YS Khong. You are on form today! The best driving ever I seen from your channel and I watch a tonnes of your Genting videos. You visibly improved since the early UA-cam videos where you are slower. Really level up and shows even a very experienced driver can improve. Master of Genting liao. Your video brought countless joyc to car enthusiast like me. Thank you boss.
😳HOLY SH#T!!! He scared me just watching him drive on my phone. I had no idea a stock 1.5 turbo Honda Accord was capable of those kind of maneuvers. Most impressive. 😳🤯
wow definetly you were pushing harder than usual videos for sure. amazing to see what these cars can actually do. amazing drive. theres no other channels pushing cars like this specially in SEA. keep it up YS never stop.
The simulated gears on the CVT really helps figuring out what speed the car is going. Much better experience. There is a high pitch whine from the transmission. I suspect the CVT won’t last if driven hard. The car handles very well for a large sedan.
It will last as long as you change the fluid regularly people need to do research on modern Honda cvts they’re quite reliable I never hear of them failing
I thought I saw the meter tops 160kmh. And the corner seems nicely taken. Honda really perfecting it. Nice drive uncle despite the distracting loose stuff.
For a front wheel drive vehicle, the Accord handles well. I have the 2018 Accord EX and I have been very satisfied with the ownership for 2 years. No repairs or any issues other oil changes, wheel balancing and an alignment.
If any of you guys driving a CVT car, please do the CVT fluid change more often (according to your driving style) & do a proper clutch re-adaptation too. Once you start neglect the cvt, when the steel belt inside breaks, it will be a catastrophic damage to the gearbox. Non of those repairing just the valve body like on normal AT. It is in my opinion that large sedan like this shouldn't have small sized engine, no matter how much the power output is. NVH & luxury should be more of its selling point. It does sound kinda rough too & that cvt whine is pretty noticeable or maybe it's just the mic picking more sound than it should. Probably the car could use with more sound insulations tbh.
Honda using torque converter cvt, there is no clutch in this cvt. Hence it is smooth like conventional AT and no traffic jam inching problem of a clutch over heating cvt.
I own a civic and let me tell u this.Ur perception that cvt is noisy is correct.However after 3 years owning this and this is my conclusion.U will 98 percent of the time vl not accelerate hard and u vl nvr hear cvt whining.The more faster u go,the lesser sound u hear.This cvt have all my passenger say the car is so comfortable and nvr had anyone complain on whining.Power is more than sufficient at 4k rpm.
Uncle YS nice driving! i like how you scrub speed using the corners rather than using brakes at the uphill sections. Also i think the camera angles is perfect, makes us feel we are in the car.
Wow, this time i can see the agresiveness. U r def the pro🙇🏻♂️ and i can say, this is the most wild and rally like of all car u drove up there. I love this!
Uncle YS Khong should make it a tradition where he test the car without knowing the type of tyres then make a reveal later to have a more precised assessment. Edit: Also I can say the CVT perform well I think. Not as lagging and unresponsive or else the drive would be difficult to connect between the car.
I've just seen this Chanel, and uncle YS reminds me of my father. the looking and style to talk. also, he has some experience with the car too. I'll subscribe now
Amazing Genting hill climb by YS Khong !....near perfect conditions , little traffic , bright & dry track/road except for 1 dumb hogger . Joy to watch sifu's ' pull & push' steering skill & maneuvering for a straight line direction round the corners. Got worried at your concentration deficit ref a unstuck camera ...insignificant irritation @ best. Thank you very much for another fabulous hill run.
Ive already drive my accord 1.5t for almost 5+++km n 6 or 7 times to GPO but its really scary to see uncle just drve it like a hot hatch.. excellent drive sir.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You drive good today . In the future I would appreciate if you give cross comparisons with other cars from same segment like Camry and mazda 6 in terms of drive feel, stability , and comfort.
I noticed it's not about the engine displacement (cc) or the engine 'size' that determines the power of a vehicle nowadays, it's the horsepower and the torque that we should look at.
Awesome Uncle YS Khong! love ur driving skill... the best ever I have seen so far... and yes, this Accord 1.5TC-P the best value D segment everyone can buy... thats why we actually brought one, Just after MCO 1.0 lifted... class leading interior space, best ADAS system in the market and very powerful too
How was the the CVT gear box performed? Is it that whiny? And the ride comfort? If it wasn't for CVT, I would get this accord instead opted for camry ..and its CBU
@@muhamadrosly4058 ... a little at high speed, but for me... its nothing... comfort wise... practicular the same with Camry... rear passenger has more space than Camry... spec sheet are far better than Camry... especially the Honda Sensing suites of ADAS... and of course, more powerful as u know right
I agree with you sir about car design nowadays. Merc also started not to differentiate between models. You cannot see the difference between C & E class.
Amazed how the top range revs were used most of the time with the CVT. Indeed, there must be quantum gain in development and refinement. A wonderful demo of how well the CVT matches for the engine size and tune. Er now how about a comment of the every day drive to market character?
now this is fast, i rarely feel fast watching your videos. the accord is good right. i was amaze with the different tuning of this car compare to civic. feel faster and gearbox feel like normal cvt. hahaha its hard to make 18 inch scream, but u really pushing it. i hope honda malaysia bring the 2.0 turbo, at least open for order. value for money.
That CVT whine progressively got louder, which means to me that it’s an issue with the transmission getting too hot when under this kind of stress. Won’t last long
hello uncle,saw a videos of you driving bunch of protons,would absolutely love to see you driving manual satria neo cps r3 if you could get one ,i'm eager to see how it handles around genting with its "lotus handling" touch! :)

