Review: 2023 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Black Series Ralliart 2WD
There’s no beating around the bush: the Mitsubishi Montero Sport is getting old. The current generation was first launched locally back in 2016 (it was subsequently refreshed in 2019) which means it’s now overshadowed by newer offerings. Yet, there’s still a strong, almost cult-like following for this particular mid-sized SUV, one which this Ralliart version aims to tap.

Out Of My Comfort Zone: Taking The Mazda BT-50 Camping And (Sort Of) Loving It
Try something new, for once—that’s the sort of inspirational content your Gen Z friends share on Facebook, second only to your tita and her daily Bible quote. While that makes for a great excuse to spend their life savings on “experiences,” not even a GIF of Morgan Freeman or Daenerys Targaryen staring stoically will convince me. I’m a man of routine, and that doesn’t bother me at all.

Review: 2023 Toyota RAV4 LTD Hybrid
Sport Utility Vehicles are all gas guzzlers, right? Well, not the Toyota RAV4. Sized smack in the middle of the compact SUV segment, it produces class-leading fuel economy figures, and that’s counting the diesel-fed Honda CR-V. How’s that possible? In a flash of brilliance, the entire RAV4 is now a hybrid. Though you still fill it up with gasoline like Petron XCS in the usual way, there’s an electric motor to share the effort and cut fuel consumption. It’s quite the ace, and this finally helps it shine.
