The International Women's Month (IWD} gained official recognition by the United Nations as a day to celebrate women’s contributions to societies globally. In the Philippines, the National Women’s Month Celebration which happens in March every year has become a platform to spotlight women’s accomplishments and address ongoing and emerging issues related to women’s empowerment and gender equality. 

Empowerment and independence also reflects how we choose to live our life as women, including our choice of vehicles to be a part of our daily routine. Like choosing a reliable partner, we are discriminating in the choices we make. With today's modern woman, work, play, family, and pursuing our passions include finding the reliable vehicle to match our needs.

Women, like men, enjoy driving cars for a variety of reasons. 

Independence and Freedom: 

Driving a car provides us women with a sense of independence and freedom. It allows us to go wherever we want, whenever we want, without relying on others for transportation. This can be particularly empowering for women who value their autonomy and like to have control over their own mobility.

Convenience and Efficiency: 

Having a car allows us women to conveniently and efficiently go about our daily activities. We can easily commute to work, run errands, pick up kids from school, and travel to various destinations without relying on public transportation or others' schedules. Driving a car often saves time and offers flexibility in terms of travel options.

Enjoyment of the Driving Experience: 

Many women find joy and enjoyment in the act of driving itself. We appreciate the feeling of being behind the wheel, controlling the vehicle, and the sense of control it provides. The experience of driving can be exciting and exhilarating, whether it's cruising on a scenic road or tackling challenging driving conditions.

We may choose a vehicle that reflects our personality, preferences, and lifestyle. The car we drive can be seen as a form of self-expression and a way to showcase our individuality.
