- The Toyota Innova is probably one of the toughest 7-seater MPVs that is built to last. For vehicles like the Innova the main objective is to keep it as simple as possible, and as affordable as possible, although the one we tested is the range topper.
It is not so much about the power, but whether there is enough. There must be a reason why the Innova is so popular as a taxi - so we test it on one of the most challenging roads. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Every time I see you driving, I feel very happy.
I'm a big fan of MPVs. This Innova looks decent enough for me. It will definitely be on my list for my future car.
Thanks for showing this, uncle.
Uncle the fastest man climbing genting using innova I think.
one good fun driving a Innova is that you can floor it all day long and you won't get a speed ticket or activate any ESC. Nice video btw.
thanks bro for the update ,just got the same, a week old innova X,no regrets,just as you said the drive experience...opted out of 4x4 cos hardly use that features,been in Sabah/Labuan for the last 30 years and the Innova suspension is the best,still keeping my old avanza and first gen toyota Rush.....very bumpy cars to drive unless carry passengers or goods....
thanks for saying.."you are impressed with this latest Innova"..the X version is not a poor man"s Vellfire or Alphard..is really value for money.
..cheers
4x4 innova?
Thanks a lot Mr Kong, this is the test I need it, my wife is determined to buy this car, but I was worried that it was going to drive like an old man car, your drive test was very refreshing and reassuring!! 🤠😜👍🙏
Errrr... actually in the video, it was driven by an old man, hahaha.
YS, thanks for testing this car! I believe there is enough power indeed....
uncle didn't even struggle handling this tall innova. the difference between a former rally driver and normal driver like us is huge.
good car speaks for itself
Now this is real effort. Thanks uncle for testing every type of cars
Uncle Khong, thanks for the innova genting runs impressions, if any chance You visit indonesia or Thailand, You should try the Diesel variant, really curious about Your impressions on diesel variant, and for the Engine i believe it uses TR Engine that always been on IMV project car CMIIW, while Camry used transverse mount engine usually with AZ or AR Engine, Keep up the great content like always Uncle.
I drove the 2.8 diesel in India. It is really awesome.
Wow i consider You very lucky Uncle, i read somewhere that the 2.8 just recently being discontinued in India, and being replaced by 2.4.
@@creayu32 Yes bro. Power Reduced but Torque is same 360 for AT . Love From India :) . Getting Innova 2.7 dual VVTi in few Days.Very Excited :) better than 2.0
Hello fellow Indonesian, can vouch for the diesel power. I have the 2.4 diesel version of the Innova and have tried the petrol version. The difference is night and day, the diesel version have more torque which makes it more enjoyable to drive.
@@drheinzdoofenshmirtz4926 we dont have 2.7 petrol version available in Indonesia for Innova, Toyota Indonesia reserve that engine for Fortuner SRZ 2.7. I guess it must be very smooth and powerful for daily driving considering Innova weigh less than Fortuner
3.5 minutes of watching.....i m a fan of Khong already....liked and subscribed.
Thank you.
Hi Uncle! Great drive test video as usual! I've had my Innova for about a week, like you said, handling is ok...not bad as this is a higher car and on a ladder frame...a far cry from the Unser and 1st gen Innovas. I find it a bit slow at picking up but at 80 onwards...the car is smooth and very nice to drive around. When all this Covidsh!t is over...I plan to drive up the Pain-Borneo Highway.
My first generation Innova really struggle going up Genting Highland, especially from Awana to hill top.
*Pain-Borneo Hellway, by the way, think twice as the road condition is really horrible
Innova only good in diesel
1.7 tan...wow...berat nie... if 2.5 camry engine fits in this innova... i think boleh pergi laju sket panjat genting nie...😁😁
Well a 2JZ engine fit into it so a 2.5 camry engine is nothing.
I'm very excited every time i see uncle khong driving.
Love the way you handle the Innova X , hats off sir
I LOVE INNOVA❤❤❤❤
You should wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from the bright sunlight on the road
Hahaha, good idea.
