Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) made waves when it launched the all-new CR-V on September 2023. 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).

This is my first time driving the Jaguar I-PACE, and my observations a

Like there are different character levels in your favorite role-playing game, there are also vehicle classes that differentiate the roles of various car models. The sedan can accommodate up to five full-grown adults, a heavy-duty pickup truck that can typically lift around 800 kilos of cargo weight, and a sports car that is perfect for motorsport enthusiasts. But the most popular vehicle class in the Philippines is the SUV segment, a staple choice for families and individuals looking for a spaci

Seldom do we see a pickup truck that looks demurely sophisticated instead of the usual rugged off-roader, that sets the 2022 Mazda BT-50 apart and uniquely appealing on the road. The BT-50 goes for a sophisticated and premium appearance fit for city driving and formal events, yet is indeed an off-road-ready vehicle. It has been around internationally since 2006, and it has been known as a top choice for an executive pickup truck. When it was introduced by Mazda Philippines in 2012, it was patron
