Besides being the latest generation of an iconic model, the 2024 Honda CR-V is likewise the first hybrid in the HCPI lineup since the Honda Legend went off into the sunset some years ago. However, many were startled by the CR-V’s pricetag – the non-hybrid 2WD model starts out at ₱2,100,000, while the top-spec hybrid RS e:HEV costs ₱2,590,000 (just slightly undercutting the Toyota RAV4 HEV).

They’re considered the modern-day family car as they offer ample seating and can handle rough terrain. Of course, I’m referring to none other than the sport-utility vehicle (SUV). Its huge popularity and demand are down to things Filipino families love - it seats seven, offers strong engine power, runs on diesel, and has a high ground clearance. In our local SUV segment, the Toyota Fortuner and the Mitsubishi Montero Sport are staunch and long-running rivals. Let's take a close look at these two

Imagine being a car club that is so well-known that a carmaker produces special-edition models to commemorate your silver anniversary. Miata Club Philippines (MCP), which is the oldest single-make car club in the country, got just that during the official turnover of the first batch of the Mazda MX-5 MCP 25th Anniversary Edition on October 2022.
