2019 Perodua Axia Style (Pt.2) - My First Ever, 1.0L Drive Up to Genting! How Good is It?

Just how will a 1.0 litre NA engine perform up Genting? This is possibly the first time ever that I have tackled this mountain with a small engined car. Will it be able to do it, or will it just refuse to go on?
*Note: Some videos may have been sped up and some footage are superimposed for "dramatic effect" in our channel.

@@wonglk6262 … if budget wasnt an big deal… get the Myvi… u Just cant go wrong with an Myvi… reliable, good FC, decent handling ( depends on individual ), top notch safety ( the AV variant ), practical, cheaper spare parts in long run and last but not least, good after sales service too… even the 1.3G also has AEB and stuff… no other rivals can match it for under rm50k for the Myvi 1.3G with Perodua Smart Drive Assist

Hi Uncle! Finally a review for Axia, I had mine for almost 5 years from now! The steering was better than my home's Alza! It's not powerful but I drove a few times to genting still!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Great! And yes, the steering is quite good, as I mentioned.

You smiled and chuckled all throughout the vid. This must've been the best drive 😁, Teriyaki Boys - Tokyo Drift playing in my head as I watched this.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha - we had plenty of time - it takes longer to get through each corner, and from corner to corner. But yes, the car can be fun. Folks, remember this is an entry-level car, and you really don't need to drive it like this - we just did it to see just what it can do - please do not do this on your own.

[@xanthuschew8715]

uncle YS enjoying overtaking faster cars with a slow car 🤣🤣🤣 i feel you too uncle coz i have one axia at home too 😂😂😂

[@NavarroOne]

I like driving a slow car fast. I am also impressed that Perodua has a stripped down version at about 24k OTR but still comes with 2 airbags. Great safety alternative to a motorcycle for a family. And the equipment level makes me nostalgic about entry level cars in the 70’s in my native Denmark. A base radio was a luxury option. The Perodua even has electric windows, I guess they simply no longer have the erstwhile cheaper manual roll down parts in stock!!

[@YSKhongDriving]

Good comments, and interesting too. I also like driving a slow car fast, but could do with a bit more; it would be safer because overtaking can be done a lot faster. You basically need only the front 2 airbags, a good set of brakes, and good tyres. Everything else is secondary, including the electric windows. I do think the wind up glass may not have any cost savings anymore.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hi Joe - a long time ago, I realized that there is no such thing as a bad car. A lot of people put a lot of effort to come out with each and every car. Sometimes you get cars that are influenced by one or more strong personalities, and these turn out either very brilliant or become not so popular. I used to think the Berlingo was ugly, but tradesmen in France love it. Same with the Kangoo, but two of my friends have it and love it. It is usually a question of whether your needs are satisfied by the car you are buying. In the case of the Axia, I suspect the main motivator would be the price and value packaging. Who wouldn't want a car that can do zero to hundred in 5 seconds? Reality comes in when it comes down to the size of one's pocket. That is why I respect all cars, and evaluate them fairly. Anyway, thank you for being on our channel, and I have seen your comments on a regular basis.
