Our Philippine correspondent, Harold, pointed out recently that seven out of the Top Ten Best Selling Cars in the Philippines is a Toyota, which helped the Japanese carmaker conquer 39.3% of the total vehicle sales in the Philippines last year. Here's the Top Ten Cars in the Philippines in 2016: -
Although these cars are bestsellers, they are not necessarily the best

selling well? Harold says it is all about the perceived value of the

Mitsubishi Montero, Mitsubishi L-300 and Isuzu mu-X, which are
registering remarkable sales in the first six months of 2017.
