We need more station wagons
Unless you live in Europe, the station wagon is pretty much a niche segment these days. It's been displaced by the crossover and MPV as the family car of choice. Totally understandable why that's happened, but there's something about
It’s not too late to start making petitions
Some of you might be asking what's with our infatuation with station wagons. In a world that's now dominated by crossovers and SUVs, the good ol' station wagon is a breath of fresh air. Of course, there will those who
The world doesn’t need a V10 wagon, but Audi made us want one
So the Volkswagen empire used V10s as a pricey form of one-upmanship. A great example of that was second-generation Audi RS6 Avant. The first one used a 4.2-liter twin-turbo V8 to propel a widebody family estate into

Because the world doesn’t just revolve around pickups and SUVs
Remember when Ford said it was letting go of its hatchbacks, wagons, and sedans? They made that announcement a few years ago, and have since discontinued most of its vehicles that weren't SUV or pickup-shaped.That said, not all of
The M3 wagon has beaten its own record around the ’Ring
The BMW M3 CS Touring is now the fastest wagon to have lapped the Nurburgring, having beaten the previous record-holder by half a second. That previous record holder being... Itself.Well, the non-CS version of itself. Back in 2022, on

Doing its part in saving the wagons
While popular in Europe, station wagons are more a niche model than go-to buy in the Philippines. Blame it on constant flooding and bad roads, but these cars generally don't have a wide audience here. You can also blame it
It’s the only wagon in its class
If you're in the market for a small luxury station wagon, there is quite literally just one choice. That would be the Mercedes-Benz CLA, more specifically, the Shooting Brake. It's the only wagon among its compatriots, as the Audi
The most powerful and ridiculous wagon on sale today
The BMW M3 Competition xDrive Touring is a mouthful of a name for what we find is a simple car. Let's break down that long name: This is a BMW, obviously; M3 means this is the sportiest version of the venerable
Could BYD Cars PH and ACMobility be adding a wagon to their lineup?
The BYD Sealion 5 DM-i may be on its way to the Philippines after being granted homologation papers by the Land Transportation Office. It's not to be confused with the BYD Seal 5 DM-i sedan and the Sealion 6

We’ll miss the old wagon look
One thing that makes the Subaru Outback unique is, well, its appearance: Take a Subaru Legacy wagon, add some body cladding, give it a good whack of extra ground clearance, and a bit more off-road capability. It's a tried-and-
This thing looks sexy as heck
Wagons rule. We'll never not say that. But no matter what we think, it's true that these long five-door vehicles are a dying breed.That being said, there are still a good number of station wagons alive and kicking
It looks less wagon-y, too
There's a lot to like about the Subaru Outback. It has all the practicalities of a station wagon, all while having a fair bit of off-road capabilities. If anything, it's has all the makings of the perfect all-rounder.
It’s likely aimed at the European market
Say station wagon and Chinese cars are likely the last thing on your mind. More often than not, it's the European marques that offer one, along with a few Japanese automakers. Okay, there are a few Chinese ones out there, but
We don’t even get the standard Crown here
Let's be honest here for a second. As much as we love wagons, these cars don't really sell well here. The last time we counted, there are less than ten station wagons you can buy in the Philippines. It's
No, it's not the A7
This is the new, combustion-engined Audi A6 Avant. You'll note it is not called the Audi A7 Avant. Or Audi A6ICE Avant. Or Audi e=MCEstate. Or... well, you get the drift.Ingolstadt's binned its strategy of using even

We do actual wagon stuff with one to find out
I'm probably in a minority here, but I'd like to avoid going straight for an SUV when it comes to choosing a family car. Perhaps it's because I'm a bit of a traditionalist. If all you need is
The most powerful version of BMW’s coolest car
You wait ages for an M3 wagon, and then two come along at once. Sort of. This is the new BMW M3 CS Touring, the fastest, most powerful version of Bavaria's coolest new car.Clearly making hay while the Audi RS4

It has shades of the Taycan Sport Turismo
Geely-owned carmaker Zeekr has revealed its latest model-a rather excellent-looking wagon, we must say. Dubbed the Zeekr 007 GT (or 7 GT for markets outside of China), it's the big-booted version of the all-electric 007 sedan
The Legacy further cements its, er, legacy
The Subaru Legacy will officially be axed by 2025. With declining midsize sedan sales, Subaru has decided to axe that model which, to be honest, makes good business sense.Still, it's a sad announcement, and we're sad to see yet
Finally, a new wagon
BMW left jaws on the floor after pulling the wraps off the new i5 M60 Touring. The all-electric wagon straddles the fine line between luxurious comfort (from its 5-Series heritage) and incredibly fast performance (courtesy of BMW M innovation).Unveiled
