In reality, fuel choices can affect long-term engine performance, with each fuel product’s formulation and additives making all the difference. Here’s what motorists need to know about their fuel’s role on engine care and what to look for in their fuel options.
The Role of Fuel in Keeping Car Engines Clean
First, motorists should use the fuel recommended for their vehicle. This includes following the manufacturer's guidance on fuel type and octane requirements.
Space, comfort, turbocharged performance, and Level 2 safety from ₱1.198 million.
Filipino families today have a wider range of mobility options than ever before. While some prioritize space and everyday versatility, others place greater importance on comfort, technology, performance, or accessible pricing. Ultimately, the right vehicle is one that responds to a family’s particular needs, lifestyle, and budget.
Recognizing these different priorities, GAC Philippines recently introduced its expanded MPV Family, comprising the All-New GAC GN6, GAC E8 HEV, and GAC GN8 PHEV Executive. Together, the three models provide distinct mobility solutions for families at different life stages and price points.
As the most accessible model in the lineup, the All-New GN6 is thoughtfully designed for family life. From easier cabin access and comfortable three-row seating to flexible cargo space, connected technology, and advanced driver assistance features, the GN6 brings together the qualities families use and appreciate every day.
Built on GAC’s more than 10 years of MPV engineering experience and over 880,000 MPVs delivered worldwide, the GN6 brings together the space, comfort, versatility, technology, and safety that Filipino families value. This well-rounded combination earns it a place among GAC’s “MPV MVPs.”
Here are five ways the All-new GN6 provides more care and value for every family:
1. Space designed around the whole family
A family MPV must accommodate more than passengers. It needs to adapt to school runs, daily commutes, family gatherings, grocery trips, weekend activities, and long journeys out of town.
The independent second-row captain’s seats feature individual armrests, giving passengers a more comfortable and personal seating area. Easy cabin access also helps children, elderly family members, and passengers with limited mobility enter and exit the vehicle with less effort.
When more carrying capacity is needed, the third-row seats fold completely into the luggage floor to create a flat and practical cargo area. This expands cargo capacity from 324 liters to as much as 1,100 liters, allowing the GN6 to accommodate luggage, sports equipment, shopping, and other large items without requiring families to choose between passenger comfort and usable storage.
Dual-zone automatic climate control helps keep the cabin comfortable, while a PM1 air filter supports cleaner air circulation for everyone on board. A power sunroof adds to the open and welcoming feel of the interior.
Together, these features demonstrate how the GN6’s space is not simply measured in dimensions. It is designed around the different people, routines, and responsibilities that make up family life.
2. Family-focused Features
The GN6 gives Filipino families access to a combination of three-row space, comfort, technology, performance, and safety features in one vehicle.
At the center of the cabin is a large 14.6-inch touchscreen display, complemented by a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. The two displays give the interior a clean, contemporary appearance while placing essential vehicle information and connectivity functions within easy view and reach of the driver.
Families also benefit from features that make everyday travel more comfortable and convenient, including the second-row captain’s seats, flexible fold-flat third row, dual-zone climate control, PM1 air filtration, and power sunroof.
Rather than focusing on equipment for its own sake, the GN6 brings these features together to support real family needs: keeping passengers comfortable, helping the driver stay informed, and allowing the cabin to adapt as plans change.
3. Turbocharged Performance for City and Highway Driving
Powering the GN6 is a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine producing 176.7 HP and 270 Nm of torque. It is paired with a seven-speed Wet Dual-Clutch Transmission, or 7WDCT.
This combination gives the GN6 the responsiveness needed for daily city driving, carrying a full complement of passengers, merging into faster traffic, and travelling on provincial roads. Its 270 Nm of torque provides useful pulling power when the vehicle is loaded with family members and cargo, while the transmission supports smooth and confident progress across different driving conditions.
The GN6 has a WLTC combined fuel-consumption rating of 7.22 liters per 100 kilometers, balancing its turbocharged performance with the everyday efficiency expected of a family vehicle.
4. Level 2 Advanced Assistance Safety for Greater Family Confidence
For a family vehicle, care also means supporting the driver and helping protect everyone inside.
The All-New GN6 GX is equipped with a comprehensive Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System, or ADAS. Its suite of driver-support technologies includes:
These features assist the driver in monitoring traffic conditions, maintaining the vehicle’s position, and responding to potential hazards. They are complemented by a high-definition 360-degree panoramic camera, which provides greater visibility when parking, navigating narrow streets, or maneuvering in confined spaces.
The result is added confidence not only on highways and long journeys, but also during the everyday driving situations Filipino families encounter most often.
5. Straightforward and Convenient Everyday Ownership
The GN6 is designed to fit easily into established family routines. Its gasoline powertrain allows quick and accessible refueling, whether the vehicle is used primarily within the city or for longer trips across the country.
Ownership is supported by GAC Philippines’ nationwide network of 30 dealerships, dedicated local parts warehouse, and two years of free roadside assistance. The GN6 also comes with a five-year or 150,000-kilometer vehicle warranty, whichever comes first.
GAC’s local parts warehouse helps maintain a stable supply of genuine components and supports faster service turnaround times. GAC dealerships also operate according to GAC Global Sales & Service Way standards, providing customers with consistent technical and aftersales support throughout the vehicle’s lifecycle.
The Bottom Line: An MPV that Puts Family Needs First
The All-New GN6 expands the choices available to Filipino families by offering a spacious, adaptable, and well-equipped seven-seater at an accessible price.
Its value is found not in any one feature, but in how its features work together: captain’s seats that make passengers more comfortable, fold-flat seating that creates room for changing family needs, a turbocharged engine that provides confident performance, and Level 2 ADAS that supports the driver on every journey.
Within GAC Philippines’ broader MPV Family, the GN6 provides a compelling choice for households looking for everyday versatility, useful technology, thoughtful comfort, and advanced safety features from ₱1.1981 million.
It is an accessible MPV designed to deliver more care for every family member.

Persistent rains and flooding across communities make year-round preventive care more important than ever to keep dogs healthy and protected. These conditions can increase their exposure to parasites and other health risks, reinforcing the need for pet owners to stay proactive about their dogs' health.
This International Dog Day, Boehringer Ingelheim reminds pet owners that preventive care should not take a break when the rain comes. Keeping dogs protected through regular veterinary care, vaccinations, parasite protection, and good hygiene can help prevent health concerns throughout the year and support their overall well-being.

Businesses are rethinking logistics as a growth engine, with operational intelligence emerging as the key to faster decisions, stronger customer experiences, and sustainable expansion
Logistics has largely been viewed as a function focused on moving goods efficiently from warehouses to customers. As businesses navigate complex operations across physical stores and online platforms, industry leaders say competitive advantage now hinges on how quickly organizations can understand and respond to their operational dynamics.
Across Asia-Pacific, operational complexity continues to grow. Research cited by the Supply Chain Management Association of the Philippines (SCMAP) found that delivery costs increased by 18.9% year-on-year, while 44% of operators still struggle with real-time shipment visibility. Although organizations have invested heavily in digital tools, only a small percentage have reached the point where intelligence actively drives operational decisions.
