It’s easy to get carried away by the hype of an all-new vehicle launch. And that’s what car brands want you to feel after seeing their latest offering roll onto the stage. Let’s take the all-new Mitsubishi XForce, for example. Sure, it looks appealing, has a handsome design, and even a well-endowed feature set. But what if we said Mitsubishi ensured its latest offering had some other tricks up its sleeve for good measure? At a Mitsubishi product conference Autofun Philippines attended on the sec

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) has made it easier for hardworking Filipino seafarers to get their hands on a brand-new car with its latest business alliance.
