Ford Australia Sells EcoBoost With Frogs in Quirky New Ad – Video

It’s been a long time since Budweiser first debuted its infamous commercial starring our favorite amphibians. But this time around, Ford of Australia has turned to the assistance of toads to show off its EcoBoost engines.

Somehow it manages to segue into the toads talking about a vehicle that’s coming down the road. But these aren’t ordinary toads; in the lovable Australian accent, one of them believes they should get off the road at which time the other responds with, “It’s only a four cylinder…four cylinder, not powerful!”
