Review: 2025 BMW X5 xDrive50e M Sport


The X5 burst into the scene at the turn of the century and was the first SUV that emphasized “Sport” over “Utility”, so much so that BMW coined the term, “Sport Activity Vehicle.” Over the 26 years and four generations that followed, the X5 continued to be the gold standard and whatever it did, rivals like the Audi Q7, Lexus RX, and whatever dreadful thing Mercedes-Benz comes up with these days, followed. Hard to believe this current-generation—the G05—was launched way back in 2018, because as far as we’re concerned it’s still a darn good drive.

Review: 2025 Seres Aito 5 RE-EV Premium


There’s zero expectations when it comes to driving a Seres, or if you prefer its new name, Seres Aito. As an automobile brand under the Seres Group, it’s got a complicated history with several name changes. It’s a Chinese car brand, but founded, of all places in California as a company that specializes in vehicle R&D. When it partnered with Huawei, it briefly became Huawei Aito (Adding Intelligence to Auto) in 2021, before becoming Seres in 2023, and then reverting to Aito in 2024. Today, it’s positioned as the Seres Group’s premium EV range with three (another one’s coming) models. The Seres Aito 5 that you see here serves as their entry-level model.

2026 BMW iX Has More Power And Range. It's Less Ugly Too


BMW has refreshed its all-electric iX “sport activity vehicle” for 2026 and thankfully, it’s less ugly than before. Whether it’s just because we’ve gotten used to BMW’s polarizing design of late is another matter, but what everyone can agree on is that the new iX is less harsh on the eyes.

You Poor People Didn't Buy The Land Cruiser VX, So Toyota Motor Philippines Canned It

Trust The Car Bro: Driving The Audi Q8 e-Tron From Manila To Baguio (And Back) On A Single Charge


I’ve already driven the Audi Q8 e-tron before; only it was more on fun driving than anything else. I didn’t bother putting it to its limit range-wise, because that would mean I can’t enjoy its 408 horses and 664 Nm of pull. I just treated it like I would my phone: charge it when you have time so that you always have a good amount of range buffer. What I consumed for the day, I made up for by charging it at night.
