Filipino car buyers who want seven seats and a Honda badge right now can turn to the highly competent Honda BR-V. That’s because the current-generation Honda CR-V will officially be replaced on Sept. 13, 2023. AutoFun Philippines was the first to report that the latest version of the venerable crossover would arrive this year with an all-new hybrid engine. However, this means that the top-spec CR-V’s economical turbodiesel engine and (rather tight) third-row seat will also bid farewell. But it s

Ford Philippines has seen continued momentum, specifically with one of its new models, the next-generation Ford Territory. The five-seater SUV debuted at the 2023 Manila International Motor Show and became one of the main attractions at the brand’s booth. Since the event, the SUV has sold more than 1,500 units thanks to its powerful yet efficient performance, remarkable new design, premium interior, and a new range of intelligent technologies. To dissect its popularity, Ford Philippines gives yo

We, motoring journalists, have all had our fun exploring the all-new 2023 Honda BR-V, but now it’s your turn! Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) announced in a November 2022 press statement that it would hold mall exhibitions of the BR-V from Nov. 24 to 30, 2022.

Although most of us won’t take our SUVs and pickups through waist-high floods, it’s always reassuring to know that they can. Ford Philippines is keen to prove this to potential buyers as it heads to SM City Pampanga on Sept. 23-25, 2022, for its third Ford Island Conquest, where it will showcase the 2023 Ford Ranger pick-up and its SUV cousin, the 2023 Ford Everest. The company said the event will feature a dynamic display, an on-road test drive (where most pick-ups and SUVs spend their lives),

The Honda City has undergone massive transformation throughout its seminal history. It started in 1981 with the first quirky "Tallboy" design concept, featuring an innovative seating arrangement for passengers. Then in 1986, the second-generation City hunched down to a "crouching form" with a low and wide stance uniquely outfitting its appearance. I remember when... But the third generation city in 1996 introduced the nameplate to the Filipino consciousness. Designed to be a basic sedan for emer

After dominating the segment for years, the Honda BR-V now has a worthy contender in the form of the all-new 2020 Mitsubishi Xpander. The new 7-seater B-segment SUV arrives in with its facelifted form with 1 variant to offer and is locally assembled (CKD) in Pekan.

So, how does it compare against
