Hyundai Philippines recently launched the all-new Hyundai Custin alongside the Hyundai Stargazer X and a new variant of the Staria. At the launch event, the South Korean automaker allowed us to test out all these vehicles on a short test drive course where we could see how the new Custin would handle. The united we tested was the top-spec model with a white interior. However, we must disclose that the MPV was in shipping mode when we tested it. Its performance may differ once it has been unlocke

Disclosure: Honda Cars Philippines Inc. kindly lent me a 2023 Honda Civic Type R FL5 for nine days. It arrived with a full tank of fuel and loaded RFID cards. AutoFun Philippines paid for additional fuel, toll, and a carwash. The word “legend” gets thrown around an awful lot nowadays. Social media is awash with so-called legends, supposedly because they achieved some incredible metric online (a gazillion followers/subscribers) or for some insane (and often extremely dangerous) act.

At Clark International Speedway, Car #150 and Car #214 line up behind the starting tree of the National Drag Racing Championship Series (NDRC).

Despite its renowned refinement, fuel efficiency, and tech, the first-generation Azkarra that we have today is already six years old. And that is already ancient in car speak. That is why the time is right for Geely to introduce the 2023 Boyue L. This 5-seat crossover is the basis of what

Suzuki Philippines made waves at the 8th Philippine International Motor Show last September 2022 with the unveiling of its Ertiga Hybrid. It is the first compact, seven-seat multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) in the country with a hybrid powertrain. The carmaker has yet to disclose the date of the model's local release. However, if you want to know what it's like on the road, our friend Prasetyo from AutoFun Indonesia got a chance to drive the Ertiga Hybrid following its launch there on June 2022. Here

We have known the Veloz as the top-of-the-line variant of the previous versions of Toyota Avanza, but not anymore, as Toyota gave it its nameplate this 2022. The Japanese automaker promotes the 2022 Veloz as a premium version of the Avanza. The most noticeable change Toyota has made to the Veloz is its aesthetic appeal, as the company has said that its goal was to make a more premium and comfortable Avanza. The powertrain system and several components are almost the same. It means that you canno
