Koohii Story 2 | "Ford didn't know what to call their next car, and it was ready to be released. A quick-witted Indian employee thought to himself, ""why don't they just call it the 'car', so they can get this show on the road?"" He raised his hand at the meeting and said, ""I propose we call it the Ford Ka. No, not like 'car', the Sanskrit ka invokes a sense of reliability, safety, performance and beauty. Add to that the fact that nobody will forget its name, because it's homophonous with the actual product!" |
