Own the power to lead with the Philippines’ best-selling SUV

Those with the power to lead choose the Philippines’ best-selling SUV

 

Toyota Motor Philippines, the country’s top automotive company and a firm believer in the value of “kaizen” (Japanese term that means constant improvement), aims to always deliver the highest level of quality across its offerings. From this same mindset originates the Toyota Fortuner – the vehicle of choice for Filipinos with the power to lead.

 

Embodying top-notch qualities and delivering a next-level driving experience, the Toyota Fortuner has earned kingship within its category. The Fortuner never missed the list of the country’s top-selling 7-seater SUVs every year. It has been hailed as the best-selling SUV in the Philippines, having sold more than 230,000 units since 2005.

Peak performance fit for a segment king

 

A perfect match for brave business owners and visionary young professionals paving their way to a better future, each Fortuner safely guides its owners and passengers as they lead their everyday lives. Arch. Wilbye Manlutac, can attest to the reliability and trustworthiness of his SUV.

 

Arch. Wilbye Manlutac, attests to the reliability of the Toyota Fortuner since 2007 to present.

 

“My family first owned a 2007 model of the Fortuner before switching to the 2018 model. The older model’s reliability and efficiency served as our main reason for getting the newer version.” Arch. Wilbye shared. “Having experienced two models of the Fortuner, I can say that Toyota does an amazing job designing cars that deliver on both function and form. Luxury and comfort are definitely something that the Fortuner offers at the perfect balance.”

 

The perfect balance between function and comfort of the Fortuner convinced Arch. Wilbye Manlutac (middle) and his family to patronize the model

 

A leader knows how to perform -- wherever life’s roads may go. Being the king in its class and having been present on Philippine roads for over 15 years, the Fortuner has proven its capability to adapt to new challenges and an ever-changing terrain.

 

The power to surmount every obstacle is in a leader’s DNA, as portrayed by the Fortuner’s dynamic and fuel-efficient engine. The 4-cylinder, 16-valve DOHC Variable Nozzle Turbo with air-cooled Intercooler engine under a Fortuner’s hood is more than capable of bringing its owner through great distance and to great heights.

 

Beyond this, the Fortuner also promises safety -- a universal and fundamental quality among all Toyota vehicles. The Fortuner commits to deliver ease of use and peace of mind with its combination of advanced passive and active safety features. Certain variants also have the Toyota Safety Sense, which equips the Fortuner with Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert, and Adaptive Cruise Control. Other safety additions available for select variants of the Fortuner are the Panoramic View Monitor (PVM), Blind Spot Monitor (BSM), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).

 

Premier power and perks

 

Being ahead of the pack entails knowing how to work hard but also when to play hard. Flexibility spells the difference for those that excel. Being well-equipped for various driving situations, the Fortuner is a worthy companion, whether on new ventures or on daily journeys– as attested to by Crysler David, a Toyota Fortuner owner since 2019.

 

“My fondest memories with Lisha (my Fortuner’s name) are the long drives I’ve taken with it. Driving Lisha to exciting places like La Union and Pangasinan with my friends is always an adventure,” Crysler said.

 

Lisha, Crysler’s Fortuner, has been with him since 2019 and has accompanied him through various travels.

 

The Fortuner possesses components that are convenient for road trips and out-of-towns such as a spacious trunk, a stable and adventurous stance and a powerful engine. Select variants of the vehicle also introduce new functional power features such as the Kick Sensor, which enables the boot to open automatically with a simple foot movement to make loading equipment and baggage easier. These features make the Fortuner the vehicle of choice for those who love to enjoy life’s most thrilling moments

 

A leader on all fronts

 

True frontrunners set the tone for greatness from the very first impression. The Toyota Fortuner does the same effectively with its striking exterior and signature commanding appearance which emanate confidence and elegance for its owner.

 

The Fortuner’s premium features go beyond its sleek colorways, machine cut alloy wheels, exclusive bumper designs, and top-quality headlights and turn signals. The vehicle’s interior also offers immersive styling and progressive technology. The inside of the Toyota Fortuner – with variants that boast accented leather seats, interior illumination system and 9-speaker JBL sound system paired with Apple Carplay and Android Auto compatibility feature -- is designed to make every passenger at home, wherever the destination may be.

 

From the outside in, the Toyota Fortuner aims to inspire luxury with its dynamic exterior and premium interior.

 

With all these and more, the Fortuner proves to be a staunch companion -- whether when leading in life’s literal and figurative highroads or when leading every new adventure. So, for those who deserve the power, performance and perks of being a leader, the Fortuner proves to be the best automotive partner.

