Big Truck Energy, Low Down Payment at P58k!
GWM Philippines is holding firm on pricing even as excise taxes begin to affect the pickup segment. In a move that benefits budget-conscious buyers, the Chinese automaker confirmed it will not increase prices for the newly refreshed GWM Cannon, at least for now.
GWM is offering the new Cannon with an all-in low down payment of just P58,000 until August 31, 2025. This applies to both available variants: the Cannon LUX+ 4×4 AT (P1,488,000) and the higher-spec Cannon SLUX+ 4×4 AT (P1,688,000).
Both variants are powered by a 2.4-liter turbocharged diesel engine, delivering 184 PS and 480 Nm of torque. This is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system with torque-on-demand capability. Compared to the previous 2.0L model, the new engine offers more punch, especially on climbs and rough roads.
Inside, both trucks are equipped with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 50W wireless charger, and a full suite of driver aids. The SLUX+ comes with ventilated leather seats, a 540-degree camera system, adaptive cruise control, and an extensive ADAS suite including lane-keeping assist, blind spot warning, and traffic sign recognition.
While the SLUX+ adds upscale features and more safety tech, even the LUX+ comes with off-road-ready all-terrain tires, a cargo bed roll cover, and advanced essentials like electronic stability control, rear sensors, and a 2-airbag setup.
The Cannon’s updated design leans toward a sportier, more rugged aesthetic with matte black trim, body-colored cladding, and blacked-out accents—giving it a tough but tasteful look. Meanwhile, both variants come with spray-on bed liners and hydraulic-assisted tailgates for added utility.
According to GWM Philippines Brand Head Dax Avenido, the brand is committed to keeping prices stable even after the implementation of the excise tax. “This is our way of ensuring that Filipino drivers still have access to premium pickup trucks at competitive pricing,” he said.
Buyers can also rest easy with GWM’s generous 7-year or 200,000-kilometer warranty, which remains in effect across both models.
Toyota rolls out P179,700 entry deals and up to P100,000 savings this April
Toyota Motor Philippines has launched a month-long promo that highlights low entry costs, flexible financing, and cash discounts across select models. The campaign runs from April 15 to 30, 2026.
The offer centers on three payment options designed to fit different budgets. The Pay Low plan starts with a 15 percent down payment and a 60-month term. It includes one year of comprehensive insurance and three years of LTO registration. Some finance lease deals also waive chattel mortgage fees.
Under this plan, the Toyota ATIV 1.5 HEV CVT in two-tone is available from P179,700. The hybrid sedan posts fuel economy figures of up to 43.7 km/L in city driving and 26.3 km/L combined.
Buyers who prefer lower monthly payments can choose the Pay Light option. The plan spreads amortization over 60 months. The Corolla Cross 1.8 V HEV CVT is offered from P17,403 per month. It delivers 48.5 km/L in urban conditions and 23.6 km/L combined.
Customers ready to pay in full can take the Straight Cash option. Discounts vary by model. The Yaris Cross 1.5 S HEV CVT carries savings of up to P100,000. It returns up to 34.5 km/L in city driving and 27.8 km/L combined.
Toyota also bundles added ownership perks. Select models get free periodic maintenance service and service discount vouchers. Trade-in rebates reach up to P30,000. Some variants include one year of insurance. All new vehicles carry a five-year warranty.
The promo covers selected models and remains subject to approval and availability. Full mechanics and participating units are listed on Toyota’s official promo page.
East West Banking Corporation has launched EastWest AutoCash, a refinancing program that allows vehicle owners to secure funds using their car as collateral while continuing to use it for daily mobility.
The program gives car owners access to cash based on the value of their vehicle. Clients may borrow up to 70 percent of the vehicle’s appraised value, with repayment terms that can extend up to 48 months. EastWest also offers a special interest rate of 0.68 percent per month for loans set at 50 percent loan-to-value (LTV), which is among the more competitive refinancing rates in the market. Standard refinancing loans carry a monthly rate of 0.88 percent.
EastWest AutoCash is open to both existing EastWest clients and new customers. The bank said the program is intended for car owners who need funds for business expansion, education, medical expenses, emergencies, or other personal needs.
To qualify, the vehicle must be registered under the borrower’s name and must not be more than 10 years old. If the vehicle still carries an existing loan, the new loan amount must exceed the remaining balance. EastWest will release the proceeds after deducting the outstanding balance.
EastWest President and CEO Jerry G. Ngo said the program provides customers with a practical way to access funds without giving up their vehicle.
“EastWest AutoCash gives customers a smart way to access funds using an asset they already own — without disrupting their daily mobility. It’s about helping our clients move forward financially while continuing to move forward in life,” Ngo said.

Ford Philippines has brought back its annual “March Madness” promotion, offering a week of discounts, trade-in support, and service deals for customers across its vehicle lineup and aftersales network. The limited-time campaign runs from March 9 to March 15 at Ford dealerships nationwide.
Ford describes the program as one of its most anticipated retail campaigns of the year. The company says the return of March Madness expands beyond vehicle offers and now includes savings on maintenance services and accessories.
Ryan Lorenzo, Retail Product Marketing and Business Growth Director of Ford Philippines, said the campaign aims to make Ford ownership easier for both new buyers and existing customers. He said the program now includes after-sales offers to improve the ownership experience alongside vehicle promotions.
Customers who reserve a vehicle during the March 9 to 15 promo period can receive discounts of up to P200,000 on select Ranger Sport variants. Ford is also offering a P30,000 trade in subsidy for customers who plan to replace their current vehicle with a new Ford model. An additional P20,000 discount applies to the Everest, Territory Hybrid, and other Ranger variants during the same period.
The promotion also covers service appointments. Customers who schedule a periodic maintenance service during the campaign can receive a 10 percent discount on Ford parts and labor. Genuine Ford accessories are also offered with a 10 percent discount.
Ford added a raffle incentive for service customers. Those who spend at least P10,000 on parts or services during the promo period can join a draw for service vouchers worth up to P10,000 or a Ford dashcam.
Beyond the one week campaign, Ford continues its month long offers across several models. The Ranger Sport 4×2 comes with an all in deal starting at P59,000, while the Ranger XLS is available with a P99,000 all in financing package.
SUV buyers also receive financing options for the Territory Hybrid Titanium X with a P99,000 all in offer. The Everest Trend is available with a P79,000 all in package, while Everest Titanium 4×2 and 4×4 variants carry P99,000 all in financing deals.
Ford also introduced a new service bundle for Everest owners called the 5 Star Care Package. The package includes a five year scheduled service plan, five year warranty, and five year emergency roadside assistance. Ford estimates the benefits represent around P50,000 in savings. Buyers who select the package can receive a P60,000 discount on the Everest Titanium 4×4 or a P45,000 discount depending on variant availability.
The brand’s premium models also receive promotional offers. The Mustang Mach E electric SUV is available with a P500,000 discount or zero percent interest with a 50 percent down payment for 60 months. The Explorer 2.3L Limited EcoBoost carries a P1,000,000 discount or zero percent interest with a 20 percent down payment for 60 months. The Bronco Outer Banks with Sasquatch Package is offered with a P1,370,000 discount or zero percent interest under the same financing terms.
Ford Philippines said the offers run throughout March, with additional dealer specific promotions available during the March Madness week. Financing programs are available through partner banks BPI and EastWest Bank, subject to standard approval and dealership conditions.
