Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) made waves when it launched the all-new CR-V on September 2023. Besides being the latest generation of an iconic model, the 2024 Honda CR-V is likewise the first hybrid in the HCPI lineup since the Honda Legend went off into the sunset some years ago. However, many were startled by the CR-V’s pricetag – the non-hybrid 2WD model starts out at ₱2,100,000, while the top-spec hybrid RS e:HEV costs ₱2,590,000 (just slightly undercutting the Toyota RAV4 HEV).

Volkswagen Philippines has been quiet in the automotive market for some time, with its last launch being the Volkswagen Cross Santana and new colors for the Volkswagen T-Cross. However, something interesting happened with the launch of the Volkswagen Tharu as the newest crossover to join the brand’s local lineup. It is positioned above the T-Cross and where the Volkswagen Tiguan used to be in the lineup. Today, we will compare it against another new vehicle within the same price bracket with the

Sunday morning – chill out at home, do some errands and prepare for our Monday shoot. Well, that was supposed to be the plan. Instead, I’m facing a red velvet cupcake, feeling the fresh daytime breeze brush against my face. The petite pastry is one of the best-sellers at Naro, which is located on the Binmaley Baywalk in Pangasinan. Its rich buttercream complements the crumbly, auburn dough. “In Pangasinense, naro ta ka means ‘I love you,’” said my dear friend and Pangasinan native Zeb Jimenez. T

The 2024 Honda CR-V is set to make its debut in Thailand on March 20, 2023. The new version of the seven-seater crossover brings revised styling, a new set of engines, and a new slew of features. Aside from this, the 2024 Honda CR-V will reportedly be available with a 2.0-liter hybrid drivetrain.
