The wait is almost over! The arrival of Australia's first-ever Toyota Hilux GR Sport is set for this September. And by the looks of it, the Ford Ranger Raptor should be worried. With a starting price of just $73,990 plus on-road costs (around ₱2.7 million), the HiLux GR Sport is not your average pick-up truck or the Hilux GR-S we've come to know, for that matter. Oh no!

Disclosure: Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation very kindly lent me a 2023 Mitsubishi Strada Athlete 4WD for seven days. It came with a full tank of diesel and an RFID card with plenty of load. AutoFun Philippines paid for additional fuel and toll fees. You never really know the true potential of someone or something until you put them or it to the test.

In a press statement, Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) said there will be three Circuit Championship classes, along with the Autocross Challenge races, in the long-running one-make racing event. “These race events will feature seasoned and celebrity racers along with influencers and members of the media who will either defend their pl

Scaling down. It may be a messy word to numerous car devotees, but clearly unavoidable. Indeed purveyors of expansive motors, Mercedes-AMG, as of late announced that its respected 4.0-litre, twin turbo V8 engines will be supplanted with hybrid 4-cylinder ones.
