Disclosure: This article is part of a paid campaign by Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation. Mitsubishi is, arguably, as much a part of the fabric of Philippine motoring as the iconic jeepney. Since 1963, nameplates like Lancer, Galant, Celeste, Cimarron, Pajero and many more have become permanent entries in the Filipino driving vocabulary. And through all the country’s glories and crises, the Japanese carmaker has always stayed by the Filipino’s side, bringing functional and exciting mobil

When the Mitsubishi Xpander multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) launched in the Philippines in 2018, it was arguably one of the very few cars in the segment that could topple the stranglehold of the Toyota Avanza. Fitted with a 1.5-liter, twin-cam, 16-valve inline-4 gasoline engine and mated to either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission, it was as conventional as it gets with these compact MPVs, straying just enough from the norm to get people interested. Now, though, the market has shi

Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. just released fuel efficiency information about the 2023 Honda BR-V, its soon-to-be-launched seven-seater MPV.

The segment remains highly popular in the Philippines because it combines the utility and practicality of seven seats with the size and ease of a compact sedan. There are established Japanese stalwarts like the Toyota Avanza (and its luxurious Veloz sibling), the Mitsubishi Xpander (and its rebadged Nissan Livina sibling), the Suzuki Ertiga, and the upcoming all-new Honda

If you've been itching to be one of the first people to get your hands on the all-new Honda BR-V, it's time to get your checkbooks ready. Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) announced in an October 2022 press statement that it all of its dealers are now accepting reservations for the upcoming compact seven-seater. AutoFun Philippines contacted some HCPI dealers, who said customers can put down a reservation deposit of at least PHP 5,000. The registered owner must also present at least one valid I

Mitsubishi's obsession with retaining the L300 brand every year is akin to Filipinos' obsession with Voltes V. It's long-standing, occasionally feel-good, sometimes head-scratching, and full of nostalgia. Most local folks feel the same about the Japanese diamond star nameplate. However, the spartan sturdiness of the all-purpose hauler made it a hit (especially in the provinces), so why mess around with a swinging act?
