I own a B8 Passat 2.0 and M4C. This seal driving experience in terms of comfort and solidness are way higher than Passat. When come to power, Seal is almost like the M4C or maybe better. With the price tag of 200K, it is definetly a worth buying car. Well done BYD.

[@ngkwdaniel]

in one of the HK youtuber's video, a comparison was done that the chassis rigidity value is almost the same as Porsche Motorsports Cars, w222 S class, RR Phantom

[@tsumplay3094]

The most important certificate: YS Khong Certified.

[@cubatry2449]

That blue bezza also ahaha

[@aimanfitri0iv]

this is by far the best evs in the segment it's fun to drive as well it drives like a sports sedan 👏

[@5m4llk1ng]

BYD Trec staff are very friendly. I went there 2 times and both times they speak fluent Malay to us. They are also very knowledgeable.

[@ivant13]

Thank you Uncle YS for the once in a lifetime experience! It was such an honour to be one of your victims on your Genting drives 😝 Felt totally safe as your passenger cause I can totally feel that you have full control of the car at all times 👍 Will happily agree to follow you up again if I ever get the chance to 😁

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks Ivan T. You were a good passenger.

[@daryltantan]

Uncle drives up Genting faster than I walk up to my house's upper floor 🥵

[@kevinlai1991]

Damnnn, you have HUGE house

[@daryltantan]

@@kevinlai1991 Nah, just a huge tummy

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha! Either that or you must be geriatric!

[@harvard_lee]

It's a nice car on the road with awesome power! The tires are Continental EcoContact 6 Q. 😂

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha - It did quite well even on these eco tyres - I would really love to try out a set of SC7's - I think it will make a great difference. I am surprised how these eco tires were selected over the UC or SC considering the Seal was slotted to fight the T brand.

[@harvard_lee]

​@YSKhongDriving personally I believe the SC7 is more refined for this car. Again, great review and walk around on the BYD Seal. 🎉

[@chanleechang5733]

The moment you step out of your car, you'd smell the burnt tyre and brake pad smell. Well done and good job. It reminds me of my drive up hill with the Turbo charged Forester ten years ago. Looking forward to driving this car up Getting again!

[@honestjohn6222]

I was hoping for a long time for you to test the Seal And wow it was worth the wait , loved it fantastic , the acceleration of that car is amazing , and the smile on your face says it all , thank you so much , Khong. King of the Mountain

[@YSKhongDriving]

Thanks for your support, such a contrasting comment from the guy who is asking me if I'm for real, amd the other who says the Seal sucks.

[@spongezack92]

I like the cute king's brother little blue. Heng courage. 😂 Another awesome drive by uncle 👍 enjoying the car

[@calvyau]

If everyone realize when YS corner hard enough Gs @ 10:05. The screen went from landscape to portrait. 😂

[@bepis888]

😁😆

[@calebliu7581]

That happens with strong G-force. I wonder if you can lock it?

[@tsumplay3094]

YS fooled the screen with G-Force OMG~~~~~~

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, I didn't realize it at the time, but hmmmmmm!

[@casie8621]

Yeah pls don't do that at public road 😅

[@robertyaaa]

Oh my god, that was crazy fast, only a few supercars can catch up

[@ab-15188]

If I'd have spare cash to spend, I'd buy the top range BYD Seal (500++ HP) over Camry or Accord.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Absolutely.

[@saisai-dn6gv]

One super happy driver with another very calm passenger！

[@ralphzoombeenie2330]

Thanks YS. I have a similar Seal so its great to see its capabilities in the hands of a professional campion. It will give me confidence to use more of the power on challenging roads. So far love the car after just over 1000km, I needed more performance than my ATTO 3 has to offer.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes the Seal is heaps faster than the Atto3: enjoy your driving!

[@Tenhing_Eth]

Tested both variant amazing car and huge value of car , my m5 cost me 800k also slightly miss the test drive haha it’s perfect comfort and balance handling yet most amazing the throttle respond , NA feel instant for Touge Build quality too so comfortable to touch for. A 200k brand new car absolutely worth it

[@YSKhongDriving]

Yes, and the interior still looks and feels like a car and not a handphone.

[@gary6663]

ITS NOT REALLY ABOUT THE TYRES BUT ITS THE MAN HOLDING THE STEERING ! ...quotedahills

[@YSKhongDriving]

We just have to adapt to new things and trends.

[@CheeSiongYee]

YS is so enjoying driving this car 🎉

[@vijanth]

Nice driving of EV car - BYD Seal - like a sport car indeed. But you have a Red Peugeot giving a good chase at the back. Probably uncle YS friend wanted to say hello.

[@qiyang3129]

It's his friend lol, he mentioned it a few times

[@YSKhongDriving]

He is one of my friends following with a camera.

