Here’s what you get from this P3.98-M package
Hyundai continues to electrify its lineup, and one of the latest models to get that treatment is the all-new Hyundai Palisade. The Korean brand's full-size SUV is now a hybrid, and it comes in a very competitive P3.98-
Once upon a time, Renault actually had representation in the Philippines
I barely got a chance to really know my Uncle Alex. He was a tall gentleman with a big voice; I was actually scared of him. Sadly, he fell ill and passed away when I was just six years old. But I
Are electrified pickups starting to pick up in the market?
We don't have a lot of electrified pickups here in the Philippines. Despite that, Changan has still taken a bet with the Changan Nevo Hunter REEV 4x4 Knight. The Chinese carmaker hopes to pull more buyers to the range-extended pickup
A proper sign of things to come
It looks like a Toyota Yaris. A Yaris with a bodykit, yes. A Yaris with a suspiciously extended wheelbase, certainly. A Yaris covered in some sort of digital camouflage, for sure. It isn't a Yaris. Not in any way that matters,
A proper comparo between two heavy hitters
There are only a few greater rivalries in the Philippine automotive market than the Nissan Patrol and the Toyota Land Cruiser. Both of these large SUVs have dominated their segment for decades, and they won't be going away anytime soon.The
Up against MPVs, compact to midsize crossovers, and everything in between
The Mitsubishi Destinator is an entirely new nameplate from the Japanese carmaker, and it is looking to make a splash in the Philippines. With a seven-seater cabin and plenty of cargo space, the Destinator is gearing up to go up against
As the kids say these days, “it’s so peak”
It's safe to say that 1982 was not a very good time for the Philippines. A major economic crisis was just around the corner, which itself was triggered by political instability, bringing the country to the brink of bankruptcy.It was
Before the luxury big-body SUVs, the LC was all about utility
In September of 2014, the Sky Blue 1982 Toyota Land Cruiser BJ40 pictured here was what greeted visitors to the Philippine International Motor Show. It was (and still is) one of the finest examples of the model at the time, and it
It embodies Japan’s track record of making iconic quick cars
It's alive and well-if you've got swimming pools of cash sloshing about. Even the ultimate working-class hero car-the rocket-propelled hatch-is now aimed at people who bank where they ski.Hot hatches have become an expensive
Affordable and cheerful—or just affordable?
The subcompact crossover market is a fickle one in 2026. There now exist various specifications and layouts at various price points. In fact, there is now a decent selection of EVs and hybrids at this price, but what happens if you are
How much do you think it should be priced?
Fifth-generation Kia Sportage? Yes, it is-as we've confirmed, it's making a comeback to the Philippine market. And if Nissan finally follows through on all its hints to bring back the X-Trail, that'll be two OG nameplates
Jetour’s most complete product yet
Electrified SUVs are having a moment in 2026. Over the past few months, we've seen Toyota debut two fully electric crossovers, while Geely looks to make its local comeback with both hybrid and battery-powered options. And given the current fuel
Is this the starter hybrid for you?
As I write this, the prices of gas and diesel have already breached P90/L and P130/L, respectively, and it doesn't look like the price hikes will slow down anytime soon. Timely, then, that I've just spent a week
A Philippine-built German classic
Hard to believe, but in the early '70s, two-door coupes were a thing in the Philippines, with buyers spoilt for choice of different models waiting to be driven off showroom floors. A selection of the cars on offer were the Datsun
Because fuel prices are hitting triple digits per liter
Fuel prices, to our dismay, are still on the rise. Some fuel stations have even resorted to writing the prices on cards and sticking them on tarpaulins because their digital signboards can't accommodate gas prices in the P100/L mark. With
Despite some numb, gluey steering
Let's dive into code-speak. The first M3 in 1986-the square boxy one-was loosely based on the E30 3-Series and had a four-cylinder engine. That M3 really was a homologation special, spun off a car created for
It’s the second-highest trim on offer
The new Hyundai Creta is one of the most interesting options in the highly competitive subcompact crossover segment. Its starting price of P1.134 million could be enough to hook car buyers, with three higher variants for them to consider.However, the

Brawn and brains
When Great Wall Motors Philippines relaunched a few years ago, it had big plans. This was a company that first entered with the original Chinese wave in the 2000s, but which saw only marginal success thanks to a line-up that felt

Mitsubishi's product planning department must be stacked with comic/manga geeks. Names like 'Xpander' and 'XForce' scream speed lines and spandex, while the cars themselves look like straight-up Japanese mecha. But the Philippine market loves these crazy new mecha-bishis.
