More and more car brands have implemented their new price list in accordance to the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) Act. This week, find out how the updates from BMW, Chevrolet, and Subaru affected their prices.

In addition, the 7-series had the highest hike ranging from P1- to P1.5-million. The M2 Coupe, X5 M, and X6 M, on the other hand, received huge roll backs.
