It's really about the driver, and a car as capacity/ instrument. I came here as soon as I've watched a car reviewer bringing the new vios up Genting. Though he was just reviewing the car on overall but it looked as if the car was struggling to go up the mountain. The weight shifting along the drives, cornering, car power shifts, acceleration timing and all, uncle YS made it all seem easy. Uncle YS can make lucky draw for fans to experience real driving skills!
First time seeing your vlog sir, and I must say you are AMAZING! The thrill felt by your guest, I felt it too! 😄 That car is a Vios, but sir, you made it look like a sports car! 😎
Like YS said it must have both things , the instrument and the driver to achieve the max a car can perform ! Here you can see the new Vios has a good chassis and handling . You can see YS is attempting those so called straight line through the turns , up and down hill with this car ! Chassis, suspension setup , kerb weight, tyres and brakes + of course a good driver 😅 are very important , don't you agree YS ? But usually novice drivers will only brag about top speed and HP without really know the real driving 😂
This episode has the most dramas. Firstly, there was a fast-lane hogger Ford Ranger. At the second part, there was a TNGA Toyota Altis trying to chase YS after being overtaken. However, this Altis was not a bad guy and just being curious to attempt chasing. I can see YS is not happy that the TC cannot be turned off permanently.
Beautiful driving! and thank you for the insight on this new vios. drove one of the previous ones and was disappointed with the handling. Glad to hear they made the handling better!
Because haters here can’t even afford or either that haters are too jealous after seeing new Vios are improving much than previous gen Vios and other rivals
this new vois is nice i love sedan car i see your video on screen driving up to genting i see this car is good and the makeup is look very fierce i love fierce car i gonna buy this car when i grow up i want to use this toyota as family sedan car.
for me, personally more enjoy watching uncle drive manual cars. love to see uncle's foot handling 3 pedals. this car looks regit on the road nice and I can see the uncle's face smiling when he enjoys taking corners.. but the passenger looks frightened when the uncle put more acceleration while cornering.
Overall pretty good for this new gen vios,the only thing that's not doing well is the backseat and support position,for taller guy sitting for long journey will feel uneasy
I have a suggestion that uncle YS can add a question like "will i buy one?" at the end of each video. That should give all the potential viewers a definite answers. However i think by doing so inevitably will cause conflict with some manufacturer eh?
I bought a sports car, a sports car that can carry things, and a sports car with four doors. The sports car that does not exceed RM 100,000 is you! This is the 2023 ViOS Grandtourismo 🎉😊🎉😊 The sports car does not have a spare tire, the head is low on the back and the back seats cannot be folded, which is normal to me. . Maybe Toyota will transform the Vios into a sports car.😮
The new Toyota Vios GR should follow before the end of 2024 for Malaysia is also known as Vios Ativ outside Malaysia not for Australia Britain & Europe still this year or Brazil should receive new Vios sedan & Vios FS hatchback or is it Yaris G ?
Hi Uncle YS, great video and smooth driving. but seems the car is below average on the power, accelerating seems quite struggle. how is it compare to current City/Almera with 100KG more weight? BTW, the mountain in Langkawi is Gunung Raya (not Bunga Raya by mistake), I'm from Langkawi and its so grateful so see you stress test this car here.
The way Little Min react at part one was like oh shit this uncle drive so well i thought ur going to drive slowly XD second part nah man here we go again till the top nah im not going to let u drive down back to kl XD
Those that complains cant afford a T batch. Thats y they keep say this and that to "convince" themselves its a bad car 🤣 I test drive it last weekend, the overall experience is pretty good, just that the power may lack abit but driving is not all about power. Comfort is a priority also.
Jack honestly comparing between this and City, Vios is better than City in terms of quality, features, safety, handling, acceleration and technology. Besides, Vios also come with BSM, RCTA and 360 camera where City don’t have. Even City quality also not as good as Vios but at least better than Proton
@@jakecloudfield u are the one dumb 😅 buy entry car but expect harrier equipments for distinction. I didn't see Indonesia complain as much on the new vios, only typical Malaysian spoiled by p1 and p2. If u prefer perodua that much then buy the beza or axia lo. No one stopping u
If there's a more powerful version (like GR Yaris), it'll be a hit among young car enthusiasts! But Vios is already a popular car in most Asian markets.
