Thanks CheeHau Tan for pointing out about the Steering Lock-to-Lock. When I mentioned lock to lock. I meant ONE full turn from Neutral to Lock. Means TWO turns from One Lock to the other. Thanks for the feedback!
Recently, I have been entangled in buying 2021 330IM SPORT, 2022 c300 or ARTEON R lINE. It seems that Volkswagen ARTEON is very cost-effective. Compared with the other two cars, it has more 4-wheel drive, 700W HARMAN CARTON audio, and horsepower than those two. The car is slightly taller. I was worried about wind noise, but it felt ok after the test drive. The chassis is very solid, and it can be accelerated and pushed back. If there are 2 rear vent holes that look better, don’t fake 2 vent holes. At this price and performance, all Japanese cars are sold. Currently, we are waiting for 2022C300 before deciding which one to buy.
Yep. The drive really gives alot of confidence. So glad that you are shopping around. The other thing to consider is that some people prefer a normal sedan body style versus a coupe 4 door like the Arteon. Good luck with your purchase!
I have this model (in Tumeric) in the UK, but they've dropped the 282ps engine in the recent facelift (which yours is), but apparently pertains in Malaysia. Here there's nothing between the 190ps 2.0 Petrol, and 230ps "R" now. I got a great deal on an ex demo with negligible mileage. I've had much more expensive cars in my life, and chopped in my very special 7.5 R as I've just retired and want something more soothing. I've never been more pleased with a car. Roomier than my Jag XFs (I've had 2) and rides better than my Velar 3.0 HSE. Gets loads of attention in this colour too. Facelift has better interior, but I prefer the manual heater controls of mine. As rare as rocking horse shit in the UK. 99% of folk have no idea what it is. 320i and C200s are absolutely everywhere.
Hm.. soundproofing is surprisingly good. Even with frameless doors. Haven’t sat in a Camry for a long time but i can say not as quiet as a 330i but it’s close. But it’s quiet and comfortable enough for sure.
Hey Thomas, curious question, when keen drivers like yourself give comments on cars not being fun, like the arteon in this case, do you guys mean you guys want the cars rear to swing out ever so slightly when driving fast at corners, somewhat like a mini controllable drifting motion? Actually wouldn’t this be counter intuitive since if that’s the case, technically it feels more dangerous to drive, and you won’t dare to speed as much, which would kinda mean it’s not as exciting ? Or am I getting this all wrong. I’m of the opinion like if a car is more stable at corners like the arteon having a 4wd, you can take corners faster (not sure if this is true as well, assuming so because it’s more planted being a 4wd as compared to the rwd in a 330i) and wouldn’t that be spirited in a way as well ?
Thomas, great video. Can you settle my doubt once and for all. I used to drove gti mk6 and the gearbox gave me many problems. Is the gearbox of Arteon or for that matter, all the new VW such as the Tiguan any different?
Thanks Vincent. Well I used to own a 2018 tiguan for a while. All is good. IMO The key to a healthy gearbox is to treat it like a manual. Especially in traffic creeping forward inch by inch kills the clutch and cause extra friction (extra heat and all the problems associated with it). But so far my experience with the wet clutch are good. :)
I'm surprised that you face gearbox issue. Yours GTI means use Wet Clutch DSG. All the while I thought only dry Clutch DSG is problematic, even wet clutch???
I own the legendary MK5 GTI with the DSG 6 speed wet clutch and I have it since 2007 ( 15 Years ). I have only changed DSG fluid 3 times from day 1 and it has 180K km in mileage today.
That was a great review Thomas! But one thing u did not mention was the haptic controls on the steering wheel. Many have already complain about this with the MK8 GTI. Did u have the same problem?
Thanks for the review. Its refreshing to hear it from your perspective. Well, this Arteon is on my wish list apart from S60 and G20. Perhaps stage 1 tuning should be enough for this car to play around 😁😁
Thanks glad you enjoyed the review! :) yeah I was mighty impressed by the S60 too - probably the best in a daily drive in this category (in my opinion). But lacking the fun element.
@@ThomasYap for daily drive, and straight line, S60 is a no brainer. Tested it before, the torque is awesome but then handling left more to desire. I think Arteon shine more on that , same goes to G20. If budget permissible, I might eyeing c43 nor 340i 🤣🤣
@@ashraffendy2010 Hahaha. Yep! and S60 is great for car enthusiasts who have already the fun cars. In fact I've done a review early this year. Took it up Genting and found it... lacklustre. hahah. But everything else is overly impressive. th-cam.com/video/KUQkgqGGvIw/w-d-xo.html
Haha DSG known for lightning quick gearshifts but ... Hold on a second, I just zoomed in the dashboard cluster and the car was running 400 over km. Maybe after the the 1 thousand mile break-in period, it will improve. Usually test cars prior to this have already covered at least 1.5k to 2k km. So yaa maybe I'm right 🤣
@@ThomasYap Yes. Basically the brakes, suspension, engine and gearbox will reach the peak performance after run-in so as fuel consumption (peak efficiency after break-in). Anyway cool to see a very new car to be tested. Looks fresh
@@ThomasYap This test car, I am very sure the 1st person to get the hands on it is the Legend Ys Khong. Followed by Aurizn members and currently WapCar @ Adrian.
Well one thing I'm not that clear. The C300 & 330i have higher performance figures (especially torque). You said Arteon trumps them in terms of power delivery. In what sense? Is the Arteon power delivery so smooth and linear or lively and robust, comparative to the compact executive sedan rivals?
More smooth and linear. Sometimes spec sheets numbers shows up differently in the real world. BMW feels very linear and progressive too, but in the end I felt the arteon’s power delivery is marginally better.
@@ThomasYap Well I did read a review article which kinda surprised me. It seems that the throttle response of the car in Comfort mode was muted and no sense of immediacy compared to pre FL (which had lower power engine). Since you drove it, how did you feel? Was the response direct and immediate? I believe you hold more credibility haha since you're a keen driver.
@@royalprince5878 i like the tuning of the drive settings. Comfort is actually not bad. Don’t feel the immediacy like sport but Enough to do an overtake without causing unreasonable jerkiness. But of course if you want the responsiveness a change to sport will make it urgent. Neck snapping… I think it’s hard to say either of these 3 cars are neck snapping. Haha.
@@ThomasYap Alright fair comment. I can take your words 🙂🙂. In terms of responsiveness, Arteon still can't surpass you 😂😂😂 Instant reply to comment. Great. I'll support this channel
Yeah the arteon is a very competent choice. Would say more competent than fun. Where the 330i is more fun. But as an all rounder and the ease of drive. This is just for me la, the fun part is fulfilled by other cars in garage so I’ll be ok with it. Haha
@@ThomasYap Agreed, the Arteon seems like a potent machine, basically a more grown up, mature Golf R Mk7 (that has put on some weight), perfect as a all-rounder machine. Best value for money in the premium compact Exec category! But the 330i has more drama and flair to it.. Also, the interior, the key and the brand of BMW (not to mention the resale value) make it more appealing to some people like me. :)

