Nissan Philippines recently allowed us to test its newest pair of sports cars, the 2024 Nissan GTR and the recently launched Nissan Z, around the Clark International Speedway. This allowed us to see how the vehicles would handle around a track and to see how much they have progressed over the years as the Japanese automaker also provided older versions of these vehicles, such as the 2021 GTR and the Nissan 370Z, to see just how much they have improved.

Toyota Motor Corporation has a long and storied history of performance divisions. While the Japanese brand is known for the reliability and durability of its products, it has also dabbled in the performance and motorsports segments. The Japanese automaker has joined several prestigious races in its history, which include the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Super GT, and the World Rally Championship.

Toyota is keeping ahead of the curve in predicting future classic vehicles as it has announced a factory restoration program for the first-generation Toyota 86.

It is

The fastest-growing segment in the Philippines is arguably the one most confusing – the Subcompact Crossover SUV. What even is it? It’s a minuscule SUV based on an already tiny Hatchback. Think high-riding Toyota Yaris. So why is it in demand? Simple: It’s an SUV minus the size. It affords people the Adventurer lifestyle without sacrificing practicality, ease of drivability, and fuel consumption. No surprise, companies that cashed in on the trend mostly come from China, a country that’s effectiv

We don't usually write about watches here at AutoFun Philippines, but this new Casio timepiece got us excited. The Japanese watch maker recently released the Casio ECB-2000MFG-1A – the name of this red-and-black watch already offers a clue of its relationship to one of the most popular works of motorsports literature. It is the result of a collaboration between EDIFICE, which is Casio's motorsports line-up, and the two street-racing manga (Japanese graphic novels in English) of renowned Japanese