Next Hyundai Starex 🙏🏼
i am using 2005 toyota innova ... manual transmission ... its a fantastic car ... going up hill and down hill still requires manual mode even in the latest version of toyota innova ... that makes me feel more happy because my toyota innova is manual transmission ... and its perfect for every kind of terrain
Lovely!
Hey bro, may i ask is the innova manual economical for daily usage?
@@akmalazzim5699 it's 2000cc engine bro ... people don't buy a 2.0 litre engine car for fuel economy ... if you want fuel economy then look for a car with 1.0 litre engine
Sir Khong I’m excited you to drive the gr yaris on your next vid. Stay safe and Drive safe
Would be awesome to be in a taxi ride, driven by Uncle YS. Splendid drive even for a 1.7tonne MPV.
Uncle...u are the best!!!
can layan and attack corner like that, thats a good huge car 👍🏻
Next vellfire uncle.i wanna see how its handle🤣🤣
i went india, phl and indonesia, my company use innova as company car in this 3 countries, i like it very much
uncle,i’m feel so enjoy watch u driving...👍👍👍
Good work Uncle Khong! 🤠Seldom see you driving in middle lane during a car review..haha..
Uncle is a legend lah 😁
Setelah Indent satu bulan..Kamis depan Jemput innova diesel 2021..di auto 2000 amplas medan🙏🙏🙏
Uncle needs to get his hands on a diesel turbo Hiace for Genting run lol
Congratulations for testing the new Innova. With a little bit more stiffer suspension (mine on Titan SP3 high/low, soft/hard) will be more fun🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
In Vietnam it cost RM180,000. The 'kosong' model is widely used as taxis.
People should know this is a mpv, not a sports car...80 to 90 kmh for mpv on hill climb is quite fast for me😂
Test drive toyota Fortuner 2.8 vrz.
innova can do this hardcore driving! wow.
Suprising above average performance.
Next time can you drive toyota alpahard or vilfire v6 or 2.5 drive up to hill?
plenty cvt noises
If your driving video comes with telemetry overlay, it would be awesome!
I agree, but to many keyboard moralists already.
Sadly malaysia ain’t got the india’s diesel option (2.8 diesel, 177hp, 450nm) or atleast indonesia’s diesel (2.4 diesel, 150hp, 350nm).. I believe it has far more speed during hillclimb :’))
Agreed, but diesel engines cost more and the usage here seems to favour the gasiline version.
How would this new Toyota people mover compare to a similarly sized vehicle from say, Kia, which uses a diesel with similar engine displacement. Pricing seems to be around the same ballpark too. Again, an enjoyable jaunt going up the mountain in what many consider a utilitarian people mover. Keep the videos coming! 👍🏽
Wow...terbaik lah bro. Teringin sangat nak beli...
Toyota will always be my favourite brand 👍🏼👍🏼
Hope uncle can review cars, drive until First World Hotel there, since the most slope driving very critical there..
Try driving the Innova with the 2GD FTV engine to Genting. Maybe the engine output is good enough even more by putting it on PWR mode. The 1TR FE engine there in the video is capable just expect the roaring engine like that around from 3,000-5,000 rpm.
Would love to see you test the new ford ranger wildtrak 2.0 biturbo on genting😀
Legendary uncle
Between this and the Mitsubishi Xpander, I would get the Xpander if my purpose is to carry 7 people.Although it is powered by a 1.5L engine,it is adequate as it is much lighter than the Innova..It seat 7 people comfortably and also it drives comfortably too due to the monocoque build vs the ladder frame build of the Innova.Not to mention it is much cheaper!
Yes, each car appeals to a dofferent person in a different way. Yup, the Xpander is a great vehicle too.
Yeah, because Innova is such big car while Xpander is small MPV as both are different segment.
But Innova comes with good power at least while Xpander only 170km/h as top speed, Innova is slightly faster than Xpander as Innova top speed is 180km/h. While Innova comes with 6AT, Xpander comes with 4 AT and Innova carries bigger liter capacity compare to Xpander.
