Review: 2022 Suzuki Celerio 1.0 GL AGS
At P 754,000, the Suzuki Celerio is the most expensive sub-B segment hatchback in the market. Putting things into perspective, it’s more expensive than the Toyota Wigo TRD S (P 700,000) and the Kia Picanto EX (P 745,000); heck, it’s pricier even than the Honda Brio RS (P 730,000) and that one carries a larger 1.2-liter motor. This seems like madness, but according to Suzuki Philippines, there’s reasoning behind all this, and that’s down to technology. However, after spending a couple of days with this diminutive hatchback, yes, you do see some flashes of brilliance now and then, but they’re never enough to outweigh its rather prohibitive price point.

As Buyers Embrace EVs, Can The Power Grid Handle The Additional Load?
Food for thought: more than 60 percent of the electric grid is powered by burning dirty fossil fuels. Using that dirty grid to charge electric vehicles (EV) only adds pollution and greenhouses to the air everyone breathes. Thus, in order to maximize the benefits of switching over to EVs for a pollution-free future, even the charging methods must be taken into account.
