Motley Crue starred in the Kia Optima’s Super Bowl commercial. So why shouldn’t Michael Angelo Batio appear in a car commercial as well? The Nitro/solo virtuoso currently appears in a new Canadian commercial for the Kia Optima. Actually, Batio’s appearance is very brief and he’s so far away that the only way you can tell its him is buy his signature double guitar. Then again, as one particular Honda commercial proves, sometimes less is more. Watch the Canadian Kia commercial featuring the shredder in the video above.
