Hyundai Kona N-Line Genting Hill Climb - Work Car Week Days, Fun Car Weekends | YS Khong Driving

- Guys and Girls - the Hyundai Kona N-Line is the best ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) version of the Kona, with extra N-Line embellishments including also the full suit of Hyundai Smart Sense, Hyundai's version of ADAS, which now includes pedestrian detection, amongst other features.
18-inch wheels and what feels like a re-tuned suspension setting makes the new Kona N-Line even more fun. Handling is very 'predictable', and it is even able to take some last-minute braking and the set-up helps to pivot the car into the turns.
The weight of the Kona N-Line is a little under 1,400 kg, and the brakes are more than adequate to handle this mountain, at the very least, even when pushed hard.
A word of caution though - please do not emulate the driving style, as the driving is done by a trained driver. We do it so that you can see just how good the handling is. Front-wheel-drive vehicles do tend to under-steer a little, but it seems the design engineers have managed to tune the suspension so that the vehicle behaves in a more 'neutral' manner, and the ride is just a little on the firm side of comfortable - this gives the Kona a good balance between comfort and agility.

Uncle, your expression was like a ‘happy kid’. So much fun & joy on Hyundai Kona.
i have own Tucson 1.6T with 7-DCT, powertrain system is quite fun especially Sport Mode, love it! current hyundai suspension and chassis much much better than old hyundai car( before 2015)
i owned the tucson 1.6T (2019/2020 - facelifted). Comfort mode is enough to put smile on my face everytime. Switching on the sport mode puts the tucson in a crazy mood. lol
Planning to purchase a tucson... Any advice?
@@mohamadambrose8717 2.0L or 1.6T? if budget is not an issue, go for the 1.6T
@@nitric75 1.6T seem good..😆
@@mohamadambrose8717 just make sure the dual clutch life span is still good (if its a used car). The only way is for hyundai center to run diagnostic. I am not sure whether generic ECU reader can retrieve it or not. look for the facelifted version with full LED headlights.
hebat uncle drive the car.. cam main game.. Steady uncle
Steady uncle.. mantap..👌👍
2 hari lepas saya baru test drive Kona 2.0 active, seriously best, handling best dan agak selesa kabin terasa luas, setting position driver like sedan x rasa tinggi walaupun Kona is SUV crossover segment B, .
Lalu jalan raya x rata tiada bunyi rattling pelik2 smooth sahaja. Absober sangat baik boleh serap pelbagai bentuk permukaan jalan raya.
Ada 3 mode traction control and 3 mode pemanduan so nice.
Uncle YS King Of Genting. Heart in my mouth whenever he driving🤣
Thanks, and please drive carefully at all times.
Thanks for the reply uncle. Yes enjoy seeing your drives representing Malaysia and also your skills. Will remember to drive safely always! You stay safe too uncle
Minimal understeer. I think it might even oversteer if you go crazy haha. Surprisingly good for a fwd suv. Good run as always sir!
It didn't - so perhaps I was not going fast enough. Yes, we always have a bit of reserve around the corners - don't want to embarrass ourselves, right?
went up the hill last week, the road condition are getting worse up there once you pass the premium outlet. I can see how shaky the dashboard is hahaha. Great drive uncle!
This N hunger for throttle but road seem to busy, damn.. 😆😆 safe drive uncle.
Uncle I can see you smile with this kona. Shoud a fun car
No wonder no one is there to sit next to you uncle YS. If me even I'm speed freak, would have had heart attack sitting inside that Kona while you're slamming the throttle at 110kmph up into those tight coners...😅😅😅
Looks like Hyundai Kona is now my new favourite. But no worries X50 and X70 coz you two also not bad...😊
Yaay, genting is here from Uncle ys. Love you Uncle ys
Love for Tyre slippage 😂😂💚💚👍👍🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
Kona for Genting Corner 😄
Nice. . . Misty Mountain Hop
I cant believe I'm getting the Kona N in 5 days :) cant wait
Fantastic!