The first time the camera fell off it startled me till i jumped off my chair, superb uncle as always.
Uncle Khong always makes a sedan car looks like a sportscar
😳HOLY SH#T!!! He scared me just watching him drive on my phone. I had no idea a stock 1.5 turbo Honda Accord was capable of those kind of maneuvers. Most impressive. 😳🤯
Uncle's driving so professional.
After uncle says "here we go"I feel goosebumps😆
Watching Uncle YS just brightens up my day, love from Bangladesh🇧🇩
Thank you!

Thanks for your support.
The best Genting Run! Just WOW!

The car handles very well for a large sedan.
Yeah heard it too. Sounds like ambulance.
It will last as long as you change the fluid regularly people need to do research on modern Honda cvts they’re quite reliable I never hear of them failing
I love the distance between the car and drain when you take corners!
I thought I saw the meter tops 160kmh. And the corner seems nicely taken. Honda really perfecting it. Nice drive uncle despite the distracting loose stuff.
Videos are sometimes sped up for dramatic effect.
@@YSKhongDriving haha
Incredible driving skills..so calm and composed!
For the next time..when we saw who's drive faster and aggressively up to genting it's should be uncle. "🤴 king of genting"!!
YS KHONG...you are great and legend. Driving skills is in your blood. thank you for your review...from kerepek tempe muizzman -- shopee, malaysia

Excellent. Thanks for the feedback.

That whining is from the typical cvt belt... if we take out firewall and sound insulation ... it will be super noisy hahahaha.

Wow the 1.5L turbo can pull I am impressed
Some say he drives with a smile in his rally car 😅
Was he a rally driver?
@@wanbee3635 yes he was
Wan Bee 5 times national champion
Some say, he schooled the Scirocco with a Myvi..
@@eugp4198meaning that myvi the true legend as well as king of highway viral is real... 👍
1.4 tonnes but you lug that around like a samurai with a sword. Excellent drive. Stay safe sir.
Great run. Love your honest review and your driving skills is superb! 👍🏼🤣
Video xpernah kecewa.!! Mantap uncle!!! I wish one day i can sit beside. And layannzz your driving 😘😘
This car is a beast for 200ps. Price is high though but lots of comfort and great handling 👍. I love this car 🚘
But still not furious due to cvt.. Trust me.
@@muhamadrosly4058 CVT advantage is during uphill driving and fuel efficiency, takes time to adapt it but surely good after that
Wah crazy this uncle driving so fast effortlessly 😅 Very pro
Great stuff YS..... Nice turbo spooling sound, sounds like a super charger.
I think that is cvt screaming 😂
ok at first I thought he was a normal uncle testing drive the car, until the genting hill hike XD brilliant uncle haha
Uncle YS nice driving! i like how you scrub speed using the corners rather than using brakes at the uphill sections. Also i think the camera angles is perfect, makes us feel we are in the car.
What would Malaysia be like without Lim Goh Tong, thank you uncle Lim for Malaysia’s greatest road!!

Can't wait for uncle to test the City RS Hybrid i-HEV
Wow... you know when Uncle likes the car when he drives it like this.
I did a drive up same day as you but in the afternoon with my Civic 1.8. I noticed the Toyota Innova taxis is now the king of Genting now. 😁
A roti canai must taste so good after this kinda drive 😂
Ive already drive my accord 1.5t for almost 5+++km n 6 or 7 times to GPO but its really scary to see uncle just drve it like a hot hatch.. excellent drive sir.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sedap dia belasah jalan genting. 😂 Teringat zaman muda2 dulu slalu lepak coffee bean.
Hahaa
Love your passion even reviewing a daily ride car !
You have mad driving skills uncle! Keep it up and take care. I love your videos!
You drive good today . In the future I would appreciate if you give cross comparisons with other cars from same segment like Camry and mazda 6 in terms of drive feel, stability , and comfort.
Making me drool. Can't wait for the Arteon review and see how it fares. Fingers Crossed 🤞
Uncle, saya nak berguru dengan uncle... Terbaik lah uncle
Very good driving skills + nice comments. Subscribed!
Your roads are also silky smooth!
Thank you.

