Despite changing its brand principle to 'Experience Amazing' in 2017, it feels like Lexus continues to live by the motto it debuted in 1989, 'The Relentless Pursuit of Perfection.' Why?

Let's discuss its looks before we get to the nitty-gritty of the vehicle's performance. The fifth-generation model from 2022 has a completely new look and size.

The name XForce sounds like an 80s Japanese live-action superhero TV series, but it helps Mitsubishi’s newest model get a name recall in an overcrowded compact crossover segment. Sometimes, that’s all it takes — get noticed for the opportunity to flaunt your good qualities, and guess what? The XForce GT has a lot.

Lynk & Co is a relatively new auto brand (founded in 2016) positioned as a 'near premium' marque by its two Chinese parent companies (Geely and Zeekr). In the Philippines, it also sits at the luxury level but is under the umbrella of United Asia Automotive Group, Inc. (UAAGI), the same company distributing Chery, Foton, and BAIC locally.

The Mustang GT is poetry in motion, only if words had muscles. Unlike most sportscars that generally sport sharp noses and shapely fenders, Ford’s pony car exhibits uncanny exterior features, including a flat front, a bulbous hood, and bulging fenders. Ford makes no effort to disguise the GT’s 5.0-liter Coyote V8, which, like the marque’s EcoBoost, is a multi-awarded engine because of its design, technology, and power output (493-PS and 567-Nm of torque).
