Honda Discontinues Civic RS Turbo In Thailand


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.

This Could Be The Toyota Corolla Altis We'll Be Getting In 2023


Along with 2023 updates for the North American version of the Corolla, Toyota has now done the same for its compact sedan for Europe as well. Like its counterpart across the Atlantic, it gets the brand’s latest-generation hybrid tech allowing it to pack more punch, while still improving its fuel efficiency. Plus, because the ASEAN Corolla Altis is based off the European version, this could be our first look at what we stand to get by next year.

Review: 2022 Honda Civic V Turbo Honda SENSING


The Civic is one vehicle Honda can’t get wrong. While some generations are better than others, they’ve always managed to push the compact car envelope in one way or another. That trend continues in the 2022 model. Throughout its history, it has generally followed a pattern of revolutionary redesign followed by more cautious evolution. As the all-new, eleventh-generation model, the 2022 Civic falls into the evolution category. But while the basic ingredients are familiar, the right amount of Honda’s secret sauce has been poured in to make it not just the best compact car on offer today, but one of the best new cars you can buy full stop.

Just How Good Is The Base 2022 Honda Civic S Turbo?


Four hundred. That’s the number of 11th generation Civics Honda Cars Philippines has been able to sell so far since its launch in November.

Would You Consider A P1.736M Gazoo Racing-Tuned Corolla Altis?


While the Corolla Altis GR Sport is a global model, it may not take on the same appearance as its counterpart in Europe or Taiwan. Instead, if Toyota Motor Philippines does decide to bring this sporty variant in, expect it to be closer in both looks and specs to the one just launched in Thailand.

Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid: Paving For A Sustainable Way Forward


The harrowing effects of climate change in recent decades have led to the increased discussion on sustainability the world over. When we speak of reducing carbon footprint, the spotlight used to be centered upon segregation, recycling, and safe waste disposal technologies. Fast-forward to today — albeit, recent years — and the quest has gone beyond the household. It is admittedly too slow for most people to adapt to sustainable living at a personal level because there are simply too many factors to consider: research, time, resources, and above all, cost; because the means to clean and green living are not always the most economical for middle-income families.
