In an attempt to get into the holiday spirit, [BMW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-i7-m70-xdrive) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-concept-speedtop) 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.
