Road trip to Philippine historical sites with the Isuzu Alterra

By Anna Barbara L. Lorenzo —   28 Jun 2010 Printer-Friendly Version

June is the perfect time to refresh our memory with the country's rich history. After all, it is the month when we celebrate our Independence Day.

It's very fitting then that Isuzu Philippines Corp. opted for a short historical tour in Manila, Cavite and Laguna for motoring journalists to test the 2010 Isuzu Alterra along with its new standard feature: the I-Nav system.

We had the flag-off within walls of Intramuros and the rest is, as they say, history.  

Our fleet of 2010 Isuzu Alterra units line up just outside Illustrado Cafe in Intramuros.

 

FHM managing editor Allan Hernandez listens as Winterpine marketing specialist Bea Siman explains how to operate the I-Nav System, our trusty guide during the tour.

 

Spotted in Fort Santiago: Apparently, cars are not the only ones you can modify and lower.

  Im not sure but I recall an article stating the flaw of a NAV system here in the PI was due to the many discrepancies/unmarked streets that we have here. Most especially in the Provinces where it would probably be completely useless.
