Im sure Malaysia is the best selling market for VW in South East Asia and also this is the best motoring channel in South East Asia. So I think if we ask for them to bring the Tiguan R and the Arteon R, for sure they will listen 😊🤞😆
Ill take this over a Merc or BMW any day. Powerful, grippy, 4WD, sounds great, and looks great with a fanstastic engine and transmission set up. Thanks YS for this. Really made my day!
I just drove this car. It drove very steadily. It has a strong back feeling when accelerating rapidly. The chassis is very solid and the brakes feel good. I think the price/performance ratio is much better than that of the 330I and C300. A car worth owning. This is the best car I have tried
my heart is pumping so fast seeing uncle driving so fast up to Genting Hill, welldone Uncle Khong, your driving skill paired well with the Arteon car performance. 😊
WOW what a cool driving I wish that I'm one of the passenger in the car ...I loved the way you drive the car...great skilled show by Mr. YS kHONG ......VW ARTEON plus the skill driving show by YS Khong really show that VW ARTEON is full of power tq
Damn, I am addicted to the engine sound & the generous Horn. I just did a little bit of research, if I have this budget, this would definitely be my first option, rather than Benz / BMW. I prefer big size sedan + strong powerful car. Plus, this car is affordable then other same luxury cars in the market. However, I not sure the maintenance & how durable for this car.
That’s awesome! Uncle YS happy with the car from beginning till the end. Can see the car handling and speed through all the corners was absolutely stable and let the driver full of confidence.
Yes, Uncle YS, absolutely awesome car. And also, with the digital speedometer, we could peep at the fantastic speeds you drove and took the corners, and all these confirmed by the little time you took to reach the top. And yes, please don't do this, we don't have the huge forearm muscles like Uncle YS. Hahaha...Beautiful car, drive and driver. What a joy to watch. Cheers.
I’m really happy watching this video.I’ve been waiting anxiously for it to come out. It really make it easy for me to decide whether to buy this car or not & definitely will but it.Thanks to u & erik!!!
Considering for a year, I saw the car again today and ordered the car again. It was silver. It was so beautiful. It was amazing. The price-performance ratio definitely exceeds that of BMW and Mercedes-Benz cars at the same price or even higher price. 4-wheel drive, 280 horsepower, 350 New meters. The massage seat, 700W12 HARMAN CARTON horns, the size and shape of the car are very generous and decent. Beautiful and sexy. There are many reductions in BMW and Mercedes-Benz, and the price/performance ratio is not high. So finally gave up. After a test drive of ARTEON, the site is very solid and can run through small potholes like a tank, very quiet and stable. It weighs 1.7 tons. Push back feeling, full of horsepower. Running long distances is super stable. There are discounts for buying now, which is super suitable. Looking forward to getting the new car soon. marvelous
@@johnbucis5844 Congratulations friend. I have had it for 11 months. So far no issues other than the occasional slight noise. Sometimes with 97 gasoline, sometimes with 95 gasoline. The overall feeling is very good. Prefer to drive long distance. Really not tired. Quiet. Enjoyed listening to music all the way. I bought this car and love its power and sound system. Very satisfied so far.
Thanks Uncle YS, really enjoy this one. In fact the best of all and really makes my heart pumping too. This car is huge and it handles so well and calm.
Bought this car 3 months ago. Really enjoyed the driving. The only thing I don't like is that it shifts up automatically even in manual mode. But hell yeah, the driving is way better than 3 series and C class for its price. Highly recommended!
A lot of the new cars will shift up; principally to save the engine and gearbox. Anyway when it is time, it should shift up. In Sports mode it should shift up at red line, and not before.
The deep rumble (not too loud) of the exhaust is surprisingly good and suite this car well. The run was so exciting and this is the highest speed that I saw Uncle Khong to drive in the Genting Run. Really enjoyable! #181km/h
The car is extremely planted and grippy as expected but it is also pliant and composed even sportiest setting. I see both of them shaking a bit but I'm sure if in Comfort mode the car will be fully pliant.
Mr Khong, I bet you had more fun driving this new Arteon R-Line than the Audi A5 quattro up Genting last time... :) Can really tell from the excitement in your voice... :D Great drive again, I'm excited myself watching you drive this beast... :p
If I was driving this car, probably risk crashing at some of the tight corners. I mean YS was taking corners at 80 km/h and I would probably only be at 20 km/h in a perodua! I was feeling rather intense just viewing the drive on my tiny mobile screen. If you watch on big screen sure screem lah! Exciting car. I think awd maintenance will be costly.
