The Denza B5 Is Groot In A Suit
To be honest, I got sad when I learned that they lent me the Denza B5. I was originally aiming for the B8 since it has Adaptive Suspension and I’d like to try it out on the horrendous roads of Bulacan. I didn’t even try the B5 during its launch—that’s how much I snubbed it.

The Kia Sportage Turbo HEV Is A High Breed Of Hybrid
Hybrids can have different breeds. Some, these are mostly from Japanese brands, aim for fuel efficiency. Then, there are some, who feel sporty but a bit arcade-ish; they’re fast, but the engagement just isn’t there. Kia manages to combine the two with their Turbo Hybrid system. Only, they’ve made it better in the Sportage. Their global best-selling model has finally arrived in the Philippines and after two days of driving it, it’s easy to understand why many are flocking towards it. It drives the fine line of efficiency and sportiness without much effort.

Review: 2026 Hyundai Venue GLS 1.6 AT
The Hyundai Venue has had a very interesting history in the Philippines so far. The nameplate was introduced in 2020 as the last model sold under Hyundai’s former distributor. However, before it could gain widespread attention (the small crossover segment was starting to boom at the time), it was basically flushed out of showrooms before the Koreans took over. So, who would have thought that five years on, it’ll make a comeback more or less unchanged.
