Uncle is so considerate and polite.....he honks for safety reasons will say thank for giving way to him. I think most people will do that for the opposite reason!
Finally uncle u made a clear difference btw a car and suv.. Lots of ppl out there simply justifying suv is the trend bla bla...no need buy sedans anymore etc.. They have their own pros and cons
YS, I have to applaud u. This car is not even officially launched yet, and yet u already get to review it, and review the power and handling thoroughly. Your connections are really powerful. 😁
I drove the non turbo cx 5 , it's a comfortable family suv . But still having the fun to drive element of Mazda especially the quick gearbox and eager to rev engine. It's a suv you will enjoy driving but it won't be same as sedan due to its height
I like that the manual shift arrangement is more suited for spirited driving, imagine, when you are accelerating, usually you would want to upshift, so pulling down on the stick would feel more natural due to the momentum, the same when decelerating, the momentum of the car makes it more natural to push up on the stick.
Sir, I love watching your videos! I see most of your videos are reviews, do you think you could possibly make some videos about driving techniques? You are an excellent driver, I would love to learn from the sifu himself how to control the pedals especially in corners due to weight transfer. There are very few videos on TH-cam covering FWD driving techniques, maybe you could share your years of experience. Keep it up Uncle 👍
Thanks. I will try to impart knowledge through my videos. Thanks for your support. Every subscription counts, as our sponsors look at how many subs we have as a gauge.
Uncle.. 👍👍👍 Steady man, looks like u just playing game in real driving. I have 30yrs driving experience, but still not as daring as you. Full respect for u uncle 🙏🙏🙏. If I see u in real life, I'll probably will ask u to teach me. 😜. 师父。。😀
Actually only MAZDA did their manual mode correctly because sequential shifters used in rally cars are normally pull down to shift up and push up to shift down.
15:33 thank for the ans.. im also looking for driving comparison between mazda 3 and CX5. for those who confuse what to choose between cx5 or mazda 3, maybe the ans is CX30.
Hi Mr Khong, need your advise. I like powerful car but I want use for long term. Do you think 2.5NA or 2.5Turbo which suitable for me? Is 2.5Turbo engine last longer and easier to take care? Thank you.
YS….planning to buy a cx5…got my eyes in the turbo version but all that power and less agility seems of no use….do you think the NA would be a better choice!
Nice video! But why go up hill must use manual? Can't it be auto? How about auto go up hill? Got the power? Is the auto gear smart enough in going up hill?
Manual mode allows you more control over the gears. In Auto, when you lift off for a corner, the gearbox may shift upwards to a higher gear and when you accelerate it has to hunt for a gear, which may take more time, and response to throttle is affected, although this may be only milliseconds, but it all adds up.
Uncle, your driving is superb. Is the video sped up a little? If not you are driving damn fast. Can you also place a footwell camera so that we can see your pedal movement? Even though its an automatic, it will be nice to see the footwell footage like the one you did for the type-r
If you're used to speed in a straight line this will be totally different angle when you are taking twist and turn,as a passenger is a different sight.
What an excellent driving on a very powerful machine. How I wish I could drive one of this turbo one day. The road is beautiful I wish we could have like this type of highways in the Philippines going to Legazpi it would be awesome to experience driving like the way you're doing. The only thing I can say it's fun driving Mazda cars. The road is wet but you manage to drive it fast and it's fun to watch, you're really my favorite Asian car reviewer .😀 😀 😀 👍 👍 👍 🇵🇭 🇵🇭 🇵🇭
But but... the previous mazda 3 top speed video has the speedometer shown so widely! Why can't we know the speed here then? Really wanted to know at what speed Uncle Khong take those corners.
Wow less than 6 minutes going up Genting, you must be doing an average of 140 km per hour. Great driving. It would be great if you can show the Speedo meter in the next video 😀
Hahaha, you were doing the calculations. Yes, the 2.5 lit turbo is a lot faster than the ordinary CX -5. We don't want to encourage the haters........ So just do what you do, and thanks for your support.
@@lagunabad I dont think it is suitable as he is driving that kind of pace on the road and the haters would use it as an advantage to report him or smtg??