Very good video uncle
cant wait for you to try MK8
Im kinda thinking, is this car really good or is it good because you are driving it? This is an electric car, am i right? Yet you make it like a very powerful car. Watch other review about this car, really felt in love with its spec but never thought it could be this good when watch u driving it
Hi, thanks for gracing our channel - this is the internal combustion engine variant (ICE) with a 1.6 liter turbocharged engine 195 hp, and 265Nm of torque - a bundle of fun. If a car is not good, I have to drive it slower. A good handling car allows me to really put it through its paces, especially around the bends.
I thought this video is new myvi facelift hill climb when you can do Uncle Khong
Stay tuned, Lim You Peng!
Always, nice run by uncle.
How much is this beast selling in Malaysia?
Above RM150k
Uncle, how about electrified kona?? Are u planning to genting touge it??
Waiting for car.
Uncle, since you have tried Kona Turbo pre facelift... Did you feel any difference enough in handling between these two?
Or the newer N Line has KONAring a miles better?
Seems they have tuned the suspension somewhat, as this seems to hold the road better. Oh, and the 18-inch wheels help too. Cannot remember the tyre size of the pre-facelift.
This version comes with Continental Premium Contact 6 too. A tad noisier than Pilot Sport 4, but it holds on the road as good as, if not better than, PS4.
YESSSSSSSSSS finally
You are welcome!
did you hit a breaks or just change a gear while cornering boss?honestly l never comfidence when cornering..
Apply brake before cornering, not during cornering. And ofcourse u have to use good set of tyres. not china tyres yeah ...
@@navinkumar1674 👌👌💪💪
It is hard on the throttle, or hard on the brakes; all braking is done on the straight before corner, and acceleration is done after the turning point.
@@YSKhongDriving 👌👌
Uncle YS, compared to Mazda CX30, which do you prefer ?
The question is, which one do you prefer?
Handling does seem sharp. How much…?
If I am not mistaken, it is RM156,888 OTR before insurance. Get it quick before stock runs out. This is a CBU.
this or cx3 in terms of handling? uncle YS
This one is more powerful, for sure. Have not driven the CX3 for more than 2 years so I cannot really remember, but it was very good on this mountain as well.
Hi guys, I'm planning to drive up to genting for the first time. Can someone teach me when and how to shift between gears using automatic transmission?
Just put into 3 and drive normally. Coming down, use low gear on the steep slopes and on the lower slopes use 3.
@@YSKhongDriving Hi, thank you for the reply! Just want to make sure I don't have to shift to 2 if I'm not driving fast right?
which better uncle…this or x50?
If budget constraint, the X50 is best. If budget no problem, the Kona is the choice. Choose the vehicle that best suits you. Watch the X50 video too, and check out the stability compared to this.
@@YSKhongDriving thanks!
Y no one biker races u ?
Because I never race with anyone.
@@YSKhongDriving 😂😂😂🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰👍💚
malaysia's road bump take thier job seriously 🥲😂
??
Classic w123 going up genting?
Was there one? I didn't notice. We must take your car up again.
I think the powertrain in this car is slightly more playful compared to the one the X50 But the interior is no where near as nice as the X50.
I really don't judge on the interior - anyway, just buy the car that appeals to you the most.
Agreed
Powertrain is one thing, chassis tuning is also another area that Kona does much better than X50. X50 is a typical Chinese car with very soft suspension.
@@wong924 you driven both car and compare before? And do you know the x50 suspension tuning Mal and China is different? You also driven china version of x50 before?
@@brandonwoo8299 I never drive a Binyue before but X50 is as soft as MG HS and ZS, both I have tested in Singapore before. Have you tried a Kona before?
Nice one uncle. What do you think of the Hyundai so far esp in terms of handling and performance against the Jap and continental if price is not a factor.
The Hyndai vehicles are great at handling. Most car companies can tune their cars nowadays, because many of them use very similar set ups.
@@YSKhongDriving thanks uncle for the reply. Merry Christmas ⛄🌲
