Kia Picanto 1.2 GT Line (Pt.2) Genting Hillclimb - Let's Learn How to Drive in Fog! 

My picanto EX change rims 15inc tyre 195/50/15, layan corner very syok, my wife drive very fast layan corner I said to her please slow down 😆😆, picanto is very solid and fun for drive..

Love how he explains it well and those who are not car enthusias doesn't feel left out in the info

YS I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video. In particular your common sense approach to driving in different conditions, and replying to comments made by your viewers about indicating. I could not help but notice that this Picanto has a left-hand- drive orientation whereby the light and wiper binnacles are back to front. I did also watch your video on the Toyota Supra and what a difference! I agree with your comment about the fuel consumption for such a spirited drive. BTW we also have this very same model here in Australia. I think any Aussie thinking of buying this car should watch this video before making their decision. Thank you for an honest and unbiased view of this car. Keep you videos coming.

Another way that I learnt to drive in the fog is to open the app waze or google map. You need to set the location even though you know the location. The reason is the app helps you to know the layout of the road and the corner ahead of you. This method really helps me to drive confidence and faster in the fog. But still you need to take some precaution and not drive too fast.

This is a great little micro hot hatch. Kia produces good cars nowadays and it's a shame that Kia Malaysia is not doing enough to bring in more new models of Kia like the new K3 and Kia Soul. By the way, another good drive, though under foggy conditions. Drive safe sir!

Plz drive carefully in the mist uncle yr safety is our important ☺️ tq for the video uncle and happy chinese new year to u huaat ahhh

Tq for sensible talk n driving. Alot of youngsters look up to u. N they will learn ur sensibility in driving. Keep it up!!!!!👆👆👍👍

Nani , suddenly a kia from behind out of da fog , overtake everybody

Its one of the best and sturdy car for fun drive...and looks really stable!

I come from myvi 1.5 lagi best to kia picanto ex. The material, nvh, multimedia, handling and brake are far better than perodua. Enjoying the drive everyday after 1 year of ownership. Best decision ever made.

owned a Picanto EX since Sept 2018, and never once I regretted my choice choosing it over iriz or myvi. whenever people see my car their first reaction is "why not buy axia, myvi, iriz?" but once they have a go in my car they have their answer straight away. The Power to Surprise is true in this car. However I must say if I wanted more space or power I would've got the Iriz, just hope they replace the CVT with the same 4 speed here btw the 16 inch wheel in the GT line shown here is a bit overkill and more taxing to the engine. the 14 inch is fine. but if you want the sweet spot between comfort and handling you can upgrade to some 15 inch sport rims

It's good you mentioned about important of turning lights on on low visibility. many Malaysian driver still clueless on this. Should have more awareness video on this. BTW, am fell for more on this picanto after this video.. tempting...hehe. Later my kids will ask why daddy downgrade to a small car...

Uncle Khong, thanks for educating your viewers on the actual function of the hazard light. They just don't seem to understand it's only meant for those who's at idle..... :/

I must say this uncle very rare to the future....high end explanations given...thank you uncle or sir i must say.

This is one of my favourite videos, probably watched 3-4 times already. Sharing it to family and friends. Btw, I'm looking for a car, and sadly my parents think this car is too small for 3 of us. Really looking forwards to Uncle's City/Vios/Yaris/Almera/X50/City Hatchback? video and thanks again uncle, you likes 2 of my comments in your old videos, 非常用心的频道主，很难得。Hope you can see this comment too :) Stay safe, stay healthy uncle.

It is obvious that you did not fully enjoy this hill drive & it did register in your expression. The safe driving tips in foggy condition expounded are priceless : lights on to be seen , drive at speed corresponding to how far one's vision is ! In wet & thunderstorm condition on hi-ways , may like to add the danger of splashing sprays on one's windscreen blinding vision temporary ( eg overtaking lorries & trucks)...trick is to hold the steering straight & not to brake..! Visibility will come. Enjoy yr videos as I am only probably 5 years yr junior & yr tips are all from past experiences.

Damn dad you know how to drive and squeez the juice on that little cart!! Great job!

I think you became the celebrity of genting 🤣

I would like to watch 2nd run on this car

At last one car overtook you after all your so many reviews😁. Yes it's better to be safe then sorry. Thanks for your advice !Cheers & Happy New Year.

Nice tips u gave there uncle. And i hope u will redo this test when weather is clear. I like this car and i also hope there’s turbo version of this

When i was young. The best small car i had driven was the suzuki swift GTi. 1.3 twin cam 16v produces 100hp 0 100 in 8.6 sec.👍👍👍Really miss this car.

I aimed the picanto EX trim long long time , really cannot tahan liao 😍 Thank you Uncle for testing it, TBH a slight disappointment due to the fogs , can't witness the picanto's real potential like other videos.. Very tempted to test out myself after viewing it at showroom, but my dad told me “Don't test the car if you're not serious to own it" , I was like 😩. I recalled I've seen some photos of picanto ex trim test in sepang trackday , really wonder how good it is.. Love the feeling of small cars zipzap through corners on mountains or tight areas.. Haha All the best Uncle Khong

Kia really outdone theirself this time. Ventilated disc on the front? That's mad for economy cars, I've never heard of any economy cars use ventilated disc brake. Sounds like a solid car, it's interesting to see that 20 years ago Korean cars are labelled as trash. Now they're really good.

The best car in the world. Turbo Gt line! Love...

