina rims I think, tan interior. Chances are the clock does not work.
At least they did not have to pull the ad, like her sister Bella with the Adidas faux pas...
 
Which ad has Gigi? I don't recognize her even though she and her mother Bella? live a couple of miles from me on their "Farm" We see them in the supermarket all the time, Right!!

It's an old Bucks County farm with a beautiful 18th century stone house you can no longer see from the road. They have poured a couple of million into it.

The first ad in the original post. I didn’t recognize her either.
Next time you see her at the local market, put in a good word for me Steve ;)
