The All-New Land Rover Defender Has Arrived and You (Sadly) Have to Pay a Bit More to Get One

The wait is now over. After a seven-month pre-selling tease, Land Rover Philippines has announced the arrival of the all-new Defender. An icon re-imagined for the 21st century, the Defender is built for adventurous hearts and curious minds.

Crossover specialist Chery Auto, distributed locally by United Asia Automotive Group Inc. (UAAGI), is crossing over to a new genre—not just for them, but for the whole Philippine car industry.

Kia has finally taken the wraps off its new small SUV: the Sonet. To be sold in India first, the Korean carmaker has recently confirmed that it’ll make its way to other global markets soon thereafter.

With stricter quarantine measures re-imposed in parts of the country once again, many will be relying on delivery services for their everyday essential needs. To help ensure the safety of delivery riders, PayMaya is encouraging them to use contactless payments via PayMaya QR in partner merchants, which will also give them additional benefits and rewards as well.

Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. mounted its first-ever online Dealer Conference to honor the achievements of its dealerships. As part of the new normal, the annual recognition event was shared to the 34 dealers nationwide through an online platform.

There’s a shake up atop the management of Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC). The Japanese carmaker announced that Osamu Masuko resigned today as chairman of the board and representative executive officer of MMC due to health reasons.

After a 128-day delay, Nissan Philippines is now announcing that its 370Z sportscar is now available at selected dealers nationwide starting today.

Bowmore Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky and Aston Martin have unveiled their first collaborative creation: the Black Bowmore DB5 1964. With only 25 bottles for sale, this will be an exceptionally rare bottle of single malt whisky.

The Corolla Cross is coming very soon, and with that Toyota Motor Philippines is finally going to devour on a piece of the compact crossover pie. And while spec and pricing details will certainly leak before its launch, let’s talk about one thing: just how sloppy the design is.

Apparently, the Toyota Prius C is Still Around and It Gets the Gazoo Racing Treatment

Pardon me if I sit here, stunned. Apparently, the Toyota Prius c (aka Aqua) is still pretty much a thing in Japan that the carmaker just gave it the trendy Gazoo Racing treatment.

Nissan in the Philippines has enhanced its digital strategy with the introduction of the brand’s first virtual showroom in the Asia & Oceania region, giving customers immersive online access to the current Nissan line-up.

Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) finds ways to keep the country moving forward and with that continues with their Restart Your Journey promo until the end of August.

The 1992 McLaren F1 was something that world had never seen before. And, until Gordon Murray delivered the new T.50, it’s something we never expected to see again. It was a car made completely without compromise, perhaps why it is now one of the most sought-after cars in the world.

When Mazda first released information on their North America-exclusive Mazda3 Turbo, they didn’t give much detail except for the output of its force-fed 2.5-liter Skyactiv-G engine. As it gets closer to its launch States side, the Japanese carmaker has released more info, more photos, and a list of appearance packages they’re making available.

Get Selected Jaguar and Land Rover Models at Zero Percent Interest for 5 Years

All British Cars (ABC), the sole authorized dealership of Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles announces a five-year zero percent interest offer on selected vehicles until the end of August.

If you’re thinking of buying a CTEK battery charger, now would be a good time as the official distributor has brought back their CTEK MXS 5.0 Value Pack. Best of all? You can now get it online via Lazada.

Taking a very different approach compared to typical supercars with their fancy electronics or complicated hybrid or even turbo tech, Gordon Murray is showing off his ground-breaking T.50 in full for the very first time, and naturally from the man behind the McLaren F1, it’s mighty impressive.

The Department of Transportation (DOTr) will now be requiring face shields for everyone taking public transportation starting August 15, 2020.

In a rather unique promo (and one that pretty much sums up the current situation), Chery Auto Philippines is giving away a free UV disinfection lamp for every new vehicle sold until August 31, 2020.
