- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มี.ค. 2023
- Many thanks to UnitedStar Corporation, our friendly Toyota dealer from Aman Suria who kindly let us have their demo car to check out on our favorite hill climb.
We already did a run up Gunung Raya in Langkawi, but as usual many of our viewers expressed a wish to see how the all-new Vios would perform up Genting.
This it panned out that we collected a brand-spanking new Vios G spec from UnitedStar Corporation amd we had Little Min as our guest in the car. He shares some of his views too on the car.
Please watch the video in full - the first part tells a little a about the car and we also did a bit of slow driving to check out the noise level.
All things said and done, the all-new Vios is a big improvement over its predecessor .

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!
Good idea.
You know things get serious when LittleMin reaches for the grab handle 🤭
Hahaha, I saw that too.
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!
Yes they actually did.
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! 😎
Thank you for your support.
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 😂
A fine gentleman's top tier 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.
there's a vios in between ford and altis btw
@@TheYoukhang , I didn't mention the Red Vios because I think it is a friendly car. 0:45
I Hope the altis owner watch this episode
I would do the same too just to see how my Vios performs with the new one 😂
Summary: It's not about the car, is the driver!
Love the look of the next gen Vios 😍. Can't wait for it to be available here in the Philippines
Uncle Ys . awak memang padu lah .. patut lah champion rally banyak kali .. Love you Lagend !
Wow, as predicted if the car is able to handle Langkawi I am sure it'll be able to tackle Genting. This is superb! Good summary on the car.🎉
Thank you Harvard!
Yup. Engine more power than city😂😂😂
its all about driver controlling the car ... awesome
always a feel good content uncle! hope that new generation reaches the philippine market. safe drive.
Thank you for supporting our channel.
請問這是在那個國家呢？謝謝🙏！
this is the 1st test drive review for 2023 vios, Uncle was fast.
smooth n comfort handling by vios, premium style
taking my 2006 Vios up the mountain tomorrow.. always exciting to watch ur videos leading up to my trip
Be careful, be safe.
Aiya Mr Khong you make all the cars look great with your driving skills 😂. Anyway, great review as always 👍🏻
Glad you like them!
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.
Mannnn, i would like to experience once being the passenger while our champ YS Khong drive up Genting!
I don’t dare 😂
@@macc2374 That’s your problem
Uncle ur driving skill is suprb as master in phd
Nice hill test!
I really miss uncle driving manual car... Wanna see that footwork again lol.
I love how it sounded on accelerations . 👍🥰
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.
The passenger was okay, I think, hahaha. I am a bad passenger myself.
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
But at least more comfortable than previous generation Vios. This new Vios also have many features and better safety features than previous gen Vios
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.
Yes, sorry if I called it wrong. I know it is Gunung Raya.
I have been waiting and it is here. I mean the video of Vios
Thank you for being patient. Must thank Unitedstar for the loan of the car.
You r always great in your driving uncle..
Thanks a ton
No it's not the car ...it's the driver's skill that is good!
A good build helps a lot.
Uncle YS prove to us that no safety feature can stop him 🤣
this young man has confidence in uncle's driving skill. he didnt hold the grip haha
That’s something new
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.
Great driving skills uncle. You manage to handle the car very well.
Thank you 👍
Have to add up Tuurbooo...lil bit
Xiao Min was like 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 all the way and 🤤😛 like these too😂😂😂😂
Bro littlemin akhirnya mampu tersenyum di corner yang terakhir😂
he talk true, every car when accelerate, engine noise come out. is normal every car. except maybe the hight end car just like royal royce
Exactly. Thank you.
The most interesting episode 🎉🎉🎉
Yes, agreed.
uncle, i am amaze this car handling so well
Rear view cam nice, can see everybody eat dust!! lol
You are a legend Sir/uncle
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 would buy one. I would buy many cars that I have tested. The key is always 'do I need one, or can I afford it, and will my wife let me.'
Watching from philippines
Need your thoughts on no spare tire - 1) tires can't be be used after
using sealant provided ie need to get new tire later
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.
The engine sound alot like myvi now but less whiney. Great driving as always sir!
Myvi 1.5 & this Vios having the same engine 2NR-VE & same D-CVT type.
Thanks 👍
It use asashi kikai gearbox or aisin gearbox ?
signal too.
Because vios has more sound insulation. Basically the same powertrain now
Power uncle ys drive new vios❤
Beautiful car...
It sure is!
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.
Best steering feel? All very close, and all are okay.
Woahhh big smile ya uncle.. 😀
Yes, enjoyed the car greatly.
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.
Press until the sign in the meter goes off
The Ford Ranger in front , said what another Vois at my tail ?
Love to know your overall thoughts on this, Uncle
I think the handling is very good compared to the older one.
Mountain of the day.
100k car is not affordable. But I can see this new vios is lot nicer then the previous model. Can't wait to get my on next month❤
Good choice!
nicely done. boleh test Merc A200 sedan ka? btw love the submariner!
Thank you. If I can get the car, will do.
Dear, can you set the speed higher than 125 km
funny seeing the altis trying to catch to uncle ys HAHAHA. you mmg legend driver uncle YS
Hahaha. He was a bit upset, it seemed to me
@@YSKhongDriving HAHAH most probably. But if I met you driving like this, I feel will definitely feel honoured
Awesome driving , any chance you may have one for Toyota Noah 1.8 2018 on Genting highway?
