The GWM Tank 300 isn’t the only vehicle that GWM Philippines previewed at its recent event, as the automaker also gave us a sneak peek of the GWM Ora 03 electric vehicle (EV). While the EV is called the Good Cat in other markets, GWM gave it a different name for the local market. It is a retro-inspired hatchback with a modern and minimalist interior. GWM says there are no official specifications for the Ora yet available. Still, a quick look at international models gave us a general idea of what

The next-generation 2023 Toyota Vios recently encountered serious controversy after Daihatsu, Toyota’s partner brand, allegedly falsified crash test results for the sedan. This is related to notches in the door sidings of the Vios and Wigo crash-test units that help prevent injury to occupants in a side impact. However, this modification was not included in the production models, leading to a temporary stoppage of sales in Thailand. However, good news is on the horizon as Thailand’s road transpo

The 2023 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) saw many new crossovers launch and officially debut in the Philippine market.

But suppose the local spec 2023 Mitsubishi Xpander Cross is close to being kitted out like the one launched during last year’s 29th GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show. In that case, there’s a lot to look forward

Just like the super-villainous and shape-shifting "Mystique", of the X-Men movie- fame series who can mimic the appearance and voice of any person at will, the Toyota Rush, in a classic sense does too, although only in terms of aliases, as the said car goes by any other name too. The fact is, in Japan, this car goes by the name of Daihatsu Terios during its flagship run there way back in 1997, then a couple of years flash by before it adopted the name Teruna, then onwards to Bego, then moving on

We tipped our hats off to Ford Motors (FM) for giving the world Ford Ecosport along with its darling siblings (Titanium, SE, S, SES trims), considering that this remarkable (in a way) vehicle had once established a fine reputation as a phenomenal blockbuster hit; in terms of lucrative automotive sales. Therefore, it was almost a complete surprise to everyone about the car being “discontinued” production-wise, from the lineup of saleable crossover SUVs. Thus, the ensuing effect of the car’s disco
