WRX Ute would be cool to have add to the sedan and wagon lineup. Or more realistically a Forester or Outback wagon.

Really hope Caloy is able to drive the car, wonder if he can still ask for a smaller car like the RAV4 Hybrid or even the Corolla Cross GR-S haha

No one mentioned about fuel in a PHEV going bad. Do keep in mind gasoline in the Philippines has 10% ethanol absorbs moisture. The fuel in the tank goes bad in 3 weeks time. The only way to prevent the fuel from going bad is adding a fuel stabilizer. STP red is the only locally available product that's over the counter at Handyman. I personally ship my fuel stabilizer into PI for our low mileage cars. I never used STP red.