Hai uncle ys khong. Congratulations on 100k subscribers. I'm watching your channel since uncle have 100k subscribers. I have request to you uncle . If you have a chance to meet Erik winter again. Please send my regards and my request. Ask him bring to VW arteon shooting brake and arteon saloon other specs too pls. For Malaysia Market we have 1 arteon specs only. Other countries get many specs. Its really really disappointing. Even proton and perodua can offer with different specs. Why not VOLKSWAGEN do so.
When BMW and Benz arrived in Malaysia, they reduced their configuration, losing their due value and my interest in buying them. The configuration of Volkswagen's real materials is absolutely excellent value for money! Smart people should buy the public. Life always has to drive a German car.
Uncle YS Khong, could help to ask Erik whether VM will bring in Tiguar R. There is a lot of review in Taiwan for that and hope to see it in m'sia road too.
Wah , shiok looking the way you enjoy yourself to the fullest, I aim to get one by the age of 33, and may my goal come true. My next sedan car for family :)
@@YSKhongDrivingIt's great to hear from you Uncle YS:), I'm 31 and can't wait to have one, but reality and family commitments stop me from doing so for the time being. Perhaps Arteon can remain on the malaysia market for the next 1 years with Lv2 safety features, but I saw some articles stating it will be discontinued. I'm hoping to obtain it from Uncle at that time.
Impressive with the car and uncle Khong great driving skill at challenging Genting route.. seriously interested on what tyre was using on that day? if not mistaken stock tyre were given Pirelli P Zero.. Uncle Khong, which tyre u preferred for this Arteon?
I really didn't check, hahaha. I think I have to look at my own video again, on the blue one that came. Sorry, I review so many cars, it's sometimes hard to recall.
@@YSKhongDriving I subscribe to your channel. I found it so interesting. Looks like you're a car enthusiast and a racer back then. How old are you now? If I may ask.
Hi uncle. Please, its the same price with 330i bmw. Which will you prefer to buy? I saw both of your video, this arteon seems like put more smile on your face. Additional , which handles better?😁
The GR Yaris, being lighter and with stiffer suspension, made for competition, and a manual, is a more engaging druve, as you can see from the two videos. You can also see the Aryeon is a larger sedan that can do a lot of things the GR Yaris cannot, just as the GR Yaris can do a lot of things the Aryeon cannot. They are two different cars, and cannot be compared by just pure performance.
Because it is not imported by VPCM. Importing a car is not as easy as it appears to be. A car maker has to ensure there is enough service and parts support.
I bought the ARTEON R LINE 4MOTION. I am going back to China for 5 months. How can I deal with the battery loss when I don’t drive for 5 months. Some people say to remove the negative pole, and some say to remove the negative pole of the battery first and then the positive pole of the battery. Excuse me. Which one is correct.
Hello YS! I was trying to find out which car im gonna get between ( VW Arteon 4Motion R-Line & The New C-Class 300 2022 ). Can you provide me some advise please? That would be lovely!
Hi , I'm curious if u will pick this over the Audi A5 ? Because i don't know which one is the better option since they are both very similar. I am currently considering both as my next car but just slightly worried about the maintenance of the Audi compared to Volkswagen. Would appreciate the reply !
Soundaktor @ VW term for artificial engine sound piped in to the speakers. There is an option for you to switch it off. Choose Individual driving profile and off engine sound.
@@YSKhongDriving Small correction : Arteon is heavier than Tiguan. Tiguan 1680 kg (based on carbase). Arteon 1720 (based on WapCar estimate ; actual one won't lari much).
Hi Uncle Khong & Mr. Erik, any chance of us getting the current Polo? It’s long overdue and the one we have is pathetically outdated. Big VW fan here by the way!
@@YSKhongDriving Thanks for your reply Uncle Khong. The Arteon is a welcome addition to our range. It brings back some of the fun we lost when the Beetle, Scirocco and Polo GTI got the axe. The new Polo is a stunning car Uncle. It's really a shame we don't get it here yet. I'm sure you would absolutely have a blast with the new Polo GTI.
Supra is more refined, good for Touring and Sporty driving. This one is raw! And is a manual. For me, if it is only one out of the two... hahaha, very hard to choose. I want both!!!!!.
