By Relly Carpio INQUIRER.net CHANA Automobile Co. Ltd., China's largest minivan producer, made its Philippine debut on Thursday at the Manila International Auto Show. Stephen Sy, president of Focus Ventures Inc., Chana's exclusive Philippine distributor, was on hand for the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Chana is offering a wide product range with three distinct categories: the super mini, the minivans and the minitrucks/multi-carry vehicles. All models are equipped with 1.3 liter 16 valve engines. Each comes with a three-year warranty, "which shows our commitment and trust in the product," Sy said. Their carrier product is the Benni, a super mini, at P438,000, available in manual or automatic, with power steering, driver's airbag, ABS, power windows and front and rear fog lamps. The Benni was styled in Italy, and is a survivor of the Chana Trax Experience, where Chana took their vehicles on an 80-day drive for 26,000 kms from China to South Africa. Chana also offered three 8-seater compact MPVs -- the Starlight, Star II and the CM8 -- and three compact mini-truck models.
