    Deliciously Healthy Through the Years: Kenny Rogers Roasters Celebrates 30 Years of Flavorful Legacy

    Kenny Rogers Roasters is renowned for serving “deliciously healthy” meals and is proudly celebrating its 30th anniversary—a remarkable feat in a fast-paced, trend-driven industry where longevity is a true badge of success. Since 1995, the brand has grown into the country’s leading fast-casual restaurant, with over 150 stores nationwide. Known for its signature roasted chicken, hearty sides, and exciting food innovations, Kenny Rogers Roasters has redefined how Filipinos enjoy wholesome meals—proving that true greatness only gets better with time.

    Redefined What Healthy Tastes Like

    For the past 30 years, Kenny Rogers Roasters has redefined what healthy tastes like by offering wholesome, flavorful meals in a fast-casual setting. Known for its Classic Roasted Chicken—tender, juicy chicken slow-roasted to perfection—the brand has become a staple in Filipino households.

    Kenny Rogers Roasters also offers a well-rounded menu that balances indulgence and nutrition, featuring staples like the fall of the bone ribs, Healthy Plates and Salad—complete with calorie counts to give customers greater transparency and control over their meals. Complementing its main dishes are a variety of comforting side options that have become fan favorites over the years, including the iconic corn muffin, mac and cheese, and steamed vegetables.

    These thoughtfully crafted combinations reflect the brand’s enduring commitment to making deliciously healthy food both satisfying and accessible to all.

    Kenny Rogers Roasters continues to innovate with bold, globally inspired flavors that excite the palate while staying true to its healthy roots. Limited-time offerings such as the Four Cheese Roast, Great Garlic Roast, Truffle Roast, and Chimichurri Roast have added variety and excitement to the menu, proving that nutritious food can also be indulgent and crave-worthy. By staying ahead of trends and listening to what customers want, Kenny Rogers Roasters has solidified its reputation as a trailblazer in the industry—one that leads with purpose and flavor.

    “I Love Me Better”: The Campaign that Marks Legacy

    To celebrate its 30th year, Kenny Rogers Roasters is launching its most personal and empowering campaign yet: “I Love Me Better.” The brand recognizes that choosing better for yourself—especially when it comes to food—takes intention and courage. This campaign champions self-love through mindful eating, reminding everyone that even small decisions, like opting for healthier meals, can be powerful acts of self-care.

    Marketing Director Lorent Martin Adrias explains that Kenny Rogers Roasters is for those who believe every better choice matters. “Sometimes, better choices start with something as simple as choosing better meals for yourself. When we choose healthier, better meals, we’re not just fueling our bodies but embracing self-love,” he says. “Choosing Kenny Rogers Roasters is more than a meal decision—it’s a commitment to loving yourself better.”

    Reflecting this bold message, the “I Love Me Better” campaign took over high-traffic, unexpected spaces—from a full train wrap on LRT-1 and bus wraps in BGC to bike boards and inspiring billboards along EDSA. Each placement carried messages of self-love and empowerment, turning everyday commutes into bold reminders to choose better. The campaign also introduced a new, feel-good jingle now streaming on Spotify, extending the message through music.

    For three decades, Kenny Rogers Roasters has led with purpose—redefining what deliciously healthy means while influencing communities through innovation and impact. “The legacy of Kenny Rogers Roasters is unmatched,” Adrias concludes. “And the future is set to raise the bar even higher.”

    Frederick Siy, President and CEO of Kenny Rogers Roasters, concluded, “We’re not just looking back at 30 years of success—we’re showing what enduring excellence truly means. Kenny Rogers Roasters has stood the test of time by continuously evolving to cater to our consumers’ needs. As we move ahead, we remain committed to serving food that’s both delicious and healthy.”

I was surprised bakit ang dami na, then I counted the people there. Siguro mga 80 yung nabilang ko that time and kinunan ko ng picture. Maya-maya, dumadami na yung mga tao that they need to remove the barrier that they put,” he started. “Someone helped me and said, ‘Sir, kailangan mo kumuha ng number.

  • Lotus revamps Eletre and Emeya line-up

    Lotus revamps Eletre and Emeya line-up

    • New ‘600’ and ‘900’ model naming reflects electrifying power output
    • Historic GT SE and Sport trim level names return
    • Revised line-up offers customers convenient choice in luxury and tech or pronounced sportiness
    • New model range, impressive performance, ground-breaking charging performance
    • Available to order now, debuts this summer at Lotus retailers

    Manila, 3 July 2025

    With the arrival of the new model year, Lotus has revamped the line-up for its Eletre hyper-SUV and Emeya hyper-GT. Thanks to a revised model range, Lotus now offers customers more convenience, clarity and tailored customization in configuring their perfect Eletre or Emeya. Key novelty is the ‘600’ and ‘900’ model names, that clearly reflects the electrifying power output of the new models. At the same time, legendary equipment level references like GT SE and SPORT from Lotus’ rich heritage return to the present.

    New line-up

    Effective immediately, Lotus offers the Eletre hyper-SUV and Emeya hyper-GT as ‘600’ or ‘900’, a reference to the two power output versions of both models. Subsequently Lotus pairs those new versions with clearly identifiable, predefined equipment levels containing popular options and choices. Meaning customers can now express a specific preference for pronounced sportiness or rather a more luxurious and technology-led specification.

    Recently, the Lotus Emira sports car preceded the Eletre and Emeya by referencing trim level from the legendary past back into the current range, introducing the Emira Turbo SE. Lotus now continues that strategy with the completely new line-up for the Eletre and Emeya, giving legendary naming’s like SPORT and GT SE a modern new appearance.

