A typical sedan costs around Php700,000 to more than two million pesos, depending on the model. But what would you expect from the most affordable vehicle – the 2022 Suzuki S-Presso, in the local automotive market today? The 2022 Suzuki S-Presso has some traits that will make yo

Because of the rapidly growing popularity of crossover SUVs, the competition tightens. This type of car has become the automotive brands’ priority in the market. And because of that, Japanese maker Honda is making sure to get the BR-V in a high spot among the best crossover SUVs internationally. The company then introduced the second-generation Honda BR-V after five years. The new BR-V comes with more impressive updates than the outgoing model. The exterior has been redesigned, as well as the in
