Satu penghormatan Uncle,Managing Director duduk sebelah untuk tengok performance of the car, handling dan etc..
It's an honour to bring him for a drive by YS.
The VW dude was calm and composed. Testament to the confidence they have in their products and the driver Ofcourse.
That dude drive Golf R as his daily ride, im sure he should be familiar with this kind of driving.. 😄😄
@@repsolsp to be honest, vw cars does indeed has very good ride and handling. And can be considered as one of the best ride and handling among other car brands.
@@KC_88631 indeed, agree 200%
@@KC_88631 so how bout BMW or mercedes handling n is VW better than them in your experience?
@@msya2831 You cannot compare VW to Mercedes or BMW bro as their price point are different level.
For instance, VW Golf highest spec is RM169k where else a Mercedez A250 is RM253k.
VW handling should be best compared to Renault or even perhaps Toyota and Honda too.
Volkswagen is definitely having a comeback.
Uncle YS Khong, why not do a lucky draw for subscribers of your channel, the winner get a ride in a car of your choice to Genting and back.
Would love to be in the passenger seat one day!
Very good idea.
Saya agak setuju juga.
Great idea!
@@YSKhongDriving yeah please make it happen in the future 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏻
Brilliant suggestion
please executive man give YS more vw to test. other reviewers only talk bla bla this guy actually tests the cars for real and shows us what they can actually do. some cars surprised me with their handling because ive never seen anyone actually driving them fast lol.
Like i always tell our experienced rally driver, the chap sitting next to him feels 300% the thrill of watching the run on video. Great drive sir! 😊💪💪💪
Thank you Nick.
Hi YS, 👍👍👍. There's only one thing left for Erik Winter to do ie. Improve the aftersales service of VW Malaysia, nationwide.
😄 good one.
Is it still bad? I expected some improvement
1:49 becareful for Myvi coming from left and right 😂😂
LoL , Malaysia sport car 🤣🤣
Uncle you revealed your age! Great to have such good coordination at such age. Unlike other comments here I thought the VW MD was terrified during the drive judging by the size of his eyes as his face was behind the mask. The more white you can see above someone’s iris the more terrified he is.
Just watched your Passat drive up and I thought you would have enjoyed the Arteon more without the MD on board.
Another entertaining watch and keep it up uncle!
Liked before the first 60 secs. Thank uncle Khong for all these amazing hill climbing videos!
Best driver to show the Atreon performance. Vw still going good . Thank you uncle Khong.
i really like your Channel Master Khong and envy all our Malaysian friends. Thanks for your excellent content and for consistently evaluating cars up and down Genting!
Uncle YS is the only proper car reviewer in Malaysia. The ONLY one! Much respect, sir.
Good job uncle yskhong! Super fast !
Impressive 👍. Another spirited drive, YS. Good car indeed
I m absolutely loving this..
After 2-3 videos , I became Uncle's fan and hit Subscribe.
Hope to see Uncle test drive more cars into your 70s....
Frankly, Uncle drive way better than most of us.
What can I said from a former Champs.
What a drive uncle, even Mr. Winter speechless 👍
What an awesome machine.. imagine how it's like if it had come with even the same powertrain as the Tiguan Allspace R-Line.. 220hp and 4Motion..
Hmm.. the previous Arteon (launched elsewhere like Singapore ) have actually 280bhp horsepower instead of the current 190bhp and 350NM of Torque instead of 320NM now. :X
Vw is a nice car. The msia tax made alot of the european cars unaffordable for alot ppl. Good job on the review. Golf GTI is a great hatchback!
agreed, but do we aware where does the import car taxes goes to?
@@krk24 for JPJ to buy their fortuners?
@@farmer9583 and earn more cash by imposing ridiculous rules on vehicles
@@farmer9583 yea that's about right one of it hahah..the rest get into some of the pocket
@@krk24 once of it they said it one of the reason to protect "NATIONAL CAR" 👎 n make more money
Just now i wonder when uncle going to test drive the arteon! Right now boom ready😂
hehehehe he knew the horrendous situation driving in Msia.. Nice one Uncle..
Keep up the good work. God bless and God speed .. always
Great video, and a nice car too.
After watching the RS6 video, the Arteon looks slow. Nice driving as always YS.
Would be nice to see Uncle test drive more cars with their MDs/CEOs. So epic! 👍👍👍
Phenomenal
Definitely will but this car thanks uncle for an excellent review.
Fantastic car !
Brilliant
woh... been waiting for this arteon
Awesome
Damn I love this old man. He just keeps making me laugh. All the way from South Africa. I came here for the VW Arteon and got hooked.
