Should Toyota Motor PH Have Brought In The C-HR+ EV Instead Of The Urban Cruiser?
Toyota Motor Philippines currently has two battery electric vehicles and subjectively, they couldn’t have been more different. On one hand, there’s the bZ4X—a compact BEV that’s so good and so well-priced that we named it as one of our Top Picks of 2025. On the other, there’s the Urban Cruiser—a sub-compact BEV that’s more curry than sushi in character and one that was saddled (heavily) with the so-called “Toyota Tax.”

The Subaru WRX Wagon Offers Performance Level Driving For Everyday Living
Before there were crossovers, there were wagons. These were the classic modes of transport that allowed you to move people and a good amount of cargo without having your car look like a stackable, as how most sedans would turn out to be once packing was completed. This kind of vehicle format quickly inspired the development of a hatch. Not only is it functional, but it offers the most practical way to load and unload whatever cargo you may have with little obstruction.
