Proton Saga 2019 [Genting Hill Climb] - It's Hot But Does It Have Enough Power? | YS Khong Driving 

this uncle delivers toufu during his young days

Aku dah test bawak naik genting sampai puncak. 4 org dewasa 2 budak kecil. Mendaki agak meyakinkan walaupun perlu tekan padel minyak lebih menggunakan Mod gear SPORT. Bila turun perlu berhati hati sikit sebab gear mod sport tak boleh turun ke gear rendah ikut kehendak kita so sistem brake baru yang besar banyak membantu. Handling tak payah cerita memang best. Penggunaan minyak juga agak jimat. Overall memuaskan untuk cc 1.3 ni. Terbaik proton.

A true racing driver, not even a single moment when he misjudged the roads. Truly an otai, love to see more videos like this!

When YS KHONG taking corner, those tayar reaction : Bridestone/Michelin/Continental :"Good job ,keep going i can handle it" Hankook/Dunlop:"hmmm,u should drive safety bro" Sliverstone :"AaaaaAAaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!"

Proton Company should use this video as their advertisement strategy!!! Super dope, and i like it!!

If this car is this much fun to drive, imagine if it has a 5 speed manual or 5 speed auto with pedal shift. Goes to show that the guys who tuned this chassis really know what they're doing.

In the hands of an expert even a budget A segment car can turn up the fun. Superb👍

Sir. Your professional driving skils made us saga drivers all proud. Good Job!

Uncle, your driving skills are superb... thank you for making this video...As far as I am aware of, not many reviewer will make this kind of test for entry level car, like this saga especially.... excellent uncle.. please, teach me how to drive like this...hahahha

Civic driver: "Nanii!! is that the ghost of genting road??! I MUST BE DREAMING!

Greetings from Singapore. Did a Genting & Cameron run with friends in my Accord CL7 last week. Love the way you push the cars at Wide open throttle / Traction limits / take the racing line. That's the most meaningful way to review a car! Keep these videos coming!

The way the uncle handles the car at ease while driving uphill and even downhill. Totally a rally legend behind the wheels! You've got a new subscriber uncle!

When Takumi grown older he started review car up hill

Top Gear top tip: This is a prime example where a Pedal Shifter would be advantageous. 99% of other driving scenarios wouldn't need a pedal shifter, even if it means bringing the car up to 160kph.

I am from Pakistan become big fan of your driving. In Sha Allah book soon this saga ace

not even once his hands crossed when driving..this is true experience and professionalism cayala uncle ...and yes , I will take your advise and not drive the car like that..hehe

aduh uncle.sye xpndai nk text english tpi nak balas jgk,UNCLE MMG OTAI LEGEND,TERBAIK!!!!!!,💪💪💪

Uncle Khong is always making other road users who think they are fast reflect on their ego as he passes them. Hahahaa. Uncle Khong's driving is crazy fast in a good way. Excellent driving, Uncle!

Feels scary to watch cuz we all don't want a car reviewer to get into any injuries or what not during a car evaluation, but at the same time feeling so impressed at how you're handling the car.

my attention going from the review to your driving skills😂 uncle is real OG for his driving skill, 90-120kmph uphill with bunch of corners *WOW*

The dislike probably from the civic owner😂😂 6:10

Just got my saga 1.3 premium a week ago and after seeing this video I just realise that I haven't use the full potential on my saga yet.. Great driving. Such precise skills can only be obtained by years of experience. Definitely gonna tell ma friends to watch this channel.

Have not seen such great review for quite a while! He definitely Knows the limit of the car and had given more than enough technically sound information and very fair comments about the car

Watching Mr. Khong driving is not only watching a normal car test, it's like being the cameraman recording a rally racing within the car

Bought my saga after watching this video! Thanks for the review!

While waiting for my loan to be approve, just scrolls some you tube reviews about saga 2019, wow uncle walao! Go uncle!

Even though can hear engine noise loud but still can your voice clear I must say the cabin sound are good.

Wattt. Uphill 100-120km goodjob uncle! Cornering at 70-90km ?? Uncle u are otai thats it!!👍

Always entertaining. Well spoken English and also fair amount of advise. I like how you elaborate your experience with the new Saga.

With better tyres, some chassis stiffening beams...this saga definitely rocks

The choose is on you. If you want an economic car. Go for bezza. If you want a perfomance car. Go for saga. Because they use different type of engine, handling, system.

After 9 years still love my saga hps handling lah, steady shj.

What kind of sorcery is this? 😲 Uncle Khong, you are the gold standard for man and machine definition!

