Kia’s Super Bowl ads all seem to put Melissa McCarthy and the Kia Niro in peril

It seems that actress and comedienne Melissa McCarthy isn’t going to catch a break in this year’s Kia Niro hybrid Super Bowl commercials. The company previously teased an ad in which she runs in terror from something in an arid, possibly African landscape. The latest teaser shows her in much colder climates, and this time you can actually see a Niro. The problem is, it’s stranded on an iceberg.

In the teaser, she calls up Kia roadside assistance to ask just whether you actually need to be on a road to use it. No answer is given, so we’ll probably have to wait for the full commercial to find out the resolution. Perhaps some polar bears, recognizing the Niro’s environmentally-friendly 50 mpg rating, will push her iceberg to land so she can escape. We’ll surely know when both this ad and the one set in the desert will air during the third quarter of the Super Bowl.
