The 2023 Torres Brings SsangYong Back To Its Rugged SUV Looks

Just a month after Korean automaker Ssangyong teased it, they’ve officially unveiled their all-new 5-seater mid-sized SUV: the 2023 Torres.

Thanks to today’s record fuel prices, readers have asked us to explore once more if going for an electrified vehicle—hybrid or battery electric—makes sense.

The second was when Toyota Motor Philippines brought in the Corolla Altis Hybrid. And the third was when Nissan Philippines officially launched the Leaf locally.

Well, that was fast. Barely a year after its introduction in the Southeast Asian region, Honda has decided to discontinue the RS Turbo variant, at least for the Thai market. Taking its place as the top-of-the-line variant for Honda’s compact sedan is the Civic RS e:HEV.