Besides, Innova comes with Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) and come with 6 airbags where Xpander lacks. Even Xpander come with 2 airbags. And also Innova have more space with good comfort for passengers including second row and third row which Innova is quite big car.
But I’m not saying Xpander are not good. At least both Xpander and Innova are good as overall. Even both Xpander and Innova are still affordable but all depends on specs and safety features that attracts to the customers.
Uncle..you might tell the cars maker, bring the diesel option here..this dinasour 1TRFE is underpower and not so fuel saving...
trfe acceptable la. is vvt enjin character need to pedal max
it's not the car. but the man behind the steering
Innova 2.0 ni bawa biasa2 baru nampak penjimatan .untuk family sesuai sangat sebab tu tujuan utama dia dibuat(King of mpv untuk jalan tak rata Malaysia.😜) .innova bukan untuk hi-speed/cornerning/kosmetik .menariknya model ni INNOVAsi kepada mpv yg mesra mukabumi asia tenggara termasuk india .pembinaan teknologi di Indo pemasangan kat Msia bg UMW .xhairan manual book masih tertulis KIJANG .
ahaha always wanted to know how innova would drive if it driven hard lol. the car handles well doesnt even understeer wow :) you cant understeer if you never get to speeds that you will understeer in the first place lol. smart innova hehe
Hahaha. Smart fellow!
sorry uncle the engine is different than the one on the camry😁😁
Yes this engine is actually found in the Crown Comfort Taxi
Similar capacity.
From the engine note....I can tell this uncle is crazy....hahaha.... crazy in a professional way .....
It is a very slow Innova, aw, come on!
Bos tak buat xpender punya test drive naik gentig ke....nk tgk jgak handling Mitsubishi xpender mcm mne goyang dia...
Toyota should bring in diesel model. Eh by the way no roadblock ka uncle YS?
Got.
This MPV uses same chasis as the hilux and fortuner. Not bad handling. I wonder how the diesel would perform though.
👍👍👍
Uncle, I own an Innova too at my home. But, it is a 2012 model and I am so jealous of the current Innova which has so many features and safeties. I wish I can resell my old Innova to the new one 😌
Sure, why not?
@@YSKhongDriving Because the value of my old Innova is not same as I bought it 9 years ago. If the value drops, I will suffer a loss.
Ya. The old model innova depreciated a lot. Just weird, is it old model save fuel or the new model better ?
@@bennyyap61 I think the new one is better because Toyota has improved its fuel consumption.
6at gear
Already in the first minute you see a lorry overtaking a lorry overtaking another lorry 😂🤦♂
Oh god. I think the design team is frm Proton sedans.
Bravo...
Next.... Honda City 1.5L RS with new iMMD drivetrain. Launched a few days ago in Malaysia.
I wish Mr Khong will get his hand on the Indian version of the Innova with the punchier 2.4 diesel and 5 speed manual. He will extract much more fun out of it. Haha.
Doesm't matter. I can drive anything.
Yes Innova is already,next video might be Fortuner
Sir Can u do video about mercedes benz w212 e300 bluetech hybird..Thank u
u sponsor lo
arhhh Ys Khong when u going to test Porsche Taycan
Donno. You have one to lend me? No car, no test.
Next fortuner!! Can we say can’t compare with the fortuner in terms of power train?
I liked all your mounting... they seems solid. Where did u buy it, Mr. Khong?
Made by my friend.
Uncle, too bad you dont have the 2.8 turbodiesel there.
But the 2.0 is quite decent too.
Malaysians generally do not like diesel vehicles as it is generally considered noisy and polluting. Also diesel vehicles are mostly used commercially here. Also since gasoline is cheap in Malaysia, diesel is not a popular choice.
@@alifhashim3752 oh I see, so lucky. Petrol here in PHL is priced high as compared to diesel, and emission standards are just enough in order for old Jeepneys and busses to pass.
