Say Nissan in the Philippines, and you’ll almost always get compliments about the brand’s superb air-conditioning systems. Given the government’s recent announcement of an El Niño alert, which is expected to prolong the country’s sweltering dry spell, being in a Nissan might be a godsend – unless you have a Nissan Kicks e-POWER, that is.

(Images from Toyota PH) The Toyota Rush has a 4 Cylinder, In-line, 16 Valve DOHC, Chain Drive with Dual VVT-I engine, which has a power output of 102 horsepower and 134 Newton meters of torque.
