<br /> Toyota typically doesn't go out of its way to be creative when advertising its cars for sale in the U.S. (Saved by Zero, anyone?), but that doesn't mean the Japanese automaker lacks a sense of humor. Toyota's new commercial for the Australian-spec Corolla hatchback contains bi-pedal kittens kicking ass Jackie Chan-style. The 45-second spot is a bit creepy on all counts, and could definitely use some kung fu sound effects. We're trying to figure out who the target audience is for this puss-tastic commercial, because the Corolla-driving heroin basically beats up a bunch of cat-people, takes their fish and drives off. Maybe the Pet Smart crowd has a lot of pent-up feelings towards sardines. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/07/video-toyota-uses-ninja-kittens-to-sell-corollas-in-australia/">Follow the jump</a> to see the action-packed feline film for yourself and venture a guess as to what Toyota was going for in the comments.<span style="font-style: italic;"> Thanks for the tip, everyone!</span><br /><br />[Source: <a href="http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=Ckb-wUHj9WU">YouTube</a>]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/07/video-toyota-uses-ninja-kittens-to-sell-corollas-in-australia/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>VIDEO: Toyota uses Ninja Kittens to sell Corollas in Australia</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/11/07/video-toyota-uses-ninja-kittens-to-sell-corollas-in-australia/">VIDEO: Toyota uses Ninja Kittens to sell Corollas in Australia</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Fri, 07 Nov 2008 14:28:00 EST.
