Jon Snow takes the wheel of an Infiniti Q60 to enjoy the open road

To promote the new Infiniti Q60, the Asian company has chosen Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington, who plays the brave Jon Snow in the popular HBO series and who is also a sought-after stage actor, to drive the coupé while reciting the poem The Tyger

The Infiniti Q60 was unveiled not long ago and can already be seen in several promotional videos and images. It is a coupé that makes a strong impression and aims to put itself in the sights of potential buyers looking for a car of this type. A vehicle that falls within the Premium category and that makes use of the face and name of one of the most popular television actors of recent years.

We won’t be seeing Jon Snow, the bastard son of Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell, but we will be seeing the actor who has brought him to life over the six seasons of Game of Thrones. Kit Harington is one of the best-rated actors on today’s television scene but also on the stage, as he has taken part in several plays that have earned applause from audiences.

In this video you can see how the young British actor takes the wheel of one of the new Infiniti Q60 and, while driving, is caught up in inspiration. Through every bend, Harington becomes excited and is swept up by the experience of driving the car, reciting The Tyger, by William Blake. The actor grows ever more excited and enjoys both the recitation and the driving more and more.

The video ends with a braking maneuver by the Q60, which performs very effectively and represents the control the model offers, not only in this promotional piece but in real life. Topping the range, the car is equipped with a 3.0-litre V6 engine producing 400 CV, and it is the one featured in the promotional short film.

This car was presented earlier this year at the Detroit Motor Show. It is a three-door version of the brand’s saloon, which seeks to carve out a niche among similar cars that already have a strong tradition in the segment. So it is no surprise that they chose Kit Harington, an actor who in a short time has built up substantial experience and an important career. What do you think of the new role of the actor who plays Jon Snow?
