At the recent Chery Technology Day in Wuhu, the Chinese car company explained its global strategy as it ramps up its export business. The nearly two-hour-long set of presentations was so detailed and exhaustive that you'd imagine you were sitting in a board presentation or a marketing sign-off meeting. But it made sense to show it to the 600 or so Chery-brand users and media in attendance. It was a captive audience if ever there was one. El Plan One key observation we made was how Chery seems to

Ford Philippines has the Ford Ranger and the Ford Everest as its popular pickup truck and 7-seater SUV. These vehicles have two diesel engine options: the 2.0-liter single turbo and the 2.0-liter bi-turbo motor. While the former is for entry-level to mid-grade models, the latter is reserved for the top-spec 4x4 variants.

With the new variant getting cosmetic changes, it begs the question, is the Nissan Terra Sport worth it, or is the Nissan Terra VL still the

With more than 10,000 examples on Philippine roads, the Ford Territory can be considered a runaway hit. Ford took a risk to launch the compact crossover in the middle of a pandemic two years ago. People have learned to adapt to the new normal, and they’ve held their finances in anticipation of Covid-19 exposure. But the Ford Territory has proven itself a value proposition too good to ignore. We recently got behind the wheel of a Territory Titanium+, the sole remaining variant now sold in Ford sh

(Images from Honda PH) As the new Civic model is released, sooner or later, a new Civic Type R will come out.