I think it is Mazda who started these trend with the Skyactiv series.
If uncle is a police, i don't think criminals can run away from you... 👍
love ur driving skill n ur review
Uncle YS, superb climb. You really tekan the Accord kaw2!
Always love the way u drive, keep it up uncle Ys💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I love his smile when he starts racing it haha!
For some reason I was leaning into those turns with him lmao.
happy to see this video coming out. love that sunny and enthusiastic laugh.
Eat the corners like a piece of cake..never boring.
However do hear the Accord engine roar quite a bit
This new accord is very powerful and i think handling is good,thanks uncle ys
Can't wait to see u to drive the New Honda City with the High Torque✨
Uncle syg sempoi.bhagia rseny tgk uncle drove.hr2 mst mau tgk
the bag at the back was having the ride of its life. hahha. Great driving Uncle.
Sorry about that. Wil anchor them next time.
@@YSKhongDrivinguncle next time anchor me instead of the bag truly speaking I'll be honoured to do so. 😁😃😃😃😃
Await proper review of the arteon especially reliability incl if its equipped with trans cooler for the dsg.
The best Genting run video.....👍
The gearbox whine is quite audible
Amazed how the top range revs were used most of the time with the CVT. Indeed, there must be quantum gain in development and refinement. A wonderful demo of how well the CVT matches for the engine size and tune. Er now how about a comment of the every day drive to market character?
I drove it on the highway sliwly.
Accord handling very good, Uncle Khong also skillful.
But CVT sound like EV car sound, very loud.
CVT only good for cruising but not for this kind of spirited driving.
This is the best video out there about this car. I subscribed to the channel!
Thank you very much
@@YSKhongDriving Just purchased mine and waiting for delivery. Your spirited driving gave me the strength I needed to be patient!
I'm the only one thinking that BE CAREFUL UNCLE......but uncle be like "I GOT THIS SH1T DONT WORRY"
now this is fast, i rarely feel fast watching your videos. the accord is good right. i was amaze with the different tuning of this car compare to civic. feel faster and gearbox feel like normal cvt. hahaha its hard to make 18 inch scream, but u really pushing it. i hope honda malaysia bring the 2.0 turbo, at least open for order. value for money.
Uncle Khong, remember to drink a cup of coffee in the early morning :D
The real review starts at 11:55 - great review!
Hahaha.
Sedap jugak bunyi dia masa laju, cuma ada bunyi tayar masuk dalam kereta
Uncle and the car perfectly together....."Mature but joyous"
Love yr driving skills Mr Khong..
Thanks.
@@YSKhongDriving keep up the good work Ms Khong..
That CVT whine progressively got louder, which means to me that it’s an issue with the transmission getting too hot when under this kind of stress. Won’t last long
Love the way uncle test the car through tight corners at Genting, but cant help to hear the screaming of cvt whining
That "Something down there" was very distracting even for Uncle YS Khong haha
Very nice Uncle, I can see your really enjoying yourself unlike when your driving the Almera during your previous video,haha
Best Genting run video 👍
Uncle, the sound you hear was your bag hence the noises 🤣🤣
Yes, too much sideways forces. Need to tie it down. Sorry.
@@YSKhongDriving but i laughed throughout the whole video when I keep hearing the noise 🤣
Driving skill is superb
King of Genting😘
I❤the cvt whine
Jangan main2 dgn ini uncle, super duper legend
It's your bag at the back uncle. lol
Its look bit struggling compared to new Civic naik Genting Test😅 Uncle awesome🇲🇾
It's quite quick actually.
hello uncle,saw a videos of you driving bunch of protons,would absolutely love to see you driving manual satria neo cps r3 if you could get one ,i'm eager to see how it handles around genting with its "lotus handling" touch! :)
I don't know if it's the sound, I don't know what it is, but it seemed like one of the fastest routes on the canal. Greetings from Colombia
Hi Arcturo, all the way feim Columbia. Welcome to the channel.
you are very skillful driver. power
Terima kasih atas review mr khong
It can possibly reach a top speed of 200 km/h and possibly have a cutoff at about 207 km/h due to its 1.5 L turbocharged engine
I cannot confirm because we mever hit that speed.
@@YSKhongDriving Hope you do a 0-100, speed vs rpm and top speed soon
It your stuff that making noise uncle YS... it’s your beg... lol 😅
As i remembered there was a few models you've drive mad like this. Such as myvi..
so much tayar noise around corner but cant argue this sedan is meant for Comfort..
The turbo sounds... so pleasing to ears... Hii uncle
Hi Vanness
Great driving as usual Boss! A lil bit more aggressive than usual.
The CVT gearbox screaming badly
plot twist, it was actually the turbo sound
I used to own a Proton Iriz 1.6 CVT, and when driven hard, there was no whining at all. I wonder why Honda's CVT sounds like that.
@@wangmat9219 yes, all honda cvt got a very loud whining sound intruding to the cabin.. but still quite unbreakable compared to other cvt
@@jaybee6464 I have the pre-facelift Civic and it doesn't have CVT whine at all but I noticed very obvious whine on the facelift model.
@@wong924 13:50 that whining sound is the cvt i think, i was joking about the turbo lol
Wow... simply wow uncle
