President Marcos Just Got A Personal Taste Of Beyond Zero

President Ferdinand R. “Bongbong” Marcos recently got a taste of Toyota’s Beyond Zero initiative as he took the wheel of the hydrogen-powered Corolla Cross H2 Concept at the Malacañan Palace. In addition, he was also presented with the next-generation Tamaraw as a sign of Toyota’s continued commitment to the local automotive manufacturing industry.

For the Silent Generation and Baby Boomers, it was the Manila Trading & Supply Company, a subsidiary of the Cleveland-Akron Bag Company of Ohio, Inc., trading cotton goods, marine and gas engines, marine hardware and, from 1918, automobiles.

BSB Junrose Corporation has announced the addition of German motor oil brand, Liqui Moly to its roster of brands.

Supporting ACMobility’s auto brands, particularly Kia and BYD, which are fast shifting towards all-electric mobility, the company’s infrastructure arm is hard at work to grow its charging network.

Jetour Auto Philippines didn’t just bring in their X50 5-seater crossover to the Philippine International Motor Show. On the other side of the size spectrum, they brought in a new variant of their hit, the T2 4x4 SUV known as the T2 Terminator.

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines brings back the Montero Sport Ralliart and the Xpander Cross Outdoor Edition for buyers seeking something more active and adventurous than your usual family ride, especially when it comes to style.

PIMS: Changan Really Needs The Hunter REEV To Succeed

Changan Auto Philippines seems to be all over the place when it comes to its product line-up. Despite having a seven-vehicle-line-up with a wide price range (P 654,000 to P 2,719,000)—they can never seem to stick the landing with any of them. All of them pretty much fade into obscurity. They’re certainly hoping for a change of luck with the Hunter pickup truck.

Isuzu Philippines didn’t just show off its N-Series EV at Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS), they also showed what would happen if the mu-X got the “VIP” treatment.

BYD wants your attention and they could very well have it with the all-new Seal. The world’s best-selling New Energy Vehicle brand (and the Philippines’s best-selling EV brand) now has enthusiasts in mind with this 530-horsepower all-wheel drive sports sedan.

PIMS: Mitsubishi DST Concept Revealed Globally

We referred to it as the DST Concept early this month (thanks to some website metadata), and we got it right. Mitsubishi Motors globally premiered the DST Concept—a new mid-sized 7-seater SUV concept that, when it hits production, will join the brand’s ASEAN three-row line-up alongside the Montero Sport / Pajero Sport and Xpander.

If the 383-horsepower Nissan Z isn’t enough car for you, how about the new Nissan Z Nismo? Building on the solid foundations of the rear-wheel drive sportscar, this version packs additional power, a tuned suspension, and revised aero.

All attention over at Nissan may have been at the Nissan Z Nismo, but the brand also previewed two vehicles that will hit showrooms real soon: the X-Trail e-Power and the Magnite.

As predicted about a week ago, Suzuki Auto Philippines is previewing the Jimny Rhino Edition which will be made available in both 3- and 5-door variants.

Well, well, well…how’s this for something we got right? Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) did show a battery electric vehicle (BEV) and it wasn’t the D-Max EV. Instead, it was the N-Series EV as we guessed way back in August.

BMW is expanding its all-electric BMW i range with the introduction of the i5 Touring. And in an interesting twist, this wagon packs the top-spec M60 designation.

Jetour Auto Philippines is entering the compact crossover segment with the X50—one of the country’s most crowded and most competitive segments.

After its soft launch early this year, Mazda Philippines is now officially an authorized distributor of AutoExe tuning parts and accessories. The partnership, formalized at the 9th Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS), exemplifies Mazda Philippines’ commitment to deliver a customer-centric approach that goes beyond the norm. At PIMS, a wide range of AutoExe parts have been fitted onto the Mazda3, CX-60, and MX-5 showcasing the personalization potential of these Mazda vehicles.

Chery Auto Philippines is updating its entry-level SUV, the Tiggo 2 Pro for 2025. The new sub-compact SUV now sports a more modern look together with higher standard features and specs.

A car company that is deeply passionate about driving, it’s Mazda’s mission to bring a joyful and effortless experience that makes drivers and passengers feel revitalized. This central tenet—Jinba-ittai or the seamless connection between man and machine—is the soul of every Mazda vehicle.

Ford Philippines has finally given its performance truck, the Ranger Raptor the engine it deserves: a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6.

If you find the Honda Civic Type R still a bit too pedestrian for your tastes, how’s this for a surprise. Honda Cars Philippines is bringing in just five of these ultra-special Mugen Civic Type R Group. This becomes the most exclusive variant of the Civic Type R in the country.

Shown at the One Honda Electrification event last September, Honda Cars Philippines has now officially launched the new 2025 Civic for the Philippine market.

San Miguel Corporation (SMC) reports that its toll roads across Luzon are operating normally and remain free of flooding, despite the heavy rains brought by Tropical Storm Kristine over the past 48 hours.

After being the first to confirm what it was launching at the Philippines International Motor Show, Kia Philippines distributor, ACMobility, has finally unveiled the 2025 EV9.

VinFast Philippines has adjusted the pricing of its VF7 all-electric compact SUV during its local debut at the Philippine EV Summit.

The boxy Jaecoo EJ6 has made its appearance at the 12th Philippine EV Summit at the SMX Convention Center. Slated for a market release “soon,” the EJ6 is available for test drives and pre-orders at the three-day show.