Wow uncle, your driving skill is soo excellent. Even just by watching this video already make my heartbeat increase. Cant imagine if i can sit beside you during this driving session, surely my adrenaline will at the highest peak 😊😊👍

Very nice for us in Pakistan, as Proton and Saga are coming to Pakistan soon.

Big clap for the driving skill. Felt like a supercar in this saga

I like the way you test this car and the way you explain how to achieve optimal acceleration with this meagre-powered car on these steep roads. Too many people buy cars with small horsepower ratings and expect their cars' throttle & gearshift responses to be as similar as those with 150hp or above.

Hahahahahah uncle I just watched your video driving Bezza up the hill and noticed that you were very serious while driving Bezza 👀 BUT I saw the joy in your face while driving Saga. I was watching both videos at the same volume and realized that Bezza's video was very noisy whereas the Saga's video was so satisfying to hear 🤣 Maybe fuel consumption and safety feature wise, Bezza deserves the top spot but overall I would still choose Saga even if it's not using Toyota Engine. PROTON SAGA mantap 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Cant imagine if im in the car with u..kecut telur! Haha! No doubt you are 5x rally champion..👍🏻

It's so much fun watching pro test drive

Signboard says "AWAS, kurangkan laju!" Proceeds to drive 120kmh. Signboard be like: AM I A JOKE TO YOU? 😂

Kedai kopi talking style,the stig driving skills.. Nice uncle

Fantastic experience with iconic Saga 🇲🇾👍🏼

Wow.. the engine sounds really good.. n I love the way u drive uncle.. 👏👏👏 coz I love to drive like that.. 😁😁😁

thank you uncle, after watching how you tackle the corners, i immediately bought the jet gray saga :D

Omg, uncle, u drive so well..so pro, i felt myself a passenger almost got heart attack!!!this test is wat i wanna know!thank u so much for this video. I went n checked my heart rate.

Just with this 1.3 engine car,this car can speeding like 1.6 engine car.What the marvellous new Proton car!👏👏👏

For me, at this point of driving skill.. for this underpower car.. i will just change the extractors for smooth response on acceleration to reduce my blood pressure. Thats it and its good to go.

hearing tyre scratching everywhere, I knew you! uncle driving quite fast compare to the other 'normal' people. Of cos! because gong gong / lao ye is a rally champion :D

The engine car sounded like the sport car.. nice one saga 2019😄👍

no one can drive like you Mr. Khong....thumbs up!!!

Its so fun to watch you driving sir. its like watching a real rally race

Wow...Hati kering laa uncle nie. I pun tak seberani cam nie bila turun gunung...

If one day i happen to overtake a car and seeing uncle ys khong whose driving the car,i might be let him overtake me back. Hahaha. Nice review uncle. Im getting one soon.

And this is how you should behave on public roads. Respectful of other road users, being calm and patient. Don’t just learn uncle’s skills, learn his courteousness as well.

bila legend beraksi.. saya pun tak berani drive begitu naik genting🤣

Fantastic and superb driving uncle.. That why I choose saga 2019 as my first car..

unker really power la... 120 km/h going down genting in a car with a skinny economy tyre.. respect

pakcik!!! woiiiiii!! i know you’re good and professional driver. but this car is small makes me risau a lot! i got scared by only watching you in video. stay safe and keep healthy uncle! wishing you the best!

Golden salute to uncle Khong.. Ur the best uncle.. Big fan of urs frm Seremban.. Haliou boliao kamsiah

Based on your footage, the overall balance of the 2019 Proton Saga seems to be progressive understeer, a very safe and easily controllable setup. This car can easily be made to handle better by swapping the terrible 185/55/15 Silverstone tyres for a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE03 195/50/15 tyres. It seems that this car is basically a softer version of what my Proton Gen 2 CPS is in terms of overall handling, with relatively similar overall handling balance to my car but softer and more comfort biased. I've installed a 3 point front strut brace and a 19mm rear antiroll bar and instead of ending up with heavy but easily recoverable understeer at the limit of grip it now stays close to neutral until the limit of grip, giving up with minor oversteer that's easily recoverable with minor counter steering and minor throttle lift. The OEM setup can be recovered from at the limit understeer with just a throttle lift to tuck the nose back in line and straightening the steering a bit, no real counter steering required if your inputs aren't too jerky. In short, if you're just an ordinary driver who desires comfortable ride and safe handling the OEM setup is perfectly fine, but for those who want a more neutral handling car, a suitable rear antiroll bar does wonders.

this is proton saga, give him a proper premium sport car on the same road, cant imagine how cool the video will be :D !

nice thanks Mr.Khong i feel it is more silence than persona 2019 , more silance than Honda city

you are my favourite vlogger now mr Khong . Saya doakan awak sihat selalu.

