Review: 2027 Kia EV3 GL


“Battery Electric Vehicle” and “Affordable,” aren’t muttered in the same sentence, typically; unless we talk about the countless lookalike, and quite frankly, drivealike Chinese EV drivel in the marketplace today.

Now, here comes an offering from a brand with a long and storied history, backed up by a damn-good driving experience that feels twice its asking price. Best of all, it still doesn’t break the bank.

Review: 2026 GAC Aion V Premium


Everyone and their grandmother wants a piece of that sub-P 1.7-million electrified compact crossover segment; a segment which has, for all intents and purposes, replaced the pickup-based passenger vehicle, as the default family car of choice among many Filipinos.

Small car expert—that’s what people all over the world have called Suzuki because they make small cars that are memorable to drive. Remember the aptly named Swift? The very efficient Celerio? Or their current entry-level S-Presso? These cars are the reason why I was expecting a small car to be their first EV. Earlier this year, it was revealed to be something bigger.

Review: 2026 Toyota Urban Cruiser BEV GLX 2WD


Ah, the Toyota Urban Cruiser. It’s a car that’s been the subject of my scrutiny and even ridicule as early as its first drive experience last March for two reasons.
