2022 Subaru XV GT-Edition, With EyeSight Review - The Perfect Compromise?

[@nurawis1]

A good presenter. For me, nobody can beat him in Malaysia. Clear information delivered in his speeches.

[@cybersystems2223]

Truly did.

[@yantihani]

I survived the whole video because you speak excellent English!. And also had test drive this, I enjoyed it very much. Nahh..I won't pick HRV over XV. In terms of driving experience and passengers comfort, XV wins by a long mile.

[@glenoventuresx7206]

Superb English man. You can give our Ministers some tuition.

[@izhamsaad]

reviewer get me astonished more than the car, v well done, bravo i do own subaru xv myself but what most disappointing is after sales price tag for parts although not as expensive as VW but IMO still overprice compared to OEM parts... Subaru/Motor Image do provide up to 60k totally free labor & parts maintenance & up to 100k free labor which is good overall .. but I wish they would listen and appreciate their customer more by providing various options for parts replacement since free maintenance exclude some parts ; eg cabin filter ... My personal experience - No issue with the car so far since 2019... ; quite reliable and good driving experience .. although some user reported aircond issue after 3-4 years.. is it covered by warranty up to 5 years? Idk it's grey area and not really clear... my advise to potential buyer --- dont listen to marketing terms ' bumper to bumper ' warranty coverage for 5 years.. most probably it's a lie .. I feel cheated by SA once I got the booklet detailing all warranty terms not as verbally described... 5 years waranty may not including all parts unless it's stated in the subaru booklet. ask them to show you what's written, else walk away - unless you agreed with the terms! (probably it's same case for any other brand not just subaru...)

[@orekampung]

I thought it was free all the way till 5 years. We just send our car and do the services with no payment at all. So the reality is not ,am I right?

[@stevent1565]

This is one of the best car reviews i hv seen in malaysian car reviews. Keep it up.

[@kokielarajagopal4500]

I agree. Perfect English. 👏

[@tanbenghooi86]

well, i survived the entire 22 min video 🤣 as usual, chrisp pronounciation, solid presentation and useful information !

[@Ray-b7m]

Very impressive reviewer, very clear and informative, in fact imo one of the best channels. I subscribed immediately.

[@robertsmuggles6871]

"Subaru is a niche player in the UK. Total registrations in 2019 amounted to around 1,500. Not per model - that’s the entire Subaru range. Which means the Subaru XV is unlikely to appear on a UK road. XV deserves better, because in its current guise, it is one of the most underrated and underappreciated cars you can buy". [Top UK motoring journalist] I have an old BMW X1 - when the time comes, the XV is the next one for me.

[@seanfiz]

Enjoyed watch the review. Very astonishing english review. Like im watching top gear

[@sayhockkong3878]

Excellent presentation 👏, one of the better car reviews

[@chucksabino5735]

Excellent review!!!!!, really nice vehicle excellent choice for many.

[@martinthailand]

Nice video, bro. I've just purchased an XV

[@shahrulnizam7891]

First time seeing this video on this channel...1 thing amaze me is the english by the presenter...just nice

[@MsSarinah]

I survived the whole presentation too. And like the content of the review and your honest opinion on pros and cos of XV Subaru.

[@isaac4309]

Thank you. Learned much.

[@AbdulRahman-ur9bw]

Excellent review. Thanks.

[@AbdulRahman-ur9bw]

Need your opinion. Between the following makes, which would be the best all round SUV to buy? Subaru XV Proton X70 Mazda CX5 Honda CRV Honda HRV Toyota Fortuner Others? Thanks.

[@JahirulHoque]

Watching from Bangladesh 🇧🇩. Very nice delivery in English i must say. XV is my all time favorite. We don't have the Eye Sight here though!

[@MalaysianMotoring]

Thanks for the support! Much love from Malaysia, and we hope you get EyeSight soon!

[@tsaklemon]

Very good review. I'm thinking to buy a new car. This is one of my option.

[@jeffreydancinger2875]

Looks a lot nicer than my 2014 Manual Transmission very basic Crosstrek XV. Mine is black with tan cloth seats, basic radio, seat warmers hands free phone capable, mirror compas electric mirrors, manual adjust seats. It's my tow behind work car for RV Motorhome transport. I bought it for the all wheel drive feature and the light weight. The 2022 your showing looks really nice. Love the interior.

[@hasdean]

This is my 2nd video. Then I clicked the button. Tq.

[@vijaykhandhar7289]

I never even considered Subarus before because their interiors were just not appealing. However, this is not bad except for the very dated looking gauge cluster and also I believe no rear AC vents?

[@tuanhamidon6522]

Great content. Keep up the good work 😃

[@LL-nw6cd]

Great video! This vehicle has a really smooth engine, which I love. Wish it's not CVT. And it's one of the best looking crossover.

[@edwinweb]

Hi..may I know what is the issue with the cvt engine ? Surely this cvt must be tuned correctly for this engine ?

[@kickstand801]

Shoutout from Trinidad and Tobago. Love the car, love the review and love the accent!!!