@@YSKhongDriving Uncle I think your comment got mixed up. I suppose you were referring to Arteon instead of Supra and Supra instead of Arteon. Supra has manual
I test drove the car a while back. Still cannot believe this car climbed a steep hill with 5th gear at 2000 rpm. So powerful.
Good also bias to higher gear so lower fuel consumption
2000rpm? Wow
Im sure Malaysia is the best selling market for VW in South East Asia and also this is the best motoring channel in South East Asia. So I think if we ask for them to bring the Tiguan R and the Arteon R, for sure they will listen 😊🤞😆

My thoughts exactly!
Same I would too 😁😁

Great comment.
Feels like a glimpse into uncle YS Khong's rallying career with this AWD Arteon! All you need is for Erik to read out the rally pace notes hahahaha
my heart is pumping so fast seeing uncle driving so fast up to Genting Hill, welldone Uncle Khong, your driving skill paired well with the Arteon car performance. 😊
I wanna live a life as exciting as uncle's when I'm 70!!
WOW what a cool driving I wish that I'm one of the passenger in the car ...I loved the way you drive the car...great skilled show by Mr. YS kHONG ......VW ARTEON plus the skill driving show by YS Khong really show that VW ARTEON is full of power tq
280ps AWD is the way to go.. can hear your excitement uncle YS!
I dn know how many beats my heart skipped watching through this entire video. Gosh. Uncle YS is TRUE LEGEND 💪💪
Wow, this car is fast!!!!! Glad to see Eric back.
Damn, I am addicted to the engine sound & the generous Horn. I just did a little bit of research, if I have this budget, this would definitely be my first option, rather than Benz / BMW. I prefer big size sedan + strong powerful car. Plus, this car is affordable then other same luxury cars in the market. However, I not sure the maintenance & how durable for this car.
btw this is not really a sedan..more like a hatchback with very practical boot..
Needs to be really well mentained if you're buying the Arteon. One of the best valued luxury cars here!
That’s awesome! Uncle YS happy with the car from beginning till the end. Can see the car handling and speed through all the corners was absolutely stable and let the driver full of confidence.
Another Arteon video, yes!! Just hoping VW maintain this line up. Don't let it die like Scirocco.
unfortunately people will keep buying the 3 series and c class..
Yes, Uncle YS, absolutely awesome car. And also, with the digital speedometer, we could peep at the fantastic speeds you drove and took the corners, and all these confirmed by the little time you took to reach the top. And yes, please don't do this, we don't have the huge forearm muscles like Uncle YS. Hahaha...Beautiful car, drive and driver. What a joy to watch. Cheers.
Absolutely nice for driving 😻just bought it last month and now I am really enjoying to have a long travel
Great choice! Congratulations!
So far so good? No confidence on their reliability
Thanks to ur previous video, i had booked mine an Arteon R Line, hope I don’t regret, still doubt on the reliability and after sales though
The excitement in uncles voice, fantastic! Cant wait for mine to arrive too.
I waited for this for so long. Thank you!😀
Good on you Eric, you kept your promise 🎉
I’m really happy watching this video.I’ve been waiting anxiously for it to come out. It really make it easy for me to decide whether to buy this car or not & definitely will but it.Thanks to u & erik!!!
Fabulous driving skills by uncle YS, fabulous car performance! Thanks, love the car.

A lot of the new cars will shift up; principally to save the engine and gearbox. Anyway when it is time, it should shift up. In Sports mode it should shift up at red line, and not before.

Finally waiting for this video Yes uncle YS it’s a beauty and the beast 🔥
Wow I think this would be your fastest lap up Genting, very nice video. Thank you.
This car is INSANE!!! The grip, the explosiveness... Damn, if I were driving it, I'd have jizzed my pants..
Wow what an exciting mountain drive!!
Honest to god..... i didnt even blink throughout t test..... bravo uncle....
Finally! Was waiting for this. How does the handling feel compared to the pre-facelift Arteon?
With AWD, it is a different world altogether. Loads of grip, as you can see from the video.
Was waiting for this, great stuff!
Wow so fast ... I also so excited
that downhill part before police pondok made me goosebumps. you drove it with full confident and excitement
I had gotten used to the car by then. It takes a bit of time to really feel what the car can or cannot do.
seen uncle feel so excited to test drive this arteon 4 motion.
I never seen uncle is so excited like this . Hahaha ..
Nampak a bit nervous uncle... with the VW boss at your side..
