Many automakers like to say their cars are great for road trips, but Nissan actually shows it. In the “Heisman House” series, Nissan's vehicles team up with football legends in a lineup that takes fans on a memorable road adventure. This season delivers a new journey for Nissan models, a refreshed storyline, and a few new faces, making it the most entertaining installment so far.
Heisman House
The Heisman House series runs during the US college football season. The first 2025 episode kicked off in late August and features multiple campaign segments. The opening spot, “Launch Inspector,” welcomes newcomer Travis Hunter. In this storyline, Hunter arrives at the Heisman House, but the group is interrupted by a sudden home inspection. This sets the stage for the rest of the season, following the players as they hit the road through campgrounds, long highways, and tough weather before reaching rival territory in Ohio. The following spot picks up as the group crosses into Ohio, sparking rivalries and energizing the competition.
New Cast Members
Travis Hunter, the NFL's second overall draft pick, is the newest addition to this year's cast. He joins a legendary group that includes Tim Tebow, Barry Sanders, Gino Torretta, Jayden Daniels, Baker Mayfield, and Eddie George.
Nissan's Star Vehicles
The road trip wouldn't be complete without Nissan's standout lineup of vehicles. The players travel in models such as the Nissan Rogue, Nissan Frontier, and Nissan Pathfinder. The 2026 Nissan Leaf also makes its debut, earning recognition as the most affordable electric vehicle on the US market.
The Nissan lineup is just as noteworthy as the athletes themselves. The Rogue stands out for its roomy cabin, the Frontier for its 7,150-pound towing capacity, and the Pathfinder for its strong V6 engine that keeps the team moving with ease. Meanwhile, the 2026 Leaf showcases Nissan's EV innovation with excellent driving range and a lighter environmental impact.