Actually it doesn't matter what kind of car it is or vehicle...it all depends on the driver. In the end it all comes down to whether you like the car or dont like the car regardless of what is is equipped.

What a driving skill and very good control. Awesome. You can promote Proton brand and its stability advantage very well

Watching this from Kenya with my proton saga Sport which is 3 weeks old ❤❤

9:40 Good to know it can go 120 above on sport mode. I was worried if the 3rd gear will limit it up to 100 kmj only. Great driving uncle, you really pushed the car hard yet maintain it in good control

This is what I call utilizing the full potential of the car! Great driving as always. By the way, does the AT transmission in (S)port mode provide adequate engine breaking during downhill?

That some mad driving skills u got there uncle, i'm still waiting my car arrive 4 the next week, this video are very helpful for me, TQ. 😇😇😇

hachiroku in the making..heheh. if saga av 1.6 like b4 with vvt engine and with 5speed.. wowwww. thanks Uncle YS. for test uphill

Datsun 120Y @12:24 still can climb Genting, wuyoh. By the way, uncle is quite utilise this new saga's performance and also in safety way, because I can feel steady when I imagine sit at the passenger seat.

Drifter uncle from Malaysia haha . Nice review though👍 hats off.. ordered A new saga

I love this review. Great review from the rally otai!

Im impressed with this uncle! Drive like a racer

The reason I'm still loyal to proton is because it will make you feel the car using tayar tebal. that is why proton car are still comfortable even at rough road compare to other local & japan brand. because the suspension setup in proton is not only for cornering, but to run smoothly even on rough road. which you only can get at continental brand such as bmw. but saga is stupidly affordable when you compare it to bmw price.

sebab atok drive SAGA ini macam, saya terus order. nex wek dapat kereta

this is what we call professional driver

Hajat nak beli axia style tp lepas tengo handling saga baru ni terpikat pla..smooth je..axia naik bukit bising sgt maybe 3 silinder kot x sesuai untuk perjalanan mcm ni..plus 1.3cc pla tu berbaloi sgt..proton terbaik👍

Rasa mau terkencing tgk ini uncle drive down hill 😂😂

WOWWWWA Im climbing everyday KL-Genting for the past 4months and your driving skills... really killing me off ahahahahahah salute and respect to your driving skills.... 9:10 was my workplace before ahhahaha NEW SUBSCRIBER here

To Proton Engineers or whom it may concern, it you one of those read this. Request YS Khong to test the handling of the prototype car first before officially launch the new car or new version. I know there are other tester in your department but from all videos that we viewers saw, believe YS khong will give constructive feedback regarding gearbox,engine,handling, what need to add and improve,praticallity and ect. so that Proton at least same par with other manufacturer. Thank you.

Cara pemanduan uncle pun nmpk yang uncle ni terlatih..cara peggang dan kendali stering pun betul..tolak dan tarik stering..uncle memang otai

i like this one. this is the most entertaining review/test drive on the saga.

Proton ride n handling superb than other car.

boleh bergetar aku dalam kereta ni tengok cara dia drive, aku dah la agak fobia dgn pembahagi jalan tu🤣

Dear YS Khong, watching this is more fun than playing Daytona in expert mode. Please teach me how to race 😄

Enjoyed watching Mr Khong maneuvering the corners !!!

Thanks for the video sir. Enjoyed watching! Nicely done. As for the 4 speed gearbox I presume it’s the same one in the Kia Rio and some Hyundai models. They have the tiptronic function. Good if Proton includes it in future as it’s a useful feature.

Now these what we called a car review. Well done sir.

please do not compare between...... that's the spot on point every new car buyer should remember keep it up 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 be proud you own a car where the aircond is among the best in its class

You are the championnn uncle.. tgk video pun dah kecut perut.. terbaikkk...

Thanks God we have a professional driver tester here!

Sy rasa uncle bawak saga nie lagi laju naik genting berbanding persona 2019. Mybe sbb gearbox 4at lebih sedap berbanding cvt ya uncle?.

nice review unker YS. reminds me of all those genting drives we did all those years ago.

I watch your video more then 5time already😂..i like how u push the saga to the max limits...

13:53 the thumbs up is basically all you need to know about this car from YSK 😁

Fun! this Proton Sage really got power!

Thank you for the review uncle. I just bought this car and I'm enjoying it!

Uncle YS Khong for president! haha love this kind of review :)
