Review: 2025 GWM Ora 03 500 EV
GWM has a knack for coming up with quirky car names. From the same company that brought the world the Wingle, the Cool Bear, the King Kong Cannon, the Florid, and the Big Dog comes this: the Ora Good Cat. Only, it’s no longer the Good Cat; it’s the Funky Cat. No, scratch that. It’s now known as the Ora 03. Ultimately, credit goes to the Chinese brand’s global ambitions for the very sensible name change, all of which happened in the last five years or so. Whatever you decide calling it—Good, Funky, or otherwise, the product is a cutesy, retro-styled compact hatchback that’s full of design flair, but saddled by forgettable dynamics and an overprotective ADAS system.

Review: 2025 Honda HR-V 1.5 S Honda SENSING
The Honda HR-V is a textbook case of the effects of inflation. When it was launched in 2022, this entry-level variant you see here was priced at P 1.25-million. All things considered, it was a good value crossover. As time marched on and a midcycle refresh came into the picture, its SRP crept up until it settled to P 1.45-million—a P 200,000 increase compared to when it first launched three years ago. With no major changes then and now, this is unsettling not just for the HR-V, but for Honda as a whole, who’ve been slowly, but surely pricing themselves off market.
