Disclosure: Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation very kindly lent me a 2023 Mitsubishi Strada Athlete 4WD for seven days. It came with a full tank of diesel and an RFID card with plenty of load. AutoFun Philippines paid for additional fuel and toll fees. You never really know the true potential of someone or something until you put them or it to the test.

Fully electric Porsches are nothing new – the Taycan electric supercar has been a hit, even for Korean pop stars. But the German carmaker also competes in the 2023 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, where open-wheeled single-seaters with battery-electric drivetrains have been slugging it out since 2014. At the latest round in Jakarta, Indonesia, Porsche made a strong showing, with Pascal Wehrlein winning in Race 10 to regain the team championship lead. This was despite searing temperatures of

No doubt one of the hardest things about driving a car is staying in your lane. Naturally, one-to-two tons of steel will move around due to any number of reasons: wind, road imperfections and even bad wheel alignment. So what does any sensible driver do?

If there is something that keeps on soaring, it is the price of fuel. That is why we keep an eye on daily fuel price updates and consider alternatives, whether going on a public commute or switching to a more fuel-efficient car.
