Second-Hand Prices of the Suzuki Jimny are Going Up
Whether new or used, the all-new Suzuki Jimny is turning into somewhat of an enigma. With dealers low on stock, and demand still remaining high, the diminutive body-on-frame SUV is still commanding a premium over its suggested retail price locally. This is surprising given the slowdown in new car sales resulted in carmakers actually throwing hefty discounts.

Review: 2020 Suzuki S-Presso GL
Half a million pesos won’t get you much car these days. What was once the price range for mid or even high-grade compacts will now net you a no-frills micro car. This is as basic as motoring gets, a slight upgrade from having to settle for a second-hand jalopy or even taking public transportation. That said, Suzuki’s come up with a favorable reputation in the segment, a streak it continues with the 2020 S-Presso.

2019 Suzuki Jimny Second Take: A Practical Choice for SUV Lovers
The Filipino’s love for compact vehicles has not waned, despite the growing demand for higher, more practical SUVs. In this regard, the introduction of the Suzuki Jimny could not have come at a more perfect time. Dating back to 1998 and then landing in local shores in 2016 with a fresh, irresistably cute, and undoubtedly attractive design, the Jimny claimed fans among regular motorists and offroaders alike. It was utilitarian in a small, maneuverable package.

Review: 2019 Suzuki Jimny GL M/T
Start the Suzuki Jimny and close your eyes. Without a doubt, you’ll find it as one of the most unrefined vehicles in the market today. Have someone drive you around, and the experience will give you motion sickness. It’s bouncy, unrefined, noisy. You’ll be hard-pressed to think why someone would spend a million bucks on one when you can find some other small SUV that’s a better daily than this. Then you open your eyes and you’re smitten. It’s cute and different. Be warned though, it’s not for everyone.

First Drive: 2020 Kia Seltos 1.6 T-GDi
Samgyupsal. Black Pink. Finger hearts. Korean pop culture has invaded the Philippines in a very big way. So, it’s a surprise that their cars haven’t done the same. Though they’ve made in-roads in some segments—small budget cars and people movers to name two, they’re not household names yet. In life, changes happen in small, baby steps; once in a while though, a giant leap happens. For Kia, the Seltos is one of those times.

Review: 2019 Suzuki Swift GLX CVT
A wise person once advised not to judge a book by its cover. If you do, it might walk (or in this case, drive) away without having told its story. Such is my experience with the 2019 Suzuki Swift GLX. Admittedly, when I hear the brand, the only model that comes to mind is the Jimny; that is, until now.
