Every automaker loves to get into the holiday spirit; many of them promote special deals during the month of December, and Hyundai is no exception. The Korean automaker holds the Hyundai Holidays event to offer its vehicles at sale prices as the year concludes.

To advertise the Hyundai Holidays campaign this winter, Hyundai employees participated in a festive Mannequin Challenge set in the lobby of one of its offices. You can watch the video of it below.

WATCH: This Is How Hyundai Does a Holiday Mannequin Challenge

Set to the melody of the “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy,” the Hyundai Holidays Mannequin Challenge lasts 60 seconds and features a dozen employees posed in various festive positions. For instance, throughout the video, you’ll see people hanging ornaments, eating gingerbread cookies, reading stories, toasting drinks, and loading gifts into the trunk of a Hyundai car. The video concludes on the grille the Hyundai model with its roof adorned by a big red bow.

We’ve seen plenty of Mannequin Challenge attempts and this is certainly a creative way to attempt the challenge while expressing holiday cheer and advertising new cars. The participants do a fine job of holding still–and the abundance of festive outfits is a nice touch. Some of those ugly sweaters are definitely cringe-worthy.

It’s certainly not a ground-breaking or high-budget commercial, but this type of simple charm is what makes Hyundai such a lovable brand.
