Driving the Nürburgring Nordschleife Is An N-thusiast’s Dream Come True

I just crossed one off my bucket list. Just when I thought cruising on Highway 1 in the United States and ploughing through the sand dunes in the Sahara Desert couldn’t be topped, I did this: hot laps on the Nürburgring Nordschleife. And mind you, I wasn’t here on the invitation by some German brand, no; I’m here thanks to, of all car companies, Hyundai. Wait, what?

The countdown begins for the third season of the country’s fastest race series with the SeaOil Radical Challenge Philippines set to return to the tracks this September. And along with the expansion to two race categories is new event partner, BPI.

Ford Philippines is bringing back its much-awaited Truck Month this September where customers can enjoy a wide array of deals on the Ford Ranger.

JAC Motors believes that now is the right time to enter the Philippine market. Four months after JAC, as a brand, was previewed at the Manila International Auto Show (MIAS), the state-owned automaker based in Anhui, believes they’re more than ready to serve the local car buying public.

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) aims to highlight Mitsubishi Motors-ness and surprise the public with its product lineup —along with something unexpected— at the 9th Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS), happening from October 24 to 27, 2024, at the World Trade Center, Pasay City. MMPC will be among the seventeen brands showcasing their take on this year’s theme, “Dare. Drive. The Future Redefined.”

BYD is taking the world by storm. They’ve been around for quite a while now but 2023 was their strongest year yet when they ended up as the numero uno New Energy Vehicle (NEV) brand globally. That means they sold more hybrids and battery-electric vehicles than any other brand. Their ‘NEV’ positioning is quite foreign to us though.

Amidst the slowing demand for battery electric vehicles, Hyundai has announced that they’ll be expanding their hybrid line-up, including range extenders. All this is part of the Korean automaker’s mid- to long-term strategy called, Hyundai Way. The plan includes additional investments in BEV tech and in-car software.

Review: 2024 BYD Dolphin EV

When it comes to electric vehicles, there comes a certain level of expectation with the two main ones being relentless acceleration and a high-tech execution. Naturally, that’s possible because EVs also often come with an expensive price tag to match. Now, that’s not the case with the BYD Dolphin. Priced at just P 1.398-million, it’s quite attainable even for everyman standards. Best of all: it’s not a shit box to drive. It’s great whether you look at it from an EV or B-segment hatchback perspective.

Jeep is more than ready to take you out into the wild as they pulled the sheets on the new Wrangler Rubicon. They were insistent that this is more than a pretty face as they fitted it with features that make it more than capable to take on nature. Best of all, it’s available in 2-door and 4-door bodies so those who like doing adventures with a group or solo can have a Wrangler for them.

BYD Cars Philippines is showing off what could very well be their most important offering yet: the first-ever Seagull small EV hatchback. Previewed at the BYD Tech Tour at Ayala TriNoMa Mall in Quezon City (until September 1), the Seagull will officially hit retail sometime in September.
