For some time now, the City has been Honda Cars Philippines’ (HCPI) strongest-selling model. Year in and year out, the subcompact sedan has been the bread and butter for the Japanese carmaker.

But the market’s changing. Car buyers are now looking for bigger options such as crossovers and MPVs. Proof of that, in fact, is HCPI’s sales charts this year—the BR-V is now the top-selling model in the lineup.