@@ThomasYap But 1 full lock is impressive to be honest. So easy to do turns in city or in high speed suddenly an idiot breaks hard in front or potong line dangerously. At least can instantly move around. Safety
Here is a suggestion to VW malysia gm. Bring the price down to 180k .Slap in the 1.4 tsi engine,change to analogue speedometer,remove wireless carplay,change headlining to white,remove massage seat,remove 360 camera,remove 4 motion .And volla u can bring down maybe to 150k,make it a poor mans car. :D .Point is that,is the equipments that make the price go up

Go for Arteon. It's comfort levels are miles ahead of all the cars you mentioned
which one did you buy? im also considering between these 3 cars
So 330i better or arteon?
Great and honest review with good comparision. Keep up doing more review. Something for me to consider on buying this car now.
Cheers man. Take it for a test drive man. I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
I have this model (in Tumeric) in the UK, but they've dropped the 282ps engine in the recent facelift (which yours is), but apparently pertains in Malaysia. Here there's nothing between the 190ps 2.0 Petrol, and 230ps "R" now. I got a great deal on an ex demo with negligible mileage. I've had much more expensive cars in my life, and chopped in my very special 7.5 R as I've just retired and want something more soothing. I've never been more pleased with a car.

Nice! Thanks for sharing your ownership experience. Yeah I do think the arteon really offers a good competition to the C Class and 3 series.
Well is the ride comfort as comfy as Camry? How about NVH (soundproofing) which Camry is good in? I believe Arteon should be on par.
Hm.. soundproofing is surprisingly good. Even with frameless doors. Haven’t sat in a Camry for a long time but i can say not as quiet as a 330i but it’s close.
But it’s quiet and comfortable enough for sure.
