The Focus (pardon the pun) is on the only thing the car supposedly can't do, plus it just looks like you're killing yourself or the car or both.

Ener-G-Force is a hint at a future G wagon.
 
Looks like the Germans got mad that the Koreans stole Peter Schreyer away, so they took *ALL* the Korean designers, and had them work with the design teams from Hummer, the Isuzu Vehicross, and the Nissan Juke, in unison, to create this "design".

Pretty neat, they project the image on the vehicle itself, first covered, then reveal it live in the finale of the vid:

There's not much else in the facelift, as one has to admit the design has aged fairly well. Making the most of it, I suppose, even if it is a web promo video that few will watch compared to an actual commercial.
 
Can't wait to get home to see pretentious Christmas commercials, let me tell ya.

Those aren't too bad - no plastic families, dorky whipped guys, or unobtainable to the 98% residential housing shown.

Seems early for a mid-model makeover, though. I feel like it just came out.
 
Any how, I guess the Audi Christmas lights ad appealed to the demographic and M-B had to respond, get pretty lights on its face, too.
 
Everybody's doing it. Even the 2014 Forester got LED tube lighting.