All SUV's will have some body roll. You just drive it a little slower than a road car. Confidentially, I think a change of tyres would do wonders. This SUV can do so much more.
Congrats for being 1st and 2nd,each of you gets a thumbs up. Was waiting for this cx5 review thanks,is the manual gear arrangement is standard?shift back to go 1 gear up?How is the ride handling compared too x70?
Whoa unker! So fast you get to test the CX-5 2.5T. Good job! But I think some of the driver's you encounter, kecut when they see an SUV coming at them from behind so fast.😜😁
@@YSKhongDriving If you floor it pedal hard. You will feel there is switch click feel and your car will drop to low gear and engine high rev. This feature also in many euro cars like BWM and VW. Hope this helps
Uncle YS, not sure if you’ll see this since its been a while since this video was posted..In your professional opinion, what are the cons if any of this 2.5T cx5? Like bobby mentioned brakes..and for this below 200k price range, would this car be the best new car available, or would u suggest something else i could look at? Thanks 🙏🏻
At RM200k, there are many options. You can get some good sedans like the Camry or the Honda Accord. However, if you are looking at SUVs there are quite a few choices at this price range, but the turbo is one of the most powerful in this category. MPV? Look at the Serena. In terms of overall power, capacity, size, the CX is a good choice.
Thanks so much for taking the time to reply 😊🙏🏻 i am actually considering btwn the cx5 2.5t and the camry.. both incomparable as one is a sedan and one an suv 😅
Hi Uncle YS Khong. Always enjoy watching your videos :) I have a question with regards to 2WD vs AWD/4WD SUV. Looks like nowadays, car manufacturers are selling more 2WD variants as compared to AWD/4WD. In your experience would you say AWD/4WD is still a better choice for an SUV?
They are just as good. There is a whole bunch of Japanese engineers in the Kulim plant to ensure quality. I think the boss there is Japanese. The plant is a joint venture between the local distributor and Mazda Japan.
@@YSKhongDriving that's excellent report for Malaysian Auto makers. I used to work for Yazaki Corporation making, electronic modules for Japanese cars specifically Toyota in Melbourne. They've now all shut down auto mfg and only Ford has a design presence here in Australia. Lastly, I think Cx5 was the best selling Mazda for Australia for many years, how about Malaysian Mazdas sales particularly about the cx5 if you are into stats.
Uncle YS Khong. I am considering 2.0 and 2.5 turbo. Wondering if 2.0 is comfortable on highway and good handling? Or do you have other suggestion for Rm150k budget?
If you are a normal driver, and want good economy, go for 2.0. If you want a little more power, go for 2.5. If you are power hungry, the turbo is better. Handling is good throughout the range.
Hi YS, you don't seem to be very enthusiastic about the CX-5 2.5 AWD Turbo. It's quite a powerful car and it comes with AWD which you love. Any particular reasons behind this?
Oh, it was wet, and so I had to be a bit careful. Also my first time driving that car - a tall SUV with a very powerful engine negotiating a slippery road in the wet. It's actually a great car
nice video, may i know what's the average RPM the car is running at? it doesn't seems to shift as much as lower CC and non-turbo skyactiv and the gear shift is faster than non-turbo
The transmission is tuned slightly different, and shift points are lower by a bit. The turbo has high torque so it shifts less. Note that max torque happens around 2000 rpm onwards. The average rpm is between 2000 and 4000 rpm. Most of the time it is around 3000, I think
@@YSKhongDriving I see. Lot of reviewers of diagonal test had shown that Mazda AWD engagement much better once traction control was off. Maybe doing it can provide extra grip. But to off TC in wet doesn't seems smartest thing to do, at least for me..
Uncle, no offense ah. Your way of holding the steering wheel is it correct? I notice that rally drivers and race track drivers hold their steering wheel differently. Correct me if I am wrong. Thanks. :)
Uncle is using the push-pull method instead of hand-over-hand. This push-pull way allows for better grip of the steering. In modern cars, the push-pull is preferred because we now have an airbag in the steering.
Amazing Driving Sir! I'm pretty sure the Fast and Furious Franchise has already called you for their next movie!