Uncle sy nk blajr dngn uncle cara memandu boleh ke☺️☺️☺️ ...the power of motorsports not at the car,but the power of motorsports at the driver skill...
Uncle ys. I m struggling in between s70 an d vios. I know interior s70 better. Is it the stablize of vios better ? I drove vios. I feel vios better but slower. Im oso worry on 3 cylinder s70. If 4 cylinder it will be happier.
Why worry about the engine weather got 3 or 4 cylinders man? Look at the technology nowadays they all have worked it out. The important thing is it okay for you or not depending on the car for your suitable use. My opinion S70 and Vios are similar handling but with different engine and interior.
Nice ride but this was limiting the weight ratio with passengers I believe? Not sure. Would like to see the E spec variant up the hill too given the weight lighter and smaller wheel and of course this time with TC turn-off before take-off.
Mechanically the two are the same, and the OD of the two tyre sizes also should be similar, with the 17 inch wheels getting better overall grip and handling. The end result will be very similar plus or minus a couple of seconds. Weight will always be a factor in any vehicle of similar capacity, i.e. B segment
Toyota Vios in Malaysia has a 1.5L 106PS engine. But Toyota Yaris Ativ (same car) in Thailand has a 1.2L 94PS engine. The Malaysia one should be a bit faster than the Thai one. The Thai one is super slow.
The 1.2 saves more fuel. In thailand, fuel costs nearly double of what it costs here, hence the choice of the 1.2 liter engine. Malaysia decided on the 1.5 liter because we are power hungry. 😀
Depends. If the tyre is not damaged, the sealant can be cleaned off and the tyre can be reused. Usually if a tyre has gone flat and has run while flat, it is not recommended to reuse.
Because I didn't go any further than that, I suppose. You can explore that part yourself when you go to the showroom. Besides, we also did a walkaround video on this car, so please go watch that as well.
@@edmundwong805 I will reply the answers, YES. I am a Toyota Cross Hybird owner, you will need to press every single time after start the car and it's really annoying.
can i ask if you press the traction control button long enough until the traction control symbol pop up at the odometer or you just press it once? and if you did it in a stop position or moving.
Mr Khong, enjoyed your channel. How is the steering feel compared to latest city n mazda 2. Which is the best steering feel? Power which is the best among the 3 cars. Lastly what about the handling among the 3 cars.
Hello uncle, been watching ur videos for some time. I am currently in a dilemma of getting an X50 or Vios, have test driven both, am really impressed and favour the power of X50, but in terms of reliability, guess only toyota can defeat themselves. Actually I have booked vios but the waiting list is 5 months 😵and the power is far less impressed than the X50, and the x50 feels more premium than vios. Only reason of booking the vios was to have a peace of mind. Which would you pick, X50 premium or vios? Appreciate your input!
The X50 definitely has bigger power, and the interior space is a bit more. So it depends on your choice really. Of course the Vios would have better consumption and thus lower running costs. And reliability is a given. All depends on what you want and need. If you can afford the X50, go for it. From your words, I can see you favour the X50.
@@YSKhongDriving thanks for the advice!! Only thing concern me is the after sales service of proton, heard a lot of unsatisfied cases. Anyway, thanks for your input!!
@@novalfye007 yes, I decided to still go for vios, she'll be arriving next month, City is not even in my list tho haha, not a fan of its look, and interior feels much cheaper than the vios. I've never test drove any city so can't comment on the performance but I heard they are abt the same.. Personally I would suggest vios for its comfort, and peace of mind.
Why the TCS need to take over at most of the cornering? Is this indicated the chassis is not good enough? I remembered the new persona you drove does not even invoke the TCS.
Hi Mr.YS Khong, could you please share your experience with me, between honda city hatchback and toyota vios 2023, which one are better in comfort, handling and low end torque?
They are very similar, but you should check each one to decide which to buy. We can help ypu to buy the right car - so get in touch with us on provate messaging
