After Nissan scored creative points with its last Qashqai spot showing the 'lil CUV taking to the half pipe and performing skateboard stunts that would make Rodney Mullen's head spin, its now released a new campaign that involves – God help us – a driving dog, a Thai musical stunt team and a flaming hoop. The ad is part of Nissan's newest viral campaign that will highlight four amateur performance groups – the first from Thailand, followed by teams of Flemish, Polish and African descent – on the blog.spannerleague.com website. Look for new videos to pop up each month, but without further ado, hit the jump to watch man's best friend risk life and four limbs along with his band of (obviously fake) Thai musicians.
cuz they were off road, and because music was being performed, you forgot:
tread lightly. All music featured in this advertisment are the sole intellectual properties of the Thai musicians performing their respective songs. Thai musicians are believed to be Thai at the time of filming. Nissan Motor Corporation reserves the right to modify, amend or adjust Thai musicians at any time without notice. Dog driving vehicle is for illustration purposes only and does not reflect an endorsement for credit requirements for Nissan Financial services. 0% dog APR is for dogs with Tier I and II credit. Must take delivery from dealer stock between now and April 31st. Not all dogs will quality. See your local Nissan retailer for more details.

That would probably kill everyone strapped to the car, but hey, cool commercials.

more entertaining than the skateboard one. of course, anything with animals driving tends to be at least mildly amusing.

Fun video. The band didn't sound that great but the dog really stuck the landing.

-closed course
-professional driver
-no dogs were harmed while filming
-dont try this at home
