The Sound. It hasn’t been easy to pinpoint this piano-heavy track. But I’ve whittled it down to two. Do you believe it has this kind of a sound?
The Operator. Actor/model Charlie Wilson is seen driving this brand-new 2023 Kia Sportage. He’s also making headlines for some juicy information; he’s thought to be dating dancer/actress Julianne Hough.
The place. Although I can’t confirm or reject it, my research and reading indicate that this was filmed at St. Augustine Beach in Florida. Additionally, Kia has promised to make a donation to the Texas-based Sea Turtles, Inc. This group exists to aid in the rehabilitation of sick or injured sea turtles.
Who plays the dog in the Kia commercial?
After the 2022 Super Bowl, the 45-year-old actor posted a picture of his family posing with the cute Robo Dog on Instagram.
He later posted pictures of himself with his three children posing with Robo Dog. “#Robodog getting acclimated to living with these animals,” he wrote.
Sam is most recognized for his performance in the newest Netflix film Brazen as well as his appearances on The Bold Type, Mad Men, House of Cards, Gossip Girl, and other popular television series.
Is the robotic dog from the Kia advertisement real?
Subaru, you’re not the only automaker with endearing canine advertisements. Robo Dog, the star of Kia’s Super Bowl commercial, is man’s new best buddy. Warning: This section contains spoilers for the Subaru ad that featured Robo Dog. They Lived.
We regret that Kia substituted another animal for the infamous Kia Soul rapping hamsters (can you believe some of those commercials are more than ten years old?). The Kia EV6, a brand-new, totally electric SUV that ushers in a new age of BEV-specific cars for Kia, is represented by the new star, an electronic puppy named Robo Dog. We were convinced after watching the commercial that the hamsters wouldn’t work this time. Additionally, the Soul EV’s hamsters may serve as a reminder of the upcoming Kia EV.
The song playing in the commercial, “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler, is the first hint that something great is about to happen. A $299 price tag is next to Robo Dog as he sits in the display window of an electronics shop. He pouts as he glumly observes from the front row as a happy man receives a massive hug from the actual Subaru dog (we joke, a different Retriever).
When Robo Dog spots the owner of a Kia EV6 uplug, he quickly perks up. He flees from the electronics store through the front door while pursuing the EV6 as it leaves. Robo Dog pursues the Kia, whose driver seems unaware of the pup, dodging crates and risking everything to stay up with the EV6.
Robo Dog arrives on a rooftop after using an elevator. He makes one last lunge towards the structure, aiming to land in the open sunroof of the EV6. He runs out of battery mid-flight, and everything goes dark. The Kia owner probably discovers Robo Dog intact rather than smashing into a thousand bits and splatting on the sidewalk. (Plot hole, but it’s all right.) Using the vehicle-to-load (V2L) onboard charger from a Kia, he brings the cute robotic puppy back to life. Robo Dog looks up at the happy Kia EV6 owner, revitalized.
The final image of the commercial features Robo Dog happily putting his head out the passenger window and the Kia motto, “Live fully charged.” Once Robo Dog is hooked into his permanent residence, everything turns out well. electronics with added passion.
The Kia campaign is on actual human-animal bonding rather than just being a commercial. The “Robo Dogmented Reality,” a mobile online experience created in collaboration with the Petfinder Foundation, virtualizes pet adoption and enables individuals to look for adoptive animals nearby. Kia’s first TikTok integration, a “Turn Around Dance” promotion where users can dance with Robo Dog, further spreads the message.
