Thank you once again for the incredible experience, Uncle YS! Your driving skills are truly impressive. It's likely the only occasion in the car's lifetime that it will be driven with such expertise!
I've been like considering this car since its debut several months back, and really want to know what a pro impression might say about it. One of that pros being is my fave reviewer YS. So really grateful that it's finally here. Thanks!
This is a quiet car, even driving at such speed we can still hear your conversation clearly. Quiet also on the the road as it doesn't shout I'm here, give way to me kind of aggressive car. A quiet dog that can bite.
Great car but the owner looks a bit scared and probably regret by letting Uncle Khong to do a test drive ha... ha... afterall Uncle YS Khong is a damm good driver. I salute. 😊
No regrets here, not a single one!😂 It was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. I had total faith in his driving - but let me tell you, seeing a 1.7-tonne large SUV being pushed to its limits was like watching a ballet dancer do weightlifting. Definitely caught me by surprise!
I sawww you uncle that day while I was on the way down. 🕺You were at the side taking picture of the engine bay 😄😄 I want stop but I don't think it's proper kacau you kerja. But still I was happy lahhh when I saw youuu 🫶🫶
I have been really impressed with the looks of the new Chery cars. Waiting for a reliability report sometime in the near future. Since it's just made available not long ago, it's fair to give it a year minimum.
Good review. Nice interior. Loads of power & tork. How’s d handling compared to d x70? How’s d DCT compared to d x70? Thnx for asking d all important question of fuel consumption! Tiongkok cars r certainly pique-ing my interest!
All the way from South Africa, First time I see such clear proper Test Drive and Review of exactly the car's behaviour on the road. Love it Uncle YS, I'm looking forward to getting the AWD soon.
@@slowsloth8550 I'm from South Africa aswell the Awd version is bad aswell the car losses power sometimes and conering wise its not soo good but better than other cars great performance but from a standstill it doesn't launch very fast a Polo Tsi can actually launch better than me but after dat it picks up with somehow lil bit of jerking
Uncle YS was really careful in his choice of words since the owner himself let him do this test. If it was still on the shitty stock tyres, there would be slightly more horror to the drive (that uncle YS will surely make it arrive safely anyway). I do agree that this Tiggo 8 Pro need AWD to make the 2.0T more controllable (I have tested it myself; the family was scared shit when I floored it briefly, too much understeer). It was in my shortlist, but swiftly struck out after that test drive. Good luck Terry!
When unker started the hill climb and made the 1st right turn @ 11.00, the tires gave way abit. Unker quickly realise and held back. 😅 Maybe Terry need to recalculate his tire choice with lower profile. And Terry have to start with TorquePro and bluetooth OBD.and monitor various dash info like cact, water temp, VE, timing, etc.
This will possibly be the only high speed drive ever for this vehicle, so no need for all those stuff. As a driver, I adapt to the vehicle condition, and drive it as best as I can. We live with what we have - better to see it a half full rather than complain it is half empty.
@@YSKhongDriving I still owe you the pleasure to drive a RX300t. Due to weakening of the Yen, the Japanese vendor decided discontinue certain products until further notice. Hence, I cannot finish with what I started. It is the last thing that has to be done. I update you next year with good news I hope.

Recap by Tammy AI
Power delivery looks awesome but let down by its non-direct, super light steering thereby severely affecting its handling. I'm waiting for Aderen's turn to do his Genting run on this powerful SUV. He skillfully drove the Omoda 5 up the same mountain peak recently despite both SUVs having the same over-assist steering setup.
Compare to my wife's X90 and the video of ys test drive of the x90 earlier, and I strongly feel that the x90 takes corner much better than the tiggo 8 pro!
I think the reason why the handling seems poor even in sport mode is because of the settings. People who buy or test drive this car forget to explore their car settings correctly. There is an option in the settings under drive where you associate your steering to the driving mode you are in...for instance, if you do choose sport mode, the car will become faster but still stay in comfort mode in terms of steering...you have to change the setting to "associated steering" so that whatever mode you choose, the feel of the drive is associated with it....
Steering weight are constantly in sports mode (stiffer) setting for me regardless of driving modes selected. Comfort is too light for my taste considering I switched from a Mazda 3 2.0 BP which has far amazing handling and steering feel. The stiffer steering settings were the bare minimum for me.
I think 99% of this car owners won't drive their cars that crazy. I even think it's a bit abusive driving and Terry may regret his initial decision. A good professional driving though. 😂😂😂
Absolutely no regrets! It was an experience like no other. And hey, if I ever get another new car that Uncle YS hasn't driven, I'd totally let him take the wheel again. But only if I get to call shotgun! 😂
@@daboss. The fact that the car was pushed to overheating meant a lot. It's definitely abusive or even a bit reckless. Anybody should know about the damages overheating will do to any car. I understand this was part of the racing experience but if this was my car I would not do that and therefore I say 99% of the drivers won't do that.
If you stop quickly enough, overheating won't have any long term effects on the car. I think modern cars will be able to handle 5 minutes of overheating.😅
Plenty of power but it needs a well experienced driver when ur speeding & taking corners...AWD makes the differences in term of stability and control...Uncle Khoong definitely could tame this but ordinary drivers facing the risk of losing balance...For me the best AWD will be Subaru all d way...hehehehe
Lol, handling looks all over the place . Besides, that abnormal temperature after a fast drive up Genting. Typical China cars. Sorry will still stick to the tried and trusted brands.
Yeah agree, i tested drive and compare to my X70 AWD. I didn’t feet 390T and handling X70 way better. Also thanks to uncle X70 AWD test drive video that make bought the car.
i literally just pick up mine! its an amazing car to be honest! didnt regret one bit

