The 2024 Honda CR-V will reportedly be coming to the Philippine market soon with two new engine options. The first is a turbocharged 1.5-liter gasoline engine similar to what you would find on the Honda HR-V and Honda Civic. And the second is a new 2.0-liter hybrid motor. These new powerplants will be game-changers for the CR-V as it will mark the first time turbocharged power has come to the crossover in the country. In addition, Honda Cars Philippines will have a hybrid model again, following

Suzuki Philippines has officially launched the 2023 Suzuki S-Presso with its new AGS transmission. The S-presso originally entered the Philippine market as a bare-bones hatchback with only a 5-speed manual transmission. It was simple and easy no thrills, no frills point A to point B transportation. However, as the S-Presso gained a small following in the local market, its owners and interested buyers alike wanted more from the hatchback.

At the time, I thought the Xpander, which was a replacement to the Adventure, was an answer to the Innova and later on the Avanza, as Mitsubishi has been missing in the MPV segment. Of course, right now, there is the Honda B-RV, the Isuzu Ertiga. When the Rush came out, it looked like a cross between the Fortuner and an Innova. Or if two Fortuners have a baby, then it is the Rush. (But have you s
