VIDEO: Ford’s Snowkhana 4 – a snowy X’mas message

Now here’s an unusual Season’s Greetings video from Ford, titled “Snowkhana 4: Ho Ho Hokhana.” The over two-minute ad features a Ford Focus RS as the main star, with Santa or Mental Block as the driver. Apart from that, there are also characters from Star Wars, Toy Story, Frozen and even an odd Minion.

Ada Polis juga! Another Ford Focus RS chases down a drifting Santa, from behind and with much haste. If you noticed, Darth Vader also makes an appearance here, perhaps requesting for Santa to slow down. In addition to that, Buzz Lightyear is atop two Coca-Cola trucks, doing splits. If you’re wondering where you saw that before, well, Jean-Claude van Damme did it on top two Volvo FM trucks.

But it’s not a khana video without some sideways action is it? Which is why the Focus RS takes on snowy ice roads to do just that. The most hilarious part of the video is perhaps Santa hiding from his pursuer, isn’t it? The video is indeed a perfect way to start the Christmas season.

The Ford Focus RS features a 2.3 litre EcoBoost four-cylinder engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission. It produces 345 hp and 440 Nm and can be boosted to 470 Nm (for 15 seconds) of torque in European specs, while the US version makes more – 350 hp and 475 Nm of torque. The European Focus RS does 0-100 km/h in 4.7 seconds.

Aside from Launch Control, the all-wheel drive RS has “torque vectoring” capability. Furthermore, It features four different Drive Modes, which include Normal, Sport, Track and a Drift Mode for controlled oversteering – perhaps used when shooting the video too.

To him, nothing's better than cruising for hours along a scenic route, in a car that's designed and built for that purpose.