Uncle 3 days ago i was thinking of getting passat also watch your review, than today i was thinking to get a bit higher range, than boom i was about to see review and yours came out lol, definitely Arteon
Excellent choice!
this one seems to deliver power and handle curves so much better than that spongy tuned 220hp-civic. such a satisfaction to watch
Less then 10 min or less then 15 min, what a drive ha. I admire
superb!!!
Lovely car
What a great video 😋👍✨
Kudos Uncle Kong!
Wow YS Sir, super driving 🚗 👏 😳 🙄 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
eric has adapt malaysia "thank you" when YS say "thank you" he reply "thank you" 😂
This is all very entertaining , especially that controlled hantam
but next to you was a man that work with VW for 20 years
should asked him EVERYTHING , especially upcoming stuff
and most important question of all , what his favorite malaysian food!
He does not take durian, hahaha, and even if I ask him what models are coming, he will not tell me, so I didn't bother.
Terbaik lah Uncle👍🇲🇾🌺
YS Khong's age is N I C E
Wow...👍👍👍
German?? 🇩🇪👍
Quite all the hill 😂😂😂
And so confident about the car
Of course uncle YS himself😁😁
nice overtake uncle!
Waa uncle YS!! How u even get the managing director of Volkswagen to sit beside u? So lucky!!
It's the other way round man. How did the managing director manage to get YS. hahaha
Means myvi is the only potential challenger for VW in Malaysia as of the CEO impression lol
It's really funny that even he knows Myvi meme. 😂
Second 😅 nice driving uncle 👍👍👍 love your videos
Thank you Sam95
You know you have substances when the boss entertain you for this genting climb, I'm giggling what is going thru his mind sitting next to uncle.And yes VW give more cars to him.
Thanks SilverScreen for your great support all this while!
Nice Driving & nice car
Crazy fasttt
i will have no hesitation to book for my unit If this VW is reliable. Would probably wait for another 6-12 months to observe the market feedback
Great video! You are my favourite car review channel cause I love to drive up Genting too! But possibly to be more critical for future car reviews? Things like noise insulation poor, ride too firm, too much body roll, what competitors are better in what aspects etc.. perhaps even build quality and even reliability based on your experience cause right now every car you drive seems equally good no matter the brand or power. E.g perhaps this Arteon vs the Mazda 6 2.5?
Hahaha , I just love to drive, and some noises are music to me.
Wahhhhh 👍👍👍
excelent
this reminds of the drive i had last late evening in my skoda octavia 3 1.8 TSI 180HP, also made on MQB platform, similar engine, similar power to weight ratio with this car. Mine is manual and also Skoda lends more to confort rather than stability in corners, but damn, it was a fun "aggresive-ish" drive, pumped me with some adrenaline i can tell you that. I love the engine character, very free revving, very responsive, very smooth power delivery and liniar (mine is limited to 250Nm unfortunately, but still good enough). Maybe one day i'll upgrade to an arteon, since it fits the same category as my Octavia, but one class higher.
Wow, I love the fact that you can buy a manual. Over here, manuals are very rare, and almost non- existent in some brands.
Thanks for a very good share.
@@YSKhongDrivingyes, in Europe manuals are still available. Frankly, this engine kinda needs an automatic because i can't really do the shifts as fast as the dsg, but it's more involving.
A handsome and sporty Arteon deserve a better engine like the Golf "R". Enuff said.
Wah this md seems like have an experience in fast driving... look at his eyes
Wow. Erik Winter in the passenger seat.
U lejen lah, Unker! U can drive and sell (talk up) d car at d same time!
Btw, that x70 held up pretty good.
I was just waiting patiently for him to get out of my way.
So yeah, we got what uncle ask for, 4motion 280PS Arteon. Awesome!
11:16 That overtake though. 👍
I had been patiently waiting for him to move over for 20 seconds.
I can feel Erik's "calmness" from the video 😂😂😂 - LittleMin
'Mr.YS Khong, you are hired!'
Hopefully YS will test Hyundai Kona and X50 to Genting soon
Most experience man on the go!
Watch out for Myvis. Got it.
i was waiting for that word..."challenging"
Hahaha.
Waiting for R Lineesssssssss.... 🤩
WTS -> Volkswagen Arteon 2020. Management car. Lightly used and never abused. Sheltered parking only.
280ps version?
Plz also bring wagon golf or wagon passat to malaysia with affordable price. It will be great.