I have this car, it is nearly 2 years old now. personally i don't like this gear box. it is bit difficult to drive in traffic very sharp acceleration, and on highway once you pass 80 Kmph the engine is so loud and the fuel consumption gets low. other than that it is a well built car.

here in Europe this car is A-segment car, everybody consider it a city car, but I like it a lot there in Malasya you push it to the limit ;) This a very sporty car!

Would be nice to see a run with the 6 speed Kia Rio :)

Keep on teaching us. We would like to learn more from you. Tq sir.

TKT from S'pore. I like your video. I go up Genting once a month in mine 1 litre Opel Astra and I drive up full load with ease. Would like to see you test drive this model in your next video.

Please test drive the kia stinger. See whether as good as Civic Tyre R or New Supra

Very entertaining and instructive.

with only 59k u get full AEB and android auto apple car play. What a value buy car,,,,

Great review. I always have soft spot for small car, I wish it came out much earlier before I bought my 2018 Persona.

Idk why old model picanto had telescopic steering wheel but this new 1 dont have. I rented 1 from socar and drove it to johor north south fast lane did 170 180 the car held up fine turning circle is smaller than an axia.

No sir, a driver must use signal every time when going to change lane or before enter and exit junction no matter got car or not behind and make it a habit. If not someone can give excuse they didn't see any car even there is one. Other tips that you share I agree thanks you.

on my observe the picanto can absorb the big bump really well n not crash not like some perodua they go ketong ketong

10:01 "and he goes down the inside!!! And he takes the lead!!"

sportage nv come with 1.6T-GDi engine in Malaysia !

Early Bird checked in ! Great tips from Uncle!

14:44 "and he doesn't have his lights on, well done" this is made me laugh 😂.. OMG, this is the most thickest fog I've ever seen in your video, and you're keep driving kinda fast and safe in the same time, a big respect to you uncle, well played! 👍

thank you for the tips uncle

sir i like your work keep it up

if u added passengers and tried the same thing it would have been one heck of a test. Thanks uncle for the reviews :)

"only drive as far as you can see, but i cant see" HAHAHA that cracked me up a little

Me watching that white inspira without headlights just disappeared into the mist haha

I was planing to buy this car. Kelisa still running strong seen 2001.

Nice car with Pro driver.. Thank you sir

Hi Uncle Khong! I heard that KIA stopped bringing in the Picanto GT Line into Malaysia. Is it true?

Any chance of a test drive of the new 2019/2020 Kia Rio? Now has 6sp auto, 16in wheels, and a few new features. Same 1.4l engine though.

Wow, awesome tip esp driving in the mist. Just wonder, can this same driving method be applied for heavy rains environment ?

Damn... This is scarier than a horror movie...

FIA WRC Group R5 Special Stage ke Uncle ahah

own kx.value pound for pound.harga axia and you hv A segment supermini more or less on par wit its direct competitor vw up aygo etc2

Nice. I wonder how this one do compared to the latest Iriz in terms of stability and control. I really like the design of this GT Line.

I'm looking forward to see Khong driving the new face-lifted mitsubishi mirage hatchback and hear his impressions :)

Did you change the way you film the first person view at the start of the video? It feels weird and disconnected when you're cornering or changing lanes. It feels hard to determine if you are in the middle of your lane or not

really hope there's going to be another run up genting with this car

Also, do u recommend to off the aircond while uphill for small cc engine? This is what most of the rider do....?

Do Kia Optima next

2nd gear goes up to 90 wow

Uncle when is your next trip to Genting. I wish I can *bump* (not literally bumping cars) into you.

I know it’s a lot to ask, but for an enthusiastic drive point of view, which drove better : the saga, iriz or picanto ? Thanks

Sadly we don't have this version in the Philippines. I was planning to buy this car as my 1st car.

Uncle, kalau guna rim 14' mesti lebih senyap & lebih selesa dan kurang bumping, betul tak ?

Uncle,i want to find the good handling car between myvi and picanto, which one is better for right and handling?which one is fun?

Uncle in video talk about the gearbox is mean this picanto the 4 speed gearbox quick response when push down gas pedal?

Wow, what do u think about the ride & handling if compare to Persona & Myvi since the price range are almost identical and if not classified this into segment

Saddd.. not proper genting run.. BUT at least we can learn new knowledge.. If i want to buy new cheap ‘fun to drive car’, is picanto GT line one of it?? Any other car to suggest??

Hello Uncle, can you drive the Almera up Genting and do a review? I'm curious howa 2017 Nissan Almera would perform.

This is real Fun !

Make a video on toyota aqua hill climb n also put a camera on speedo meter for better user viewing experience #yskhang

Nice Seiko 5!!

Hi uncle, im deciding between iriz and picanto, do u remember which car has the sporty handling

Sir, how is this car compared to Myvi 1.5.? Thanks

Hi Sir. How is the drive of the Perodua Axia compared to this?

We can see better in misty or rainy conditions when we wear a Polaroid lens

The fastest kia picanto ever driven by a pro driver....

Uncle , can you add camera on paddle to see the footwork ?

can u do the vw polo 1.6mpi genting run? tq 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Install Throttle Controller, you have better driving experience.

Uncle can I compare to the proton saga which one more stable?😂

Uncle, be gracious lar, u can overtake ppl, ppl can't over take u? Just becos he overtake u, u need not condemn him oh 😂. The way u drive like u own the road oh LMAO. 😂