The Noah? I don't think anyone I know has one, let alone anyone who will let me try it.
@@YSKhongDriving no worries :) good content , I had followed you. Look forward to see more driving videos :)
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 memang steady bawak kereta 💪 but scary jugak la so fast🤣🤣
It's about training, a good feel for the car, and skill.
I see so many netizens insulting this new vios like they are expert… little do they know
because it is designed by Daihatsu. with a Toyota price
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
One day I hope that I can seat at Kan Cheong place. Really enjoy your driving style sir.
You should!
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.
No, it's not like that at all. Go tp /www.howthingswork.com
awsome uphill skill ，if compare with gr vios which better？
This new platform handles very well.
if G this this good; hopefully there is GRS soon
damn I wish I have the same guts and skill to drive that fast in that kind of terrain.
Sir do you think the new Hyundai Elantra N would be sell in Malaysia ?
As far as I know, the Elantra is available for sale.
Most probably we won't get the Elantra N, only i30 n
that red vios driver is pretty good
Yes.
@@YSKhongDriving but not as good as our legendary uncle 😂
Great engine
no , the horsepower is too low…same engine as myvi 😅engine noise is too loud
But at least more improvement in terms of top speed and acceleration compare to previous generation Vios
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
I thought all Vios TC Traction Control is auto on whenever u reach a certain speed. Normal for all prior Vios.
Nope, previous model can be switched off. The driver of the red Vios confirmed with me after the drive.
Even press and hold more than 5 seconds also will turn on again? In Hilux, when I press and hold more than 5 seconds the traction control off show in the MID and VSC off logo also light up. Maybe you can try press and hold around 5 seconds and check the TRC will turn on again or not.
Which 2 car do you feel more comfortable on city or vios going up genting?
The City had a bit more power, and the Vios felt more planted.
Mine is coming soon on July uncle 🤟🏻
Excellent!
mine is next month bro 😂. booked since january
Most elegance 1.5na car on market now. Malaysia market. Syg enjin x improve.
Yeahhh
Someone not happy. 😂
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
@@YSKhongDriving Thank you for sharing your experience insight. Always a joy to learn new things about car.
Uncle is like driving initial d arcade game 😂😂
The new vios's face looks exactly like your passenger
Yes, so handsome!
Hahaha, I know what you mean😂😂😂
Now that u drove all 3 (nissan almera, honda city (non-hev) and now vios) which of these 3 gives u more joy?
Each of them has its own character. The Almera for its torque, the Vios for its handling and the City for its fuel economy.
Hi uncle YS, can I know handling wise is this better than City?
They are very close when push gets to shove, and the new Vios has a slight edge due to the new platform construction.
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.😮
小苠🥹 不要紧张 哈哈哈哈 13:00
This new vios handles well compared to s70 and Honda city. New Mazda 2 and vios at the top in terms of ride and handling.
Uncle, for this new vios compare with Almera 2020, which 1 you prefer?
I would take the Vios.
Omg, i saw u video with almera look better almera.. i'm confuse to take which one better.. @@YSKhongDriving
Hi uncle ys, how does this Vios perform against Vios GR S? 😅
This one handles much better
@@YSKhongDriving thank you uncle ys
yaris vs this new vios
handling wish better?
This new platform is more rigid, so is better.
Hi sir! Just curious what are your thought on vios 2023 vs the city facelift? Does the new vios measure up against the honda city or surpass it in terms of performance?
In terms of handling, the Vios is ahead. Power is a little less but they have lightened the Vios by quite a bit so it has a bit more get up and go. Overall I would say the two cars are quite evenly matched, so it comes down to brand preference.
I've heard a few reviewers complain regarding the quality of the steering wheel/front display and noise of the engine when driving compared to the older gen vios and the city 2023 face-lift. What are your thoughts personally?
@@giridhranpalani3139under warranty. Can claim.
小明好久不见
No one talks about why the headunit stays at the CAUTION screen like forever?
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.
@@YSKhongDrivingbut does that mean we would need to press/touch the interface everytime we startup the car to "cancel" that caution screen?
@@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.
Hi Uncle, please help me. where I need to choose between Honda City Rs & Vios G
Are you going to buy through our channel?
bro looks so worried and anxious 😂😂😂
The vios in the back was abang ys junior haha 😂
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.
how many km on the car? it is not good to push the engine so hard if it has not reached the second oil change, or around 20k km
Engine waa very tight.
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
Hahaha.
@@YSKhongDriving nice driving skill for real
Does it handle better than the new city ?
We did not do a side by side, but it does handle well
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!!
@@adrianchenyijie8121 im in the same dilemma as you. but now have removed x50 from my list and comparing vios with city. have u decided yours?
@@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.
Wonder , if sport mode and more aggressive. How much the fuel consumption is actually?
Not a lot.
uncle，I can see your guest’s face turn green Color 😂
No lah, he was cool
Hi..when you going to host a meet and greet again Mr YS Khong. I miss the time you were in Penang.
I am away at the moment. Yes, we should do it again.
@@YSKhongDriving when will you be in penang again?
Uhh... I heard Perodua’s signal sound in the Vios😂 They don’t even change the sound
You can change the signal sound now even most perodua high spec cars can change have 4 signal sound choice if you embarrassed too much
Toyota=Premium Perodua 😂
that's fine
My man thought toyota rebadged perodua car 😅