Brilliant video uncle :) Brilliant review however the only thing that disappoints me is that :
1. VW brought the Arteon quite “late” into Malaysia (while in Canada n Singapore we have it for almost 2 years)
2. VW’s decision to launch the Arteon as a CKD vehicle (my personal preference cuz if I were to buy a continental car I would rather have a CBU version)
3. VW Malaysia detuned the Arteon to 190 PS , with no 4Motion All Wheel Drive System and sunroof option...(To me it’s just horrendous...a VW is suppose to be fun and utterly brilliant to drive)
Despite all these complaints from a VW Arteon R-Line owner living in Canada...I still envy the Malaysian version for having the Golf R steering wheel as a standard equipment. Cheerios everyone :)
I think the decision to make it a CKD did impact the launch timing, and also the Covid 19 issuue contributed. to it. some people may prefer a CBU, but the majority of people will appreciate the CKD programme as it brings the price down to a decent level. We are already paying high prices for cars here in Malaysia. Thanks for your input anyway, Cheers.
We would also rather have Conti cars as CBU given the choice but a VW Arteon 280PS 4Motion alrdy cost USD58k. I am sure most Canadians and Yankees will jump. Brsides, Malaysia is a tyropical country. Sunroof is a waste of space and option.
the performance of the car vs Volkswagen' s man of few words
Uncle u wearing a black sub? Nice watch
Both rolex user ❤️
Hello uncle, I just want to ask you something. How does it feels when doing the shifting manually? Does the dct responded the way you wanted or a bit tad slower in each drive mode?
It responds quickly enough.
@@YSKhongDriving If you say so, thats mean the Arteon R 4motion would be better in very aspect. It's sad that we only got the R Line version here😔
Uncle: First thing first get ready
Md face: pale
Erik seems very nervous seeing the way Uncle YS driving the car, hanging on for dear life on the grab handle... 😆😆
By the way, YS - how is the NVH for the car? Can hear the engine noise intrusion into the cabin but that’s bcos of the high revs, but what about the road and wind noise..?
The car is built as an executive sedan, and behaves like that in so far as NVH is concerned.
21:00 Actually which is the best way to tell if you are cornering at the maximum capability of the car? When it starts to screech a little? Or it has no screech at all?
Depends on your lines. I can make it screech everytime, for effect. Fastest is when it just starts to screech.
YS Khong, a few weeks ago when I drove up to Genting, I noticed Toyota Innova taxis was driven effortlessly up and even overtaking other cars. I would be interested to know if you could drive one up to Genting and give us your reviews. 😁
I need some passengers.
🤪 Malaysia driving....so many things I could point out, it'd be easier to point out the good driving I've seen... 🤔 I can't think of any 😂
Need feedback on Arteon Vs Accord Vs Camry... In terms of power, comfort, handling... And overall feel... Curious about the new Mazda6 rwd too...
Yup. D segment face off.
MYVIs coming from left or right, oh my
14:40 That's where the real deal begins
Cabin is very quiet. Stable when goes through the stride. I think should be better than Camry.
More then enough i can see uncle YS more enjoyable to drive compare too 800 bhp audi... Uncle able to floor it....and enjoy the drive....the audi is monster uncle not even floor 1/4 the pedal
We need a dry day.
Another great test drive! Wondering if the "Ang Moh" beside you just pretend to be cool? Not surprised since he drive golf r as daily car!
😂😂😂
Wow the VW CEO on board.. i bet the insurance company says pheww..
Get Eric to bring ID3 and ID4 to our shores please
Overall handling, driving dynamic etc between Arteon R-Line and Honda Accord 1.5 Turbo which one is a better buy? No wireless charger, USB port at the back is quite a let down.
Basically it is a choice of a 1.5 litre turbo or a 2.0 turbo tuned conservatively, amd a choice of a cvt versus a 7 speed dct. Both cars are similar in size, one Japanese one German, both good. Take your pick. Wireless charger is not a deal breaker, I should think.
If this car can equipped 4 motion with slightly higher output, should be perfect.
Every car with 4Motion and additional power will be nice, hahaha.
Uncle, I need at least 10% of your skill. Could you teach me?😊
Sure.
How does this car compare to other D segments Uncle Khong?
It fares very well, and power is very good, compared to the others.
Uncle is the new 1.4 tiguan have smooth driving? And responsive engine? Is it ideal for 7 seater?
We will have to check that one out. Dawn?
Mine just arrived today
Seems like driving up better than the Volvo S60.
Is BMW G20 330I m sport one of the best sport sedan climbing genting hill ?
It's a good car.
