- For so long we have been doing Genting Hill Climbs, but today, we are on an ordinary road drive with the Proton X70, 1.5l TGDi - Turbocharged engine.
With less power, many are quite uncertain about the power - so we did an ordinary drive (not that we hade very much choice, since we were on a media drive to Johore Baru and back.
We did a highway fuel consumption test (the video is on this channel), and did quite well; note that actual figures may vary, depending on the driving style and driving conditions).
In this video, we drive along sedately, following the speed limits (to a certain extent), but keeping to our lane since there is two way traffic.
Overall, the 1.5 TGDi performs as expected - there is plenty of power and the driving is fun. Handling is improved somewhat, perhaps from the different weight distribution due to the lighter engine.

What a lovely introduction by doing the "magic kick"
Very thorough and sensible explanation. Thank you so much for such a comprehensive review and pointing out important perks. I guess I'm making my purchase decision after seeing this video.
When Sensei said so, i have no doubt to buy this variant no more
Was waiting for this hmmm might just get one!
What a review , made me almost buying it 🤭
it performs very well even in three-cylinder variant i was very impressed with it
Do highway cruising at 180kmh possible?
@@fenf777 it's very good actually
@@fenf777 easy peasy lemon squeezy
Looking forward for uncle to take it to Genting.
Very impressed with your commentary. I am going to buy this model. Thanks.
Most welcome.
Dah beli?
Mr Khong, can you do video(s) on defensive or safety during driving in various conditions? Your driving during wet conditions tutorial with Toyota C- HR is very good such as braking to transfer weight to the front wheels.
Layan jalan old road or kampung road memang best uncle, at highway so boring and boleh microsleep, cuma jalan lama ni jauh sikit berbanding highway.
Pakai model SUV AWD lagi best like X70 AWD or Subaru tapi CVT gear adehh little bit spoil kalau manual best laa..😁
Hatchback AWD lagi best syok layan conering sambil layan gear up down shift lovely..🥰
If possible, please give us your review of this X70 MC1 1.5T up Genting... It will be interesting...
Mr. Khong, loving your down-to-earth simple layman videos - very easy to understand. I have a question regarding the *steering wheel* mode - the there's two (2) modes, Normal and Sport. Can you please enlightened us on the modes?
In sport mode, they make the steering heavier by reducing the steering assist. At high speed driving, some people do not like too light a steering feel, so they turn on sport mode, which also gives a more aggressive tune to the engine.
Next video. Alza 2022 Genting Climb hill 😁
Uncle YS thanks for the excellent review as always. When will you do for HRV? :)
Soon, I hope
No More genting run? 🙂🙂🙂
jalan ni best... jika jalan mlm sunyi jer..
selalu exit kt pedas linggi..trus ikut jalan tu smpai Simpang Ampat..
Nice..
By the way...do you want to test drive my car a bmw x2 m35i f39?
The power is good, the car can fly wor!
uncle, off your stabiliser on all your gopros. all gopros are static and mounted with no movement. can see the stabiliser kicking in making your video moving left, right, up and down.
If Champ says he couldn't tell if it's a 3-cylinder... I believe him
agreed, theres a veryy significant difference between eco, normal and sports mode. For that 3 cylinder engine im quite amazed. Is this 3 cylinder engine the same as x50 flagship? or x50 premium, standard?
Same as the Premium X50, with TGDi
Can i know what brand is your handphone holder...it is so stable and not vibrating.. looks strong . Not sure it is bcos of the car or the good suction of the holder
It was not shot with a handphone.
@@YSKhongDriving sorry my bad, let me rephrase that question. What brand is the handphone holder on the windscreen?
How is the NVH compare to thr previous 1.8 version? I coukd hear the engine sound from your video, pretty obvious especially when you accelerate to over take thr car. Maybe your mic is too good.
NVH is quite ok. We drove to JB and back, no issues.
After 20 mins of trunk road driving in video, is it safe to say the final fuel consumption on meter panel is accurate (12.9L/100km)? Will the consumption rate going to be worst in city driving?
You have to know when the consumption rate was reset.
@@YSKhongDriving In the beginning it shows 12.8L/100km. Towards the end of the video the FC increased to 12.9L/100km. This means the 'accurate' FC can be worst but not any better right?
Thanks for the video. This video made me NOT wanting to buy this car. I saw an other video about this car where was claimed the FC was 1 liter to 14.5 km which i was very surprised about. Now seeing your FC telling me it did 1 liter to 7.75 km only. Yes i understand everybody has a different driving style and driving conditions but in your test the FC was nearly double from the other claim that difference is to big
Please understand this is very heavy driving up the mountain, and naturally FC will suffer.
@@YSKhongDriving I understand what you are saying but i believe the FC of this car really to be that bad according to your video the i liter to 7.75km was the average FC over a driving distance of 580km so it was not high only because driving up the mountain unless that mountain road you took was 580km long
Any way to me this was a very honest FC review and not one where some one drives slowly slowly to get a better FC result
Again thanks for the upload great job 👍👌
X70 Dual clutch transmission
Takde paddle shifters ke uncle?
Takde! Mungkin for facelift later.
Which engine oil is recmended for Proton X70
Please refer to your user manial.
protect the gearbox ? why? is it sub-standard ? surely 'boxes are designed to handle the power. I did not understand that part. Cost on the road, service costs and intervals ?? Good review.
To prevent abuse of the gearnox, shift shock. All boxes have their own protection mechanisms to prevent damage. They need to idiot-proof their cars.

uncle 1.5t three cylinder proton or 1.5 vtech turbo from honda ?which one uncle choose
Depends on what you want.
@@YSKhongDriving if performance uncle
12.8L/100km for average over 500+km is rather high, perhaps there were a lot of spirited driving before this?
Yes, after the hill climb.
Pengalaman uncle drive awd dengan 2wd mana sedap naik higway
