April 2026 is final. Numbers above reflect the complete month — 19 IG + 19 FB posts published Apr 1–30. May 2026 closed May 31 — May analytics will appear here once the Meta Business Suite May export is pulled.
Combined Platform Overview — May 1, 2025 to Apr 17, 2026
7.03M views · 2.45M reach · 9.56% engagement. Reels drive 72.4% of all likes and 91.5% of all new follows despite being only 22.0% of posts.
Facebook — Reach & Recruiting Engine
2.00M views · 1.27M reach · 19.4K link clicks. Videos are the top inventory format — 46 posts averaging 15.1K views each, topped by the 488 GTB at 413K. Hiring posts separately pulled 640K views + 4,437 application clicks, confirming FB's dual role as reach amplifier and primary recruiting channel.
The ZR1 reel is the period's massive outlier — 869K views, 23× the average reel, and drove 9,411 new follows on its own (27% of all IG follows over 11 months). Performance builds (GT-R, ZR1) outperform stock exotics for reach on IG — the audience wants horsepower stories, not just badges. Every reel here is a vehicle shoot; services and event reels excluded for clean inventory-to-performance attribution.
Top Performing Facebook Content — May 1, 2025 – Apr 17, 2026
The 488 GTB video is the single biggest piece of content on either platform — 413K views, 198K reach, 4× the top IG reel. Facebook's strength is reach on cinematic vehicle videos, not engagement. Ranking filters out recruiting posts to surface inventory and brand content only.

Video Volume Correlation — Key Performance Driver
The months with the highest view counts directly correlate to the months with the highest Reel and video output. August through December — and especially October, November, and December — were heavier video production months. More video content published means more algorithmic distribution, more follows, and exponentially higher engagement. The data confirms: video is the engine, carousels are the volume. When both run together at full output, the numbers speak for themselves.

Context — What The Data Tells Us
Jan & Feb Performance
January and February were lower-output months following a strong Q4 run. The data reflects a natural post-peak adjustment: January averaged 9,968 views/post on Instagram compared to 56,666 in October at peak output. The key finding is how quickly the audience responds when volume returns — March rebounded to 374K views across 28 posts, the strongest month since December.
The pattern is consistent throughout the entire dataset: output volume is the primary driver of reach. Months with higher Reel production consistently outperform. March's recovery confirms the audience is there and engaged — the upward trend heading into Q2 is on track.
March Rebound
374K
March was the strongest post-Q4 month — 28 posts, full Reel output, audience immediately re-engaged.

Key Insights
Instagram: The Growth Engine
At 9.56% engagement — up to 10× the industry average — Instagram is where community lives. Reels drive 91.5% of all new follows and 72.4% of all likes despite being 22.0% of posts. 35,107 followers built from content alone in 12 months.
Facebook: The Traffic Driver
84,680 link clicks sent buyers directly to inventory. Link posts average 106,863 views each — highest per-post number on either platform. Facebook converts attention into purchase intent while Instagram builds the brand.
Video = Views. Always.
Aug–Dec were heavier video production months. The result: 5 consecutive months above 875K views, peaking at 1.25M in October. The correlation is direct — more Reels published means more algorithmic reach, more follows, and exponentially higher engagement across both platforms.
Oct–Dec 2025: 3.38M Views
Three consecutive months of 1M+ views each. October peaked at 1.25M in a single month. March 2026 rebounded to 374K across 28 posts, the strongest post-slowdown month and proof the audience re-engages the moment consistency returns.
8.99M Combined. Two Jobs.
Instagram builds the audience and brand equity. Facebook moves that audience toward inventory. More touchpoints per buyer at every stage. Running both at full output — especially with video — is the complete full-funnel content strategy.
The Number That Matters — 3.71M Reach
HyperCars content reached 3.71M unique accounts in 12 months across 572 posts. That's the number to lead with — a proven, active audience of car buyers and enthusiasts built through consistent cinematic content.
