A New Era of EV Ownership in the Philippines: VinFast Makes Owning an EV Easier for Filipinos with New Incentives and Battery Subscription Program

VinFast Philippines is making a stronger push to bring electric vehicles (EVs) closer to everyday Filipino drivers, starting with a new set of incentives designed to lower both the cost and complexity of going electric. From free charging at V-Green stations until May 1, 2027, to flexible sales support for the VF 7 Plus and VF 9 Plus, the brand is reinforcing its message that EV ownership should not feel out of reach or overly complicated.

For buyers of the VF 7 Plus and VF 9 Plus, VinFast is offering two support options depending on what matters most. Customers who want immediate savings can choose a straight price discount: ₱109,000 off for the VF 7 Plus and ₱270,000 off for the VF 9 Plus. Those who prefer lower monthly ownership costs can opt for battery subscription discounts instead. This brings the VF 7 Plus’ monthly battery subscription down from ₱3,350 to ₱1,850, while for the VF 9 Plus, the ₱3,840 monthly battery subscription fee is fully covered, making it effectively free. On top of this, VinFast is also offering complimentary accessories on select models, including a wall charger, floor mats, and a tire repair kit, helping reduce the extra expenses that usually come with buying a new car.

Why the REDMI Note 15 Pro 5G is Your Ultimate Valentine's Wingman

Going out on Valentine's Day is tough, especially when you're competing with the crowds–which is why your phone should be Titan Tough

Valentine's Day, especially in the Philippines, is usually a whirlwind of dinner reservations, perfectly timed surprises, and the pressure to capture that "one great photo" to remember the night. But let's be real: dates don't always go according to plan. Whether it's an unexpected downpour during a rooftop dinner or a clumsy moment with a wine glass, life happens.

That's why there's no better "wingman" on this special holiday than the REDMI Note 15 Pro 5G—it's more than just the smartphone you're booking your reservations with, it's also the Titan Tough companion that's built to survive the romance and the accidents that come with it.

Watch “Wuthering Heights” this Valentine’s Day, now showing only in cinemas 

Margot Robbie as Cathy in Emerald Fennell’s movie adaptation of “Wuthering Heights”

“What I wanted to make was something that distilled the feeling that I had when I was 14 while I read it,” says filmmaker Emerald Fennell in a featurette for “Wuthering Heights.” Fennell directed, produced and wrote the screenplay for her film adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic novel. “Every camera movement, every single prop has an emotional reason for existing. It is undeniable.”

REVIEW: Wuthering Heights - Whirlwind of Passion and Deception

Based on the novel of Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights has been adapted numerous times yet the story still resonates to the conflicts of love, passion, and torment. Now adapted with Margot Robbie as Catherine and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, which also features a soundtrack from Charlie XCX, brings the story with a new style that blends the old period with some modern elements. 

Magot Robbie's role as Catherine brings back her bold and seductive charm and paired with Jacob Elordi indeed made it feel like those passionate romance novels with descriptive sensual moments and also something similar to the 50 shades books. The cinematography shows a variety of lens of class, status, and values, paired with eerie yet effective score brought weight to the story.
