Just two years after its local introduction, BYD Cars Philippines has confirmed that it’s almost ready to launch the new Seal 5 DM-i.

Entry-level car models are the most important offerings of any mass-market brand; these are destined to carry the sales volume. BYD’s success in the Philippines is often underscored by the more expensive Sealion models (5 and 6) as well as the Atto and Seagull EVs, but there is a silent killer among them, the true sales king for BYD with an increasing presence on our roads.

The Mitsubishi XFORCE Gets Approval With Its Perfect Balance

Don’t fix what’s not broken. It’s a common quote that should be heard more by politicians with their road projects but in the case of car brands, they see it as a challenge. Leaving things as is will lead to stagnation and so they improve their offerings, despite being already good.

I used to be such a huge fan of Honda’s cars; there was a time when I felt that they had the best lineup. That “time” was very long ago, and I was still a boy, but I remember how my dad brought home our first brand new 2nd-generation CR-V, and he told me it was either this or the Revo, which (no offense to the Revo) was a no-brainer decision to go for the former.

Hyundai Motor Philippines has been quiet the first half of 2026, but that’s about to change this July as the carmaker confirmed its first launch of the year: the new Staria HEV.

Review: 2026 Kia EV5 GLS

At P 2,698,000, the Kia EV5 presents an interesting case. Not only is it priced similarly to other non-Chinese EVs like the Tesla Model Y and Toyota bZ4X, but in big picture terms, it manages to reach price parity with traditional and hybrid compact SUVs. This fact is important as Kia thinks BEVs has reached a cusp—where the era of early adopters has turned to the early majority. All the more reason to play it safer then.