Tweet

More students, educators, and parents nationwide can now access quality educational programs as Knowledge Channel returns to digital TV starting on World Teacher’s Day this Tuesday (October 5) via its partnership with the broadcast company BEAM.

The iconic educational programs of Knowledge Channel are now available again in Mega Manila, Baguio, Naga, Metro Cebu, Iloilo, Davao, and Zamboanga to aid young Filipinos in their distance learning education this pandemic. Viewers can access Knowledge Channel via BEAM DTT by simply doing a channel rescan on any digital TV box.

Dubbed as the “biggest classroom on-air,” ETV-pioneer Knowledge Channel will now reach over 10 million Pinoy households, providing them over 1,500 video lessons from Kinder to Grade 10 and the Alternative Learning System and programs hosted by media personalities such as Robi Domingo, Enchong Dee and MayMay Entrata, and online educators Lyqa Maravilla and Peter Esperanza through digital, cable, and direct-to-home satellite TV.

Knowledge Channel continues to bring quality learning to every Filipino child this school year 2021–2022. Educational shows are available daily from 6 AM to 11 PM on Knowledge Channel on digital, cable, and direct-to-home satellite TV. Meanwhile, video lessons for Grades 1 to 6 are also airing via A2Z weekdays from 7 to 9 AM. Preschoolers and their parents can also enjoy viewing Knowledge Channel’s educational shows, available for free on theAsianparent Philippines app.

Students and teachers can also join School at Home’s array of interactive online programs on Kumu’s SeenZone channel and Knowledge Channel’s Facebook Page, weekdays at 11 AM. The weekly lineup includes “Wikaharian Online World” every Monday, “Team Lyqa” every Tuesday, “Knowledge on the Go” and “MathDali’s Math Talks” every Wednesday, “Money Lessons with FQ Mom and Sons” every Thursday, and “Art Smart with Teacher Precious” every Friday.

Through its “Stay at Home, Learn at Home” campaign launched last year, Knowledge Channel has allowed learners in over 7 million households to continue learning from home during the pandemic despite the cancellation of face-to-face classes via ABS-CBN TVplus, SKYdirect, and SKYcable.

It then shifted to its “School at Home” campaign to continue delivering its educational programs online as the non-renewal of ABS-CBN’s franchise and cease-and-desist order issued to TVplus and SKYdirect narrowed down its reach. These online efforts garnered various milestones, including a 150,000 follower mark on Facebook and a Silver Button award from YouTube, and the Outstanding CSR Project in Education award in the 2021 League of Corporate Foundations CSR Guild Awards.

Keep the number you love when you move DITO

Tweet

DITO Telecommunity invites mobile phone users to make the move to DITO while keeping their existing phone number. Starting September 30, thanks to the Mobile Number Portability law, Filipinos can now avail the service for free when they change network providers or switch to a different subscription plan.

What is Mobile Number Portability or MNP?

In compliance to the Republic Act 11202 or the Mobile Number Portability Act, Mobile Number Portability (MNP) gives mobile phone users the freedom to choose their telco service provider conveniently and seamlessly. Aside from being free of charge, MNP also offers subscribers the flexibility to transfer from one telco to another or switch from prepaid to postpaid and vice-versa without having to give up their phone numbers.

To enable the porting services for the Mobile Number Portability law and ensure its smooth implementation, all three Philippine telcos formed an alliance through the Telecommunications Connectivity Inc., (TCI) which will oversee all the activities under MNP.

How to apply for MNP?

To start the process, applicants must first submit an MNP application to their existing provider, after which they will be given Unique Subscriber Code (USC) that they will need to provide when applying for either a new plan or a different network.

For those switching providers, it will take 24 to 48 hours to activate the transfer, and there will be a 60-day period before a user is allowed to request another transfer. Another good news for subscribers is that there is no limit to the number of times one can switch between telcos.

Easy and seamless porting when you move to DITO

Now covering almost 300 cities and municipalities nationwide and boasting over 3 million subscribers since its launch this year, DITO is offering a seamless and hassle-free porting experience to new subscribers. To move to DITO, applicants can submit the requirements through any of DITO’s Experience Stores nationwide.

To transfer to DITO from a different network provider, a subscriber must ensure that they meet the following requirements: must not have any outstanding financial obligation with their current mobile service provider; mobile number is not locked to any service provider; have no porting request in the last 60 days; mobile number is not prohibited from porting by a court of law; subscriber has not been blacklisted by a network provider for fraudulent activities; must have an active mobile number; mobile number must not be part of a bundled service or product of another network provider; mobile number is not the principal contact number in a multi-number account.

To start the process, applicants must first submit an MNP application to their provider to get their Unique Subscriber Code (USC), which they need to provide when applying. DITO currently only offers prepaid plans.