[@Ali_Ogla]

Thank you 🙏

[@RVela-ib6cz]

Subaru xv excellence goes to the comentator well presenting speech.

[@DuaneTanTC]

very good. Sharp and accurate. Its what i'm looking for if were to buy a car. I'm getting an XV Eyesight soon! lol

[@MalaysianMotoring]

That's great to hear! We hope you have an excellent ownership experience.

[@gohweekiat9499]

Hello, firstly amazing reviews you’ve got, a new subscriber here, can i pls get ur take on subaru xv gt vs proton x70 1.5 awd vs proton x70 1.8 premium 🙏🏻

[@oumaniac]

Wow - great reviewer with impeccable English. Greetings from Indonesia, looking for info on the XV.

[@The_Aril]

Great description of the car. Shame they can't put rear Aircond vents

[@fgytujyimolphgrdddas]

Great review bruh, perfect English, loud and clear pronunciation.

[@yeong5152]

Subaru is a good car but Motor Image service is.......

[@cville093]

OMG, I love your voice!! IM From the US 🇺🇸 we don't have the XV. But I love your reviews.

[@MalaysianMotoring]

Don't you guys get the Crosstrek?

[@cville093]

@MalaysianMotoring yes, we do have the Crosstrek

[@nazhafeez1498]

Bro looks like Benjamin Franklin

[@MalaysianMotoring]

And earns the equivalent of about one monthly.

[@MalaysianMotoring]

The Benjamin note, we mean. Not a presidential salary. Far from it...

[@nosferatu3382]

And indeed he may be... reincarnated and all 😀😀😀

[@kfpublic1938]

I like this car, would want to buy one, but one concern - no power boot. Can someone advise whether it is advisable to install an aftermarket power boot? is it safe?

[@MalaysianMotoring]

Anything that tampers with the electrics and electronics will void the warranty. Also the XV is not a particularly tall vehicle. A lack of a power boot is hardly an issue. Anyone can reach the tailgate.

[@dubaid7766]

Priority oilfield ❤ Subaru ❤ safety car ❤ competitive besides Audi Mercedes porche 😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@saraunicorn5085]

Excellent review. I could almost meditate to your measured, impartial and unhurried delivery. I own an XV, love the drive especially on easy off-roads. It is all you've said it is, warts and all😑

[@MalaysianMotoring]

We're glad you enjoyed our content, and hope you'll share it with like minded friends and family! We're surprised you mentioned "warts." We came away from our stint with the XV very impressed, and frankly there's little to dislike. It's about managing expectations - there are competitors that absolutely shine in certain areas, but while the XV doesn't in any particular regard, it's far from dull. We loved it, and recommend it highly.

[@pamelacross7236]

just wondering about the audio system in the vehicle. how would u rate it being an owner of the car model.

Much better review than that Paultan garbage

[@MalaysianMotoring]

We respect and cooperate with all our media colleagues, PaulTan.org included. We exist to provide additional perspective, since vehicle purchases are normally the second largest purchase made by Malaysian consumers (after property). Our perspectives are different from theirs, hence we coexist without issue. 😊

Different style of presentation ..just turn off if you don’t like that person…😂

[@bennetlawan3214]

This is a very nice review. Very good presentation.

[@jasonwong1358]

i think this car is almost C-segment

[@hakimsalic1523]

Make a comparison of that with its higher trim levels or even its other year model.

[@MalaysianMotoring]

This is the highest-trim model. The 2022 XV only comes in 2.0i-P with EyeSight, with the option of the GT-Edition we drove here. It is, obviously, better than previous iterations. It wouldn't make sense to any company if they rolled back gains made with previous models. That kind of goes without saying.

How does the XV fare compared to the current competitors like HRV and Corolla Cross? And is it still a good buy given that a whole new model has been introduced in Japan?

Does it come with manual transmission?

[@MalaysianMotoring]

No.

[@joes7930]

Not that version. You need the base version for manual I thnk

[@MalaysianMotoring]

The Subaru XV is not available with a manual transmission in our market. And we don't give a sod if it may be available in other markets, because that's not what we're here for.

[@balokurd17]

No wireless carplay/android ?

[@MalaysianMotoring]

No. Wired only.

[@rawrengchng]

This feature they need to update..just sat in friend’s XV the other day..suspension and ride is superb, most suitable for our bumpy roads, potholes, plus the thousands of speed humps we encounter monthly .

[@phoonsiewyen4266]

Too bad no rear Aircon and too shallow boot size

[@MalaysianMotoring]

Rear aircond can live. Boot size also okay. Ultimately the question is whether you want practicality or you want adventure. Can't have them both.

[@LimpEminem]

If this has a 6 speed AT.... 👍👍👍👍👍 Cvt.... 🙄

[@MalaysianMotoring]

Drive it first. We say Lineartronic is the best CVT on the market for a reason.

[@nasfiz1620]

Not for heavy foot. Cvt tend to overheated when push hard like genting ride.

[@MalaysianMotoring]

We drove it to Genting. Twice. No issues.
