MANILA, Philippines | November 10, 2026 — GAC Philippines is gearing up to power the holiday driving season as it presents its expanding lineup of new energy vehicles (NEVs) at the upcoming 2026 Auto Focus Pre-Christmas Test Drive Festival, happening from November 12 to 15, 2026 at the SM MOA Concert Grounds.
