GAC Launches the GS3 Emzoom/hires Dingdong Dantes as brand ambassador

GAC and distributor Astara are on an aggressive launching streak. Just months after launching the GS8, the Empow and the Emkoo, they're launching a new 5-seater, subcompact crossover, the GS3 Emzoom.

We're starting to see a pattern in their naming convention but we're still clueless as to how they come up with these names

Like the Emkoo, the Emzoom also features very angular exterior styling. It has a bold grille flanked on both sides by sharp looking headlamps. It has an aggressive looking front diffuser. It appears to have large wheels, probably 18s with low profile tires.

It will come in 3 attractively priced variants:

GS3 Emzoom GS: P998,000
GS3 Emzoom GB: P1,098,000
GS3 Emzoom GL: P1,198,000

It will officially launch on June 30, 2023. By then, we'll get the full specifications

Aside from announcing the imminent launch of the Emkoo, they also announced that Dingdong Dantes will be their new brand ambassador.

Mazda Launches the CX60 in the Philippines

Many have touted Mazda as the BMW of Japan as both brands focus heavily on the driving experience. Mazda's vehicles tend to be more driver-focused than their Japanese mainstream competitors. But from a BMW driver’s point of view, there's one important thing that differentiates Mazda from BMW and other premiere German brands. Most BMWs are rear-wheel drive or rear biased AWD. Mazdas, with the exception of their dedicated sports cars, are front-wheel drive or heavily front biased all-wheel drive. That affects their driving dynamics as it’s hard to get them to oversteer under power. It also affects the balance of the car as most of the weight is at the front. That changes with Mazda's current generation of crossovers. Mazda just launched the CX60 in the Philippines, their first rear-wheel drive biased crossover with a longitudinally mounted inline 6 engine and near 50/50 weight distribution. The CX60 will come in diesel and petrol variants. Both have 3.3L 6-cylinder engines. T...
