The Top Gear PH Podcast gang is still down to three people for this eighth episode, but there’s still plenty to cover—especially now that we’re getting so many car launches and new types of vehicles on the local market.

For instance, did you know there are now self-driving buses going around Clark and actually ferrying passengers for free? A new EV has also landed on our shores in the form of the VinFast VF3, and aside from its quirky looks, it comes with a novel battery-subscription option that no other car brand is offering at the moment.

We recently got to try out the BYD Sealion 6, too. For those who are not familiar, it’s a plug-in hybrid, although technically speaking, it’s propelled primarily by the electric motor, with the gasoline engine only kicking in to recharge the battery. Carlo’s review is actually now up, so if you’ve been one of the many people interested in the model, you ought to give it a read here.

This week’s Marketplace Finds focuses on coupes, and Dinzo’s pick was unanimously chosen as the winner, so he has established a two-week streak for this segment and will still choose the category for the next episode. If you want to find out what he and the others found out of all the gems and downright weird cars on the platform, listen to the latest episode via the Spotify link above or by clicking play on the YouTube video below.
