Nissan has been getting creative with its social media content lately. The Japanese manufacturer posted two videos showing a Grand Theft Auto–style POV of a person walking into a dealership and testing out cars.

The two ‘missions’ are titled ‘Experience the Nissan Leaf’ and ‘Conquer the rough terrain’ with the Nissan X-Trail. Apart from the video game–style movement and dialogue boxes, the reels also mention the characteristics of the two cars, with the Leaf being ‘fast and responsive while providing a quiet and stable ride,’ and the X-Trail being ‘built for any adventure.’

There’s even a secret code to unlock the X-Trail. Now, if only we could make cars appear in real life by doing a couple of awkward lunges and jumps in the parking lot—it’s not reality, but there’s no harm in trying. These reels are a fun way for Nissan to showcase their cars while being in touch with auto-related online trends.

We’re looking forward to more missions like ‘Complete a Lap Time’ with the Nissan Z and ‘Climb the Mountain’ with the Nissan Patrol—and maybe even ‘Fill Up the Nissan Urvan’ as the final boss challenge.

Both videos are available on Nissan’s official Instagram account, or you can watch them below. What other content would you like to see from car manufacturers on social media?
