    Vista Land Unveils Cascaia by Vista Estates: A Spanish-Inspired Master Planned Development in San Fernando City, Pampanga

    In a shining celebration of vision, vitality, culture, and community, Vista Land officially unveiled Cascaia by Vista Estates, its newest Spanish-inspired master planned development in the heart of San Fernando City, Pampanga. The sales launch named Lustré: A Masterpiece in the Making, was attended by company executives, business partners, and esteemed guests, all gathered to witness the debut of what promises to be a radiant new lifescape in the region.

    Set on four hectares of prime land, Cascaia by Vista Estates, located along MacArthur Highway, is Vista Land’s newly launched master planned development in San Fernando, Pampanga

    Cascaia derives its name from the Catalan word casco, meaning shard, and Gaia, symbolizing the living earth—reflecting the estate concept of transforming fragments of nature, culture, and innovation into an integrated, cohesive community. The four-hectare master planned development aims to become a beacon of modern living that pays homage to the rich provincial heritage while embracing the aspirations of modern-day Kapampangan homebuyers and investors.

    Located in a city celebrated for its craftsmanship and creativity, Cascaia draws inspiration from the iconic Ligligan Parul (Giant Lantern Festival), known for its dazzling displays of light and artistry.

    Vista Land Master Planner Ar. Ryan Erese highlighted the importance of building a master planned development that blends aesthetics with aspirations, like Cascaia.

    Master Planner Ar. Ryan Erese highlighted the importance of building a master planned development that blends aesthetics with aspirations, noting during his presentation, “This curated integrated community is a ground approach to urban living, creating a sophisticated and self-sustaining enclave that sets new standards for residential and mixed-use developments in the region.”

    The design language of Cascaia pays tribute to the whimsical charm and artistic brilliance of Park Güell in Spain. The estate features bright mosaics, lush promenades, al fresco lounges, and residential zones that evoke elegance and ease. The residential tower will showcase terracotta tones, graceful curves, and airy communal areas, creating a lifestyle that blends modern comforts with a classic European charm.

    Vista Land Master Planner Ar. Ryan Erese highlighted the importance of building a master planned development that blends aesthetics with aspirations, like Cascaia.

    Ms. Ailene R. Sarmiento, Vista Land Group Head for North Luzon, described Cascaia as a project that honors the past while building for the future. “Each step we take is guided by Cascaia—a place where memory and momentum meet, and history and hope shine brighter together,” Sarmiento said. “As we move into this new chapter, we carry with us more than anticipation—we carry the affirmation that Cascaia is a place for those ready to be seen, ready to belong, and ready to live fully in the brilliance of what they have built.”

    Manny B. Villar, Chairman of the Villar Group of Companies, spoke about the continued commitment of Vista Land to transforming residential landscapes and elevating the quality of life nationwide.

    Cascaia by Vista Estates is part of a landmark expansion strategy focusing on developing integrated communities across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The project further solidifies the position of Vista Land as the market leader in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao—catering to the evolving needs of Filipinos seeking more than a home—but a true sense of community.

    Cascaia team raises a toast during Lustré: A Masterpiece in the Making.

    • Special collaboration with the Jim Clark Trust, celebrating 60 years since the
      greatest season of successes by any racing driver
    • World premiere at the 2025 Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix

    • Bespoke Clark Racing Green exterior paint and heritage-inspired livery
      Unique Jim Clark badging and interior details

    Amsterdam, 2 May 2025

    Lotus honours one of the greatest drivers of all time with the introduction of the Emira Clark Edition, in collaboration with the Jim Clark Trust. This exclusive model, limited to just 60 cars for selected markets, will make its world debut leading at the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix.

    The legacy of Jim Clark and Team Lotus is forever etched into the history of motorsport.
    In 1965, Clark secured the Formula 1 World Championship with Team Lotus and triumphed in the iconic Indianapolis 500 — a remarkable double victory that remains unmatched to this day. That same year, Clark further demonstrated his extraordinary talent with championship victories in Formula 2 and the Tasman Series in Australia and New Zealand, as well as winning touring car races in a Lotus Cortina.

    This unparalleled success story serves as the inspiration behind the creation of the Lotus Emira Clark Edition — a fitting tribute to a driver whose achievements continue to define excellence and innovation in racing. 

    Exclusive design and interior

    The body of the exclusive Emira is finished in Clark Racing Green with a contrasting black roof, silver mirrors and an iconic yellow racing stripe flared around the front end, inspired by Clark’s 1965 Indianapolis 500-winning Lotus Type 38. A machined aluminium fuel filler cap with a blue anodised centre and yellow exhaust pipes further enhances the exclusive look. A hand-painted yellow pinstripe picks out the Emira swage line, complemented by Clark Edition branding on the doors inspired by the Clark logo used on his racing cars.

    The interior exudes pure motorsport and nostalgia. The sports seats’ asymmetrical finish is reminiscent of the red-trimmed Lotus racing cars Clark drove in 1965 and emphasise the driver-focused nature of the Emira Clark Edition with a driver’s seat upholstered in red leather and Alcantara®, while the passenger seat is upholstered in black leather and Alcantara®. 

    The Emira Clark Edition also has a sixties-style wooden gear knob and special commemorative Jim Clark badging featuring Clark’s personalised tartan from Lochcarron, Scotland. Additional details complement the interior, including a Jim Clark signature on the dashboard and Team Lotus detailing on the seats. 

    Every Emira Clark Edition will have numbered carbon fibre treadplates (1 of 60) adding to the exclusive feel of this very limited edition. Each customer will also receive a bespoke hand-crafted leather holdall with unique Clark Edition details.

    Based on the powerful Lotus Emira V6

    The Emira Clark Edition is based on the Lotus Emira V6 and combines the brand’s sporting performance with a stylish tribute to the Scottish racing legend and his Lotus racing cars. The Lotus Emira V6 is powered by a 400 hp supercharged 3.5-litre V6 engine with a six-speed manual gearbox and limited-slip differential. The Emira V6 offers a pure driving experience thanks to the unfiltered hydraulic steering feel and the Lotus Driver’s pack which includes sports suspension, Track Mode and revised exhaust sound.

    A worldwide tribute to a racing legend

    With the Emira Clark Edition, Lotus pays tribute to one of the most iconic drivers in the history of motorsport. The combination of exclusive design and uncompromising performance makes this limited edition a coveted collector’s item for car enthusiasts worldwide. 

    For further details regarding the Emira Clark Edition and pricing information, interested customers can contact local authorised Lotus dealer at Lotus Cars Manila, 38th St. corner 11th Avenue, Triangle Drive, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, or call 0917 508 6640 or email lotuscarsmanila@autohubgroup.com.
