Sunlight, finally! I never thought that I’d actually miss getting hot and sweaty from the searing heat. But I suppose that over a week of stormy weather (and alarming floods) makes the heart grow fonder of the Sun. But the maelstroms don’t seem to have dampened your desire for the latest crossovers, which were among our five hottest stories from Aug. 31 to Sept. 4, 2023. Here’s your AutoFun Philippines Rearview Roundup. Bring on the XForce(?) The dramatic-looking Mitsubishi XFC Concept always se

A decade ago, if you told us that Chinese car brands would be among the top 10 sellers in the Philippines, we’d tell you to get lost. But the latest data from the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Inc. has proven just that – Geely and Foton were 9th and 10th, respectively, in terms of units sold locally in 2022. This is all the more notable given that Geely only started operations locally in September 2019, while Foton had been notorious for producing cheap but questionable-

Throughout 2022, the Philippines has experienced hardship and calamity left and right. From raging typhoons to runaway inflation, it seems the year decided not to be kind to the resilient Filipinos. That same resiliency can be found in the robust car market that sells some of the cheapest cars we've seen in a decade. Here we round up 10 of the cheapest cars available to Filipino buyers, and if you stick around to the last vehicle, there is a bonus choice that may prove interesting to many. 10. C

It seemed only yesterday when Geely Philippines launched the Azkarra compact crossover. And back in 2020, it was a groundbreaking offering with its 48V mild-hybrid system and plush and feature-packed interiors. Despite its renowned refinement, fuel efficiency, and tech, the first-generation Azkarra that we have today is already six years old. And that is already ancient in car speak. That is why the time is right for Geely to introduce the 2023 Boyue L. This 5-seat crossover is the basis of what

It would have been quite undoubtedly interesting if there ever was a car version of a Ms. Universe pageant. Imagine all those flaunting specks of white thighs in place of er, slim, and singularly-chiseled quad pipes. (hah! You wish) But of course, such a thing would never happen. It's just one of those run-away goosebumps of fertile-wild imaginings of sorts, we guess. However, the closest thing that ever was to resemble a kind of "car pageant" (we could think of) would be that so-called annual e
