The new concept car indicates the brand’s interest in creating a new Mini SUV for the global market. In mid-August, the Japanese automaker applied for a trademark for the name “Land Hopper” in Japan, indicating that it could be the new name of the small crossover.

As we know, Filipinos are one of the most hospitable people in the world. Not only the wealthy Filipinos with guest bedrooms get to welcome guests in their home, but even the ones who have the smallest. We Filipinos love it when a relative comes over for the vacation, or a friend for an overnight pajama party. We make sure that they are comfortable during their stay.

Great! We have expected a lot from Toyota this year. There's the new improved Rush, Gazoo Racing Yaris, and now... this!
