(CAMPI). “Since the debut of its f

This is the Mazda EZ-6, a rear-wheel drive D-segment sedan developed in partnership with Changan. It looks like a successor to the Mazda 6, but it’s not, as this is a China-only model. Available either a battery EV (BEV) or plug-in hybrid (PHEV) model, the EZ-6 will go on sale in China by the end of this year. The BEV will have a 66.8 kWh battery while the PHEV will pair a 1.5-litre petrol engine paired to either a 19.4 kWh or 28.4 kWh battery. The BEV will have a claimed driving range of 600 km

When the opportunity for a long weekend presents itself, you take it as a break from your busy work week. It's a great time to go on a road trip or catch up with friends.

The road trip we would embark on would start in Quezon City and
