PRNEWS Admin Leave a comment

On March 22, 2015, Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation will gather the ten best players of its Mirage Eco Dash game application to a culminating event that will see one lucky Mirage Eco Dasher drive off with a brand new Mitsubishi Mirage GLS (Manual Transmission). The finals will be held at the SM Mall of Asia parking grounds during the hotly-anticipated Mitsubishi Summer Expo.

 

Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation is the first ever car company in the Philippines to develop a game app with real world prizes and they have gone all-out in support of this game since its launch back in September 2014 during the 5th Philippine International Motor Show. Every month since the launch, the top 5 players of the game won brand new iPad Minis as they eagerly zoomed towards the grand prize.

 

In less than 6 months, Mirage Eco Dash reached nearly 10,000 downloads in both iOS and Android devices. This just goes to show how popular the game has become, given that it provided a chance to win a car just for playing. Mirage Eco Dash sees players drive their very own customizable Mirage as they navigate obstacles, collect coins and power-ups. The frenetic pace keeps players on their toes knowing that every second counts as they go as far as they can to push their scores higher.

 

The game has generated a ton of excitement, since not a lot of free-to-play (F2P) mobile games give out amazing prizes such as iPad Minis and a brand new car. Just the chance to win was a huge pull for the players and proved to be a great incentive.

 

The players have been eagerly waiting for the finals as they finally get to see who is the best Mirage Eco Dasher in the country. Mirage Eco Dash is part of Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation’s drive through the digital landscape.

Honda gathers over 100 All New Odyssey reservations

With just over a week since launched, Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI), received over 100 All New Odyssey reservations which retails at an introductory price of P2,298,000 and comes with free Modulo accessories until March 31 only.

 

The All New Odyssey is Honda’s offering for customers looking for a seven-seater luxury minivan that showcases the perfect balance of utility and passenger car values.  The All New Odyssey’s utility characteristics suggest spacious cabin and flexible seating; while passenger vehicle characteristics evoke driving performance and fuel efficiency;

 

To achieve this, HCPI equipped the All New Odyssey with features that has never been offered in any of the Honda vehicles locally available:

 

Captain Cradle Seats which are especially designed for the second row passengers features different seat structures to provide ultimate comfort. The cradle structure simultaneously raises the seat cushion to the optimal angle when the passenger reclines the seatback. The bendable seatback structure enables the passenger to adjust the angle of the upper half of the seatback independently. And lastly, an ottoman is added for leg support and a more relaxing posture. These seats can be moved backwards by 740mm to exude a limousine-like space or sideways to create a private space for each occupant.

 

Multi-view Camera System supports safe driving by significantly improving visibility around the vehicle through images generated from four wide angle cameras located on the front grille, right and left door mirrors and the tailgate. Synthesized images are shown on the touch screen display audio with navigation. Different images can be displayed depending on the situation such as driving through an intersection with poor visibility, parking the car or driving through a narrow street.

 

Smart Parking Assist System helps the driver to park with automatic steering input using the Electric Power Steering (EPS) motor. This is based on automatic detection of the parking space by analyzing the images framed by the Multi-view Camera System. The system supports backing into the parking space and parallel parking even in a tight spot where multiple steering operations are required.

 

Rear Entertainment System is a 9-inch LCD monitor which can convert the rear cabin into a private entertainment space. Back seat passengers can enjoy watching DVD and other multimedia contents via the HDMI external video input.

 

Earth Dreams Technology is a next generation set of technological advancements that enhances the engine to greatly improve both fuel efficiency and driving performance. The All New Odyssey is the first Honda model available in the Philippines that is developed with Earth Dreams Technology 2.4-liter, DOHC i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine and Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT with 7-speed paddle shifter).

 

No other than HCPI’s President and General Manager, Toshio Kuwahara unveiled and spoke with optimism about the All New Odyssey in a press conference last March 3. “We are overwhelmed to hear about the very positive response from our customers especially in this category. We are working closely with our dealerships to be able to supply the orders we have taken over the week. We plan to continue to introduce new products that suit the demands and needs of the Filipino customers”, said Kuwahara in a press statement.