[@fvvf9569]

With 3 heavy men inside ! .....OMG🎉❤

Great drive Uncle YS. The car is a beast but you control it so well.

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@haroldlbc]

wow! Only uncle can do this

[@user-hg9ij7rf1f]

BYD is the world's best EV car

[@HotRod16]

What an amazing car it is. Fun factor seems above bar. Passing the hump and bumps seems very smooth compare some others car Mr Khong driven. I bet you gain more range when descending and reaching Gombak toll.

[@YSKhongDriving]

It is!

[@ryanho8718]

when the blue bezze is showing it speed infront uncle. i knew something gonna happend already. haha

[@remusshai4643]

Did anyone notice that at 10:03, the screen display changed? I speculate it might be due to the gyroscope readings during shape tuning. :)

[@absolute_abundance]

Wow ! Crazy bezza is the current most notorious car on malaysian road !

[@famsweeking8792]

uncle kong, you should upgrade to this car. Look good on you

It’s funny how the drivers don’t know how to keep in lane, but are so polite to let you pass at the same time. I’m guessing this U.S. Malaysia? Must be a wonderful country to drive😂😂

[@YSKhongDriving]

Exactly!

[@markdavid1760]

Seems like changing lane without signalling is normal there…but I can adapt to this for sure 👍👍

Haha Ivan looks very nervous and stiff sitting there.

Uncle what is the battery consumption after reach top hill?

[@ikramzilfikar2929]

This is the most tempting EV so far but still awaiting for charging network to be widely available especially to east coast malaysia.

[@YSKhongDriving]

All you need is a home wall charger

waiting for ionic n to be available in malaysia. want to see that simulation gear works

[@jeffrey2271]

Uncle shows that EV car can be fun driving fast! The Bezza saw who's behind the wheel, give way 😅

[@YSKhongDriving]

I think he was quite busy at that time.....

[@justintan94]

Hey uncle, did the front bumper hit any humps on the way down because of the low ground clearance?

[@YSKhongDriving]

Not at all. And yes, we did tue normal slowing down, no need to zigzag. No problem at all. No part of the body except the tyres touched anything.

[@stefanoceandu]

that peugeot 208 behind are really going fast toooo wowwww

Yup, we call it 'the pesky red car'.

Just worried the Quality. But the design is stunnign !

[@netzcd]

Need to be tuned by YSK Driving.

[@robertsinke9211]

With the ground clearance ground clearance of 10 cm and the battery pack that is close to the road, no surprise, it drives solid. But what about pothole and a bit flooded roads?

[@YSKhongDriving]

If your driving area has floods and potholes, please buy a truck. However, you still need to be careful because even trucks have a maximum wading depth.

[@robertsinke9211]

@YSKhongDriving I am looking forward to your test of the Honda CRV Hybrid fwd.

[@kenloh529]

Can’t wait xiaomi su7 come to Malaysia and Let Uncle test it out ❤

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, looking forward to it.

[@john_barnett]

I think you should have mounted the forward facing camera down a little to clear the rear view mirror

[@YSKhongDriving]

Agreed.

[@czlee88]

How much battery left going back to gombak toll?

[@YSKhongDriving]

About 56 percent. There was plenty of regen, and we drove at normal speed.

[@rmdjapri]

uncle, do you feel a little bit off with tilt angle of the steering wheel? I think it need to be lower so the steering wheel facing straight to our body.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, I just get into the most comfortable position - and it is not essential for the steering to be perpendicular to the body.

[@firdaus0hsem]

Uncle what about the back passenger seat? Does it feel comfortable? Since i want use it as family car in the future😊

[@YSKhongDriving]

It is quite comfortable. We did a walkaround video during launch - you can watch that

It wasn't scary at all, according to my passenger.

Uncle Khong, how would you compare the experience with the Tesla M3? I have the LR and tbh am quite disappointed with the way it turns. Straight line no complains of course. Would like hear your comparison with this Seal pls 🙏

[@user-cj9kb9rt7f]

驾驶感受不如特斯拉，所有的豪华配置都是有成本的，不可能所有地方都比特斯拉好。如果追求驾驶感受可以考虑zeekr ，可能也快到马来西亚了，但是价格会更高

[@YSKhongDriving]

I think the ITAC feature works to the Seal's advantage in the corner. I would change the Seal's tyres to something better and this will make a huge difference.

Good evening uncle Khong, I've just seen the launch of BYD seal in India yesterday, saw that in showroom & loved it so much, in fact going mad about buying it ASAP. What's your take on it??? Should I go ahead or wait for something else

Looked at the price of the Seal in India.. way too overpriced there..

Much appreciated

Don't get surprised. Im not sure about BYD electric cars, but when I mentioned about BYD brand to my colleague from Algeria, right away, they told me it's a shit car. Apparently, they sold a lot of BYD F0 in north africa, which is a really shitty car
