THE compact crossover SUV segment is a very crowded market, with competitors that come in various shapes, performance, and country of origin. Therefore, this is a segment that's very competitive and thus hard for brands to stand out. That's where the GAC Emkoo comes in. As a way to highlight the strengths of this compact crossover, GAC Motor Philippines organized a relaxing media drive in which the curated destinations were a perfect match for this stylish SUV.

And indeed, stylish is the word that comes to mind when seeing the Emkoo in person. When was the last time you saw a vehicle at any price point that looks like a concept car? Automakers often disappoint us with radical concept cars that when put into production, become heavily watered down. But that's not the case with the Emko. It's a futuristic, rakishly styled compact SUV — one that easily stands out regardless if you choose the base GE or the range-topping GL. Sure, there are differences in wheel designs to separate the two variants, but even if you pick the lower-spec one, it will still easily stand out too.
