Review: 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 Calligraphy AWD Long Range
The Ioniq 9 is Hyundai’s third all-electric offering in the Philippines. It’s also their biggest and most expensive. At P 4,580,000, it has crept up into true luxury category and, therefore, makes it one challenging sale. Nonetheless, it serves as a test on whether a Korean luxury vehicle can be taken seriously outside its typical clientele of expats and diplomats. After a week’s worth of driving, it can be summed up in a way that its luxury cost is entirely justified. Apart from one nagging issue.

The Chedeng Goes Modern With The Mercedes-Benz GLC 350e PHEV
If you grew up a car guy in the Philippines, chances are you heard your uncles and fathers talk about “Chedeng,” the localized moniker for Mercedes-Benz. To them, the brand represented the very best that motoring could offer in terms of luxury, class, status, and in some cases performance. With most of my older automotive influences (my dad and uncles) growing up in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, it’s easy for me to see why they look at Benz with rose-tinted glasses. During those years, the brand was at the height of its domination, leading in almost all aspects of the automotive industry.

Red Hot All-Electric Chili Pepper: 2026 Porsche Cayenne Electric First Drive
Legends aren’t born; they’re forged. Such is the history associated with the Cayenne, a model that’s historically important for Porsche. After all, if not for its very existence, the German sportscar maker would have succumbed to financial trouble in the early 2000s. Ultimately, its popularity—more than 1.5 million examples have been sold across three generations—was the wind that Porsche’s sails needed to produce the sportscars they produce today. Now, the Cayenne’s role has embarked on a dramatic transformation. As it enters its fourth generation, it takes a leap into the full electric era. In the process, it becomes a venerable technical tour-de-force.