the toyota 86 or a brz behind u got lost 😂, he cant chase u uncleee❤❤❤
He was one of our friends chilling behind. It is not a race
@@YSKhongDriving我猜测这辆车发动机排量应该是 1.6GT
That's what I been observing throughout the video... The AE86 driver mist have wondering how an SUV can drive up that fast...🤣
what a good family man
Oh wow i have been waiting for this !!!!

Lovely interior.. considering buying this car
Book at shop.yskhongdriving.com
Good skill😁
Looks like a gle450 from far. Gorgeous!
Terry was crying inside😭 so much stress on a regular car
Very nice driving with full experience on this mountain uphills road make the viewer like me feel part of your driving with you ...👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Waiting for the AWD version, hope they bring that in soon.
Is this a AWD version of Cherry Tiggo 8 Pro?
It's the FWD
The 2 passengers at the back pengsan d.. 😂
Hahaha, I thought they enjoyed it.
Look at his (owner's ) face....there goes my car...😢
Betul2, the owner looks scared in the front seat at the corners but the lady at the back seems to enjoy the ride- gazing around like window shopping.
Thanks Terry!
I'm contemplating between BYD Atto 3 vs Chery Tiggro 8 pro >.<
Which should i get ?
tiggo pedal response is the best, still cannot forget my test drive experience until now
The two vehicles are totally different from each other. One is fully electric and one is a turbocharged gasoline engine.
@@YSKhongDriving nice. Which is your favourite uncle ? Also for family Use and city driving mostly ? 😉
Uncle Ys, lets hv a lucky draw for subscribers to hv a chance to sit beside you! 😍😍
A very good idea.
He scare rompak🤭
@@etas1c 😛😛😛
Very Good price with great design and performance
Yes, true
Chery 💪
How do you turn off the bleeping noise on the speed limit
Uncle YS good skill 👍

He skillfully drove the Omoda 5 up the same mountain peak recently despite both SUVs having the same over-assist steering setup.
Well actually he already did that
I don't think it was the steering - I found it ok.
@@hellrock1986ok just viewed it. Fuel consumption was a crazy 3.1 km/liter.
Compare to my wife's X90 and the video of ys test drive of the x90 earlier, and I strongly feel that the x90 takes corner much better than the tiggo 8 pro!
The 250 horses do make a difference: AWD would be better.
Owner soul left him almost 20 minutes luckly he survive..🤣

@@kabelobrian4540 Cheers bro! Thanks!
We switched steering to sports / heavy.
Agree. I think this car needs a 4WD.
Even gt 86 at the back can't catch up hahahaha
He is a friend who came along for the drive .
Uncle ys khong, please do a genting driving for proton S70 before i make false buying.
Same. I will not buy a car without passing Uncle YS Genting test
So this is a pass? A good pass?

Enough power plus enough traction; this ratio is very important
The black VW Ateon behind gave up to over take Uncle Khong😂
I think it’s a gt86
Hahaha you notice...its like watching fast and furious😅😅
yeah he cant gap the tiggo 😂
If this car drove by Uncle, it will overtake tiggo lol…
Uncle used to be a professional race car driver 😂😂😂
Sure can out run cx-5 and CRV
Can get the AWD parts to swap
Breathe Terry breathe!!!
What happened to the temperature,why the gauge turn red?
I drove too hard?
Looking for j7. Awd run
Uncle Ys.. Please test Omoda 5 next. Thank you in advance
Sifu ys... Behind chase u is 86 or supra ??? U are too awesome with just suv car
I think is 86.
the most interesting road test...not your standard yappidy yapper...
Thanks for the support - means a lot to us.
爬云顶是大马车评的必备环节吗?几乎所有的车我过的都要爬一次,哈哈
Ok, im scared just watching this but its got some power.
Test drove it. The cornering torque steer really scary. Don't think the chassis can handle all those hp imo...
Needs AWD for that power
Jaecoo j8 4wd coming
I think Tiggo 8 needs add extra fan cooler for oil gearbox dan engine reduce temperatur..
Off aircon
Owner face is scar in green color. I saw the front view car proceed also feel scar.
uncle not using turn signals to change lanes and the guy is regretting bringing his wife
No cars behind us bro.
His driving is too scary😮
Please do a Omada 5 review too
No car yet
The AE86 behind can’t keep up with the Tiggo
He is my friend along on a chill drive.
Is auto signal?
What is auto signal?
Chery Amoda 5 please for Genting. Thanks boss.

About USD38k
Did he just race ae86 up the mountain
Errr, don't think so.
lol😂 the 86 ir a brz behind u can’t overtake always left behind
Uncle if you had to choose btwn Tiggo 8 Pro & new X1 S20i. Wic once will be better. I saw your review on the IX1.
The Tiggo would be greater value for money.

what about Omoda 5?😃
Haven't had the chance to test as yet

It is very powerful, so if you push it, you need AWD
