Suzuki Philippines has relocated its Suzuki Auto 3S Shop in Isabela to a more convenient and accessible location within the province. The dealership was originally situated at Km 335 Maharlika Highway, Barangay Batal, in Santiago City. Still, it has now been moved to a more spacious plot of land in Purok 3, Barangay Malapat in Cordon. The relocation effort was a collaboration between the Japanese automaker and ESJAY Auto Group’s Elite North Autocars, Inc. “We have decided to move to a new locati

We recently ran a story on the five reasons a Suzuki Jimny could be just as fun and off-road-capable as a Ford Ranger Raptor. We were fully aware that these were two entirely different vehicles, so we just thought it would make for a fun and exciting topic. After all, they are the best-selling models in their respective market segments. What’s more, both vehicles have four-wheel drive and are geared towards going further where the paved road ends. To our surprise, we got numerous comments on our

The Vitara remains to be one of Suzuki’s most enduring automotive nameplates in the Philippines.

As time, however, has passed on, the Fortuner has had many competition, not only the Montero, but also other models like the Terra, MUX, and the Trailblazer to name a few. These models have vastly improved on what the Toyota Fortuner has to offer. Still, there ar

After dominating the segment for years, the Honda BR-V now has a worthy contender in the form of the all-new 2020 Mitsubishi Xpander. The new 7-seater B-segment SUV arrives in with its facelifted form with 1 variant to offer and is locally assembled (CKD) in Pekan. Sure enough, MMM announced recently that demand for the Xpander has far exceeded the Pekan plant’s production limit for the year 2020 and new bookings will be receiving the 2021-year model make instead.
