Mitsubishi unveils the 2022 Outlander seven-seater SUV

The 2022 Outlander is based on the Nissan Rogue (X-Trail), and is the first Mitsubishi product to be developed under the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance.

Comfort, safety and performance in one SUV: Cupra Ateca review

The first thing you may notice about the Ateca is the aggressive, sharp, angular bronze arrowhead-shaped Cupra logo. If you've seen it on the road, you may have tilted your head, squinted your eyes or dug deep into the recesses of your mind – wondering what car brand that logo represents. Officially known as SEAT Cupra, S.A.U., but more commonly known as just Cupra, it is the high-performance twin of the Spanish brand SEAT, a Volkswagen Group (VAG) subsidiary. The Abarth to the Fiat is like the Cupra to the SEAT. On the outside, apart from the logo and wheels, the Cupra Ateca is virtually identical to its SEAT counterpart. A family-friendly SUV, it is great for hauling the family out for a leisurely morning drive and picnic at East Coast Park. The Cupra 19-inch wheels has a sportier design with silver accents like canine teeth around the tyres and Cupra-branded disc brake calipers. Along the LED signal indicators on the side mirrors are little bumps housing side cameras for ... » Learn More about Comfort, safety and performance in one SUV: Cupra Ateca review

Foxconn in talks with Vietnam’s Vinfast on electric car partnership: Sources

TAIPEI/HANOI: Taiwan's Foxconn is in early stage talks with Vietnamese carmaker VinFast about partnering in electric vehicles, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters. Foxconn has proposed acquiring VinFast's EV production lines, the sources said, speaking on condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to speak to the media. But VinFast, a unit of Vietnam's largest conglomerate Vingroup JSC, prefers a partnership as it is keen to brand itself as an eco-friendly automaker and wants to retain its EV business, one of the sources said. Foxconn declined to comment. A Vingroup spokesman said the company had no information on the matter to provide. The world's largest contract manufacturer and Apple Inc supplier has outlined plans to become a major provider of parts and services in the global EV market and any agreement with VinFast would follow deals with Fiat Chrysler and EV startups.

Buckling down to recover lost ground

The Philippine automotive industry in 2019 ended with paltry sales of just 416,627 units sold. This was reported to the Times by three major automotive associations: The Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI), Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA), and the Association of Vehicle Importers and Distributors (AVID). Overall, industry sales registered a minimal 3.69 percent increase in comparison to 2018 figures. What kept the industry afloat was the strong showing of the Commercial Vehicles segment, which included SUV’s, MPV’s, pick-up trucks, crossovers and buses. These vehicles kept the midnight oil burning for an ailing industry as it accounted for 69.18 percent of the consumer pie, with 288,218 units sold; while the Passenger Car segment accounted for 128,409 units sold rounding off the remaining 30.82 percent of the domestic automotive market.

Lucky 13 cars to jumpstart the auto industry

2021 is seen as the year of recovery for the automotive industry, and surely, there’ll be a lot of car launches in a bid to stimulate the market once again. Among the numerous expected car launches this year, here are 13 of these launches to look forward to as we celebrate 13 years of motoring at The Manila Times. Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban I’ve decided to cluster the Tahoe and Suburban as one vehicle since these two SUVs are essentially short- and long-wheelbase versions of each other. Nevertheless, the all-new Tahoe and Suburban feature a more aggressive exterior design than ever before. And as with every succeeding new car, the interior features more tech, space and luxury than its predecessor. Powertrain details for the Philippine market have not yet been revealed, though we certainly hope that Chevy decides to power the Tahoe and Suburban with an all-new Duramax inline-6 3.0-liter diesel engine, which produces 277 hp and 623 Nm of torque.

Most impactful cars sold locally in the last 13 years

Toyota Vios It is unsurprising that the best-selling car of the Philippines over the last 13 years comes in at number 1. The Vios is everywhere — family daily drivers, sales rep cars, tuner builds, and taxis. Through the Vios Racing Festival (and its predecessor, the Vios Cup), this humble compact car has become an accomplished race car, eventually spawning a road-going TRD Edition. It even has its own industry eco-system, as one of the few cars still assembled in the Philippines. All of this has made the Vios a Philippine automotive icon. Mitsubishi Montero Sport While not the first in the now-lucrative pickup-based SUV segment, the second-generation Montero Sport is certainly the most memorable. At its peak, the innovative and feature-filled Montero Sport was the best-selling SUV in the country. Despite there being no evidence of any fault with the car, highly publicized allegations of sudden unintended acceleration (SUA) derailed its market leadership.
