However, not only that, an internal source of the Korean manufacturer also said that the company plans to bring 2 more Casper and Custo models to this “island country” in the near future.
Although the launch date and specific information are unknown, it is understandable that Hyundai launched these two models for the Philippines market, as this is a move to attract new customers in this island nation.
