Mitsubishi PH Celebrates 60th Anniversary With Limited Edition Xpander Cross

With Mitsubishi Motors Philippines celebrating its 60th (diamond) anniversary this year, it was inevitable that they’d be releasing special edition models to commemorate this milestone. Well, the first vehicle to get the treatment is the Xpander Cross which has received the limited edition 60th Anniversary treatment.

The All-New Honda BR-V Is The Segment's Standout

Seven-seaters are all about practicality. For the Filipino family, it has to be safe, reliable, but most of all, offers comfort and joy with every journey. The All-New Honda BR-V is all about that and more. It is packed with all the features for a smooth daily commuter, while providing great value in function and affordability. Here’s why the All-New Honda BR-V is the perfect choice for your entire family, across all generations.

Stress-free, fuss-free ownership

Honda is well-known for durable and reliable vehicles. It offers great quality and value, and every Honda owner can attest to it. On top of that is the incredible convenience of its Preventive Maintenance Service (PMS) of just every six (6) months or 10,000-kilometers, whichever comes first. To put it simply, it’s a twice a year schedule, compared to the typical four times a year for other brands.

Powerful, yet fuel-efficient

Powered by a class-leading engine, the All-New BR-V delivers 121PS maximum engine power for a smooth and effortless drive. In the Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP) sanctioned fuel eco run, the BR-V models achieved remarkable figures at 24.71 km/L (1.5 V CVT), 22.61 km/L (1.5 S CVT), and 21.48 km/L (1.5 VX Honda SENSING). These impressive fuel mileage are due to the improved 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine and CVT gearbox, resulting in better power delivery and improved fuel efficiency.

In addition, Honda owners can enjoy even bigger savings through Honda’s Sure Save Treats program by scheduling PMS every six (6) months to earn special discount vouchers of 10 to 20 percent on PMS parts and lubes and/or others.

Stylish and safe

The All-New Honda BR-V is rugged, sporty, and head-turning. The generous, comfortable cabin is fitted with great features for every passenger’s enjoyment, such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and wireless connectivity - all integrated into the 7-inch infotainment system.

In terms of safety, the All-New BR-V has achieved a 5-star rating in the ASEAN NCAP (VX), equipped with standard features, such as driver and front passenger airbags, side, and side curtain airbags, anti-lock braking system, and vehicle stability assist for the 1.5 VX Honda SENSING variant.

In addition, for those who are looking for more power and a more exciting driving experience, the All-New Honda BR-V S gives you the choice of a 6-speed manual (MT). The Honda BR-V S MT gives you improved control over the vehicle – the speed, the gears, the fun.

The All-New Honda BR-V stands out as the affordable and practical choice. Check it out (and make a reservation) at any of Honda’s 37 authorized dealerships or visit https://www.hondaphil.com/ for more information.

The 2023 Honda BR-V's Mechanical Polish Makes It Worth Every Cent

Is The All-New Honda BR-V The Most Affordable 7-Seater SUV To Own?

When looking for a new car, bulk of the attention is centered around the list price. But what’s also critical is the overall ownership experience and cost.

Given that the ownership aspect may stretch upwards of 5 years, it should be an experience where it’s stress-free and low cost.

Subaru's First Small SUV Shows Something Terribly Wrong With The Brand

Subaru just dusted off a nameplate they haven’t used in a while: the Rex. This time though, it’s not being attached to a sub-compact mini or a kei car, but they’re slapping it on the first sub-compact SUV. And if it looks very familiar, well, it should be.

You know what I’m talking about — the car that gains popularity overnight, then blends into the woodwork as soon as the next big launch comes into focus.
