Representing the Japanese lineup are the Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Subaru. Note that Motor Image, the official distributor of Subaru vehicles in the country, might be launching the Subaru Forester GT Edition during the event.  For those unaware, this is a sportier version of the compact crossover, and it made an appearance at the Singapore Motor Show earlier this year.

Chinese automakers will have the most presence on the event grounds as nine brands have confirmed to join the fray. These brands include BYD, Changan, Chery, Foton, GAC Motor, Geely, GMW (Great Wall Motor), Jetour, and JMC. British-bred MG is also part of this roster, and it will likely feature the MG GT to the event’s spectators.

Other automakers included in the 2023 MIAS lineup are Ford, Hyundai, and Peugeot. Hyundai Motor Philippines, Inc. (HMPH) is then expected to display the Ioniq 5 all-electric compact crossover on its stage.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is one of the first electric vehicles (EVs) made available in the country. This reflects the Korean automaker’s commitment to supporting the Philippines’ EV push. Some of the features the Ioniq 5 will showcase at the upcoming car show are its retro-futuristic design, 451 km EV range, and eco-friendly benefits.
