Unlike Toyota or Ford, Honda Cars did not really have an established presence in the Philippines until it officially started operations on October 1990. This month, Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) is celebrating 33 years in the country with a variety of awesome deals from Oct. 1 to 31, 2023. These include a 10-percent, all-in downpayment of as low as ₱10,000 for the highly popular 2023 Honda BR-V VX with Honda SENSING, which is the only vehicle in its class to feature active-safety assists li

The 2024 Toyota Wigo has officially launched in the Philippine market, It comes in three new variants, a new exterior, new features and competitive pricing to keep its position as a top-selling small city hatchback. However, when we were predicting the pricing for the new model, we said it would be higher than before and would push the suggested retail price of the hatchback to the ₱800,000 range.

All three brands will likely have their own versions. The MR-S successor will likely use the same Toyota New Global Architecture platform on the Toyota GR Yaris, with the front end reportedly using the GR Yaris’ suspension. Meanwhile, Daihatsu a

A seasoned motorist would probably have a slight reservation or two in driving a somewhat minuscule car much like the Hyundai Eon along twisting and dangerously steep mountain passes much in the likes of the Kennon Road, AKA Rosario–Baguio Road which is a two-lane 33.53-kilometer (20.83 mi) stretch of grueling roadway leading to the top of the world, er, to the mountain city of Baguio in Benguet province, whose range is at 5,000 feet above sea level. (much too close for comfort we guess?) But do

What is the most impressive car for you? The ones that are capable to take you on an off-road adventure, or maybe a high-functioning SUV? Lately, I find the 2022 version of the Honda Brio impressive as the model has successfully broken its boundaries as a small car. Sometimes we tend to ignore the beauty and the capabilities of a small car like the Brio. But little that we know, its Japanese automaker is capable of intelligently upgrading it to become more attractive than before. It has been aro
