The recent “Undas” week gave us all the chance to reflect not only about those who have left us, but also about our own lives. For those who stayed in Metro Manila, it has been a pleasant mix of clear roads, good weather and occasional rain showers. And for those who drove out of town, it was a chance to spend up to a week away from the hustle and bustle of city life. It really makes you wonder about what the Philippines would be like if economic development were spread all throughout the archip

When you think about the 24-hour Le Mans race, you think of sleek hypercar racecars all vying for the top spot in the historic endurance race. However, the last thing you would expect to see at the event is a next-generation NASCAR racecar duking it out with the rest of them.

Whether it was the baby-Lamborghini Huracan looks rendered by Japanese publication BestCarWeb or the promise of yet another 21st-century Toyota sports car, the idea of a nippy, mid-engine two-door clearly captured your imagination. Throughout our racing careers, both AutoFun Philippines content head Mikko David and I have been able to take the Toyota MR-S convertible to its limits on th

Motorsports is the last place you would expect to hear about sustainability. Perhaps even less so at endurance races, where cars at full belt for up to 25 hours straight, testing both man and machine through day and night. But in a December 2022 press statement, Toyota Motor Corporation said it would field two cars at the 25-hour IDEMITSU 1500 SUPER ENDURANCE 2022 that aims to break the mold. The Japanese carmaker said it would field a Toyota GR Corolla powered by hydrogen and a Toyota GR86 that

What seemed like a mundane press statement from Mazda’s press office turned out to have a little white gem. In a November 2022 update on the Japanese carmaker’s management plans until 2030, there were photos of a swoopy and sleek coupe called the “Vision Study Model.” From its thin headlights to its curvaceous wheel arches, the concept car looks like a futuristic MX-5 or a potential RX-7 successor. Although Mazda made absolutely no mention of the Vision Study Model in its press statement, it mig
