I just love that camera movements showing how fast the SUV is going up the hill. Absolutely love it.
Keiichi Tsuchiya from JAPAN Ken Block from US But we have uncle khong from MALAYSIA!
I love how uncle was trying to drive fast to test the car while maintaining safety at the highest priority.
Wow... You have stepped up the game in the camera angles!
Oh wow.. this x70 is worth the price actually. And uncle.. i love the extra camera view from outside of the car. I see this is the beginning for more better video.. good jobs uncle👍👍
Absolutely fabulous active drive past shot! And given its an SUV from a new automobile player, it's definitely a commendable performance. Great choice of shots sir, and love to see more of these creative shots in your future vlogs.
The new camera angle from 3rd person is perfect! Looking forward to more content like this!
Best ever review for all. Thank you YS. Awaiting for other SUV like C-HR & HRV. Thanks
woww! camera angles is nice, and good looking wrist watch uncle khong. driving skill no need to mention, always on top!
Nice touch with 3rd camera confirmed just how fast you were driving 😀....Great vid YS👍
new front and tail camera angle, i just LOVE IT !!
Thank you for the video Uncle YS. You're the best! 👍🏻😘
The legendary Uncle Khong back in action👍
Really good drive uncle. Honking to allow other driver know our existance. Many will think this honking is scaring people off but it is actually opposite. Just to warn some drivers who might not well aware of their surroundings. Ironically some drive will get intimidated when we honk them but I still do it if really necessary. This X70 have solid chassis that helps in you handling so firmly through bents.
Mr Khong, every cars in your hand are like Racing Car, fantastic!!!!! hahaha
Can't wait to see you driving X50 and D55L next year
Wow you are excellent driver uncle, the SUV purs like a sports car while you are at the wheel. Can't wait to have the Azkarra version here in the Philippines.
Such a nice car. You handle it really well. Thanks for sharing. Terima kasih.
Wow uncle Khong... Awesome drive sir... Nice review of the car by a legend 😀
love this channel, it makes me wanna drive all the time

Good review YS. Could you share thoughts of comparing between x70 and cx5 on both your Genting run?
Excellent driving and thoughtful with jovial mixed comments are Hallmark of your video... keep it up..we visited genting highlands in July 2019 by van during our exotic trip to beautiful nation MALAYSIA...

Hi Uncle Khong, can you do a video about How to use the + and - from the transmission box, also secondly, how to use a pedal shifter? i can't seems to find video in youtube that can do a good explanation about this 2. it would be great if you could make this video going uphill in genting. Thanks :)

Actually there is really nothing to show, which explains why there is no video by anybody. It's about selecting the right gear to engage for each corner; same with the paddle shifters. The use of plus minus and paddles are on the same principle of using gears in a manual.

Uncle, may I know at what speed & rpm you climb the mountain? & Should've drive all the way up especially those few final steep corner ..
@YSKhongDriving
4 жыл бұрын
We normally don't go all the way up because it takes too long a time, and there is oncoming traffic in some places. For the gears and rpm, the best guide is to try to keep the rpm in the power band. If not sure, use auto mode and let the vehicle decide. Finally, please note some videos or parts may have been sped up for dramatic effect; please do not attempt any of the driving styles as they are all performed by professional drivers.
uncle..your driving skill superb but also scary...haha..my feet keep hitting the brake even tho just watching your video ..

Sir, earlier on the climb is there a little bit of oversteer or its just the camera movement making me see like an oversteer?
@YSKhongDriving

No oversteer at all. If anything this car will have a bit of understeer, but I wasn't going fast enough for that to happen. Correct speed of entry, correct steering angle - that's how one should drive. Thanks for your comment.
Uncle YS.. Based on your driving the cars to Genting.. Did you look first type of tires is using or just drive it? Bcause the tires also make the hndling better rite and make we avoid the steer..

I drive according to what the total package can do. Yes, I do look at the tyres beforehand, to verify they have tread more than the brand. Most of the cars we test come from the manufacturer, so tyres are standard.

@YSKhongDriving
4 жыл бұрын
Similar, as both are FWD only. The X70 has more power, so is a bit faster, but Tiguan is lighter, so is agile. Overall, both can scoot! Like I said, there are some character differences, but the end results are similar.
Uncle drive so stable 👍🏻
Feel exciting when Uncle KS driving so fast and swiftly when going downhills, especially this SUV is bumpy and unstable when going fast to cornering... Phew...
Nice Drive. i subscribed this channel after i see this video. How about test drive Hyundai Tucson 1.6 TGDi, 7 speed DCT too, really expected... Regards

It's 183 PS for the X70.
Very smooth car and like the suspension. 2 key drawback for me 1) boot space is small; and 2) the steering is too light and feels less confident when driving at higher speed - wish they would make the steering heavier as with most Continental cars to give that added confident and premium feel.
