In an attempt to get into the holiday spirit, BMW asked four members of the Zurich Acapella Group to join in on a test drive in the new M135i, producing one of the fastest Christmas songs yet.
The video opens with a strategically slow but slightly eerie version of an instrumental version of Jingle Bells, the scene quickly shifts into the new BMW vehicle soaring through the tracks with the singers inside. As the Zurich Acapella Group try to maintain composure as the driver drifts through the lanes, the fastest Christmas song becomes a little disjointed in a miraculous way.
The speed of the car is quite impressive but horrific so being able to even produce a tune in the 320-horsepower vehicle is a feat and achievement in itself.