    As a result, the Lotus Eletre is now available in five clearly defined trim levels: Eletre 600, 600 GT SE and 600 SPORT SE, as well as 900 SPORT and the Eletre 900 SPORT CARBON as the absolute flagship. The Lotus Emeya follows the same nomenclature.

    Complementing these well-defined trim levels, customers can subsequently further customise their car to their own personal taste thanks to a wide selection of optional packages, individual options and colours. New colours in the pallet are Zenith White and Akoya White for the Eletre, while interior-wise customers can now also opt for the Quartz and Jasper interior themes with the new LOTUSWEAR Performance Fabric for the seats.

    Overview of main standard features per model

    As a result, the newly defined model line-up for the Lotus Eletre and Emeya now offers more convenience and tailored customisation with specific highlights for each trim level:

    • Eletre 600: 450 kW (603 bhp) dual-motor, 4WD, 112 kWh battery pack, 22kW onboard charger, active air suspension with Continuous Damping Control, 20-inch wheels, torque vectoring by brake, LED matrix headlights, KEF PREMIUM 15 speaker audio, 29″ HUD, 4 zone climate control, Jasper interior theme with LOTUSWEAR Performance Fabric for the seats
    • Eletre 600 GT SE: Intelligent glass roof, parking pack, 22″ alloy wheels, 6 piston brakes, KEF REFERENCE 23 speakers audio, configurable ambient lighting, illuminated side sills
    • Eletre 600 SPORT SE: Lotus dynamic handling pack, active rear spoiler, massaging & ventilated front seats, soft-close doors
    • Eletre 900 SPORT: 675 kW dual-motor, 2-speed transmission, Lotus dynamic handling pack, active rear spoiler, Quartz interior theme with LOTUSWEAR Performance Fabric for the seats
    • Eletre 900 SPORT CARBON: extended exterior carbon pack, interior carbon pack, Sports bonnet (lightweight composite material), massaging & ventilated front seats, soft-close doors
    • Emeya 600: 450 kW (603 bhp) dual-motor, 4WD, 112 kWh battery pack, 22kW onboard charger, active air suspension with Continuous Damping Control, 20-inch wheels, torque vectoring by brake, LED matrix headlights, KEF PREMIUM 15 speaker audio, 29″ HUD, 4 zone climate control, Jasper interior theme with LOTUSWEAR Performance Fabric for the seats

    • Emeya 900 SPORT CARBON: extended exterior carbon pack, extended interior carbon pack, active rear diffuser, active front air dam, massaging & ventilated front seats, soft-close doors

    Unrivaled performance, For The Drivers

    Although much has changed and has been improved for the new model year, the unrivalled performance of the Lotus Eletre and Emeya has remained untouched, resulting in the two models still being the benchmark in their respective segments. As a ‘600’, both feature a 450 kW (603 hp) all-electric dual-motor powertrain and all-wheel drive as standard, a combination that guarantees stunning performance. With a 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.15 seconds for the Emeya 600 GT (Eletre 600: 4.5 sec) and a top speed of 250 km/h (Eletre: 256 km/h) as just some striking examples.

    Things can always go faster, and the new Eletre and Emeya ‘900’ provide unmistakable evidence, representing superlatives in terms of performance. Both rely on a 675 kW (905 hp) strong dual-motor powertrain, providing the Emeya 900 with an acceleration from a standstill to 100 km/h in a stunning 2.78 seconds (Eletre 900: 2.95 sec) and a top speed of 256 km/h (Eletre 900: 265 km/h).

    No less impressive are their electrifying range and charging performances, which boost the Eletre and Emeya to the top performers in their respective segments. With a maximum range of 610 km (WLTP; Eletre: 600 km) they are also ideally suited for long electric road trips. And when it is time for a charging stop, the Emeya, for example, also proves itself as an absolute top performer in this area. Thanks to its 800V battery technology with Advanced Lotus Hyper Charging it can be charged from 10-80% in around 14 minutes (under perfect conditions) using a 400kW DC charger (Eletre: 20 minutes from 10-80% at a 350kW DC charger), giving it the status of one of the fastest-charging EVs in the world.

    Eletre and Emeya: two of a kind

    Like every Lotus, the Eletre – a pure electric performance SUV – and Emeya – a pure electric hyper-GT – are first and foremost cars ‘For The Drivers’. Their DNA is 100% Lotus, with exceptional, class-leading ride and handling, steering and aero performance. With their sleek design, powerful electric motors and luxurious interior, the Eletre and Emeya set new standards in the world of electric vehicles. The two share common characteristics like cutting-edge technology, a sophisticated design, exceptional performance and unparalleled driving experiences, whether you’re seeking exhilarating speed, supreme comfort or advanced safety features. A signature element of the Eletre and Emeya designs is their ‘porosity’ – the aerodynamic principle of air flowing through the vehicle as well as under, over and around it. Porosity was at the heart of the Lotus Evija’s design, is integral to the Emira, and has provided clear inspiration for both the Eletre and Emeya.

    High-quality interiors with luxury materials and tactile surfaces, a pristine fit and finish, customisable ambient lighting, an intelligent driver cockpit and intuitive infotainment systems create a premium and comfortable cabin environment, with features like ventilated seats with massage enhancing the overall immersive driving experience.

    Detailed specification and pricing on the new Eletre and Emeya line-up is available at www.lotuscars.com, or at your nearest Lotus Centre.

    Further information about the Lotus Eletre and Emeya can be found on the Lotus Media Site.