@@YSKhongDriving yes, i agree. Used to drive an older generation Innova 2.0 Petrol before passing it over to my sister. When we got now the current gen as replacement, the petrol engine has already been phased out by Toyota PH, in favor of the 2.8 diesel.
@@noelhingco7889 Petrol and diesel are generally about USD 50 cents per liter here in Malaysia, because we are an oil and gas producing nation and these items are subsidized by the government. It has resulted in a lot of smuggling of gas/diesel to Thailand and it is a major issue here in Malaysia. Also Singaporeans drive to Malaysia in a low tank and fill it up in Johor Bahru in Malaysia. So its has led to massive traffice jams heading into Malaysia on weekends from Singapore pre-Covid days.
Its 2.0L is different from camry engine.
uncle,for sheer driving experience, innova or new corolla cross
Cross of course.
@@YSKhongDriving tq uncle
Mantaplah Uncle!!!
Next, fortuner 2.8 2021..
At this price range still no adaptive cruise control hopefully the new BRV will change all that🙏
ACC is not essential on a vehicle like this.
I need a 2nd hand Innova n stay in Genting
Can Uncle Khong test the Nissan Serena as well?
Uncle, wanna get my first car in manual with 20k budget, what car would you recommend?
Get a Satria or a Neo.
@@YSKhongDriving good idea. Thank you uncle.
Nice content, this is an automatic car right with manual mode?
Yes.
Wat do u do to mask underpowered-ness?
Send power to d rear!
:)
Drive slowly.
you should try the diesel version of Innova Crysta atleast thats what they call in India
Not available here. I drove it in India, very good.
this type of car should equipped with Cvt gbox..to eliminate gear hunting during climbing
next nissan juke
Did the radiator temp went up when driving up genting for this vehicle?
Everything was normal.
It's 30 hp short to achieve that 100hp/ton. pity that as the chassis looks able to cope. imagine you can fit the 2.8 D Hilux rouge engine inside that thing.
In the Philippines they use the 2.8D engine, but with less power than Hilux Rouge (only 160/170s hp).
It just need some modifications like remapping the ECU, and it will produce more power.
Uncle test toyota estima pls
Uncle Khong is Ativa faster to reach compare to Innova?
Yes, but Innova can seat 7.
I believe this is your first (recorded) Genting hillclimb in an MPV? If that is a yes, I hope u can try Kia's Grand Carnival, Starex, Estima, Alphard, Vellfire.
Right before viewing this video, I watched your Ativa video. Man, Innova is much quieter than that Ativa. CVT whining is too much in Ativa.
Noted. We will see what we can do.
I did drive the Exora up Bukit Tinggi about 2 years ago.
city part 2？
Stay tuned.
you are not gonna go anywhere uncle... kinda sad when im heard u said "after im gone at least " .......
Next Toyota Fortuner 2.8 pls
how about the fuel consumption...
We did not test fc.
Uncle, no road block ?
Got. Need to show permit or get fined.
@@YSKhongDriving haiya...
Hi YS Khong, can do genting test ah for the Maxus G10 ? haha
Never driven one before.
Next : New toyota wish👌
how is the fuel consumption?
around 9-11km/L...well around the fc of wira and exora
Looks like very slow coz probably saw too many faster cars from ur video
Uncle become taxi driver.. uncle KL to Genting how much ah?
Name your price!
Any chances uncle drive serena c27?
Not sure.
But uncle why in malay they don't have the improve variant with a same engine but less torque than the fortuner yep the 2.4 diesel why cause in indo we have 2 engine
Thwy mever brought the diesel here, I prrsume because the cost is high: I drove the diesel in India and it was fantastic.
@@YSKhongDriving ha you ever go to India ha uncle? Actually the cost in indo with the diesel I think is not that high if you pick the lowest trim ex like the G trim is the lowest in Indonesia but the price is under 400 million rupiah is still around 390 lah
have u tried the innova 2.4L diesel??
Yes, I did, in India.
