If you follow us on Facebook or Instagram, you may have seen our ‘ask us anything’ story post when we went on the first-ever Lakbay Tamaraw drive in Mindoro last month. You guys sent in a lot of questions, and there should have been a video for all the answers. The tribute we sent to the event, however, managed to come down with a cold—something she blames on her poor immune system, not on the Toyota Tamaraw’s Arctic levels of air-conditioning (but yes, it was that cold).
Well, Sheng got her voice back in time for this episode of the Top Gear Philippines podcast, and she shares some driving impressions of the new-generation Toyota Tamaraw and talks about the current state of its namesake animal, which is endemic to Mindoro and is classified as a critically endangered species.

That’s not our only road trip in June, though—Mazda Philippines invited Leandre and Charles, along with their group of media friends, to Baguio City. Naturally, they drove the Japanese carmaker’s latest models going there. Leandre recounts the trip and shares how each Mazda has its own character while also boasting the brand’s defining qualities.
