Not only did we have one of the them in our garage, it quickly escalated to fill the streets of Metro Manila, becoming a prime choice for first-time car buyers or for starting professionals.

Review: 2022 Changan Alsvin 1.5 Platinum DCT


The name, Alsvin has certainly raised some eyebrows. At first, it seems this new sub-compact sedan from Changan has a typo in its name. While the automaker has provided no definitive reason behind its name, “Alsvin,” is actually a mythical Norse horse which also happens to mean, “swift.” Now, whether that’s an intentional shot across Suzuki’s bow is something best left to the imagination.

Ironically, when there seems to be no end to your to-do list, there also seems to be less time available to get everything done. With the country — and the rest of the world, for that matter — lifting its borders and easing restrictions, there is a lot of catching up to do. We’re talking about the little things, which include the day-to-day routine and errands that have either been put on hold or even forgotten in the past couple of years.

Review: 2022 Suzuki Celerio 1.0 GL AGS


At P 754,000, the Suzuki Celerio is the most expensive sub-B segment hatchback in the market. Putting things into perspective, it’s more expensive than the Toyota Wigo TRD S (P 700,000) and the Kia Picanto EX (P 745,000); heck, it’s pricier even than the Honda Brio RS (P 730,000) and that one carries a larger 1.2-liter motor. This seems like madness, but according to Suzuki Philippines, there’s reasoning behind all this, and that’s down to technology.
