The 2023 Japan Mobility Show (JMS) is an interesting event, especially for Toyota, as it has revealed its new FT-Se two-seater concept car with Gazoo Racing branding.

Motorsports is the last place you would expect to hear about sustainability. Perhaps even less so at endurance races, where cars at full belt for up to 25 hours straight, testing both man and machine through day and night.

Here are some head turners on display at the 8th Philippine International Motor Show that would make anyone's garage a wonderful, happy place.
